    I love this! It seems like such a good way to journal without a lot of pressure. And to get to enjoy all those great stickers. :) I love your aesthetic and all the ephemera you pick!

    I really like your journal. The stickers are fun! I started a small 5 year Hobonichi weeks journal in February. I have been keeping up every day, or back peddling a few days and catching up. On the left is where you write and the right is where you put memorabilia. I purchased a Canon Ivy printer and I print two pictures per sheet, so they are pretty small, but excellent for a tiny journal! I love adding stickers and little notes from people as well! I love it!

    I love this! I journaled so much as a kid/teen, but as I've gotten older, I allowed busyness to take over. I've tried it here and there, but never stick with it for whatever reason. I love how simplistic this looks, while still being beautiful and useful! Thanks for the inspiration, Chantel!

    • @ChantelKlassen
      @ChantelKlassen  5 місяців тому

    This is very inspiring! The way you arranged your tape and stickers is so cute. The more I learn about my authors of the year (Jane Austen and C..S. Lewis) the more I realize how much we know of them comes from letters and journals. I’d love to start something like that as a screen free creative outlet. Thank you for sharing! 😄

    I found a similar journal at the dollar tree, but as someone who feels pressured to fill up a page, I think your journal size is so much better! I’m now trying the tiny little composition notebooks and I’m really loving them. Thanks for sharing, I love journal videos! ❤

    I always love the idea of having a journal, but then I'll keep up with it for a few days or weeks, and then forget about it for several months. I'm not sure why, but maybe one day I'll find a way to stick with it.

      Yes, I've been that person before too, started lots of journals, didn't continue . . . This format has been a lot better for me, it's something I get excited to use. Like Carmen commented, I leave mine on my desk by my date stamp so I see it often, that helps me remember.

    I started a reading journal this year and I’ve enjoyed tracking my books and making monthly spreads. I’m bad at habits too, so most of my book spreads are blank. But I love the idea of a small pocket journal. It feels similar to the bullet journal I kept for a few years, but way more manageable. Your approach is charming and so cute.
