No stress doing a minimalist journal when you have a handwriting like that, it'll look beautiful no matter what.
Toffnm I'm not sure if you do any stamping, but you can get calligraphy letter stamps that you can use.
Toffnm and
Toffnm I don't think this is very minimal at all. Have you seen Ryder's video explaining bullet journaling as it was originally done? There really shouldn't be stress in it. It's a productivity tool. It's supposed to reduce stress.
You mean your handwriting isn’t like that? Thought everyone could write like that!
I really liked seeing all the stuff that you found didn't work for you - good reminder that not every style works for everyone. I know I had to scale mine waaaaay back when I started bullet journalling - the fancy spreads were too much structure for me.
I love minimalist bullet journals. I watched video's of regular ones and I get claustrofobic just by looking at those video's, some people keep track of every single thing, it's only time- and energy consuming to keep track of those useless things. The one in this video is muuuuuuch better. It's not overwhelming by the shitload of text you have in the regular ones. I love this one! Simple, fast, you have a clear overview. Thank you for giving me ideas!
with the gratitude log - i keep one but dont put in the dates ahead of time, no pressure to write in it everyday - only when you feel like it, or when you have that "wow, im so glad that..." moments ... and once that page is full start another
I feel like that would be so much more meaningful when you review it and Terry to use it to raise your vibration. Because you have feeling behind it instead of obligation to think of something to be grateful for.
I love how honest you are about not needing to make everything perfect!
i do like watching all the nice colourful bullet journals but i find them so time consuming and the original bullet journal was a way of keeping all event/thoughts/etc together and being easy and simple and i feel that when i first started out i was more focused on how it look and it was just so stressful that i didn't enjoy it . But now mine is simple and easy to use and it doesn't take me a whole sunday night to write it all out . I've customised it to myself but stuff with Ryders version more than the intricate ones we see now . Im not saying i don't like the other version i just personally do not have the time to do it otherwise i probably would haha as they're so pretty
Same, I've been thinking about starting one and all the fancy ones make it seem so intimidating and like a big time sink. Some of them aren't even really bullet journals anymore, which is fine, but it kinda defeats the purpose
I think they're ridiculous, personally
LOVE how you're showing the ways that didn't work for you. Makes the process so much less intimidating! Super inspired: thanks!
So jealous of your calligraphy abilities! Thanks for this video I'm getting started with bullet journaling and found it very useful :)
+CharliMarieTV stay tuned I'm going to be doing a whole series on lettering as well as producing some free worksheets for people to practice along with! Really glad the video helped Xxx
Really? I'll subscribe then. I've always envied other people's fancy writing
KELANJO
Will you please? I visit often to see if you have new content and haven't seen much and you're very inspiring. Hope to see you soon! Hellos from Massachusetts....Laura😃🌐📚✏
CharliMarieTV: Oops incorrect word, jealous. Envy vs Jealousy: Envy is the emotion of coveting what someone else can do, is doing, what they own, their capability, and the like. Jealousy is the emotion related to fear of something you have will be taken away by someone else as in the saying “the green eyes of jealousy “. Using the correct word does make a difference.
I've been wanting to start a bullet journal for a while but all the videos and pinterest boards I see are mostly filled with the really decorated pages and I got intimidated and overwhelmed by them. However, yours really settled my mind that it is really simple and to really try out what works so thank you so much for this!
I'm thinking that this is my favorite minimalist bullet journal so far! I follow a few people but, gosh ! these pages are so beautiful.
Hey! Thanks for this video! You were the first person I heard (after watching a whole bunch of videos) who acknowledged the fact that you just did trial and error to figure out what worked for you and what not. Very useful! A lot of other vloggers present their journal as if they just found this holy grail of working right of the bat. So thanks! O, and I love your accent ;)
I think this was the most useful bullet journaling video I've ever seen! I want to get into doing a BuJo but never had the courage to do it since I have tried many diaries before and quit within weeks or a month so you might have just helped me get into this practice! I love how clean you are and that you aren't afraid to experiment (I am, a little too much for my liking). I do wish you'd elaborate some more on the level 10 things you showed us and maybe do some 10-minute challenge on creating the templates and stuff (helps people like me to convince themselves to try and do it myself).
