PLOTTER Mini and Bible Rings | Pueblo and Shrink Leather
I recently got a PLOTTER Pueblo Beige ring binder in Bible size with Refill Memo Pads. So here's an update on my system and how I use the PLOTTER Mini as well. Hopefully this is helpful information in case you’re thinking about getting a PLOTTER.
I used my commission from affiliate sales at Atlas Stationers to purchase the PLOTTER binder - so a huge thanks to anyone who has used my code to save a few dollars!
Do you use a PLOTTER? Let me know in the comments!

The Ferris Wheel Press Pendant Purse unboxing #stationery
Просмотров 1134 месяца назад
Hi friends, in this video I'll give you a closer look at the Ferris Wheel Press Pendant Purse. I was gifted the purse as part of their brand ambassador program but the thoughts expressed are based on my own reactions. Overall, I think it's a well designed purse especially if you're a minimal carrier because of the compact space. I really like that it has 5 elastic bands to hold pens so I could ...

Planners & Journals Chatty Update: Hobonichi, Sterling Ink, Hibino, Plotter
Просмотров 1 тыс.7 месяцев назад
Hi friends, how did your year go with your planners and journals? For me, all I have to say is PLANNER CHAOS. Jan - July went well and then I experimented and while it was fun, I also learned a lot about my style as a planner person. So in this somewhat chatty update (long overdue), I summarize what worked for me, what didn't work, and what changed throughout the year. The notebooks that I used...
The Coolest Nib I Have: Beak Point

Hi friends, in this video I'm excited to show a new custom nib I got: it's called a Beak Point and it was ground by Matthew Chen ( pactagon?hl=en) on an extra fine #6 Jowo steel nib. I used the nib in my fountain pen from Hinze Pen Company (hinzepens.com) - they're based in Texas and I met them at the San Francisco Pen Show this past August. The fountain pen is called "Leonardo Da...

Is the Bible size similar to A6?
Bible size aka Personal size is 3.75” x 6.75” while A6 is 4” x 5.75”. So A6 is slightly wider and shorter than Bible/Personal.
Will the paper handle fountain pen ink? Thank you
Yes, it’s fountain pen friendly paper!
Great ideas on the indexing on the weekly!
This is such an interesting and versatile nib. Do you still enjoy the nib? does it give you hand fatigue to hold in different angles for prolonged writing/drawing sessions?
It’s still one of my go-to nibs and the pen is always inked up! I actually do love it for journaling - the angle that I use for cursive lets me write in a wide line and printing the date at the top of the page gives me a finer line!
@@FromCarola Thanks! I am debating getting an esterbrook with this nib or getting a Naginata togi grind (I am planning to go to SF pen show next month)
inspiring video. thank s for sharing! would you share your source for the kraft paper tabs? thanks so much!
Hi! I think I got the Kraft sticky tabs from Oomomo (here in Canada)…
Thank you for the video! I want to get the Bible size to use as my EDC. I have been testing how I want to set it up in my Holborn. ☺️
That’s a good idea to test set ups! Hope you enjoy when you get it!
@@FromCarola Thanks!
Both planners are beautiful! I love the colors you chose. That blue is stunning and a nice shift from all the neutrals you typically see, especially with the gold edges! I haven’t jumped into getting a Plotter yet because I do have the Filofax Lockwood personal slim with real narrow rings and also I have the pocket size slim. I think the ring size in the Filofax slim may be 11 or 13 mm. But I am very curious about some of the Plotter inserts and that leather looks real nice. I definitely see one of these in my future! Thanks for the inspiration!
I’m glad you like the blue too - it definitely stands out! Filofax is a great ring system and I like that you can use their personal inserts in a Plotter Bible 😊
Beautiful! 😍
Beautiful❤
Thank you! 💕
I have so many ink colors I am really inspired by your fp ink painting. I’m trying to figure out how much ink you put in each little container Thanks Beth
Aw thanks Beth! With inks, I only need a 2-3 of drops to paint with. A pipette/eye dropper works well. If you’re using a wet brush, it will naturally add a bit of water to the ink too 👍🏽 happy painting!
i wish they would sell pumchers with smaller holes like on the papers themselves
I wish too!
