Handwriting Tips for Your Planner 

Oh my gosh! Lol - I couldn't figure out why I wasn't happy with my planning or my planner pages... I'm not big on decoration as I want my planner to be 100% function 1st and foremost but... the cute lettering has done it! I am sooo happy! It's visually appealing/interesting as well as functional! *sigh* I am so happy/in love with my pages now! so thank you!!!! ♡

procrastinating and avoiding taking down the christmas tree and i stumbled upon this. I love it!!!

Just beautiful. For some reason, I seem to be losing my ability to keep my lettering consistent as I get older. It is so frustrating! This was fun to watch.

TOTAL GAME CHANGER!! It seems like such a simple thing, however, I did not think of it!! I'm not great at all that planner decorating jazz but with the lettering it is enough for me!! Thank you for sharing, I will be practicing for sure. Keep the videos coming. Thanks.

handwriting seems like such a simple, self-explanatory thing, but when I starting watching this i was so mesmerized!!! I've never been happy with my handwriting.. this is really inspiring! can't wait to get home and try some of these tips😍😍

Absolutely adore that there are videos on handwriting for your planner!! Thanks for making such a cool video xx

Thank you so much! would love to you do this as you plan or somehow show it. I can't thank you enough for the time you take to share with us.

I love planning and I absolutely love this vid!

Love this! I thought I was the only one who liked to copy other people's handwriting. This is what I was looking for =) Thank you!

i am so fascinated by this video.. :-) So in my school we were taught to write in cursive right from the start so I used to think everyone was as well..

That was so great! I need to start living my own handwriting as much as I love other people's! This was so helpful!

Your hand writing is literally perfect

you write cursive lettering really fast but you pause between your letters, which mesmerizes me for some reason LOL. I have always been obsessed with my handwriting. I write my name a million times....on everything....especially if I'm on hold or if I'm waiting on an appointment or something. Thanks for sharing! :)

your handwriting is like a font and i love it

thank you SOOO much !! i had been struggling with my hand lettering and this like really helped me get a grip on it. 🙌🙌🙌

There's something so satisfying about watching nice handwriting

Love your handwriting style.....thanks for this video...you have really treated us this week...keep 'em coming!!!

awesome video!!! loved it ♡ you should totally do quotes and cards *-*

AWESOME video. LOVE this! Thank you so much!!

I would love for you to do a "faux lettering" tutorial for the Happy Planner. This video was very helpful ... Have a great day:)

You have good taste in pens...One of my favs.

yes me too! i was obsessed with other people handwriting. i have a nice handwriting from practicing because i love other ppls writting

Wow, you really hold your pen higher than I do. I'm going to try that (have the same pen) and see if that helps. I like that you "wung" it!

YAY Rachel! Thanks so much for the great video. Your handwriting is beautiful! Starting to practice now....

Love how you write your "Ss" 😊

Hooray! another video from my favourite you tuber! I love this week :)

Happy Planner tips would be great.

Handwriting goals

I loved this video! I have always been interested in people's hand writing, as you said you were at the beginning of your video. Thanks for sharing :)

Awesome video! Thank u for these great writing tips!👍

This was a very helpful video. I was curious on how people who does their PWM videos learned how to do the different handwriting. I am going to practice on it right now. Thank you so much for sharing. 😊😊😊

Just seeing this & I love it. I hate my hand writing, I'm always in a hurry & it gets very hard to read...even for me I use both cursive and printing when writing which is hard to read.Growing up I too used to practice, I'd write a differnt way in journalling. I would love to get a hard copy of your aphabets and maybe days of the week , months etc. to take with me so I can practice anytime I have a minute. I think this kind of writing is so pretty. I REALLY need to be able to write quickly as my brain has so many things to write down, especially when I'm teaching! I would love to have a certain style and your's is great! Would love to see a video on how you keep your planner ( unless you have and I missed it! I see this has been up awhile) ;-} Thanks

This is an awesome video thank you I just bought my first planner

Thanks for this informative video. You made it simple that I find myself practicing my penmanship while watching this. I have subscribed and bookmarked this for future reference. I think for now, I'll practice and improve on my own penmanship by writing neatly and evenly. Have a great weekend ahead. Hugs!

interesting. I'm just getting into the whole planner thing and I find it all so fascinating

Love your writing! Thanks for sharing:)

Enjoyed video very much! Quite inspiring :)

This was so helpful, thanks!