One of the best setups I've seen! I loved that you went through what worked and what didn't and gave a lot of alternatives
I love how you experiment to find what works for you. That’s what it’s all about. That’s the reason I haven’t been able to stick to regular planners, because they didn’t work for my needs. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks. Neat. Some of the journals I have seen in other videos go completely against the original idea. Basicaly it's procristination under cover of organization. I like that you try to keep it simple and sometimes have a little pleasure of decorating it. The original idea for the bullet journal is to be simple, and easy to keep up with. Thank you for your video, I like your accent.
Your handwritten typography is beautiful! I really want to start a bullet journal now after seeing this!
The most realistic bullet journal I've ever seen so far. No overwhelming stickers, drawings, etc. 👌
Love that you're sharing your "imperfect" journal... makes me feel easier about starting
So great to hear a northern accent on TH-cam! Looking forward to more videos, love from over the Pennines xx
Totally dig. I like how candid your approach was/is.
I'm researching bullet journals and this is my favourite video I've watched so far! This minimalist style is right up my street!
Love these. Get so overwhelmed by some of the more ornate and colourful spreads. Your handwriting and calligraphy is amazing. Tfs
Beautiful journal. I totally agree: it's NOT about perfection. : ) We all have to find what works best for us. Your handwriting is A+! Thanks for sharing.
I love how you show your mistakes and were honest about all the sections that didn't work for you. I want to start this but it seems so overwhelming!! Thanks for being real about your process !
I like how simple your bullet journal is! Ik there’s a lot of bullet journals on instagram and on YT that do extravagant spreads or detailed decoration, but i like how you keep your bullet journal simple b/c that’s more practical for every day use. Nice video!
This is lovely. Best thing about this video was you actually showed what worked and what didnt and where couldnt keep up with the spreads. Also that you didnt stress over making mistakes. Thats how it can be a productive tool.
Thank you 😊
This is the best bullet journal I’ve seen! So simple and zero distractions.
Wished I saw your video 2 weeks ago. It would have save me some good money. Lol because yeah Im shippin from very far away so I wanted to buy it all at once..and God..I did. And when I started doodling -training before my stuffs reach me- I realized that those pretty ones are time consuming.. as much as I loved it, I dont wanna spend a full hour during the week just laying out a spread. It is supposed to help being productive and not be overwhelming or chore-felt. Really nice BuJo..looks great and lovely. Life is simple.
I love love love that you showed whatdidnt work. I keep getting stressed about future appointments and writing them in and having enough room for each month to write everything. And then having all the months mixed up with the information. But you’ve proved I need to be less ridged.
I found it extremely instructive for you to show what didn't work for you and all that was in the journal. It really helped me see what might work or not work for me. Thank you.
Seeing the things you tried that didn't work really helped. Keeping it simple seems to be the way to go.
I'm just starting bullet journalling and really enjoyed the simplicity, but useful way your layouts are. Thank you.
I love your weekly spread. For a guy, a minimalist BUJO is the way to go. I use the same method.
I like how simple and easy you have the daily logs together with the day, month together and underneath the day of the week.
Love that you showed the pages that didn't really work for you too! Super helpful video! 😊
Your calligraphy skills are phenomenal. Seriously - you could sell that as a font!
this is my favorite bujo video so far. the simplicity of yours didn't rattle my anxiety like the others. i'm trying to declutter my mind, not overwhelm it.
+legslikewhoa so pleased you liked it 😊
Love that you aim to put more Hygge in your life! It's the best thing about Danish culture, and it's definitely worth spreading
SO glad you're back wish you could un private all of our old vlogs they where hilarious! X
This is so gratifying to see that I am not the only one who tries to make something beautiful that just doesn't work for me. Great vlog!
