If you love lifestyle planners, but are tired of retrofitting them to Jewish life and holidays, this planner was made for YOU. The Copper Mirror Weekly Planner isn’t a Jewish product pretending to be a planner—it’s a real weekly planner that happens to be Jewish-centered. Get ready for the planner that makes being Jewish just a part of your everyday life — however you practice.

The Problem of Keeping Two Calendars

If you are Jewish, you know the pain points of living a “two-calendar life”.  Gregorian lifestyle planners that mark all the federal and secular holidays, but don’t capture the fullness of the Jewish calendar.  We have to keep two calendars…a “secular” calendar for appointments, vacations, school breaks, birthday tracking, and more, while keeping a Jewish calendar to reference for candlelighting times, holidays, yarzheits, Torah portions, and more.  You’re constantly translating, calculating, writing Jewish life into margins that weren’t designed for it.

Introducing The Copper Mirror Weekly Planner…

…the first planner that treats the Jewish calendar as foundational, for women who are Jewish and living in the secular world.  It integrates your everyday and Jewish life seamlessly in one beautiful, functional tool. Everything you need is here, in one place where you actually plan your life.

  • No more buying a “secular” planner and a separate Jewish calendar.
  • No more writing yourself into someone else’s calendar.
  • No more living a double-calendar life.

One planner. One calendar.

What Makes This Different

  • Hebrew Month Overviews Each month begins with an overview of the Hebrew month’s attributes, helping you mark Rosh Chodesh (the new month/new moon) and understand the spiritual rhythm of the season—if that’s your practice. And if it isn’t, you might find inspiration to start.
  • Gregorian Month At-a-Glance Full monthly calendar spreads showing both the Gregorian and Hebrew calendars side-by-side, so you can see your entire month ahead.
  • Weekly Planning Spreads Each week shows:
    • Where we are in the Torah portion cycle the weekly parsha marked on the monthly overview and weekly spreads
    • All Jewish holidays and observances, major and minor—from Rosh Hashanah to Tu B’Shevat to minor fast days and beyond
    • Space to write in Shabbat times for your location (because Shabbat begins and ends at different times everywhere)
    • Candlelighting prompts for holidays, with the start of those holidays properly noted on the evening before as they fall at sunset (& companion website to easily find this information)
  • Full planning space for your everyday life—work commitments, family schedules, weekly priorities, tasks, appointments, kids’ extracurricular activities, and everything else

Premium Quality Construction

  • Beautiful Monthly Tab Dividers Easily navigate to any month with gorgeous full-color dividers.
    Continuous Coil binding so your planner stays open while you work
  • Premium paper stock that handles fountain pens, markers, gel pens, and all your favorite planning supplies without bleeding through
  • Copper-foil embossed cover in three stunning designs, including a special “Copper Mirror” edition
  • Full-color printing for Hebrew month overviews and dividers

Who This Planner Is For

The Copper Mirror Weekly Planner is designed for a range of Jewish women—cultural, ethnic, secular, Reform, Conservative, wherever you are in relation to your Jewishness. If you:

  • observe Shabbat every week in some way, or mark it when life leaves room for it
  • light holiday or yom tov candles
  • want to plan ahead for family gatherings, seder planning, or school absences for holidays
  • have stepped away from traditional observance, but want to remain connected to the larger rhythm of the Jewish year
  • married a Jewish partner and want to support your life as a Jewish or inter-faith family
    want to incorporate Judaism into your life and need a private place to start

This planner is for you!

You deserve a planner that treats the Jewish calendar as an essential part of YOU, not an afterthought where you have to write yourself in. This planner makes Judaism simply a part of your daily routine.

Copper Mirror Press
IL, USA

I'm Micheline, founder of Copper Mirror Press. I'm a Jewish woman, wife, mom to five kids (three kids, two stepkids, three dogs, and a bird), and a lifelong lifestyle paper planner enthusiast with over 25 years of experience in marketing, branding, and online community building.-- Every year I go through the same ritual: I buy a beautiful new planner to organize appointments, family life, school breaks, and holidays—and then I spend hours manually writing in all our Jewish observances. Holidays, yartzheit dates, making sure everything is marked correctly (starting the night before, not just the first day). I'm constantly translating between my paper planner and a separate Jewish calendar. It feels like my Jewish identity is invisible to the world. I got tired of writing myself into planners that weren't made for me, so I decided to create my own. The Copper Mirror Weekly Planner is the first product from Copper Mirror Press, a Jewish publishing company creating resources for women like me who live busy secular lives but happen to be Jewish. Your support makes this launch possible and provides proof of concept that this underserved demographic of Jewish women deserves access to premium tools designed specifically for how we live—while keeping costs reasonable. -- I'm working to create the practical and spiritual resources I wish existed for myself, and make them available for all of us.
