a magical planner setup · plan march with me in real time

For March, I asked for suggestions of what to chat about for a real time video! Grab your planner and let’s get creative together while I chat about motherhood, dogs, the new BTS album, starting a bullet journal KZbin channel, and more.

[@lonely5581]

I really appreciate the fact that you decided to not show your baby's face until he's given consent. It is so incredibly important to keep a child's persona safe since there are so many things that can go wrong!! Loved the video btw, take care

[@tuanh5987]

Please keep doing long videos like this. I can't get enough of your soothing voice and your neat handwriting.

[@CurtisSheeran]

Tú Anh i totally agree

[@SS-yn1dz]

Totally agree

[@naxquire2618]

Have you thought of starting a podcast? I sat here listening to your voice while doing things and it is so calming. That voice needs to be heard more. Love the spread. 🧡

[@katelynruiz2230]

Please make a video about all of the stationary supplies you have, I don’t care how long it is I would just love to see all that you have and if you could just say the brand names during the video or link them below the video. Thank you so much!

[@allthingsann]

I “watched” (mostly listened to your soothing voice) this while i was driving home from work (which is about an hour away) and it was the most perfect thing to listen to and the best time.

[@Telescopic225]

When I’m ready for bed and boom Notification! Stands up and gets journal and presses play !

[@SaricaStudio]

don't be like me and get your rest! it's a long one 😂 ❤️

[@urbanmiss26]

Me too and it’s 1 am here in Australia lol

[@ay_azulita]

Despite you being exhausted on this new journey, you still managed to do some beautiful set ups! You rock, mama! I think it's great you're keeping your kiddo's face out of social media until he's old enough to decide. Not enough parents with a social media presence take into account we don't know yet how will growing up having your entire life (including very intimate moments) broadcasted on the internet will affect this newest generation's development, mental health... I don't mean to judge people that do share their kids lives on social media (they're really cute, and you're proud, and I get it), but I still think it's great and mindful to let your kid make that choice.

[@Katarjana]

"Troll at me idc, but if you @ my baby....!" I love it. I love it so much.

[@greylilycalligraphy]

Yep. And the exhaustion doesn't go away. Motherhood = tired. The end. Lol. And yes, if he is asleep, sleep. The rest will keep.

[@BETSYWYNNWynnPR]

I have to laugh🤣🤣😄.... your description of exhaustion was fantastic!! Its as if you need to master 14 minute power naps. The unexplainable love and joy, contrasted by the sadness and confusion. There is no book... just be a great mom and the rest will follow. My advice as a seasoned mom..... Get your rest. KZbin and all of us will always be here. Jayden is growing the second, we will wait.🤷‍♀️❤👍

[@ickaal-yusof8819]

I totally understand your struggle since I have a 9m old baby. But as baby grows older, they will sleep longer at night. My baby only wakes up at night when he is hungry and will go back to sleep after his feeding. I rarely have long craft session nowadays, because I often sleep when my baby sleeps. I basically set up my bujo during lunch hour at my workplace.

[@qubyto]

It's so great to see the whole process of setting up bullet journal, and makes me feel so comfortable. Writing my planner is my daily routine nowadays and makes myself enjoy more me time.❤️

[@suzisaintjames]

Think about foods that can be heated in the toaster and microwave. Also, don't limit your self to breakfast foods. Eat whatever is leftover in the refrigerator. You can also make egg muffins or other breakfast casseroles in the evening whilst you are making dinner. Like frying up bacon or sausage patties to have ready to eat in the mornings. 💜🌞🌵

[@marleonabrooks]

Congrats new mom! Make sure you book "me time" when you get overwhelmed. EVERY MOTHER GETS STRETCHED THIN!!!! It's natural. It's OK. YOU GOT THIS 😉

[@CamiWins]

Please more of these ! Especially motherhood talks. I’m a new mom as well and finally found some time to come back to journaling. What you said about flipping out if anyone trolls your son made me laugh out loud and my son actually woke up lol. So please keep em coming. You’re one of my favorite you tubers and I just found you ... mainly bc you’re a new mom and still trying to juggle everything. So so so relatable. 💕 you’re doing great.

[@BB-nx5dj]

Can I just say THANK YOU for doing a video in real time. I found you today because I searched youtube for real time planner vids are there aren't that many. I don't usually make time for myself to decorate my journal and I realized I would if I felt like I was doing it "with" someone. I searched the planner channel I am subscribed to but her's were all sped up so I was so happy to find yours!

[@menm_91]

Curious as to why, when using clear stamps, you do one letter at a time? It would save SO MUCH time if you put the whole word on the acrylic block, THEN stamp it.

