Karin Marker Review Part 2: The Re-Do

It's been about 9 months since I got my Karin Brushmarker Pro set as a Christmas present to myself. I wrote an initial review which you can find here.

This week, … Continue reading Karin Marker Review Part 2: The Re-Do →

Why I still use a Sticker Planner

So anyone who follows my blog knows that I have two planning styles. One is distinctly more popular on this blog. My bullet journal gets significantly more attention than my "main" planner. I still use both daily. I wanted to talk a little bit about why I still use my Erin Condren Life Planner and … Continue reading Why I still use a Sticker Planner →

February Bujo (Mid-Month) Update

February is one of those months for a lot of people. It's cold and long (despite it's short length) probably due to the lack of holidays. Most of us are just trying to make it through winter at this point with the mid-month Valentine punctuation. I figured I wanted to update my readers about how … Continue reading February Bujo (Mid-Month) Update →

January Hymn

Hello everyone! Welcome back to my monthly wrap up. Maybe you noticed (maybe you didn't) that I didn't post nearly as much as I hoped to in the month of January. Well, there's a good reason.

How I Make a Furnished Apartment feel like Home

Here I am in year two of living in Spain. I've signed a lease and moved into a room, rather than a whole apartment. Not only does this save me a ridiculous amount of hassle dealing with utilities and internet, it also saves me the money it would take to furnish. Both of my rooms … Continue reading How I Make a Furnished Apartment feel like Home →

July! July! July! Never seemed so Strange!

Here we are, at the end of another month. July. What an obnoxious month. Seriously - I was going nuts. It was about a hundred degrees here daily.

Decluttering with my sister: The finale

So this is the finale about my time decluttering and organizing my sister's house. I wanted to talk not only about the outcome but my experience helping her over ten days. The one disclaimer I'm going to make right from the start is that I did not feel we were "finished" when I left. There … Continue reading Decluttering with my sister: The finale →

The Declutter and Reorganize: Part 2

In December, I visited my sister at her house for the first time in a few years. Since the last time I was able to get to Germany, she had moved three times. Within those moves, she hadn't had a ton of oppertunities to declutter her objects. When I arrived, her guest room was … Continue reading The Declutter and Reorganize: Part 2 →

I thought I would show … Continue reading Pack with me: Planner Supplies →

My Favorite Shops for Stationery

Hello everyone. I'm a stationery addict. I think I always have been. I mean - who didn't love getting their school supplies list in August? There was the rush of new crayons and markers. I loved deciding which brands I wanted to use for notebooks and what folders I wanted to go for. I will … Continue reading My Favorite Shops for Stationery →
