I like the balance of color and words and doodles, because myself, I usually don't have too much to say and would not like looking back at walls of text in a sketchbook or journal. So the pop of color is perfect!
Thank you for your kind words. It's so rewarding to find the right balance of images, text and/or art. I know that I have sketchbooks that I didn't consider to be journals, but when I go back through them, I remember when I drew the sketches, what the context was etc.
Can’t wait to watch thisss☺️💕💕💕
I hope you’ll enjoy ☺️
Your videos always bring inspiration. Hope your sweet bags come to fruition. I consider myself a cat collage addict lol.
Awww thank you so much Jane ☺️ That so sweet! I’ll keep you posted!
I loved this flip through ❤ It's my firs year using hobonichi cousin and I am absolutely in love with it! Also documenting old memories regardless the date :)
So happy to hear that you enjoyed the flip Mia! I have so many memories that haven't made it into any journal yet, so there is a whole treasure trove there :)
Thank you Maike! Your way of journaling is so nice! I am trying to incorporate drawings into my journals but can't say it's successful enough. I am afraid of blank sheet when I decide to sit and draw. It always seems that nothing worthy can be done in result! Thank you for the inspiration and good mood after your lovely videos... ❤❤❤
I'm glad to hear that you found the video inspiring. The blank page can be very intimidating that's for sure. I always find it helpful to start small. Find a subject matter that is less intimidating (for example I find objects around the house less intimidating to draw than say humans). Or maybe you'd enjoy a book that shows you how to draw simple doodles step by step... I can recommend 'How To Draw Almost Every Day' by Kamo. Her doodles are simple, yet very charming.
I just found you and omg what a beautiful way to journal!! I love it. New subscriber 🫶🏾🫶🏾
Welcome 🤗 and thank you so much for your kind comment! What journal are you currently keeping?
@MaikeOatley Thank you for replying.
I have a personal and faith journal. I want to start a reading journal . I really really want to incorporate some water painting. I have to buy some supplies for that.
your spreads just gave me so much inspiration, thank you!!
I’m so glad Olivia! Thanks for watching!
I 💗your decoration recipes and seeing what items you pair with your own art. Lately I feel I've over indulged in my magpie/crow tendencies (impulsive purchasing) and brought home whatever shiny treasures have taken my fancy but your videos are encouraging me to have a stationery konmari fest. Ultimately, I'd like to curate my collection & cull the excess or subpar supplies make room for new acquisitions. I also need to resume the habit of creating wishlists to thoughtfully consider the role a new item will play amongst what I already have before rushing to purchase.
There's so much beautiful and cute stationery out there that it is hard to resist sometimes. And I have noticed for myself that it takes a bit of trial and error to figure out what stationery items I actually enjoy using. For example I see so many really cute character-based washi tapes, but in my spreads I prefer using patterned or textured washi tapes. I'd rather have the characters in sticker format. I hope your stationery konmari fest brings you clarity and more enjoyment with the things that actually spark joy :)
Love this so much, Maike!
Can I ask what ink you used to draw the beautiful label on your February 4th page? I need a brown like that in my pen! ❤❤❤
Glad you enjoyed the video, Maggie! The label on my February 4th page is actually from a washi tape by the designer Meow Illustration. That would be a gorgeous fountain pen ink though- I'd buy that in a heart beat.
Ah, thank you so much! I’ll have to check those out. I’m still looking for that perfect brown…my endless quest! 😉 I mostly use Sailor’s Kitsune Biyori but want to try a couple of the browns that I saw you swatch. Thank you for sharing so much with us! ❤
