Useful tools.
A more creative life.
Creative Life Systems grew from a simple idea: the everyday details deserve a place of their own.
Whether you’re planning a gathering, keeping favorite recipes, or getting the house ready for a sitter, a thoughtful system can make the next step clearer.
We make practical templates with personality. A little structure that leaves more room for the life you want to live.

A few helpful details.
Are these digital products?
Yes. CLS templates are digital tools and downloads. No physical item is shipped. Check each Etsy listing for the files included.
Do I need special software?
It depends on the template. Some use Google Sheets, some include a spreadsheet workbook, and others use PDF or editable document files. The Etsy listing and included guide explain the requirements.
Where do I buy a template?
Purchases currently happen in the Creative Life Systems Etsy shop. Product details here link to a recorded listing when available, or to the shop to find the product.
What does “Coming soon” mean?
The product package is built, but its launch is still pending in the catalog snapshot. “On the drawing board” means a product idea, with final scope and timing still to be decided.
