Notice Life is an Australian-based office stationery company that has created a whole series of large-scale project planning and goal-mapping tools. They sent me a copy of their weekly planning pad, 2012-13 financial year wall calendar and a set of to-do sticky notes.
The financial calendar is designed to align with the Australian fiscal year but as it starts in July, its more than adequate to start those long term planning goals stateside. It clocks in at a whopping 33″ x 23.5″. The months are listed across the top with the days below in long columns. In a small team or office, it would even be great to use to track time-off, holidays and other activities that effect the whole team. It could even be used as a family activity calendar.
The planning pad is a substantial 11.75″ x 16.5″ with 65 heavyweight sheets glue padded on the left edge — more than enough for a whole year with a few extra for mistakes. Along the left side are spaces for tasks for Monday through Sunday, in the center is space for general to-dos, Best of Web and rewards and at the far right is a space for notes. I keep thinking it would make a great desk blotter for an individual or wall-mounted to track activities for a whole team. Since the paper seemed so sturdy, I reached straight for a Sharpie pen and a Le Pen and didn’t even get any show-through on the back. Later, I tested with a Sharpie marker and only got slight show-through on the reverse of the stock but no bleed-through. This is some quality paper!
The to-do stickies have been divided up into areas to list to-do, notes, the owner of the task and the finish date. Its A7-sized, about 2.75″ x 4.25″ and has 50 heavyweight paper sheets.

What can I say, except awesome!
Would LOVE to win these goodies. Just started a new telecommuting job and am trying to organize my desk accordingly!
This stuff looks so cool! I would love to win, as I am about to start my 2nd year of nursing school & have a husband and two little ones to keep organized (along with my own chaos). Thanks for the chance to win!
This line looks great, and just what my partner and I need to keep track of our shared projects, not to mention our shared household tasks. Thanks for the giveaway.
These look wonderful and I am a compulsive planner, so these look great for people like me. Woo hoo!
We aren’t supplied with much at my job so this would be uber helpful for getting things organized (in our department at least 😉
Thank you for the chance.
I’m a sucker for anything organization related…although, I’ve decided I’m pretty hopelessly unorganized 🙂
I’ve never come up with a better solution than writing things down.
Woo! Thanks guys, this looks awesome.
This looks amazing! Need to get organised….

This takes note-making stationery to a new level. Looks interesting.

This set looks great – I particularly like the weekly planning pad!
I would love to win one of these!
I love anything that can keep me organized. I try to keep track of both of my kids, my husband and myself – including all my work projects.
Thanks for the giveaway.

always a fan of your giveaways, and seeing my hand-drawn computer-paper “calendars” stuck to my wall, i’m reminded of how useful they are, too!
Nice stuff. Some stationary that I know I can use!
These look amazing; would love to try them out.
