The fact that you will research two companies to see if one has derived much inspiration from the other - you have my respect. There's so much copying going on in the planner sphere that people just don't think about these issues. I've seen leather planners and fountain pens that are a DIRECT COPY of original designs, and people don't seem to bat an eyelash supporting the "dupes". There's nothing wrong with getting inspiration from other designs, but one could obviously see if it's direct copies. Even if the dupe were of good enough quality, the fact that it's making money from copying another design is something I cannot, in good conscience, support.
I don't have a plotter, but it seems short-lived in just about every RUclips channel I support. They introduce the system in one video and shortly after are making another video explaining why it doesn't work. I find this intriguing because it looks like a great system! But it's also an expensive system to discard so shortly after purchase. I was drawn to their project folders myself and made some out of thicker craft paper. It was a fun project and took me less than 15 minutes. Whatever system you choose, I'm sure you will have put a lot of thought into it, and it will be enjoyable for you❤🎉 looking forward to seeing what direction you go!
Well, this was my first year journaling, & my first travelers notebook, but it didn’t take long for me to lose interest in it. I’m still glad I have it, & I’ll still watch your videos for entertainment, & hopefully inspiration. I realized that I don’t have a life worth journaling about haha. Maybe in the Spring & Summer I’ll feel differently.
The project planning folders from plotter are kind of meh. You can make them yourself and I don’t think they are necessary. Wuzhi is the knockoff, but their shortened metal plates are nice imo because the corners are rounded. The plotter backplate has quite sharp corners and has scratched other things in my bag. Wuzhi only offers pueblo leather but plotter has more options.
I'm trying a mix where I have the daily events in the larger travellers notebook in a TC weekly, a pocket field notes style for sort of 'capture' whether that's to-do, thoughts, shopping lists or whatever, then I have a moleskine for the longform 'this is what happened today and this is how it made me feel'. It's working really well for me. Like TC - planner, Field Notes - rough capture, Moleskine - longform. Love your videos!
I have a few of plotter stuff. The best thing is that the planners are compact and sleek. the project system is something you can did by yourself, to be honest, I don't think you need shop for that. BTW, if you go with plotter, you are better shop for a mini hole paper punch.
This is so stunning, I love the aesthetic ☺☺☺
