2026 Memory Planner | Week 5

Week 5 in my Archer & Olive B5 undated memory planner. 📝 

Continuing my no-pressure, just-for-fun creative era with stamping for impact & a large title.  When memory planning in a weekly planner, it can sometimes feel like there’s not enough to document day after day. When that happens, try focusing on a single event or telling one story for the week. This time, I highlighted one special moment: a bridal shower my mom and I hosted for my future daughter-in-law.

The large stamped title helps set the focus right away, drawing attention to the main story. I paired a little journaling with lots of decorating to echo the theme and details from the shower.

Nick & I were at Home Depot last week buying paint for the new warehouse we're moving into in a few weeks; I grabbed some paint swatches thinking that would be an easy was to incrorporate some color into my spread.  I used a postage stamp shaped punch to cut out the shape and then stamped postage frames & flowers.

On the right side of the spread, I started in the center and built outward by layering stickers, PET tape, and the “capture every moment” rub-on.

For the thank-you gifts, my friend Lindsay created candles with custom labels for everyone—and she even sent me extra labels for memory keeping. They were perfect for this spread! I also added the heart topper from one of the Mini Bundtlets we had for dessert from Nothing Bundt Cakes.

Between the paint swatches, candle labels, and heart topper, it was a fun way to bring a little “junk journaling” into the layout. I did all of the decorating first, and then added the photos at the end.  

Where memory planning meets junk journaling…and a reminder that there’s no right way to do it. 

✨ You do you!
