All my notebooks turn into ‘common place’ books. They’re all full of oddities and jottings. 😃
I use my journals that way also; everything from favorite scriptures, quotes, tips on how to create for junk journals, and food tips.
I would love to see more ideas for a commonplace book. I’ve wanted to do something similar - and now I’m inspired to start. Thanks so much 😊
Yay!!!
Yes please add a new commonplace video at times, to offer new creative ways to improve on our pages and add variety. Thanks.
just love Commonplace books they inspire me and I have just so much fun. Prefer it to a journal, thank you for fabulous posts
I’ve not heard of a commonplace book before, I’d like to see more please. X❤️
Would love to see more common place book ideas. I like the simplicity.

This video was inspiring! It will be a bi g help to me as I try to figure out how I want to create my first Common Place Book. Thank you!
I love this example of a commonplace book, and it's great fun watching you create it!
I've wanted to do this for ages. I'm going to start today.❤
Very nice. I've always wanted to do a common place book too. Thank you for video
Love the commonplace book. Please continue to show ideas for this
Love this idea. Just started my own common place book. ❤️❤️
Yes. Yes. More Commonplace book videos. 😊
Beautiful! Yes please, would love to see more updates! I love my commonplace book, although it is all scribbled book notes and facts and quotes, not pretty at all! Those wallpapers are amazing too! ✨
More..yes please...love this idea!
Yes please more commonplace book videos. I am making one also for the first time.😊

@@megjournals I'm making an altered book journal...I have 3 books to choose from: 2 are gardening books and one is an Audubon society birding book.
Joining in asking for more commonplace videos! Thank you. ❤
I love this and hope you do more videos! This is the way I like to use in my journals but I had no idea it had a name!! Now I do!! ❤
Thank you so much!
So nice this video, and yes give us more of this. Like it❤
I’m really keen to see how your commonplace book evolves. Mine is just a decoration on the side and mostly writing. So I’m always keen for ideas
I love this idea!
I love this idea
Beautiful cover! I love the simplicity! And a lovely first entry!
Thank you!
I'm currently on commonplace book sticking in paper ephemera, text and packaging too nice to be thrown away. I didn't know what they were until I did some research on the subject. Most of past journals are like scrapbook or Smashbook. I use TN style inserts for regular art junk journaling.
I have a commonplace book for my job as an accountant. I love it and use it constantly. Mainly I use it when I need to do something and the software is just weird. Sounds strange but accounting software often acts like everything runs perfectly and no changes will ever be needed. Anyway a commonplace book gives me a place to record how to make a change for all of the weird transactions you may run into.
I would love to see more
I definitely want to see more! ❤❤❤
Love this idea.💞
Yes I am still learning what everything is. Thank you
I made the switch last year from making notes on scraps of paper to cue cards then to a journal book. I didn't realize till now that it was a Common place book! ❤ Gorgeous wallpaper samples! Ty
I also have a common place book. Mostly of quotes and poems, lines from books that I've read.
I would be most interested in watching as your progress through your commonplace book. The one I keep is rather plain. You have inspired me to go back and add some artistic interest to the pages.
That John Green quote really spoke to me too! It made me smile as soon as I saw you start to write it out. Your commonplace book is beautiful so far. I really like the way you use those dot markers - I have some and I haven’t really known how I wanted to use them yet. You inspired me to pull them back out and try again!
Interesting.💜🐞
Fabulous 1st page! Lovely wallpaper samples. I’d love to see more of what you add in your commonplace book 😊
Yes, please I would like to have more of the pages in the ideas I like that I would also like to try with myself. Thanks for sharing and the inspiration.
Thanks for stopping by!
This is new to me. Interested! ❤
I would love to see more of your ideas on a commonplace book!
I would love to see more commonplace journal ideas! Thank you for sharing your ideas. I always look forward to your videos!☺️
Aw thank you!
Yes more common place note book. Love the wallpaper it’s just beautiful. And I do like the travellers note book. I have one that I use for watercolours on the run sewn together with dyed calico fabric. I like your videos calm and not endless use of bought stuff. 👍
That sounds amazing! Thank you!
Great start to what should prove to be a fun addition to your collection!
I'd love to see more commonplace book videos please, I too keep a commonplace book mainly for quotes and song lyrics
This is a nice idea! Would enjoy seeing your future creations here !
I love working in my commonplace book! Great addition with the wall paper swatches.🌸💜
What book do you use for your commonplace book? :)
Like so many other commenters I would love to see more about common place books. Wonderful idea!! Blessings from Betty in OHIO. In the 80’s here today but may get snow on Monday!!
Thanks for stopping by!!
Love this ❤
Thanks for giving my many (misc'.) journals the proper name tag... 🥰 !!!
I am interested in seeing more entry ideas for the Commonplace book.
Hi Meg. Yes, I'd like to see you work in your commonplace book. I will work in mine too. TFS
Yay!!
Those are pretty pages. 😊👍
yes, I would enjoy more videos like this. 😊
Yes please. Would love to see more videos !
Thanks to you, all my commonplace books are accordeon journals,
Oooooh that's so fun!
I love this idea. Pls keep us up to date on your progress. 😍
Love this,I would like to see more please.
I like this idea, i have a Conquest Journals travel journal cover and inserts that would work well as a commonplace book. I tend to have commonplace infomration (quotes, ideas, information) in every notebook and planner I own, but a central spot in a more formal commonplace book concept like those of the Rennaiisance period would be a great idea. Thanks for sharing this
Not sure about online sorry but have you tried your local thrift/charity/antique shops? :)
more commonplace please, that really interests me, thanks
Interesting I have never heard of the common place book
Since starting jj I have learned so many things
Thank you!
❤️❤️❤️
