Step-by-Step Guide to Building Your Sticky-Note Reminder System

1. Determine Your Goal

• Choose your purpose for using the sticky notes.
• Reminders for homework or the school schedule
• Meetings at work or tasks
• Individual objectives or wellness monitors
• Weekly meal preparation
• Habit Tracker 

Advice: Keep it easy. Begin with one or two categories and expand as necessary.

2. Select a Color Scheme

Give each category a different colored sticky note.

For instance:

• Blue = Work
• Pink = Homework or Study
• Green = Self-care 
• Yellow = Meal Plan
• Red = Urgency

This will help you stay focused and quickly see what's coming up.

3. Make a Layout Visual

Choose the location of your sticky-note system now:

• Above your workstation on a wall
• Within your journal or planner
• On a magnetic board or whiteboard
• On your computer or cabinet

Design fun sections or grids using washi tape from Crafty Cuddle.

Make columns like

• "To Do"
• "In Progress"
• "Done"
  

Turn your wall into a colorful task board!

4. Write Smart and Clear Notes

Each sticky note should contain brief, understandable sentences. Each note should only contain one task or idea.

For instance:

• "Math homework - page 42"
• "Drink 2L water"
• "Call Meena at 4 PM"
• "Submit assignment"

Make your notes stand out by using the gel pens from Crafty Cuddle! For added fun, include emojis, stickers, or doodles.

5. Set Reminders by Time or Day

Place notes beneath the days of the week or at particular times.

Make a weekly plan:

• Monday – Zoom call
  
• Tuesday – Gym + Project Review
  
• Wednesday – Creative time
  
  

Additionally, sticky notes can be layered by day or priority, ensuring that the most important ones are always at the top.

6. Make It Interactive

As you complete tasks, move your sticky notes:

• Going from "To Do" to "Done"
• You can also remove them and crumple them, which is really satisfying!
• This visual movement gives your brain a sense of reward and increases productivity.

7. Update Every Week

Review and update your planner or wall at the end of the week.

• Throw away your finished notes.
• Include new ones.
• Restructure the board.
