Hi! What leather and color is your plotter? Thank you!!!
OF COURSE I WANNA SEE YOUR INK SWATCHING SYSTEMS. MY GOODNESS. THAT WOULD BE AMAZING!!! *ahem* please.
p.s bloopers at the end made my day HAHAHAH
great ideas!
I also found the Hong Dian one very scratchy. I used a very fine nail file to file the top off the nib. You know the files with the 3 steps (shape/smoothe/shine). It worked for mee. Less scratchy but the nib is extra fine so that is a factor (and i am left handed so EF is not the best for me). I did not try this before but with this price point it was worth it to try
I am new to PET tapes and really love the look and feel of them. I have one roll and have been frustrated with peeling them off until today when I saw your tutorial. Using the pad of my finger works like a charm! Thank you so much for sharing! I can't wait to get more PET tape now.
Ah this is the best comment, I'm so glad that the tip helped you out. Hope it makes you more comfortable in using them. I knew from experience they were hard to peel until I figured the finger trick. Happy PET tape shopping!
Love seeing you work!
Thank you so much for watching as always 💖
That crystal stamp is gorgeous! 😍
And it's interchangeable! I love it so much!
I saw one with the plastic trifold? You have to cut the middle section down and washi tape it together but it acts as a cute cover protector!
I haven’t tried that one yet but it sounds cool! I'll have to check that out, do you have a link to that method? As always thanks for watching and commenting ♥
This is so good! I can’t wait to try out the double craft folder method. Thanks for sharing!
I hope you enjoy it and I'm glad you found it helpful! 😊
Good idea. I use the Lauren Phelps Design in the US « Sleeves » . The sleeves are transparent and made to hold notebooks as your idea.
Ah I did hear about that one too! Unfortunately a little hard to get from all the way here in Australia. Thanks for watching and commenting! ♥
🤯🤯
Hope that is a good reaction hahah. Thanks for watching!
@ yes!!! Totally. Thank u so much for the tips. I can’t wait to try myself!
Fantastic! I can’t wait to buy an additional craft folder and try this method out. I love my TN but haven’t used it last year because I didn’t like the overhang. Your method looks clean, and I’m looking forward to using my TN’s now. Hopefully we’ll see another video soon, I would love to see your best stationery purchases for 2024.
Thanks for watching and commenting! I'm so glad that this video helps you find new ways so you can use your TNs again. Also, you read my mind! The end of year stationery favorites video is filmed and is coming in about a week 😊
Kraft folder method is so cute! Another method i found that works amazingly is dossier cammie's!
The accordion folder method is genius! 🔥 🔥 🔥
I don't know if it came across how surprised I was when it worked so well hehe ♥
These were nice thoughtful gift idea suggestions.
Thank you for watching and commenting! I'm glad you liked the ideas and I hope they are useful 😊
Inspired by your series this last year i just completed my title page for January 2025 in the new Meow Illustraion Journal…..was so much fun! Thank you for this series….hope to see more in the coming year!
That is such a big compliment 😳 I'm so glad that this series is inspiring you to make your own title pages ♥
Just watched several videos and i have a question: I got the Meow Illustration 2025 “Scented Memories” and am I missing something? I am trying to actually smell something…..now my nose is not the best…..but smells not to good to me. What is the thing here?
hahaha that's so cute! i don't think it's scented, I think it's just a concept of her illustration. I hope you're enjoying the planner ♥
@ thank you….thought i was going crazy! Kept sniffing!
Just started the video and noticed your title in beginning is 2023-2024. A year off.? Back to the video to watch the rest!
Wooopsie, thanks for letting me know, you have great attention to detail. I've chopped off the title just so I don't confuse people. Hope you've enjoyed the rest of the video otherwise ♥
I didn't know the Nolty 1180 layout came in a personal ring size like that, how cool! I also love how you plan your goals quarter by quarter. Really enjoyed this video - thank you for sharing.
I also wouldn't know if I didn't search amazon jp for bible inserts 😅 we can't get plotter inserts easily here so I gotta get creative, but I discovered a lot of bindex/nolty inserts that looks unconventional and I'm glad for the discovery. Ever since doing quarterly goals I feel like I am better at actually doing them :) thanks so much for dropping by and watching ♥
What an accomplishment! Beautiful…I can see that your style has changed to the present day…..same in a way but more refined…….both very nice!
Thanks so much Lynn :) Our journaling style always evolves so I'm happy that it comes through the videos. Hope you're having a great week ♥
This is an interesting line up. 😊
Thank you so much for watching and commenting ♥
I love twsbi ecos and trying to colllect all the opaque colors.
