Shape Sticky Notes are elegant and unique – but are you making the most of their potential? We have put together a simple and insightful guide for using your Shape Sticky Notes in a variety of ways so you can maximize your planner’s possibilities!

Shape Sticky Note Examples

Circle Sticky Notes

 

Transferring Tasks

The most well-known use for sticky notes is simply writing tasks. However, sticky notes with convenient shapes, such as HALF STICKY NOTES | GRAPH + MACCHIATO or MOSAIC STICKY NOTES are ideal for transferring tasks while using minimal space. They can be added to items like the KANBAN PLANNER DASHBOARD. Then, move the sticky notes as you start, work on, and complete tasks. Additionally, some of your sticky notes may have action items that need to be transferred to your planner. With the varied shapes provided, you can best fit your notes without taking up too much space. It helps that the shapes provide a sleek, elegant look to elevate your planner spread.

Time Blocking

While using inserts with timetables like the WEEKLY SCHEDULE PLANNER INSERTS, reach for your DOME STICKY NOTES or ARROW STICKY NOTES to block off your time. Since they are sticky notes, you can write your task or appointment on the note, then place it within the time table. This maximizes the functionality of your planner spread!

Organization + Logging

Use shape stickies to create your own organization system and dividers! Use one sticky note as your “key”, and others to section off your planner. Additionally, you can use similar color palettes with the SPOTLIGHT PAGE FLAG SET to create a key whether you’re annotating a book, creating color-coded sections, organizing notes, or archiving.

Use With Unique Planner Items

Some inserts and dashboards are created with shape sticky notes in mind! Examples include the VISION BOARD PLANNER INSERTS, YOUR MIND BELIEVES PLANNER DASHBOARD, ONE-MINUTE HABITS PLANNER DASHBOARD, and INBOX PLANNER INSERTS | REFRESHED DESIGN. These planning items work best with the CIRCLE STICKY NOTE SET and SHAPE STICKY NOTE SET. Any of the circle sticky notes can be placed within the circular spaces within the inserts and dashboards. They are perfect for logging your reads, outlining projects, and visually organizing your tasks from most important (largest circle stickies) to least (smallest stickies).