Being best version of yourself has always been my goal ❤
Welcome back Kelly! Lovely video very informative hopefully see more of you around TH-cam! Have a lovely Sunday! 💜
Thank you ! Love to see the progress over time ! Love the simplicity ! Starting mine as soon as I receive it in the mail.
I love the page of the currently reading and the bookshelf you drew, so cute!
As someone who's trying for to get in bullet journaling for the second time, this video was really helpful for me. I like the extensive colorful layouts, but I'm still a little but nervous about spacing and everything - so your minimalist setup really appeals to me, it's beautiful yet easy to set up. And seeing all of your trial and error gave me a bit of a confidence boost in just getting into it and trying out the journal =)
thanks for walking me through your process, i am just getting started and I can see it will take a few trials to find what works for me. your video was just the right length and pace.
I love this! I tried bullet journaling back in January--I loved the concept but I spent so much time trying to make it beautiful that it really became unproductive so it kind of fell apart. I'm bought a new notebook literally today with the intention of giving it another go, and your video is certainly motivating me and give me some perspective that it doesn't have to be elaborate! Thanks for posting!
Although you used mainly black pen, your planner is still AMAZING!!! Love your calligraphy sooooooo much!!!! One of my favorite planner video
This was perfect! Really like that you don't go overboard. I got a lot of nice simple and not-time-consuming ideas from this video. Thanks! :)
Starting my bujo today and I just found your video. Love it! I have been looking for true Minimalist ideas and yours are the best so far. I especially love that you share what didn't work. All the bujos I've seen so far are too fancy, perfect, and intimidating. Your style is clean, pretty and inspiring! Good job!
Love the Book list and filling in the spine. Once you found your groove, your layout was great.
Thank you for keeping this simple, too much design defeats the purpose to me of the BUJO
Love this as I was just the same. I started one as colourful and really really complicated!! Whereas now it's quite plain but I do use it a lot more.x
This was so helpful. I'm glad I'm not the only one who is constantly changing the organization method of my bujo. Great accent!
This has been my favorite bullet journal video so far (and I've watched loads). It's so simple and definitely what I need.
Super simple approach but looove the style!
I absolutely love your calligraphy, it's beautiful. And thank you for sharing a different (and a lot less overwhelming) way of bullet journaling x
I love your minimalist style, it's so simple and clean!
The best bullet journal I came across. Wish I had seen it a bit earlier.
This is so simple and beautiful! I am a fan of watching the fancy BoJu, but I may need to try something much more simple and reasonable like this. Beautiful!
Thanks so much for your lovely comment 🙂
Really needed this video. I keep losing enthusiasm with my BuJo and I think it's because I'm aiming too high and it's just too much effort. Going to try and keep it simple next week.
Awesome set up and love your handwriting and calligraphy! Lovely inspiration!
I love how you embrace the process rather than trying to make everything perfect. I love love love that. Thank you. I'm starting out my bullet journaling, and it's so nice to see your video. I love that you have a Hygge challenge! I hope you visit Edinburgh soon! It's cozy and hygge everywhere =) Cheers from California! Jennifer
my mom explained to me what a bullet journal was and then set me up with some videos. i really liked this video and found it helped me a lot. thanks so much!!!
I like how you split Sat/Sun ... think I will try the same this week.
Thank you for sharing this with us :) It's great to know that making the perfect bullet journal doesn't have to be a clear journey and it does take a lot of trial and error! Really useful and it does make me think that I might be able to do my own after all :)
Loved this!!!!! Simple & functional yet beautiful ❤️ Fantastic!!
I just love your design! It's so clean and fresh!
So glad to see you back Kelly ❤ you've been very missed
Love the minimal set up. This looks easy. Wants me make to start a bullet journal.
Love the hygge idea! Got so many great inspires for my new 2018 journal!
really enjoyed your video, thank you for sharing. nice to see a clean and simple layout that works - and very nice to hear your lovely accent!
'Girl On A Train' is brilliant, the book that is, a great read
I'm thinking of starting my own bullet journal and it was nice to see all the things that didn't work for you. Makes me feel better about the experimentation that is probably coming ahead.
