This year has started off really slowly. I don’t think that’s a bad thing per say, but I do think everyone was thinking “a brand new year! Things will change!” and we’ve just been in more lockdowns and such. IDK, it’s just been a long month. I’ve personally been riding the waves of emotions up and down and up and down all month. That always makes room for lots of…

BECOMING: beginning to be
Read moreHey Lovelies. My One Little Word for this year is BECOMING. I have this personal mantra I keep. It’s “a gentle unfurling.” It’s a process of self-discovery I adapted from Susannah Conway’s unraveling practice and made into my own, and I’ve been learning about myself in this way since 2013. Every year I set specific intentions, and each year I choose a word and supporting words that encompass those intentions…

25 books in 2022
Read moreHello lovelies! I’ve yet again set myself a reading goal for the year. Last year I set the exact same goal and managed to read 17 books in all. While I didn’t meet my 25 books in 2021, I did read 17 and that is amazing! I’m quite proud of myself about that, especially seeing as I only read 3 books in 2020. But this year, I really would like…

snippets from my journal 01 printable
Read moreHey lovelies! I want to share a little treat with you all—some lovely collaged snippets from my journal. I made these tags and cards for my personal journal the other day and thought why not scan them in and create a printable from them to share with you all. This won’t be a regular thing, but I’m thinking if I make some fun collaged elements for my journals that I…

unraveling 2022
Read moreHello lovelies! Well, I’m a bit late on sharing my 2022 intentions, but the last few months of 2021 were just so difficult for me that I basically abandoned all will to create any sort of quality content in the capacity that I normally would create and share. But I’m feeling a bit better, my mind is clearer on certain things, and while I don’t think we have any control…

Creating My “Stats” and Intentions Page | journal with me ☆ 59
Read moreHey Lovelies! It’s been a long while since I shared something new. To be honest, I’ve taken a bit of break from creating to share on my Instagram and Youtube platforms. I’ve been going through a few things and it was just becoming so hard to make like I used to. I’m primarily creating things for my Lovely Patrons, a little membership I began in October here on my website.…

halfway through my december journal
Read moreHello lovelies! I just wanted to pop in and share how my December journal is coming along. We’re a little over halfway filled and it’s turning out to look like a very quiet journal—as in not as chunky as I expected. But that could be because my December has been really quiet and low-key. And honestly, I don’t mind it. I’ve been going through a lot internally, so having this…

things i’m loving ✩ 28 | december 2021
Read moreThis December has been a very weird one. Honestly, looking back, this entire year was weird. I was talking to one of my best friends recently and we both agreed that 2021 was A LOT harder than 2020 to deal with. I know a lot of people who found 2020 to be very hard, but for us, this year was the difficult one. So truthfully, I’m glad it’s almost over.…

things i’m loving ✩ 27 | november 2021
Read moreHello lovelies. November was a tough one if I can be totally honest. This month kicked my ass in more ways than one. I ended up consuming A LOT of media in the process of coming to terms with a lot of truths and trying to heal. It’s still rough. My heart is still patchy in places, but thank god for art because I truly use it as a respite…

My Completed Boston Travel Journal
Read moreHey Lovelies. I finally finished my Boston travel journal! I honestly love how this little book turned out even if I wasn’t as artsy in it as I would have liked. I feel like I could have been braver with the supplies I took with me, though honestly, I was only really able to play in the evenings when I was back at my hotel room. I didn’t do very…

things i’m loving ✩ 26 | october 2021
Read moreHello lovelies. I feel like this might be an unpopular opinion, but it feels like October went by rather slowly. I don’t know, I guess I expect time to speed up now that there’s literally only two months left in the year. Two months. I guess a part of me wants it to be 2022 already, I suppose to leave these last two years behind. Not that we know if…

My Boston Travel Journal + Kit
Read moreHey Lovelies. I just wanted to share a look at my new travel journal and kit. I’m taking a very short trip to Boston next month and so naturally I made myself a little A6 travel journal. I’m treating this little trip like an extended artist date and was heavily inspired by Caylee Grey and her recent The Travel Journal series. I normally do A LOT of journaling in my…
