How To Improve Your Handwriting
My Instagram bio says that I am a graphic designer with nice handwriting. It says this because I think it’s a fun way of telling the internet I do calligraphy.

My 2022 Bullet Journal Set Up & Planning System
I seem to mention this in every post I write but I graduated from university in 2021 and this has caused several changes in my life.

What Is A Commonplace Book & How To Use It
I want to talk about something a little different today. I know my blog mostly focuses on bullet journals. But there are also other forms of journaling out there. One type of journal I’ve become fascinated with recently is the commonplace book. I’ve come across people talking about commonplace books before, but I’ve always had […]
