If you’ve been following us on the blog or social media recently then you’ll know that I am a massive stationery fan. Something I always have on the go is a diary but I seem to have had trouble finding the right one for me… until I discovered Mum’s Office.
Although the company is called Mum’s Office, the products available are in no way just aimed at mums and the products don’t say it on them either!
We have the 2017 version of the Mum’s Office diary and I absolutely love it! The diaries come in a whole range of colours and various sizes. I have a champagne colour but the other colours are Sea Green, Orange, French Navy, Pink and Plum. There is really something for everyone.
The diary has two different types of page when opened up. On the left is a week to view diary. Sometimes with diaries I find that there isn’t enough room to write everything in but that’s not the case with this one. Each day has plenty of space to write in appointments and events. My only slight criticism is that Monday has more space than the other days. No idea why though!
On the right are columns. Different sized diaries have different amounts of columns but mine has 4. This is where planning for the whole family comes into play. I use the left hand side of the pages for all of my own appointments and work shifts. I then use the other columns for any classes or activities that Erin does and also some John’s appointments.
What I love the most about this diary is that is allows me to see everything that is going on with my whole family on just one page. I don’t have to colour code anything and I don’t have to have separate diaries for everyone.
The diary has a great elastic loop on the side so you can keep a pen with it all times, it has two ribbon bookmarks, an elastic closure and also a pocket at the back for any receipts etc. I think Mum’s Office have really thought of everything with this one and it is perfect!
I can’t wait for the 2018 diaries to be released in August. I know I’ll be getting another one as soon as they’re released!
Disclaumer: We received a sample of this diary. All opinions are our own.
I like that despite the name the stationary products are aimed at anyone. I like the sound of the plum diary x
The colours are all lovely!
That sounds like a lovely diary and very useful too. I like that there are a range of colours available too and columns for different members of the family x
It’s perfect for us!
This looks great! I no longer have a diary but really need one – we keep forgetting important dates, and my memory isn’t what it used to be!
I’ve been thinking of upgrading my diary so keep everything in one place as I have lists everywhere of my 3 jobs, 3 kids, blog, food etc etc. Plum sounds perfect for me!
You can get a bigger one too with more columns!
I’m getting one of these! Exactly what I’ve been looking for. I don’t get on with phone calendars. They just annoy me! But I haven’t found a good replacement. Thanks!
I’ll be getting one for next year when they’re out!
I like that it has a page for you to document your activities with smaller boxes on the other page for family members
I really love this diary. It works so well for us