I absolutely fell in love with your design and a probs gonna use the ideas in my own bullet journal, thank you so so much xx
You are clearly talented, but I love the way you tried various styles and methods, only to come back to Ryder Carroll’s original method, simple and functional. Thanks for sharing!
This suits my taste the best, thank you!
I really like this and your narrative. Thank you
Thanks so much Rosalyn Xx
Thank you so much for your fantastic and straight forward video. I have been sitting here for hours watching BJ videos which often turned out to be about everything except Bullet Journalling it was so good to come across yours. Your no frills attitude to Bullet Journaling was like a breath of fresh air and you have made it so much easier for me , I stopped worrying and now I can get my act together in the morning (it is almost 12.30 here so off to bed very soon) . Your advice is fantastic your honesty about what did not work for you was so helpful. I could go on and on but I can honestly advise anyone starting up for the first time to look at your video and not waste lots of time. I can honestly say I have been worrying about it for months and here it is New Years Eve and all Have done is my year at a glance which I now think may have been a waste of time, it seems to me I will be doubling up on some things but I guess I will learn that as I go and after listening to you I will hopefully save myself a lot of time and worry thank you so much and I will be following you. Happy New Year yours sincerely Isabel.
@Isabel Patchett - You sound so much like me! I just stumbled across Bullet Journaling today and am almost hyperventilating at even the thought of trying one when, as this video stresses (no pun intended) - the whole point is to organize one's time/life/thoughts, etc.
I love this! Honestly one of the best bullet journal videos I've watched... I liked how you showed us even the stuff that wasn't working, and explained why. Lots of food for thought. Plus, this sort of monochrome, simple, but still cute aesthetic is exactly what I want mine to look like! Although I'm thinking about a floral theme as well... maybe black and white line drawings of botanical things???
So happy to see a video from you!!
You've given me a lot of ideas and inspiration for my bullet journal. Thank you!
I just chanced upon ur channel. And oddly out of the many bullet journal videos I've watched, I love yours so much! Yours is the perfect definition of nothing is perfect! I love this!
Thank you for this very helpful video. I'm just getting started with my bullet journal. I'm a bit of a perfectionist, stationery junkie, paper crafter, and over-thinker. I'm hoping the bullet journal style will help me learn to "just turn the page" and move on. I've already made one mistake in my journal (only got about 3 pages done before I got mired down in all the options) which is kind of liberating - like the first scratch on your new car. There, it's done, it's can't be perfect anymore, deal with it. You've given me the courage to go ahead and start, then adapt as necessary.
Can't help but recommend for your reading challenge Michael Dirda for a book on books or reading. His "Classics for Pleasure" is wonderful.
Your journal is my absolute favourite! Please carry on with these videos :)
Very helpful!
What a gorgeous bullet journal. I love your style. I love your Pinterest boards too. I live in Baildon btw! Small world.
Wonderful!!! your bullet journal is perfect!!!
This is very fast and effective, I like the way you keep it simple!
Your calligraphy/lettering is absolutely beautiful!! That's something I struggle with a lot in my journal. I write fairly small and can't make bolder pens or larger writing work well.
Thank you so much for this video :D I've been looking for minimalist inspiration! xx
Loved this! Excited to see what else you'll be posting xx
can't wait for your lettering tutorial! I love that pen, I have it too but I would love to use it like you do!
Thanks for this explanation of your bullet journal. I'm starting out with my own this was big help!! 👍
Really enjoyed this, bring on your next video!
Ps I have just had a look at other followers comments and it seems like I am one of many who appreciate what you have done here. Keep it up girl there are a lot of us out here who need your advise.
I love your simple bujo!
I love it. Thank you very much for sharing all the information, particularly all the failures since I think there is the knowledge to draw from.
Absolutely love your honesty, I've been trying to do an Erin Condren diary and found it's not working for me so Thankyou for showing your journey and what worked vs didn't work for you
Welcome back! Can't wait to see more of your videos :) x
That's exactly what I came to for my weekly spreads as well!
