A4 Weekly Dashboard Planner
$19.00
Some weeks just feel chaotic. Deadlines, meetings, errands, and a hundred little things all scramble together, and by Friday you’re left wondering what actually got done. The 2026 A4 Weekly Dashboard Planner is here to change that — but in a way that doesn’t feel stiff or stressful.
Think of it as your informal weekly space: scribble, jot, brainstorm, doodle, make notes, or just get the random thoughts out of your head. There’s plenty of room for priorities, to-dos, reminders, or even the things you don’t want anyone else to see. And when the week is over? Rip the page off and start fresh. No pressure, no judgment — just a clean slate.
The smooth 150gsm paper feels good under your pen, the minimalist layout keeps you organised without distraction, and the padded cover in white linen or black makes it look effortlessly elegant on your desk. Home, office, or gifting — it works anywhere and makes weekly planning a little more fun.
