Movin' In.....To my NEW to me Crimson MALDEN Pocket Filofax....!

Greetings Junk Peeps & Filo Friends....!!

I hope this post finds your week treating you kindly....!

I've been on an organisational spree of late....Both my business & personal life remind me of a pair of well worn undies with the elastic gone....Not pretty which ever way you look at it....So....with this firmly in mind, when the GORGEOUS Zoe posted a while back that she was clearing out some of her Filofaxes....One of which was a Malden Pocket, I contacted her QUICKSMART....!!

It arrived yesterday all soft & SEXY & I moved right in....The sleeve at the back, which I'll use for $notes & receipts makes it the PERFECT wallet....And....After discovering the DELIGHTFUL enjoyette on YouTube with her FABULOUS Malden Personal setup....I knew EXACTLY how I wanted it to look on the inside....
OK....So bearing in mind it's MORE wallet than planner....
This plastic sleeve will act as a mini dashboard of sorts....Since taking this pic I've popped a small post-it on top where I can jot shopping notes & the sleeve itself will act as a catchall for all those bits of tat I tend to pick up until I have time to file them....
When you turn the plastic sleeve there are two cute little envelopes....Smash Pockets by K&Company though, you can also get similar ones here in Melbourne from Typo....!

As in every wallet/purse I've carried over the last 15 years, there's a pic of Mr SVJ....A bandaid 'cause I'm CLUMSY & some stickers I got from the stoopidmarket....
Turn the flyleaf & you're greeted with this GORGEOUS floral card insert which is actually the card Zoe sent with my Treasure cut down to size with a little washi tape....
TOO cute....!!
I'll fix something to the blank side of the card shortly....An inspirational quote perhaps....!  There's a 12 month calendar for quick reference opposite....
Followed by 2 x plastic credit card sleeves housing my drivers license, credit & debit cards, Medicare & health insurance cards....
This plastic pouch  has 14 cards in it....Gift cards, loyalty cards what have you....So often I've split these up between purses & never seem to have the right one on me when it's needed....
Now they're ALL close by....Waiting to be used....**wink**....!
And last but by no means least is another plastic sleeve with this AWESOME 1960's TAA ticket I found in a book in an Op-Shop....A CLASSIC example of the bits of TAT I mentioned earlier....hahahaha....

I'll add a wad of notepaper between the sleeve of cards & this last plastic sleeve & that will pretty much be that....Until I have the urge....To TWEEK it some more....!!!

Cheers for now,
Tamarah :o)
