Christmas planning with Mimi part 4

Preparing for Christmas with Mimi part 3
Today’s post is the latest instalment in our Christmas planning series (it’s never too early to plan!) written by the delightful Mimi from Little Sips of Tea. March slipped by… Some of you may have noticed that my monthly Christmas planning guide did...
That time I lost my bullet journal…
It was very nearly a disaster. It was a Sunday. I’d done my weekly planning in the morning, organised my calendar for the week and made my lists. I’d been to a meeting at my studio, written down all the points, measured up my space so I could buy...
4 questions to ask when planning for 2018
There’s just over a month until 2018 starts which for me means it’s time to start thinking about 2018 and what my plans will be. Plus it’s a handy distraction from dealing with Christmas preparation and worry about what to gifts to buy for the 3 secret santa schemes I...
Staying seasonally organised
I’ll be honest, I mean “seasonal” as in “Christmas”, as I write this. I love the idea of having different organisation systems that run with the natural seasons, but frankly I have enough difficulty staying organised as it is! Without...
I’m a bad penpal

List overwhelm (and how to deal with it)
Lists! Lists of lists of lists of lists… they’re great, but sometimes they can get a bit much for even the most enthusiastic of list-makers *raises hand sheepishly*. My beloved bullet journal is still going strong, and has been something of a life saver in...
Craving routine
No, I didn’t ever think I would crave it either. I like to think I’m a free spirit and that the combination of being creative and a multipod means I can just wing it on a daily basis. (“It” being, you know, life, food, work, self care, all the...
How to put off Christmas planning
It’s the time of year to find all kind of other things to do rather than face up to planning for Christmas. I should be making a list of people to send Christmas cards to and then deciding what type of card to send. Will it be an e-card and a donation to...
How do you set monthly intentions in a bullet journal?
I really struggle with setting intentions. I've been finding the monthly intentions page in my bullet journal the most challenging thing to fill in. What do I want from the month ahead? is a question that vexs me. Mostly I want to have crossed lots of things off...
Bullet journalling in a new notebook
It's the third week of my bullet journalling efforts and I've finally managed to draw something on a daily page! This week saw me add in a daily 'to cook' section as well as separating out my activities. While I suspect my layout will continue to...Get featured on our blog!
