    I haven't counted recently, but I have four dresser drawers full of unused notebooks. But I go through them at the rate of about one every two months, on average, so I have no regrets - and I will still buy more if I find one I absolutely love.

      Four dresser drawers!!! Whoa - I’d love to see your collection! And kudos for filling them up so fast! That’s what I aspire to do but right now, one every three months is my goal!

    I am *obsessed* with how you put washi on the interior covers of your notebooks. That is gorgeous, and I could stare at it for minutes on end!
    What an awesome collection you have!

    I absolutely love this style of showing off your journal collection. I love that you flip through your journals briefly because seeing the decorations and writing together is so inspiring. It’s beautiful and gives me the push to keep going. I might also adopt the idea of switching to one journal at a time so that I can actually finish them a little sooner. Thank you for sharing this video!!!! I’m obsessed!

      Thank you so much! This was such a fun video to make and thankfully, since filming I haven’t purchased any new journals🤣 But I am almost finished with my first one of 2023 so I’ll have to post an update!

    • @blackgirliowa
      @blackgirliowa  Год назад +2

      I love that your journals have things like that! It adds to the memories as your re-read your writings and remember what you were feeling at the time!

    That’s such a good use of the simply gilded washi’s! I run out of ideas on how to use washi tape so that really stood out to me.

    • @blackgirliowa
      @blackgirliowa  Год назад

      Yes! I have too much of it so at this point - all my journals get an inside cover makeover🤣

    • @blackgirliowa
      @blackgirliowa  Год назад +2

      Yay! Thank you! I have some journals I legit cannot read - I think what helped is that I do my journaling before bed. That way, I’m relaxed and ready to reflect on my day. It also helped me sleep at night when I’m not thinking about all the things because I got them all out on paper😊

  • @annathompson3034
    @annathompson3034 Год назад +1

    I can relate I love notebooks started with the spiral bound 5star when I was in HS then hard cover notebooks like exceed lol to blanks and now I do have a few book shelves full of moleskine soft cover large to pocket classic notebook and planner I just love notebooks I love journaling scripting writing in general so keep on collecting because the cost of everything is going up you definitely save money on all of your notebooks I know I have saved 😊

    • @blackgirliowa
      @blackgirliowa  Год назад

    Nice to see another fan of the Exceed notebooks! Those are definitely my favorites - the price point, availability, and paper quality can't be beat. I'm also a huge fan of the dot grid artist loft notebooks from Michaels when I'm in the mood for white paper instead of cream.
    Also - I love your washi tape endpapers!

Moleskine, Hobonichi, EXCEED....LOL I think I need an intervention. If I were married I think my wife would divorce me lol lol lol. What can I say, I like to write!!! In total I have 73 notebooks.

    Loved the flip! New subbie, you’re such a fun personality. I was literally typing up ‘what do you use to print your photos?’ when you pulled out the hp sprocket. It’s time I invest in one for my journaling. Too many moments to document.

    Your RUclips channel kept popping up in my feed because I love journaling videos or anything that has to do with journaling even the journal notebooks. I am the same way I love getting journals, so I have a lot of blank ones I need to use. I like the journals that are the ring type because I think they work better for me since I'm left-handed. I am also a Harry Potter fan and I have the same journal as you but mine is the Hufflepuff one since I am a Hufflepuff, but the journals are so beautiful that I will probably get all of them also one day.

    • @blackgirliowa
      @blackgirliowa  2 года назад +1

    Midori MD notebooks are my favorite. Love the cream colored paper, the feel, and how my pens work on them ❤
    Question for you - Do you journal every day? Does journal ever feel like a task or burdensome? How do you just keep going? I ask as a person who serially starts journals but I always fall off.

    • @blackgirliowa
      @blackgirliowa  2 года назад +1

      My goal is to journal every day and I’d say I hit that goal four out of seven days a week! I notice my mood shift and I feel anxious and overwhelmed when I don’t journal so it does help me process things and keep my thoughts straight❤️

      @blackgirliowa  Год назад

      I’m using an HP Sprocket! It takes 2x3 paper that I get on Amazon. 100 photo sheets is $45-$50 and it lasts me six to eight months.

    What is the pen you use in most of your books? Watching this I can’t get over it, it looks like a black sharpie but there’s no bleed through? Beautiful collection. Whatever you use, I NEED TO KNOW

    • @blackgirliowa
      @blackgirliowa  Год назад

      So…I’m a heaux for a good felt-tip pen/marker! I’m using a set from Hobby Lobby now, but my go-to is a Sharpie Pen or a LePen marker😊
