How to Create Your Own Printables
UPDATE: This workshop has already occurred, but you can sign up to be notified when I will be running it again.
It’s definitely no secret that am completely obsessed with pretty organizing and homemaking printables! I’ve created literally over a thousand printable pages in the past couple years. Every year, I design a new version of the Sweet Life Printable Planner, and I’ve run two 31 day free printable series so far where I pick a new printable to design every single day for 31 days. I love helping people stay inspired and organized with pretty printables!
Now I'd love to show exactly how to create pretty printables for yourself! Readers often ask me for advice about how to create printables for themselves or want me to customize a printable just for them, but unfortunately there's just not enough hours in the day to do that. I really want each of you to be equipped to create a printable that’s just EXACTLY what you want, but it’s just too much information for one e-mail or even a long blog post.
I'd like to host a webinar to show you how to create a pretty printable from start to finish using software that many of you already have. In the webinar, I’ll:
- Walk you through on video how to create a printable from start to finish using Excel (you can download a 30 day free trial if you don’t already have the software)
- Show you my favorite fonts and font combos
- Share where I like to get pretty fonts for free (including commercial use fonts)
- Share my favorite places for graphics to include in my printables
- Share my favorite color combos
- Include a basic daily planning page template for you to use as a starting point to quickly customize for yourself
- Share which fonts and colors I used in the Serenity Edition of the Sweet Life Planner
- Send you a video recording of the webinar so you can refer back to it at any time or view it if you didn’t attend live
- Include a Q&A session so you can ask questions about creating your own printables

Laura,
This is an awesome site. I am a full-time working single mom (training director for a large state gov’t agency) of 2 year old Tyler and 2 week old Jackson, who is the 3rd foster child I have mothered since 2013. I love to plan, and I love cool pens and paper. So far, 2 year old “Ty” loves cools pens and paper too! Thanks for sharing your talents!

Hi! This looks interesting, but I was wondering about the pricing – if one watches live it costs $25, but if you just want the recording it’s $19 – is this correct? My question would then be why would one choose to watch live? (It seems you always need to ‘go back’ to pick up what you may have forgotten, or to get clarification on certain points… so to have the recording would be all one would need, I’m thinking.)
Am I missing something?
LauraJane Says
Post authorSorry, that was just a typo. I have corrected it. It’s $25, and that includes attending live and the recording.
Betsy Says
I signed up for the webinar, but I know I won’t be able to attend. I’ll be at work. When will the link for the recorded version be sent out? Thanks! Very excited about this!!
LauraJane Says
Post authorThe recorded version should be sent about 6 hours after the webinar.
Jennifer Says
Thank You so much for doing this webinar. I work night shift and I have never been able to have a planner that truly works for my needs. I am looking forward to learning how to create my own and all the other valuable information you will be sharing in the video.

Hi there
I really like the sound of this, however would be looking at doing it later in the year – will you run it again, or will it be available after the live event?
LauraJane Says
Post authorEveryone who signs up will get the recording of it. I don’t have any definite plans to run it again.
Tamre Says
Hi, I don’t have excel but I do have open office. Compatible? or comparable or have you worked with open office before? Just wonder as I have not worked with MS since it went to a subscription service.
Thank You for your time.
LauraJane Says
Post authorI haven’t worked much with Open Office, so I can’t say for sure.
Megan Says
Thinking about signing up for the webinar. What software is required to create the printables?
LauraJane Says
Post authorYou need Microsoft Excel.
Gretta Says
Can we order the recording any time ?
LauraJane Says
Post authorYou would need to order before the webinar begins.

Hello, I’m excited about you sharing the information. I am wondering is this the same info you provided earlier this year to members that purchased the home bundle package. I was unable to attend that webinar and had a hard time getting the recording up. It may have been my human era. I was so busy that week that I may have missed the deadline for it as well. Just wanted to know if it was the same information or not. Love your products and the helpfully newsletters.
LauraJane Says
Post authorYes, it is the same information. If you got that webinar, e-mail iheartplanners@gmail.com and I can send you the replay again.
Carri Says
Thanks so much for offering this. I LOVE using a “day-timer” for all my organizing but can never find all that I need. I might fight a few items I like, but they never fit 100% for what I need. I homeschool and I want something to organize that, and my daily life. That is almost impossible to find. I am excited to learn what you have to teach! I won’t be able to attend because it’s my man’s birthday but I look forward to the webinar. Thanks!
Kat Says
Laura, I was wondering if you might offer the recording after the fact. I could never get the site to load on my phone so missed out on ordering early. Dang it!

Hi, I purchased the webinar, couldn’t attend, but didn’t get a link for the recording. Can you check?
LauraJane Says
Post authorIt was sent shortly after the webinar. If you didn’t get it, send an e-mail to iheartplanners@gmail.com
Alissa Says
I’d love to watch your video. What I really want to learn is how to make my files editable if I choose to sell them or put them as freebies on my site. Do you cover this in your course?
Thank you!
LauraJane Says
Post authorI don’t cover making files editable.
Dancia Says
Hi is it too late to get the how to video for 25 dollars?
