your dad is adorable, so proud of the box haha! i am loving these days at my desk, and your channel in general. my friend & i are starting a journal swap, inspired by yours - so excited!
Hhaha he really is! I'm so glad, it means so much that you enjoy this series and the channel 💖 Omg that is so fun!!! I'm so excited for you! What kind of journal will you use for it do you think??
Your Morning Pages are YOURS, so change the rules to fit YOUR life. I do 3 pages (not spreads) in miscellaneous journals that are about A5 size, and I don't spend any more than 20-30 minutes each day because...life! I still get a lot of benefit from the practice.
That’s a relief to hear! Julia Cameron is pretty adamant about doing anything as long as you do three pages, but it’s just not working well 🥲🥲🥲 thank you for your wisdom 💖
@@notablyemilytrying to keep to her strict rules pit me off the whole thing for almost a year. Changing it to 1 page (more if I want) made me look forward to the process! Artists are fluid and individual, the opposite of rigid rule followers!
Yes I agree! I see why that’s her suggestion but damn I’d rather do something than nothing 🥲🥲🥲 That’s a great way to do it too, just one page really takes the pressure off :)
@@notablyemily I find it is like working out - if I have a bare minimum it gets me moving, and often I exceed the expectation. I'm glad you are adjusting to fit your needs, and I truly believe you'll get just as much (if not more) out of it!
With regards to the amount of spreads expected of a person if you follow the Artists Way exactly, I think it's too much pressure to put upon yourself to do that every single day. It's just draining. I'm very glad to hear that you're reducing the amount. Even one page is great!
It IS draining! You're so right! What a good way to put it. It's true, even just one page is great :) I know part of the work is supposed to be pushing through to get to three pages no matter what but in practice it makes it so much harder to want to journal at all 🥲 Thank you for your support, it makes me feel better that I'm not doing it """perfectly""" lol!! :)
Really loved the laser wood cutout, such a cool idea! I've also been eyeing the tono and lims ink but haven't make the jump yet, seeing how vibrant they look in your video makes me wanna get them!
Yes it’s quite vibrant in person!! It’s the only one of theirs I tried, I would definitely recommend that one if you want something bright 🤩 Which ones are you looking to get from them??
@@notablyemily Something coco/beige/chocolate brown/almondy if that makes sense. I know they just back in stock at paper plus cloth so I'm excited to go in person and see the swatches irl :D
In regards to morning pages, I think it says in the book that you should get up half an hour early to do them. Six A5 pages does not take me half an hour, it takes at least one, maybe one and a half because I write very small. So I've adjusted to three A5, because that takes 30-40 minutes, which still has that effect of brain drain/idea generation that they're "supposed" to have. Definitely agree on changing it to fit your life and needs!
The box is so perfect! I've been looking for something exactly like that for my field notes, but I guess the trick is to make it myself 😂. Yours is beautiful 😍 .
Thank you!! I really love it, I'm now thinking of all the other things I can make with my dad 😆 For your Field Notes, if you're in Canada, Noteworthy Stationery has a pre-order open right now for the offical Field Notes storage box! It is a little pricey at $65, but you may qualify for free shipping too! shopnoteworthy.ca/products/field-notes-archival-wooden-box?_pos=1&_sid=16eaf0d97&_ss=r

@VitaA007 that’s a great analogy!! I am glad too, I don’t want to start resenting my journals 😅😅

PAPA NOTABLY LOLLLLL he does not sell them but FOR YOU 🤩 maybe I can work something out 😏

Yes same here it takes soooo long! I’m glad you’ve cut it down to fit your needs too 😊 Thank you for the encouragement 💖

What if you tied the beads to the top of the bookmark? Then it can be as long as you make it 😂 the dangly bits add a lot of personality!
This is a GREAT idea I’m going to do that today!! LOL dangly bits 😂😂😂 I agree it’s so fun to make your journal your own!!!