I love them too! they come out with so many colours it's so hard not to keep getting when you like the colours haha
What an amazing lineup! I’m still trying to figure out my lineup for next year but I got so many ideas from your video. I might get that Meow Illustration journal, it’s so beautiful.
Yay I’m so glad you found some inspiration! The Meow Illustration journal is so beautiful, this year it's illustration of fruits and flowers and I'm so weak. If you use fountain pen, I really like how it glides on the paper.
Always love to see lineups and how people are using different notebooks. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much for watching and commenting, hope you enjoyed the video. 😊
you make me wanna try take a note a5, so far i have 2 hobonichi weeks for work and media journaling. i've been keeping my eye on take a note slim biweek planner to put in my traveler's notebook for edc but we'll see if i change my mind (like most of us would be in the last weeks of 2024)
If you're on the fence, I have a video that takes you through all the features and why I really like them, if you want a closer look. But be careful cause I think it'll make you want it more, haha. It has a lot of nice little features and the paper is amazing. ruclips.net/video/6xiBH0n3KVg/видео.html
I’ve just purchased, I’m excited to try it out and will definitely update !🤞🏼😄
Yay, thanks so much for purchasing. Hope you find the process of tracking your expenses effortless. Do let me know what you think about it or if there is any questions. 😊
@@marcsmellow Im new to Notion as a whole, but the template was pretty simple to fill out! I love getting formulas pre-filled for me so it’s worth the template purchase if it’s saving me more in the bigger picture <3 I’m excited to use it on the go especially for logging transactions!
Thanks for letting me know :) I'm so glad you're finding them simple to fill out.
What’s your brown A5 cover + cover on cover on the Take a note. Looks amazing
It's an A5 notebook cover from Aliexpress, unfortunately I don't think they sell them anymore since I bought it over 7 years ago.
OMG I'm excited for you to try the Nolty paper! I'm going back to the Nolty 6501 for next year as my memory log, as this year I'm using the Jibun Days B6. Don't get me wrong, I loooooove Kokuyo's THIN PAPER but I realized I'm not built for a daily "dear diary" or morning pages, as what I originally planned the Jibun Days to be, apart from being a memory log. But I'm seriously considering buying one next year just for the paper but with it being expensive (for me) AND having no place in my system, maybe not.... we'll see lol For my daily/weekly (mainly for work) planner, I'm trying the Nolty 2278 next year and the Take A Note B6 for "creative" journaling & a "when-needed dear diary" hahaha I hope that made sense. No A6 size next year for me, w/c is a first since it's my OG planner/journal size. I'm intrigued by the Meow Illustration journal! The paper looks good and the illustrations are sooo pretty! Thank you for sharing! <3
I'm excited to try the Nolty! It's so smooth to touch. I get your attachment with nice paper, not all paper are made equal. That’s an interesting way to use your planners! I like how you have it all thought out. The Meow illustration journal is one of my fave and if you use fountain pen it's even better. Let me know if you do end up getting them 😊
@@marcsmellow exactly, not all paper are made equal! The Jibun Days is going to be in one book next year, instead of 2 like the Hobonichi Avec. It's partly why I'm having a hard time letting it go, too. 😅 Yes, you said in a JWM video that the Meow Illustrations planner is fountain pen ink friendly! I don't use one but whenever someone says that, I get excited coz it's almost always gel pen friendly, too 😁✨ will definitely place it in my to-try planners 😍
Waaaait that layout is perfect for media journaling... I just got a rings too, I might need it. Also those Ghibli journals are EVERYTHING <3
Right? I got them because of the interesting layout, but now I think it would be perfect for media journaling. They come in planner form too if you're more into that. I love the ghibli journal so much, i wish i have a way to use it this year haha.
yayyyy fountain pens!!!
Yayy thanks for watching, hope you enjoyed it 😍
I was in Gucci today and the SA told me they canât often tell the difference between the authentic and kislux 's bags. Surprised to hear that from an SA.
I'm starting to warm up to my Metropolitan, it's so smooth. Thanks for a lovely video!
I’m glad you’re enjoying it! 😊 I'm going to give myself another chance. I didn't like it cause it's a little heavy when I first got it, but I think I am used to heavier pens now.
Omg thank you so much for this video!! So many affordable options. The brush tip pen is soo interesting. I might look into the Jinhao 😍 Update: I bought the Jinhao 82 in transparent hehe. Can't wait!
