In a world of technology and fast-paced lives, it’s nice to hold something beautiful and tactile in our hands.
A Swell Dandy planner is just that. Beautiful. Designed with your life in mind.
There are many beautiful planners available but we have made our Swell Dandy planner different. A planner is as personal as your life so we’ve made our planner completely customisable; you choose how your planner looks and functions.
Our vertical (portrait) planner is bound with discs on the left side. The vertical layout is a week to an opening. There are "notes" and "be creative" boxes that you can customise to suit your busy life.
Our horizontal layout is perfect for our beautiful left handed planner lovelies. It has a week to each opening, with full size boxes for each day of the week. This planner is bound at the top.
Both our vertical and landscape planners have the following pages. Please note, only the vertical planners are shown here, however the horizontal planner has pages aligned in a landscape format.
Our planner is 230 pages. They include the following:
- 220 pages of weekly spreads, todo lists, memory and goal pages
- 13 tab dividers (monthly and notes)
- Back and front cover
- 1 A5 pocket insert
Record all your beautiful memories on your memory pages, and keep them with you all year long. When the year is over, store them to look back on in the future.
Lots of note and grid paper for you to use whenever you like.
The team behind Swell Dandy planners have spent hundreds of hours researching, planning and designing our planner and our modules. We have talked to people obsessed with planning, ensuring we capture everything you need.
We've also talked to experts about the content of our modules to make sure we don't miss anything, from psychologists and life coaches, to real teachers and wedding planners. We want to make sure that you have the information you need to plan your memories.
You can add any modules you need. Perhaps a ‘marriage’ module to make sure your perfect day is perfect, or a ‘pregnancy’ module to plan this special nine months of your life. As each module celebrates and records the important moments in your life, the module then becomes part of the record of your life.
We currently have 25 modules and plan on making more.
Modules are thorough and in-depth, in general they are at least 100 pages and some up to 200. They are the perfect way for you to plan your life in detail, so you don't miss anything. We'll be updating with module details over the coming days, but rest assured, we've thought of everything.
You build your Swell planner yourself, by choosing the colour. Then you choose from a number of beautiful cover and tab designs that compliment your personality and mood. You can change your Swell Dandy planner as the seasons change, or as you change.
You get to choose one of our beautiful cover designs that will be personalised with your name. We can even personalise designs with your own photos which make them just that little bit more special.
All our beautiful Kickstarter backers will receive a limited edition cover and tab divider set with foil embellishments. Choose from one of 12 colour combinations. These designs are beautiful and something to treasure year after year.
We have over 100 tab divider designs available. Please head over to our facebook page to see all of them in their beautiful glory. You'll receive an email at the end of the campaign giving you the option to choose the divider set you want in your Swell Dandy planner.
Each planner comes with 2 A5 sheets of stickers. One sheet for birthdays and the other is left blank, so you can write your own reminders on them.
Please note, the stickers don't have black outlines, this is just to illustrate the cut and number of stickers on each page.
All Kickstarter backers (from Swell Hero or up) will receive these stickers as a special thank you. They're specially designed for our Swell Dandy planners and will set you up, ready to plan.
Swell Dandy planners have an innovative disc system, making it easy to add or remove pages. Expander discs enable your planner to grow and change as you change. Your Swell Dandy planner will become an extension of your life, a place where you keep track of all the things that are important to you.
Planners will ship with 25mm discs. Planners and modules will ship with 38mm or 45mm discs (depending on how many modules are purchased)
Please note, we're still in negotiation with an Australian disc manufacturer and hope to have disc colours very soon.
Our planners are made in Australia, using Australian made materials. We use beautiful quality, high gsm paper, which is absolutely gorgeous to write on. Being environmentally aware and sustainable is important to us and we will always keep ethical practices at the forefront of everything we do.
Due to the amount of positive feedback on our Facebook page, production has already commenced. Shipping will commence late November 2016, ready for you to plan your swell life in 2017. It seems many of you already plan on loving our planners as much as we do.
Swell Dandy Planners; let us help you to plan your beautiful life!

Risks and challenges
We have a tight deliverable time-frame in place with the campaign ending on 31 October 2016. To ensure this goes smoothly, we ask you to respond to any requests for information, including personalisation of your planner and selection of your free module. Any delays in us getting this information can impact the delivery date of your planner.
We've already started to produce sections of the planner in anticipation. We've taken this chance because it's extremely important to us to have your planner by early December 2016 in preparation for your amazing 2017.
