I wanted to share with you today a handy little resource I use to prepare myself for the new year. It is the Unravel Your Year workbook from Susannah Conway. I’ve been filling out this free workbook from her since 2014. It’s become a ritual of sorts, to just sit down, reflect on the year that has passed and meditate on the new year ahead. Working through this workbook helps…

setting up my 2020 junk journal planner
Read moreI wanted to share with you a look into my planner for 2020. If you’ve seen the journals and planners I’m using in 2020, you’ll know that I primarily plan in a monthly calendar. I use a simple Muji notebook that draw in all of my months to plan out my life. I house my little planner in an A6 Foxy Fix traveler’s notebook, which goes with me everywhere. My…

just start playing | journal with me ✩ 36
Read moreI am back with another journal with me in my unraveling journal! I created this spread using my new Harvest Rose printable I have for free in my shop for the month of November. I’m going to be entirely honest here, I have no idea what I’m going to journal on these pages. Even before beginning this spread, I didn’t know what I would write. I just started playing around with…

a reflective hiatus | journal with me ✩ 35
Read moreI am back with another journal with me in my unraveling journal! I created this spread using my new Breath of Autumn printable I have for free in my shop for the month of October, along with some spooky Lace & Whimsy stickers that match my printable perfectly! I wanted to write about my little social media break I took in September and how it prompted me to really reflect…

the importance of creating an introduction page | journal with me ✩ 33
Read moreI don’t know about you, but the first thing I do when I begin a new journal is create an introduction page or spread. I’ve always liked the idea of treating my journals like books that someone later down the road would pick up and open to read. Whether or not that would ever happen, I don’t know, but it’s always nice to think of my journals in that way.…

my artist in bloom journal
Read moreMeet my brand new journal. It’s so cute! I recently sat down to go through Nazy’s–from Amity Bloom–recent ecourse, Artist In Bloom Journal, which I purchased some time ago when she initially released it. I’ve been feeling a bit down and uninspired lately, so I decided to watch through it this past week. After watching through the entire course once, I was so inspired to create my own that I…

graceful garden kit | journal with me ✩ 32
Read moreHello everyone! I’m sharing something that I’m super proud of. I have a brand new digital kit up in my shop and it’s called Graceful Garden. I have been wanting to create a true shabby chic kit in my colors for a while now, but just never got around to it. I don’t know what took my so long to create this kit, but something just came together recently and…

a gentle unfurling | journal with me ✩ 30
Read moreI finally got around to using my new July printable in my journal! I created this spread in my unraveling journal using bits from the printable, as well as leftover pieces from the mini kits I created to match. I used other bits from my stash and even though it looks a bit bare right now–just sharing a photo of the spread without my journaling, in order to keep that…

mid-year reflections | journal with me ✩ 26
Read moreI took a lovely walk to Central Park this past weekend and did a bit of journaling in my unraveling journal, jotting down my mid-year reflections. I actually journaled about a few other things as well, but for the purpose of introducing and sharing this particular journal with me, I primarily journaled on my mid-year reflections. Since it was the first of June, I wanted to get down a few…

another year | journal with me ✩ 24
Read moreI went for a little walk through Central Park this week with the intention of finding inspiration and filming another artist date video. It was an extremely lovely day this past Tuesday, so after stopping off at Muji for a little treat, my brother walked with me through Central Park. I can’t remember if I ever walked the length of the park before, but that day I did. It was…

hello beautiful | journal with me ✩ 22
Read moreHello Beautiful! I’m back sharing another spread in my Unraveling journal. This one is a bit interesting in that I’ve taken something old that I was going to throw away and made it into something new in my journal. Back in 2014, I used to write to an assortment of pen pals all over the world. At this point today, I’ve only managed to keep in contact with one of them, even…

these flowers are for… | journal with me ✩ 21
Read moreI’m back with another spread process in my Unraveling journal. I’ve been enjoying my time working in this journal lately. I’ve definitely been creating very differently–I think–in it too. I’ve limited myself to using only the paper scraps in a small ziplock bag that I have on my desk. A lot of those papers are genuine scraps from other projects that I really would like to use up. Playing in…
