I have finally gotten round to doing alittle post on my ulysse! I've had it since the summer and never really did anything with it, it just sat in a box felling very unloved!! I decided that I'd like to give it ago as a planner for 2016 so I ordered an A6 diary from paperchase
Now, you will need an official Hermès refill as it has a ruler like piece of plastic attached that has poppers, of which will need to be snapped to the leather to keep the insert in place. I just pulled the spiral open ever so slightly to get it out and added it to my paperchase diary. I also made some dividers, I put the first one in to separate the diary from the note pages I wanted to add. Then I made my own notepaper. I did buy a lined paper A6 notebook, also from paperchase but it was slightly smaller than the diary so if this is something you're thinking of doing, making your own is a better idea 😊 So. I downloaded a lined paper template then put it into the designs by Rhonna app and added some pretty images. They came out perfectly and I'm so pleased! After putting the note pages in I added another divider that matches the capucine colour just lovely 😍
The paperchase diary has a plastic pocket included with it so in that, I keep stickers, page flags, appointment cards and some project life cards.
I also added a pen loop because the ulysse doesn't have one.
I'll add some pictures of what I've done.

I wanted to try it out for a couple of weeks so I could see if I like it and I have to say, I'm really enjoying it.
I hope it all made sense?! It really is a lovely planner made even better with a "cheap" paperchase diary! I'd never buy the Hermès insert, it doesn't come dated and it costs a small fortune!! This is a lovely replacement for that 😊
Whether I stay in this or my Filofax is yet to be seen, you know me!
Anyway, it's coffee time!!
Over and out
