monthly

So, guess what! I have a new collection of planners and calendars at
Target stores nationwide. True story. And they're gorgeous.

I worked with Mead—the
company we all know for their awesome back-to-school supplies,
notebooks, office organization, etc. What a great company to work with.
It's business love.

If you’re getting organized for the new year, like I am, go get one
of my new planners. There are a number of different styles and sizes,
including prints and solids:  pocket planners, purse-sized planners,
desk planners, wall calendars. Several of the designs have a full-month
view, followed by a week-by-week view—which is the bomb, as far as
planners go.

(There is one design which makes a fantastic daily journal. I'll take more photos and show you what I mean.)

It’s months of work to put together a new collection like this. And then, BOOM!,
one day the news explodes in a post. Like fireworks.
Come to think of it, I started on this line before I was pregnant with
our baby and the collection hit stores more than a year after he was
born. In effect, birthing a new planner collection takes just about as
long as it does to gestate a baby elephant.

So, next time you’re at Target, go have a look. And while you’re in the
planner section, straighten up the area for me, will you? And tell
someone else in the aisle—“See this gal here, Heather Bailey, I know
her.” Then, go suggest to your friends that they need spiffy new
planners too.

Thanks, friends. I’m getting fantastically caught-up on design work
which means there will be news erupting left and right around here.

To celebrate, let's do another giveaway. I have THREE undated
calendars for three lucky fans. Undated means they can be used for a
different year than 2013. It doesn't mean they're "Undateable." And you can use refills to keep these planners going after the current year is over. Leave a comment to enter the giveaway.

I also have TWO more planners to give away for you Instagrammers. Post about the Target collection or upload this image—AND include the hashtag #heatherbaileyplanner to enter. In fact, you can use any of these photos if you like. See my Instagram page for a glimpse at the planners our Instagram winners will get to choose from (user name: @heatherbailey).

I also have SEVEN of these adorable pocket planners below to hand out. These go to the first seven guests to place an order at www.HeatherBaileyStore.com and SIMPLY ASK for one in their Order Comments at checkout.

Giveaway winners will be determined sometime on Monday, January 28th. Good luck!
