Besides the Truly Mom planner, which I’ll get to shortly, the company has a beautiful selection of custom stationary. From dinner invitations to baby announcements to personalized stationary, Truly Mom will help you “tell your story” with a wonderful variety of ribbons, crystals, cardstock, and fonts.

If you’re simply looking for a fun, fabulous, and different way to say thank you then their Thanking Out of the Box set is the way to go. Thanking Out of the Box is one of Truly Mom’s most popular products, and I can see why—literally. I opened the box and found eight different two-layer cards all accented with different ribbon and each with a different way to say thank you. The set also includes eight matching colored envelopes and a white gel pen—I love it when someone thinks of everything!

And speaking of everything, Truly Mom’s planner has pretty much everything I need to stay organized. I love my new Flip Flops and Florals planner! The planner, which is made from Majilite (more costly than leather with unsurpassed durability), has this totally rockin’ tri-fold design so you can open it up to any of the three sections and fold the other two behind. I am totally and completely in love with this feature! I can have my planner open and easily accessible yet it’s not sprawled all over my already cramped desk space.

But the tri-fold design is just the beginning of a long list of fabulous features. This “portable desk on the go” also has a hidden magnet closure, an assortment of truly useful pads (“my day” pad, “a note to” pad, post-it note pad), a pullout calendar, an extra little handy pocket, pen, address booklet, and even a heart paperclip. No wonder this planner’s popularity is steadily growing! I have used one notepad as my ever-expanding grocery list, another for those critical things I have to do, and the “my day” pad puts sanity back into my world on a daily basis. And every time I fold my planner this way or that I think to myself “that is SO cool!” (And yes, I think that every single time).—Emily
