I love the colors you chose. I also really appreciate that you give credit to other artists. It’s so respectful and kind. I’m excited to have another bujo artist to follow!
I should start bullet journaling with college to keep track of all my exam and write my hw for each week bc it's starting to get messy an there's barely any space in the school's agenda + i like to draw so i could do a bird theme and do like a "drawing of the month section", wouldn't need to stop carrying my sketchbook bc it's good to have it when i have time to kill between 2 classes
If you have a iPad or similar then you can size the letter to the right size and flip them and trace straight of the screen. It takes a bit of practice to be able draw without touching the screen but it saves paper and means you can get the exact the size you want.
I’ve done that a couple of times, but I find the journal paper is a bit too thick to see it through? So I did it with printer paper and then traced it again, but it was too many steps, if that makes sense 😂 I’ll use those stickers in my reading journal though so they won’t go to waste!
Newbie here. I don’t bullet journal, but love to watch artists do it. Shayda Campbell has taught me a lot on florals, too. Beautiful set up and you have an easy voice to listen to. Thanks!
Oh that’s so exciting Jessica! I hope you love it here 🥰 Kmart, Officeworks, Kaisercraft and Big W are great places to start, and lots of the capital cities have a shop called Mint My Desk that has cool stuff too!
I'm new to journaling but this is by far the most inspirational video I have seen so far. So many brilliant ideas. Can't wait to try them out myself. Thanks for sharing.
I have started my 2023 too ;) ! Thank you so much for doing this. This will be the first year I am arting my planner and surprisingly it is very hard to get such wonderful explanations and suggestions as you have given. Thank you so much. 😊🤩
@@ErinSmith You're welcome! Thank you for sharing your art with me/all of us!!! I am so blessed to be able to hang out with amazing Artists like you on TH-cam! 💖🫂😎✨🇺🇲🙋🏻♀️
Love this Erin, I purchased a Bullet Journal from Sassi Pidgeon to start my new year, I also follow Shayda Campbell, and love her work, as well as Jashii Corrin. Brilliant ideas put together beautifully. Going to try this!!! ✨✨✨✨
Beautiful! I’ve gotten so behind in my planning that I’m still trying to finish November before tomorrow! 😅😅 I definitely need to watch as many yearly set up as possible. I’ve never done one so I need to figure out what I like and don’t like. The live to plan your social media tracker would be fun!
I absolutely love these colors. I'm just beginning journals, so I'm going to look into brush pen flowers, bc they're absolutely beautiful! Also, thanks for the tip on the ruler. Thank you so much for sharing! Cheers! 😘👍🏻😁📖✍🏼
Ha! I love Tracy and Jess! This is all really cute! I should probably try to set up next year soon, because come January I'll be freaking out trying to decide what to do :)
Love the colours and flowers. I am left with some questions though... 1) when you trace the numbers why do you print out the 2 twice? 2) if you have mini-calenders in your future log why do you have an additional year-at-a-glance? Would like to see the pages after use because I wondered about the little space you left for writing and used most for decorations.
Hi Fiona! 1. I printed the 2 sticker twice because I plan to use them in my reading journal soon - as actual stickers, not a template! 2. Sorry I’m not sure what you mean - do you mean my content calendar? It’s specifically for TH-cam and Instagram planning, whereas the future log is for birthdays, events, bills reminders etc. You can have a look at my past flip-through videos to see what my stuff typically looks like once used, although I do blur some sections I prefer to keep private. Hope this helps!
@@ErinSmith thank you for answering so quickly. I'll go and have a look at the flip throughs. I'd be shocked if you wouldn't blurr things out. And I'll have a proper rewatch of this video... looks like I was a bit under the weather and confused things.
Here I am, thinking it's too early to start planning for December and you're already doing 2023 set up!!!! 😆👏👑 I'm not really into florals, but the colors are great! I'm thinking of doing a plants theme for my 2023 set up because I somehow ended up buying a ton of green/leaf washi and pants stickers. (I swear I have no idea how this happened!)
I loved this video! I havent started setting up my journals because they havent arrived yet but this definitely gave me some inspiration. Can wait to see your next video
Aah I've been waiting for the first 2023 setup since... September 🤔😂 I really enjoyed watching yours as the first one! And I definitely got a few new ideas for my own setup, so thanks for that! 🤗
It felt like I was cheating when I set up my 2023 bullet journal at the start of October but it makes me feel better knowing I'm not the only one like likes to start early 😭😭
This is super cute and I love the brush pen florals!! You did a great job! 🌷 Mine typically end up as blobs when I try to follow along w/ Shayda 🤣 Btw, I do think the “pouch” you used for the bookmark looks like it’s an unassembled envelope- 💌- meant to be folded/glued together by the side tabs (in case you have more!)
FYI any printer that uses zink paper the images are posed to start fading in 12 years... i upgraded my sproket to the fujifilm instanx mini than also got the kodak mini retro 2 bc it was on sale and had better print quality
I’m aware! I’m actually totally ok with it fading. I have an Instax mini but I think the prints are too thick to stick in my journal! I like how thin the Sprocket paper is.
I’ve only had my printer for about 8 months so I can’t say for sure, but it depends a lot on the paper you use and the conditions your journal is in. If it’s kept in a hot place they will definitely fade faster. I know Phomemo stock a 20-year fade proof paper, so I would stick to that one if you’re worried about it.
You might have had a bit too much water going on 😭 if you have a white paint pen you can use it to colour over the edges once it’s dry, or you can cover it with a bit of paper from the back of your book!
Too much work for the tracing part, next time fill the white area of the paper with graphite and then trace directly with a pointed edge over whichever surface you're gonna use, the graphite will transfer itself and leave an outline of your desired shapes. Like a carbon copy.
Thank you. It is very nice but, this video is about decorating journal not planning!!!! I am in18 minutes and still is nothing about planning... I know, you need only likes or subscribers and you really don't care what you are showing there!
I love the colors you chose. I also really appreciate that you give credit to other artists. It’s so respectful and kind. I’m excited to have another bujo artist to follow!
I’m so glad! Thank you for being here 🥰

Love the setup Erin, and so great to see that you liked the "Then & Now" idea enough to do one for yourself 🥰 gorgeous work!
Thanks Jess! It's such a great page idea, I can't wait to use it!
Gorgeous set up Erin. I love Jess as well, in fact she's the person that got me into journalling :)
The grid spacing pouch is so creative and lovely!

