Beautiful Baroque :o))

 In some blogs I saw pictures of the Baroque,read about its smooooth and floppy leather...so,I started dreaming of a Baroque...but in what size?
I saw this one on Ebay,contacted the seller,to make me a price...it was a really good price :o))

 Yes,it is the pocketsize ;o) Hard enough,to get one in pocketsize...in personal size it is even harder....

 From my latest scrapbookpaper-haul I made some beautiful deviders...........

 The first has a pocket....then comes my calendar-section...............

 followed by the "to-do-section" ..................................

 And -very important to me - the shopping-list!!!

 An unnamed section ............. :o))

 And my "dit un dat" - section ;o)

The adress/telephone-list

 The zipped pocket holds my coins......

 There`s another pocket under the zipped pocket...+one more underneath this (for cash)

 It holds the nice pen,while my pocket Chameleon is sleeping on the shelf :o)

What a beautiful,yummi little thing!!!!

Why do I collect Filofaxes?

Some people keep asking:"What?You are collecting Filofaxes?For what??"..
My answer:"Because they are a perfect planning-tool for me.And they are beautiful".
My Mom collected vintage coffeepots and nobody asked her"why"...a friend of my Mom is collecting Teddybears,her husband munition from the 2.world war - so what ;o)  ?
I am a single Mom of two little boys,and I am my own boss,as a Physiotherapist.There`s no chance collecting shoes ;o))
Before I started using Filofaxes for work,I tried different calendars in A5 size - but at the end it was pure chaos...I had to lay the recepies of my Patients between the calendar sheets - guess I don`t have to mention,what happend almost every day*Lol*
I used kind of a personal Filofax(another,cheaper brand)for a year,but it had just the week at a page insert,so I used it just for my personal appointments.
When I started working again,when my little boy was 1 year old,I absolutely wanted something that really fits my needs - and I was soooo lucky,when I achieved my first Filofax,the chocolate  A5 Finchley.
When my back/shoulder started to get uncomfortable with the weight of that binder,I started longing for a smaller one.I already wrote about it...BUT that`s where the flame of passion started to burn :o))
I wanted to try,to feel,to move...also different sizes...
On that way I found the Philofaxy blog,countless youtube videos - and I started having fun in my evenings,that I spend alone :o)) my own blog followed,and it is so much fun making photos and videos,writing a bit,making deviders...and watching Ebay*hehe*
Maybe one day I will start collecting shoes...when my boys are a little older and I hopefully don`t have to spent the evenings alone and go out dancing instead ;o)

From Chameleon to Ascot : Moving out,moving in!Many pics!!

Now,that I lived in the beautiful Chameleon for a while,I decided to move the inserts to the Ascot!
Why the heck...?Because I made some overwhelming deviders,that better fit the Ascot!
I gave it a try...and...aaaah,take a look at the result ;o)

 Made some beautiful stardust deviders  : Stardust stack/ DCWV

 just because the paper is a bit too thin,I laminated the deviders.....

 My special pocket-devider :o)) .... beautiful thing!

 Here we come to my diary-section....

 And this section belongs to my sweet little boys!

 This paper I almost refused to cut,because it is so beautiful (top)

The chapters/sections are the same as I had in the beautiful Chameleon....

 This one was loved for a long time by somebody ....

Now,it is loved by me ;o)

Update Personal Malden :o)

Maybe some of you still remember,that I wanted to give the personal size a try,as my work-Filo.
I am used to the A5 size,but it is a heavy load to carry it around!
The personal Malden is the one,that I have chosen for this experiment.
Now,that I have used it for a short time,I can tell that I am missing the SPACE!
It IS working out - but it`s not perfect.Maybe I just have to get used to it - I will keep on trying.
The Malden is ADORABLE!I love the feel of the leather!
The calendar that I have choosen is a pain in the ass :o) .It is a cheaper version - urgs!Every page is getting damaged,because it is...thin?It doesn`t feel thin,but it is def.a less quality.I will never buy that paper again!No,no,no!!
And I don`t like that it has no "half-hour-scedule".But I guess in personal size I have to get "one day per page"for my needs - and I love to see the week at a glance.Hmmmmm...
I think I`ll get me the same calendar from Filofax.
OH,I`ve found some pretty scrapbookpaper - and pimped up my Malden :o)

Now that it is looking soooooo nice I love it even more :o)

BB - Balmorals Baby :o)

LOOOOOOOOOOOK WHAT I HAVE FOUND!!!! :O)

 Let me introduce you to my BABY-BALMORAL :o))

 It has a smaller ringsize,just like the pocket Chameleon .... so I chose this calendar : 1 week per page...

 and I loved that scrapbook-paperpad!NOW it fits a binder ;o)

 It has a very nice pocket for coins *juhuuuuu*!!!

 It is some years old...but just like the A5 - it came to me in unused condition :o)

 ...it also has a "wallet-pocket" !!

 Now ... Mommy & Baby *LOL*

This is a perfect match!!!!! :o))
