What planner are you using for this April 2026 plan with me?

I’m using my 2026 Hemlock & Oak B5 planner for this monthly set up. I love the B5 size for monthlies because it gives me room to decorate without sacrificing function. It’s a really nice format if you like a clean, structured layout.

Which Coffee Monsterz Co kit did you use for April 2026?

I used The Coffee Monsterz Co “Afternoon Tea” themed monthly stickers. It’s very cozy and fits that soft, comforting vibe I like for spring planning. Monthly kits like this make it so easy to pull a spread together quickly.

How do you start a monthly planner setup with a sticker kit?

I like to place the key foundation stickers first so everything stays straight and balanced. Once the main structure is down, I add in the functional pieces like date markers and reminders. Then I finish with deco so I don’t accidentally cover space I need.

Do you decorate your monthly spread or keep it minimal?

I’m definitely a functional-but-cozy planner. I want it to be practical first, but I also want it to feel cute and inviting when I open it. The monthly kits help me keep that balance without overdoing it.

Can I get a discount on Hemlock & Oak through you?

Yes—my Hemlock & Oak affiliate link is in the description. You can use the code RUTHSARAH for 10% off your order. If you’re trying H&O for the first time, it’s a great way to save a little.

Do you have a Coffee Monsterz Co discount or referral link?

I do—my TCMC referral link is in the description. You’ll get 10% off your first order, and I get potato points as a little thank you. It’s a nice way to support my channel if you’re placing an order anyway.

Where can I see your Coffee Monsterz Co monthly collection haul?

I linked my 2026 Monthly Collection TCMC haul in the description. If you like seeing kits up close before using them, that video is a good companion to this plan with me. It gives you a better idea of what’s in the collection.

About This Video

In this April 2026 plan with me, I’m setting up my Hemlock & Oak B5 planner for the month using The Coffee Monsterz Co “Afternoon Tea” monthly kit. I’m focusing on getting a clean, functional monthly view down first, then layering in the cozy details that make the spread feel like me—soft colours, cute icons, and those little decorative moments that make planning feel like a treat rather than a chore. I also share how I like to approach monthly planning in the H&O B5 format: placing the key stickers first so everything stays aligned, then filling in the practical bits (important dates, reminders, and general structure) before I commit to any chunky deco. If you’re using a monthly kit for the first time, this is a really easy way to avoid overthinking it—start simple, build it up, and let the kit do the heavy lifting. If you want to shop anything I mention, I’ve linked my H&O affiliate (code RUTHSARAH for 10% off) and my TCMC referral link (10% off your first order).