Great tips and explanations/ examples!! Thank you!!!

I love your videos! I really enjoy your organization and color coding in your planners. If you plan with stamps I would love to see that. I am new to planning and your videos were my firsts to inspire me. It also was nice to see that you were from Louisiana since I am too. I saw BR and was so excited.

I love your cursive! My writing is more rounded so it's hard for me to do the tails/wings :/ I'm having to practice & train my hand to write more like you lol. Thanks for the video!

You have really pretty hands, and of course handwriting. LOVE!

Thank you so much! Your video was very helpful!

Simply gorgeous!

Your handwriting is wonderful! Thanks for the tips....

I'm obsessed with your penmanship 😍

This video was awesome!! I was one of the people that asked for the handwriting video, thanks for making it :D Thaks for sharing all your videos!!!

I loved your handwriting video. I am trying to improve my writing as well as learning new styles. I would love to see another video with more handwriting demos of different styles. This is the first video of yours that I have watched and I am going to watch more. I have subscribed to your channel. Thank you so much for sharing.

This was super helpful! My handwriting is so awful, I wasn't allowed to use a pen in elementary school...I was relegated to a pencil by my teachers (the use of a pen had to be "earned"). I think I will take your tips and keep practicing.

Thanks for sharing! Your voice is so calming btw. Sorry to be weird lol.

I love your video thank you for all the tips

It's interesting how you write "S". From bottom to top. Btw. I love this kinds of videos because my penmanship sucks.

Great video. I learned a lot. Very relaxing to watch

Very nice. Lots of ideas to try out.. Thanks

You make it look so easy! I will be practicing! Thank you for this and I hope you continue to make videos like this one:-)

Omg..i love this handwriting tutorial..

You have the prettiest writing! Thank you so much for this. I'm lost on how to write in my planner, and I don't like my handwriting :( Practice practice practice!

I am now obsessed with writing in my planner 😭😭

Thanks for sharing!

Great video😄😆!!

If you do another handwriting video could you attach links to a download of your handwriting samples? I think that would be really helpful to have something to print and sort of follow as a template! Loved the video, thank you!

Great tips! I sometimes can't even read my own handwriting 😂

Sweet Rach: What a Fabulous and Relaxing Tutorial! :D It was sooo helpfully for me. Wow! :) I'm just Decorating an "Ugly and Boring Planner" to my Mom and this morning I was Stopped without new pretty Ideas... OMG! :( :s Buuut, you Inspired me a Lot with your Gorgeous, Delicate, soo Fancy Style and Good Taste!

would be helpful if you actually went through one of your days with how you set it up and how the different handwriting applies... you mentioned doing it, I was disappointed you didn't add that in there!

Wonderful video! Your writing is spot on! Did you ever open an etsy shop? I'm late to the game here....

You should turn your cursive alphabet into a PDF file so we can all download it and practice!!!! :)

I would love bullet journal, daily

This was super informative, I learned a lot! Your voice is so soothing too, is that weird to say? But thanks for the awesome video :)

+Rachel Dunaway hi I am wondering something. You say emphasise on the down stroke of a letter but what about the a letter you go down on both sides? can I do both down strokes or do I need to do only 1 side always. and if yes is there a rule that says wich side you need to emphasise on ?

Thank you

Thank you. If I wanted you to do planner type thing it would be for my a5 inkwell that is in my Filofax

what Penn do you use. I am looking for a super fine tip.

I was lucky. I went to a parochial grade school where cursive is still taught. I've always been told I write like a nun....which is a HUGE compliment, since all the Sisters at school had BEAUTIFUL penmanship. Also, I was an art major in college and learned calligraphy while in high school. I use calligraphy as headers and on labels in my planners. Yes, it took pratice and now it is like second nature to me.

what pen did you use?

What pen do you use please?

Really nice hand writing! I'm left handed, so my writing looks like a potato.

What kind of pen is that?

Thought I would tell you that your "b" and "f" look the same.

hahahaha... when you say you don't like Q's. I hate Z's. They always throw me. But wouldn't you know it...I named my daughter Elizabeth. (After years of writing her name ........ I STILL hate Z's).
