Are you ready to create your planner? To start the New Year with a scrumptious plan to get the housework organised, so you can make time for all the things you would rather be doing?
There are no rules here: simply download the planner pages and create a schedule that is right for you. By all means allow me to guide you, but my life isn’t yours and if you find you can’t fit something in, do it another day, or don’t do it at all. It’s your house and your life.
This isn’t a dictatorship…
As more downloads become available I will post them here, so keep an eye out…
Create your own Brocante Life Book, plan Christmas, set up routines and rituals or live life the BrocanteHome way with my guided workbooks and planners.

Thank you for a wonderful site! I'm just so sad that the downloads on this page don't work… 🙁 Keep up the wonderful work, dear. Blessings to you and yours in the New Year. Suzanna
This is such a lovely web site. It makes me grateful for this chilly dreary Saturday afternoon. I stumbled upon your site because I was searching for inspiration from others on how to get my housework into some sort of a routine. I'm sad, too that your links for the routines don't work. But I've bookmarked your site now & I've had a wonderful time perusing it. Thanks Andrea
Alison, I just stumbled across your site… and I LOVE IT! You Are a KINDRED spirit and keep doing what you are doing! Living aloud and flinging about and being real! It is appreciated! Jenny (Gypsy A, http://www.2gypsies.com)
PLEASE make these links available somewhere! I would love to have them; I have been unable to become a member of the vintage housekeepers circle as well. Do these need to be updated, or are they posted elsewhere? LOVE this site — it keeps me occupied for far too many hours…
