Begin 4:
A twelve month planner



The cycles of the moon, brought to life
with poems and artwork







About Begin 4:

This year’s planner is loosely inspired by the moon. The lunar cycle is highlighted each month, alongside a little explanation about each full moon and the stories behind their names and origins.

Each month comes with a to-do list card with a different piece of art or photography that incorporates the moon in some way, and when taken together form twelve ways of looking at the moon.

The poetry and writing extracts in the planner weave in the months themselves, and are revealed through little cut-outs.

Every book is lovingly handmade to order, with customisable colours and start dates.

A5 hardcover, printed on 130gsm Snowdon cartridge paper, each month is curated with seasonal artwork, writing, and poetry.

Features:

  • Extended year view
  • Books/films/music tracking lists

  • Month view
  • Budget Tracker
  • Gantt chart/habit tracker
  • Week view (vertical)
  • Journalling space and prompts
  • Moon phases and UK holidays

+ Monthly to-do list card inserts
