If I had to choose just one of my Filofaxes to keep, I'm pretty sure I would choose this A5 Chameleon. Generally, the A5 doesn't leave the house, I have my iCal for that. I usually carry this beauty around the house with me from room to room, wherever I settle down. When I think of something that needs to be put in it, it's nearby for a quick jot.
I love how it feels and I love all the different indexes and papers inside. I seem to find myself fine-tuning it on a regular basis. It's nice to have a one-stop place for my life's answers, telephone numbers, business cards, dates to remember, menus lists, book lists, to-do's, goals, resolutions, etc...it all fits in there. Lots of room to write and keep lists.
I feel better having lots of space to jot a thought down or an idea down for safe keeping and future pondering. My A5 Chameleon helps me do that in a fun and exciting way.
JUST FYI:
I DO wish that Filofax would use better quality paper in their calendars. I will probably find something more durable next year.
Beautiful!! I myself love having everything in my A5, but it's not nearly as stuffed as yours. It looks awesome ! :)
ReplyDeleteLOL, I've actually cleaned it out, just a little, since the photo.
DeleteLove the A5! I have one as at at home organiser with a calendar in that I printed off using Philofaxy's templates; perhaps that could be worth considering? Then you control the quality of paper used?
ReplyDeleteI would love to use some of the print outs on Philofaxy, and I've tried. But I can't seem to print them out nice. There either not dark enough or I can't get the size right. It's very frustrating for me. I sort of gave up on that.
DeleteYeah, I can't print out either but I found that buying a bound A5 diary and hacking it open an dounching is the easiest way to get good paper.
ReplyDeleteDounching??!
DeletePunching.
You're right, that's what I'm finding too. I still love it though.