I’m so glad you found it helpful! I liked the Jinhao 82 so hopefully you'll enjoy them too, let me know if you like it! 😊
Good information. Thanks. ❤️
You're welcome! 😊 thanks for watching!
I'm looking forward to a flip-through of your Ours planner and the Meow Illustrations one! I love vertical weeklies and your journal gives me so much inspiration <3 thank you for sharing this video~ ;")
You’re so sweet, thanks for your kind words. I love vertical weeklies too, this one is such a perfect layout for memory keeping. I don't have an ours planner, but will definitely do a flipthrough of my Meow Illustration planner when I complete it ♥
@@marcsmellow Oh my! I meant a Flip-Through of THIS planner hahaha I'm sorry, I thought your planner was called "Ours planner". Vertical weeklies are my go-to for memory logs <3
Oh this is the thinkingofyou book hehe. I have a flip through from 2022 if you're interested link below :) ruclips.net/video/bPHzhmVzeLE/видео.html
@marcsmellow yesss Thinking of You! Hahaha why did I thought it was thr Ours planner?? Haha my bad. & yes, I've seen your 2022 flip-through & I LOVE IT! ✨
Wow~ ;") Oh I would love to see a real-time play on your writing & the decorating sped up, instead. But this is lovely~ Thank you for sharing your video! <3
Wow that is a new one, I would've thought no one would be interested seeing me write slowly about my day hahaha. Will try that next time, thanks so much for watching and commenting
@marcsmellow I'm usually attracted to pretty & cool deco & colors but I'm always a sucker for beautiful handwriting 😍 it's what gets me to stay on 😁💜
Here I thought my 20 or so pet tape collection was a ton! I have the same feeling towards the camping pet tape, don’t go camping, but I love the tape itself ❤
If you love them and use them, no PET collections is ever excessive. That's what I tell myself anyway hahahah. IKR the tape is a vibe but I don't actually go camping ahhahaa
Yaaaay! It's always a pleasure to watch you decorate your journal spread :) Very inspirational and as always your handwriting is very pretty! Thank you for sharing this video :)
Yay thanks so much for watching them, I'm happy that you find inspiration in them ♥
Wow that paper bubble wrap is pretty interesting though 😂 The "oh no how cute is this size" was so funy hahaha. The green is actually so much nicer than I thought! Love how excited you were for this even though it's not a new planner ❤
Right? it has this really cool texture. Off it went to the pile of stuff I hoard and can't throw away. It's so cute and I immediately was tempted cause I love cute small sizes hence the "oh no" hahahahaha Thanks for watching and commenting! I'm hoping the excitement will stay throughout 2025 too
Picked up my TAN A5 the same day your video came out! It’s my 2025 work planner, and the hardest part is going to be waiting till 2025 to use it. 😅😂
Ah nice! What are you looking to use it for? Such a lovely planner, I like it so much hahahaha. I was also like that last year and I wished it included december pages so I can use it immediately so I get your struggle
@@marcsmellow It'll be for work; I just got a new position as an executive assistant, so there is a lot of stuff I need to keep track of, plus managing an annual project. I went ahead and decorated the December monthly overview but still can't use it without the daily pages lol. Ah sweet sweet torture...🤣
I am thinking about using a budget binder with zipper pockets for storage.
Oh nice, I used an A5 binder for them before with some kpop cards sleeves and that was working well too :)
Love your sharing of the TAN!!!
Thank you so much for watching Theresa, hope you'll enjoy being in a TAN too next year ♥
The way this video is making me mourn my TAN. so happy people out there giving take a note love and appreciation 😭
Then this video has done it's job. ahahaha jkjk. I will give it an extra stroke today for you 😅 come back to us next next yr!
i clicked so fast !!!!
SAMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
haha thank you for watching 😘
Thank you. What does PET stand for? If you said, I apologize.
I believe it stands for Polyethylene tape, which is the name of the material the tapes are made out of :)
@@marcsmellow Thank you!
What size nib are you using in that twsbi? I love the big font size for your title
My TWSBI is an EF nib :)
I have some of these kiss cut tapes and I’ve already used half the roll. So easy and cute!
Right? They are so easy to use! I love them so much. Glad you feel the same!
💖💖💖💖
Congrats on the sponsorship Keep slaying!!
Thank you! Slay all day 💅
Omg the title😂 you're so funny! And yes I've always wanted to put my pendants on my tn...might finally try it. ❤
Haha, glad you liked the title! Hope you get to try putting in pendants, let me know how you go! 😊