Great ideas - thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching! 💕
I love this!
Nice demonstration thank you :)
I have this organizer and I love it so much.
So satisfying 😍
I actually felt like I accomplished something 🤭
This looks great. I need to get.
Have you done a comparison of tombows and sailor shikiori brush pens?
@@tcconnection I haven’t but I’ll put it on my list to do! Thanks for the suggestion 👍🏽
I watched a ton of techo kaigi's at the start of the year and yours really stood out to me! Thanks for this quarterly update! Very inspiring in terms of your creativity, planning style, and consistency! ❤
Aw thanks for the kind words and for watching! I’m so glad that my lineup sparked interest 🫶🏽
I need this organizer...... 😮
Love your plotters. I love mine too. There’s actually a great hole punch on Amazon that works for plotter and makes smaller holes so it’s a better fit for plotter. It makes less extra page on the left of the holes so pages move smoother and it makes smaller holes.
Which punch is it? I would love to know! Thanks!
Ooh I would love smaller holes - would you be able to share the name of the hole punch? Also, now I’m going to be watching all your videos about your rings setup for inspiration! 💕
@justScribble Please share the brand hole punch that you reference here for Plotter.
Love your plotters, Carola! The dated inserts from Plotter are great! My favorite is the monthly. There's a lot of room for week days. I had a bit of a journey to find my way with the weekly because I was used to other layouts, but I am super happy with it now! Plus the paper is so great and works lovely with fountain pens too. I also like the cream paper from Filofax, very smooth pair with gel pens imo. Haven't loved with fountain pens as much. I am excited to see how you like them and what you decide! The sticky pocket is such a great idea! Will dig into my TN box and hope to find one😆 thanks for sharing, friend!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, Cecilia! I love your videos about your PLOTTER uses and definitely used them as inspiration! I agree about cream paper being so nice (I like the Filofax inserts but will probably go with PLOTTER diary refills for 2025). I’m excited for where my lineup is heading!
Hi where did you get your Tombow organizer from? I love it
Hi! If you're in US/Can, you can find the "Marker Desktop Organizer" on the Tombow website at TombowUSA.com (if you want to save 15%, feel free to use my code CAROLA)
@@FromCarola thank you
So nice 👍 😊
Do you ever use watercolor paper for this or just stationery? Thanks. This is beautiful!
Thanks! Yes I have used watercolour paper for this as well! I just don’t have a dedicated watercolour sketchbook…
Does it give feedback while making upstrokes?
Not enough for me to notice…
Really helpful review, thank you!
I’m glad it helped! Thanks for watching 💕
Did you so another?? Or is this the same one you shared in Q1? So curious...
It’s the same one from my Planner update video! 🙌🏽
Would you buy it if you didn't get it for free? Just seems pricey...
For this price point, I would definitely watch more videos on how people are using it and try and feel it in person before I’d buy it… I haven’t purchased a leather purse in years but I would say this is a luxury item for those who carry minimal items and want pens to be stored safely within. 💕
Absolutely loved seeing this!!!!
Yay, thanks Hanna! 💕
Love your artwork! Really beautiful!
Aw thank you!! 😊💕
I really enjoyed this video and got some inspiration to start my journal. Thank you.
Thanks for watching! I’m so glad it inspired you - I was inspired to start this journal by someone else, so that’s awesome! 🙌🏽
I love your idea! As a lover of fp inks, watercolor, journals, simple drawing,pens etc, I’m just loving this idea! Thanks for sharing!
I’m so happy that you like it! I got the inspiration to use a planner for an ink journal from someone else but I’m loving the setup I did 💕🙌🏽
I have multiple Tombow packs, but I've never gotten a blending palette with them. I haven't seen one in the stores here for some reason.
The blending palette sometimes come in special kits such as the “Watercolor set”. You can also buy them separately ( www.tombowusa.com/blending-palette.html )but if you don’t have one, a simple laminated sheet does the same trick. Hope that helps!
