    This was so deeply satisfying to watch!! And I LOVED the way the original title page looked!! I am tearing through the links, and can't seem to find the number stamps you used. The way they look, and the fact that they are portions of the year to mix and match is FANTASTIC!!

    • @MyLittleJournal

      Thank you so much dear 🥰 Most of the stamps I used are from older companies or they are sold out. So I can’t even link them to my video 😞

    I just wanted to thank you for all the detail you shared, including the links, and for inspiring me! I just discovered reading journals and am fascinated , I’ve always been a huge reader and lately I had begun to think I needed to dive a little deeper with each book instead of reading and moving to the next without thinking too much about it. This is exactly what I need to help me do that and keep track. I wish I had at least kept a list of all I have read starting decades ago, but I can start now!

    This is awesome! Thank you for making a reading journal that was completely your own and that doesn't look the same as so many do in other videos. I've been down the rabbit hole of book journaling videos and they're filled with so many who need to announce what brand pens they're using, what their thematic color for the year or spread is, their choice of stickers and ephemera that get layered on so thick they have to remove pages in their journals to get it close properly... only to start another book for the new year even if they haven't filled one book! I liked that you kept your spread decoration simple and made it more about the books than the art.
    I started my own book journaling last year and I used some of the simplest spreads and trackers, but still looking for ideas on what to do. I still haven't filled my book and will probably still be using it for '25.

      Thank you so much dear!! That truly means a lot to me 🥰 I totally agree with you. I’ve watch so many videos and they all start to look the same. It’s hard to find inspiration anymore because everybody is doing the same thing. There’s nothing wrong with that but if it’s not your style or what you’re looking for it starts to become very repetitive and boring.

    Your Book Shelfie spreads are always so cute! I'm restarting doing book journals in 2024 (I did some YEARS ago, but it was when I just finished grad school and was reading one book at a time and the way I was doing it wasn't sustainable when I really started reading more and faster since I no longer had school - and I'm up to about 180 books a year, so it really wouldn't be sustainable my old way, lol). I do a little book tracking in my regular journaling - I'm primarily a digital tracker for numbers, etc. - so I think I'm going to do "reviews" by month as I finish books, kind of in a mix of collage (like Hedda at Mochibujo) and minimal (like Elizabeth at Plant Based Bride, I really like how she changes the size of her review "boxes" depending on what she wants to say, etc) in a series of NT Original Size notebooks (these are just a little bit too small for my daily journaling but I think will work for this) and then do what I did in 2023 which was put my reading challenges, etc. in a B5 (continuing in the same one I used in 2023) because I really liked having all the space to list my bingos and challenge prompts :)

    • @MyLittleJournal
      @MyLittleJournal  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I try not to buy books. We are fortunate to have library apps that let you read or listen to books for free. So a lot of the books I read are borrowed from the library. If I do buy books it’s usually from secondhand shops or they were gifted. As for stickers I usually buy them from Etsy and I wait until my favorite shop has a big sale. Usually on Black Friday 😁 You should definitely look on Etsy because they usually ship free when you purchase over a certain amount. I hope this helps ♥️