Makes me want to set up my BUJO for 2023… but I wait for December. I’m making notes tho! I want to include a “when did I last???” Spread too
Oh that’s a good one! I had one of those in my mid year setup but I didn’t use it 😅
Dang I wish I’d seen this before because I already set up my budget pages but your set up actually makes way more sense. Super pretty overall!
There’s always next time! 😘
Here I am, thinking it's too early to start planning for December and you're already doing 2023 set up!!!! 😆👏👑
I'm not really into florals, but the colors are great! I'm thinking of doing a plants theme for my 2023 set up because I somehow ended up buying a ton of green/leaf washi and pants stickers. (I swear I have no idea how this happened!)
I like setting up early so all my fellow early people can get some early inspo 😉 and I haven’t set up December yet either!
I loved this video! I havent started setting up my journals because they havent arrived yet but this definitely gave me some inspiration. Can wait to see your next video
Magnifique 🌹🌹🌹🌹

I have definitely been thinking about it since September 😂
I have the same Bujo for this year
Twinsies 😉
your set up is absolutely stunning - you are very talented!
🥰🥰 I’m so glad you like it, Lisa!
This gives me a lot of motivation to fill out my still-new-yet-old sketchbook of mine.
I hope your 2023 is the best year for you!
You can do it Ashley! Thank you so much 🥰
Amazing!! 😍
Thank you so much Paige! 🥰
Such a pretty color palette!
Thank you so much! I’m really enjoying it too 🥰
It felt like I was cheating when I set up my 2023 bullet journal at the start of October but it makes me feel better knowing I'm not the only one like likes to start early 😭😭
We are the same 😘😘 I think if you’re excited about it you enjoy it more, we just happen to be excited a bit sooner than average!
So beautiful!✨
Thank you so much!
Your journal is so pretty! Mine didn't get set up until January and is basic. I think I might get it ready early next time
Thank you so much Emilie! A basic journal is still a wonderful journal 😘
Absolutely beautiful! ❤ Also, thanks for the shout out. 🥰
Thanks for being an Actual Genius! 😘
This is so beautiful. You could print this and sell it. it's so beautiful.
I’m so glad you like it Joanne! 🥰🥰
This is super cute and I love the brush pen florals!! You did a great job! 🌷 Mine typically end up as blobs when I try to follow along w/ Shayda 🤣
Btw, I do think the “pouch” you used for the bookmark looks like it’s an unassembled envelope- 💌- meant to be folded/glued together by the side tabs (in case you have more!)
Ohhhh I would never have thought of that! Haha thank you Yeimary - if I have another one I’ll see if I can work out how to fold it 😂
These spreads are sooo prettyy, btw what do you fill in the other pages with?
Have a look at my 2022 playlist and you'll get a pretty good idea!
FYI any printer that uses zink paper the images are posed to start fading in 12 years... i upgraded my sproket to the fujifilm instanx mini than also got the kodak mini retro 2 bc it was on sale and had better print quality
I’m aware! I’m actually totally ok with it fading. I have an Instax mini but I think the prints are too thick to stick in my journal! I like how thin the Sprocket paper is.
@@ErinSmith also the set up is so pretty 😍
How long are the thermal prints lasting? Will they still be readable in a few years? ten years? If one wanted to be able to look back and review
I’ve only had my printer for about 8 months so I can’t say for sure, but it depends a lot on the paper you use and the conditions your journal is in. If it’s kept in a hot place they will definitely fade faster. I know Phomemo stock a 20-year fade proof paper, so I would stick to that one if you’re worried about it.
i absolutely love the colours and font of the 2023 in watercolour !! do you know the name of the font ? i really like the subtle swirly serif :)
Isn’t it gorgeous? It’s called Libre Baskerville! 😘
Not sure if anyone mentioned that the pouch can be folded on the lines to create a small envelope that closes?
It seems so obvious now that you’ve mentioned it but I truly had no idea 😂
When I made 2023 the water brush blended around the number and does anyone know how to fix it
I mean *bleeded* not blended
You might have had a bit too much water going on 😭 if you have a white paint pen you can use it to colour over the edges once it’s dry, or you can cover it with a bit of paper from the back of your book!
Ok Thanks 😊
❤👍🏼
🥰🥰
Do I need a new notebook every year or can I continue in the one I am using since its not full yet?
You can absolutely continue using your current one if it isn’t full! My first bujo was Sept 2017-Dec 2018.
@@ErinSmith thank you! I started around a year ago and find it really interesting to learn new stuff !
🥰😘🤩😍
🥰💕
What printer was that??
The Phomemo M02 mini printer! I have a whole video about it in case you’d like to learn more 😉 th-cam.com/video/UMcet85LUPs/w-d-xo.html
Too much work for the tracing part, next time fill the white area of the paper with graphite and then trace directly with a pointed edge over whichever surface you're gonna use, the graphite will transfer itself and leave an outline of your desired shapes. Like a carbon copy.
I’ve done that many times - I actually found this way easier! 😂