🌺😊
What are you using for a hole punch? I just bought the mini 5 and am excited to get it setup. I am assuming the holes are the same size on the mini and mini 5 but I could be wrong.
I’m sure there are other options out there but I used a regular handheld punch - the holes are definitely bigger but it’s not something that bothers me.
very simple and beautiful, i really want to learn more of this, what kind of style is this called?
Thank you! I post more content like this on my IG (fromcarola). I would call this style freehand loose abstract floral painting if that helps!
That’s a great way to use the 5 year journal. I’ll pick mine back up for little joys throughout the day.❤
I’m so glad that it resonates with you too! I found that a general gratitude journal became too big of a task but accounting for just a few “little joys” in a day is an easy reflection 🙌🏽
I came across your video and I put it on... and then I saw a cover of mine! haha :D what a lovely surprise. Great video Carola, love your system! 😁
Haha! I can’t believe how stretchy and lovely the Weeks TN cover is - thanks for making such beautiful pieces, Marija 😍
Beautiful cover that u have ur weeks stored in, what shop is that from ?
It’s from BujoPlanner (she’s very active on IG if you search the shop there). Pretty leather!
Your handwriting is beautiful, I love to watch videos like this one and it inspires me so much. Thank you
Thank you for the kind words! 💕
I was thinking of using the hibino for morning and evening routines - left page for morning routine and right page for reflections/ gratitude. I was going to ignore the grid and just use the lines to keep straight 🙈 I love the weeks mega :) love seeing how people use planners and it’s so helpful when trying to work out what I’ll do next year so thank you 💙
Oooh that’s a great idea! The Hibino is definitely a cute little book! I too love seeing how people use different books 🙌🏽💕
The grid on the Hibino blows my mind 🤯 can’t write that small at all. And it’s too chunky. But it’s so cute 🥰
It’s sooooo cute 🥰! I really wanted to make it work.
thank you for this, for the clear images and for having NO MUSIC.
You’re welcome - thanks so much for watching and commenting 😊💕
What is price
For the TWSBI eco fountain pen? It depends on where you purchase - an example is $32.99 at Atlas Stationers in the US (I’m an affiliate) You can search for “TWSBI” to see all the options: www.atlasstationers.com?sca_ref=3519669.16ffpLfWWH
That is super cool! Thanks for the demo!
You’re welcome! It’s a really cool nib!
Love this video and great choice for ink! Love yours; how do you like the broad nib? Mine is fine and it's the smoothest Estie I have!! ' --Kim
Thanks Kim! This is my first B nib from Esterbrook and I have to say I absolutely love it! I used to be an EF/F nib person but lately have been extending to M/B for journaling and now love that I can see the ink properties. A great writing experience 💕
what a beautiful pen and ink combination! thanks for sharing 💛
Thanks for watching! I agree, this ink goes so well with the pen.
I ordered one with a stub nib… waiting for it… not so patiently… good ink choice!
Ooh I love their stub nibs. Haha it’ll be worth the wait 🙌🏽 have you decided on ink yet?
Now I’m thinking about writers blood!!
I love Wonder Pens too!!! I get a lot from them. I also love Paper Plus Cloth - also in Toronto. It is amazing all the different items each store has. I am just glad I live at least an hour plus north west of Wonder Pens otherwise my house would have even more stationery that it does 😊
Agreed, Paper Plus Cloth is also great! I now live across the country but that doesn’t stop me from ordering from them online 😂
My siblings and I found some quotes our parents had written on note cards when we were young. It was fun to see those so many years later.
How cool to come across those note cards! 🙌🏽💕
I purchased the Hibino for 2024 and have the same Hobonichi Ohayo 5 year cover but don’t feel like it fits well. Did yours take time? My cover won’t lay flat/flush with both Hibino covers slipped into the cover. 😢
I didn’t really have any issues with it laying flat with the cover on but when I closed the book, I would have to smooth the covers because it was a bit stiff (I think that’s just because of the Hibino cover material). I just kept smoothing and flexing the book + cover to stretch it out. Admittedly, It’s not a perfectly smooth fit.
