I am very new at this. Lol at 67 years old. Your layout is beautiful. I love the idea of adding a leaf or flower as well as your drawing. Thank you for all of your tips. Great information.
I love the idea of collecting notes and then assembling them later in a loving way. This gives an opportunity to contemplate all that you’ve seen and experienced to make a much more thoughtful journal entry.
I love to journal but I have never considered nature journaling. Your video has opened up a whole new world for me and now I’m excited to try! Thank you!
Just finished organizing my journal like yours and now just need to get out to nature and record her beauty. Just waiting for the weather to cool down. Way too hot here in Texas. Thanks for the inspo. 💖
Use it indoors also. I often head out in winter and just sketch from my nice warm (and windless) car. You could also use it to quick sketch your coffee mug or your mailman or your neighbor’s beautiful fall colored tree.
I want to share a little poem I wrote because I was trying to start nature sketch journaling. 10/6/23 I could never replicate you~little leaf. I'm sorry that I tried. And had to pick you from your branch and left you here aside. But you would fall with all the rest of your like and of more. So sorry though I cut your time and left you oh so poor.😂
Oh I love this little moment of honoring the plant. I try to do this often when I prepare a meal, especially if it is a meat dish. A moment of reverence and gratitude for the animal that had to give it’s life for my family.
@@samanthabudiselich7996 SO glad you are going to give it a try! I started with one mini journal and now have 8 different designated nature journals…thanks so much for watching and commenting 😊🌼
Thank you for the suggestions. These tips would work well for a travel journal too. Especially like the post it note hack, so we can keep the writing looking nice. Thank you again for taking the time to make the video. Happy journaling!
I love these hacks, especially making pencil lines for writing and using posi-it notes for thoughts while on location. These will be a great help in my art and travel jourrnals.
Excellent tips, thank you for sharing! I am inspired by the pre-sketched layout and the idea of using a rubber stamp to save an area for meta data. My favorite tip is the elastic pen holder! I haven't seen those before, but they look very handy! Wonderful video!
Thanks so much! I first made these pen straps for a friend’s wedding journal I custom made as a gift. I added a strap to it and then realized I could make them into pen holders. Thanks so much for watching the video and being so encouraging! 😊🌸
Great tips and a beautiful journal spread. I think it would help if i had some drawing talent like yours as well. Can't wait to get out in the beautiful fall weather and start collecting ideas.
@@donnakinmn1683 Thanks so much! I have some fall related videos with ideas to journal with little or no drawing. Also, a future video with more ideas…my latest video shared some drawing tips that are REALLY easy too. So glad you enjoy the beautiful outdoors and want to capture it in a journal. Thanks so much for watching and commenting 😊🌼
Lovely, inspiring video. I am journaling since decades (with interruptions) but never heard about nature journaling. What a great idea, since I am outside with my dog evwry single day but never thought about that kind of journaling. Awesome idea! Besides: your pages looked ao beautiful!
I have been wanting to nature journal and just didn’t know how to start! This video has helped me immensely. I have liked and subscribed. I’ll be going back through your previous videos and am looking forward to your future ones. Thanks so much for sharing!
Wow! I love this so much! New subscriber! Thank you for this tips - i really like the premade layout so you don't have the fear of the blank page when you go out to nature journal!
Beautiful. This is a wonderful legacy. I liked the video, subscribed, and commented. Every bit helps keep the channel going. Looking forward to seeing more of your lovely videos.
My first time seeing a video of yours. Your artwork is beautiful and I loved the addition of the real, pressed leaf and bloom to your book. I am new to watercolors and this was very informative.
This video is awesome. Thank you. I'm also going to attach a pouch to the back of my journal for bulkier things. That way, my journal will stay flat but I can carry bulkier things back with me... or maybe even carry my tiny watercolor palette in there. I need to think on it.
Sounds like a great idea! I carry a pouch as well in my backpack. Feel free to tag me on Instagram if you find something that works…would love to share with the community if you don’t mind! Thanks for watching! 😊🌸
Love this! This has inspired me to make nature walks and journaling an intentional part of my week. Even if I only make it to my backyard sometimes 😊 Thanks for the inspiration ❤
Such wonderful ideas, thank you! Your journal is so beautiful!!! I appreciate all the work you put into making this and I will definitely put these ideas to good use! Wishing you many happy hours in nature 🍃✨️
Love these ideas. I just hit like and subscribe. I take a lot of nature photos on my walks but never thought of making a journal like this. Thank you for the inspiration!
New subscriber here, and I rarely subscribe! These are wonderful tips. I have found myself at a loss out in nature, having a sketchbook and a pen, or a small paint set, but not knowing where to start. Your journal is so lovely, and I love the idea of setting yourself up ahead of time for success. Thank you so much for sharing!
Beautiful work! When I can draw like you did I will considered myself an artist. I always wondered how these types of journals were constructed. Lovely!
Thanks so much! I appreciate your encouragement! I’m working on a video on simplifying Nature drawing so hopefully something in it will help. Thanks so much for watching! 😊🌸
Great ideas! I also keep a piece of plastic or old gift card wrapped with washi tape. I keep it in an envelope in the back of my journal. I love idea of premade layouts.
I have recently discovered that taking a ruler just ends up losing me a ruler. Ha. So I grabbed an old ruler I had at home and sketched out two side by side lines on the inside cover, drawing them top to bottom at the edge. The left one I made into inches and the right one, about half an inch from the other, I made centimeters. What I often do is look up feathers or flowers to see what they are and if I leave them where I find them, I don’t always have the measurements in cm, so having these inches and cms helps in identifying my finds. Just last week I found a roughly six inch feather, and when looking it up, I had no idea how many cms (which the website noted) it translated to, so I found using this ruler kept me from having to guess incorrectly and was readily available inside the book. Just fewer things for me to keep up with and not leave behind. I do love the pocket idea, as I’m always wanting to bring home a seed or a sprig to share with my neighbor who can’t get out and walk w me.

I have recently discovered that taking a ruler just ends up losing me a ruler. Ha. So I grabbed an old ruler I had at home and sketched out two side by side lines on the inside cover, drawing them top to bottom at the edge. The left one I made into inches and the right one, about half an inch from the other, I made centimeters. What I often do is look up feathers or flowers to see what they are and if I leave them where I find them, I don’t always have the measurements in cm, so having these inches and cms helps in identifying my finds. Just last week I found a roughly six inch feather, and when looking it up, I had no idea how many cms (which the website noted) it translated to, so I found using this ruler kept me from having to guess incorrectly and was readily available inside the book. Just fewer things for me to keep up with and not leave behind. I do love the pocket idea, as I’m always wanting to bring home a seed or a sprig to share with my neighbor who can’t get out and walk w me.
