i'm so excited for our FIRST NEW YORK CITY POP-UP!! 😭❤ i can't believe this is real. i'm so nervous but i can't wait to see NYC lil doodles there! RSVP here: newyork.shopify.com/shoparlnewyorkpop-up
I bought a corner rounder a few years ago and LOVE IT. Definitely have gotten my money’s worth out of it. Round corners are such a little detail, but makes a huge impact. I’ve gotten compliments on them when people see my bujo and have recommended the tool numerous times.
A useful product for me would be a notepad with mini calendars and other common trackers printed on the same dot grid paper of the journals so I can glue it in and it blends seamlessly. Love the set up!
Not sure if this has ever been suggested but planner kits could be a cool idea for shop ARL. Like some patterned paper and stickers based on your monthly journal themes would be fun!
this month's theme is soooo cuteeee!! i absolutely love the little details and drawings that you did inside of the scalloped lines, i am absolutely doing this!! all the love and best wishes on your NYC pop up, amandaaa!! 💗💗💗
I think a really lovely mothly theme for next year's journal would be Australian native flowers! I know it's sort of niche, but there are so many gorgeous and unique Aussie flowers and plants that could make a really beautiful theme! ❤
Just wanted to say thank you for sharing your art and bullet journal with us. This year I felt inspired to finally start my first journal. It's become such a fun part of my routine!
I've been sooo unmotivated lately. This video actually made me feel focused and eager to start over as many times as I need until I feel good. Thank you
i had a little flashback to younger Amanda being obsessed with drop shadows, so it felt funny for me to hear how this month was all about the rounded corners hahah. i looove this theme btw!! we love a good pattern hehe, also the color palette slays! i also totally feel you on uploading on time as a bullet journaler myself haha, i've been having to let go of the pressured timeline on myself esp as i'm about to go into a new full-time job where keeping up with social media won't be as consistent as i was before haha. honestly even if the month reveal didn't show up until the end of the month as a little month recap, i'd totally be down for that vibe!
Yeah, had to accept a long time ago that we can’t really use these as inspo for the month they are meant for anymore 😅 which is kinda sad because that’s what her channel and business were originally built on, but things change :)
@@spacegirl6590 If she was still using themes that are month-specific, it would be a problem, but since she's using themes that can be used anytime, it's fine. You can use any of her work as inspiration. The only reason to match her month to month is in hopes of getting a shoutout in one of her videos.
@@spacegirl6590there are so many theme ideas out there on every social app and very few of them are month specific. it's not fair for us to make it amanda's responsibility to tell us what to draw.
CONGRATULATIONS ON THE POP UP!!! can’t wait to see you there :) also to anyone reading, my recent stationery obsession has been decorative craft scissors that cut paper in some patterned line! highly recommend, it brings an inner child out lol
When you mentioned decorative paper, so many memories from my childhood unlocked of me journaling and scrapbooking with decorative paper with different textures and patterns, maybe some even were sparkly or had glitter details on them. It would definitively be a nice addition to shop ARL, and personally I would love if some had a witchy, fairy tale, enchanted forest vibe to them. And that goes for themes for the 2026 planner aswell. 🌿🌳✨🍄💖🔮🐈⬛
Pattern pages sound great! Also it would be great if you would release non-dot grid versions of your notebooks - I love the cover designs but I do more regular journaling than bullet journaling and so lined paper is a lot more convenient for me
CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR NYC SHOP POP-UP which you largely deserve ! That's a big accomplishment of years of work that should teach people that we have to dream big and never give up. Now... any pop-up scheduled in Paris ? 😉
a decorative paper I would love to see is just words that looks like it's from a book - maybe even different styles of books? Like dictionary vs textbook vs novel vs children's book, and maybe in different languages just to spice it up! I'd much rather buy something like that than actually tear up a book for decorative purposes haha!
Hey Amanda. Your setup is amazing as always. Just one suggestion. Can you make the flip through a little longer? The art is so good, so there should be a little more of a pause before the turning of a page. That’s all. 😊
Maybe unpopular opinion but what about bullet journals that are spiral or 3-ring bound? I want to digitally save each physical spread I do but not just a photo of it. I'd love to scan it at high resolution. If I could take out the pages, it would be so much easier. Plus, I wouldn't ever have to worry about not leaving enough pages for something because I could just add pages in.
Amanda - love this January layout.. You are so very talented. Wishing you the best in NYC with your Pop-up. You will never know how much you have changed my life. I am 74 yrs old.... I have been with you for many years now.. When you introduced BTS to me, I absolutely fell in love with them. I play their music so very much that now even my husband knows "Butter" lol.. With them, I started following other S. Korean you-tubers. Then I got onto "shorts" and found "The Untamed" (Chinese drama) with Xiao Zhan and Wang Yibo. I have now watched over 400 Chinese dramas. As I am now handicapped and home bound, I am never bored and am always entertained with these dramas. I told hubby I couldn't give up living as there are many new dramas that are coming out! He laughed. But, thank you so much and I now do not know what I would do without this free entertainment. Always enjoy your videos and big Granny hugs from Biloxi, MS...
NGL, I don't know how to do this with all that stuff in the flat lay and without tilting your journal. I think that's a bigger flex than drawing a straight line without a ruler.
I really want to come out to the NYC event. I already RSVPed. But I'm just on the fence with it because it would be a lot of money & effort for me to come over. I'm originally from Philly. My boyfriend lives in West New York which is in New Jersey. Across the Hudson River. He has work Saturday. We have plans Sunday through Tuesday. So I was going to park my car in Hoboken & take the Path train over which is like $3 one way, but the parking garage is $32. Street parking on a weekend is hard to find. I'm trying to be mindful with my money and seeing as how we have stuff going on Sunday through Tuesday, having to spend $30 just to store my car for few hours just kinda sucks. Because that's $30 I could put towards something else. So then I was looking at other means of getting there, and it's just all coming out to be an arm and a leg regardless. Your pop up is so close yet so far still! I wanted to go friday night, but i dont feel comfortable traveling in alone at night either. I'll decide last second! >_
I bought the planner last year but I didn’t repurchase it because of the Monday monthly calendars. It was too difficult to keep the days in place with school calendars and work calendars. I don’t know if it’s just hard for me or anyone else had this issue.
Does someone in this comment section know a good quality microphone (that isnt toooo expensive) bcs ive been filming my journal,set ups aswell but my voiceovers are shiat

petition to have the january cover page art as an actual journal cover for 2026

I would love decorative papers! And maybe some sheets that are colored dot grid, too. That would be great!

how dare youtube hide this from me for one mintue

Yessss omg a pattern pages book would be perfect not only for bujo but can be used for junk journaling or just about anything!! I would love this!
This is my favorite bullet journaling channel

At this point, I'm not even surprised we're getting January pwm on 22😂

I would LOVE a gratitude spread in the Doodle planner. I always add a page for Gratitude every month after the mood tracker, just one line a day!
would LOVE decoration papers designed by ARL!! decor paper is one thing but knowing it was hand drawn (designed) makes it so much more special
8:53 i would 100% buy this!!
CONGRATULATIONS ON THE POP UP!!! can’t wait to see you there :)

Congratulations on the pop up shop! I would definitely purchase patterned paper. The pattern you madr for January is adorable!
Happy New Year Amanda! I love your monthly calendar spreads they are so beautiful and creative.💖💖
YAYY SHE FINALLY POSTEDDD!!! I LOVE THIS THEME 🩵

Congrats on your pop up in NYC! How exciting for a dream to come true!! Hope it's a huge success. 😊
Congrats on the pop-up shop for NYC 🎉 💕
Ohhh. I love your theme so much! I’m still catching up with Jan 🥹😂
I would love a book of paper to use. I also saw an idea of a pad mini calendars, which would be cool.

Patterned paper is such a good idea! Love this design 💖
Also you could do some pages that aren’t coloured so we can colour them in and some that are so we can just use it as is 😍
I would LOVE decorative papers!!!!
i literally just RSVP’d for the pop up today! i am so insanely excited!
I love pattern pages. I just used the Tim Holtz Worn Wallpaper for my 2025 cover page. It’s giving lovey granny vibes with vintage wallpaper.
Congrats on the pop-up! ❤
Obsessed

Sounds like it’s going to be fun! You’ve got this. 👍🏻 Very nice spread; really like the decorative theme! ❤️🌹

I would TOTALLY buy this pattern as patterned paper or washi tape!!!❤❤❤❤

the world must be healing
Can we have your cactus theme from I believe 2018? In the 2026 planner?

January page design reminds me of the lick-able wallpaper in Willy Wonka.
Was waitingggg🥹🥹🥹

PLEASE TELL ME WHERE U GET ALL YOUR PENS AND THEIR NAMES
I thought it would be the February bullet journal
😭😭😭
@@amandarachlee i loved the theme!!
Where was that rounded corner cutter when I was an RA and designing entire bulletin boards every month 😭😭
😊
Not being in nyc for the popup is making me so sad 😭
This is so exciting - I’m so proud of you for the pop-up shop 🥹✨❤️
I’m using the teddy journal this year too!
omgg
Does someone in this comment section know a good quality microphone (that isnt toooo expensive) bcs ive been filming my journal,set ups aswell but my voiceovers are shiat
Any chance of doing a Detroit pop up in the future?