[@frogman1]

im guessing its so she can place the letters closer to each other

[@hides0817]

Love these long videos, sometimes your journal and plan with me aren’t enough! It’s amazing that you’re willing to be approachable even in the YT world! Totally get the baby thing, he doesn’t have a choice and why make something like that for him and “angry mama 🐻 “ comes out more than I’d like to, too, when it comes to any remarks about my littles!! Speaking of... baby girl is “Eva the DEVA” too lol but she’s human and not a dog 😂 😜

[@allisarcadia2319]

Yes, finally~! Real time planning videos are the best imo, you get to ACTUALLY plan with the person rather than watch a sped up version of them working. I much prefer these long videos. Even just to have them on in the background while I do something else.

[@sophieleah950]

This is the perfect length and pace to journal along to! Really enjoyed :)

[@saenn26]

I really enjoyed this type of video! I'm listening while playing Stardew Valley! ALSO the planes are NBD. A soothing sound.

[@paulaparkison9667]

Love your work...I just like watching more than listening...but you always inspire!

[@SS-yn1dz]

Learnt a lot from you. Esp how to make doing chores, fun through indulgence with stationery... Along with life lessons that your share are absolutely beautiful n inspiring... You are the fuel I so need at times

[@kinipotra]

I LOVED THIS! Pls pls pls, make more long-format videos! Your voice is super soothing. I feel calm after watching one of your videos I swear

[@kailahmom1]

I really enjoy watching your videos and think your journals are beautiful😊 I know a lot of people asked for longer videos, but I think this one was a little too long. I had to break up my watching time into two sessions. Maybe in the future you can keep them under 30 minutes for longer videos for those of us with short attention spans. Either way I still enjoyed the video and seeing your beautiful work.😊

[@SaricaStudio]

Thanks Karlisha! I'll be making a variety of video lengths 😊 some people like the sped up ones, others really like the hour long videos. Thanks for your feedback!

[@elizajournals]

I am loving your videos. So relaxing to watch and awesome creativity. Beautiful journaling.

[@bobbeduran9277]

Lovely. Thank you for sharing a little about you and your family. All the best to you and your new little family.

[@KirstMathe]

I love this video. I love seeing your creative process in real time. It makes me feel excited to try being creative in my own journal.

[@maddscientist3170]

listening to you talk about your baby reminds me of 43yrs ago with mine.......as a "artist" it was always difficult to produce anything....... yes it was exhausting for sure!! ........when they become toddlers...it is DIFFERENT ........then school (yeah)..............then the later years.......BAM! you are a chauffeur...LOL at this point I "thought" I would be doing my art being retired.......hasn't happened yet...I watch KZbin videos of others creating......LOL...still don't sleep...I am exhausted!

[@anaflaviaguimaraes3964]

I didn't knew you're an army! I'm 15, but i feel you so so much, like i love the boys, their are incredible handsome, but i'm really in love with their personalite and I'm so so proud of them, i can't even express qnd they help me so much through their music... i just love our boys

[@annatheres3]

Really loved this long video. I was drawing while listening to your voice. And it's so nice!

[@maliahawkins5654]

I love your stickers/stamps. You should do a sticker/stamp flip through (if you can remember where you got all of them). I’m in the market for some new ones!!

[@savannahscribbles]

Love these videos 🥰 It honestly was terrifying when I started my account in the beginning, but you never know until you try! You were one of my biggest inspirations when I first started ❤️ and now it just feels so good to apart of this community 🙂

[@reeseclaude5744]

you're the only reason I started bujoooooo, I'm glad I found youuu💙

[@shelialiu2551]

I do love you doing LONG video!!! Really enjoy hearing your chitchat. It's so soothing! :D

[@Piffle512]

I can't believe I haven't commented on this video yet. The long video gives me life. I do love your shorter art videos lately, but I love this. I also super appreciate your BTS chat this. Yassss Namjoon!

[@trinsification]

Hi sarica! If you're using the Elmer's craft bond, it's a repositionable glue stick. I use it for paper when I want it to function as a post-it / sticky note. Hope this helps!

[@gracefoo5425]

This was such a treat!!! Annnnd your voice is so therapeutic!!☺️ Can't wait for the next video!! 💫

[@KatkaSuriKatka]

Watching this with my 10months old son sleeping in a baby carrier :) just needed something relaxing for myself, and this is perfect. Thank you!Also, are those stamps monuments of Prague?? It made me so proud! I was born and raised there, now we live in a village close by but I miss seeing those glorious sites! Haven’t been there for ages because of the covid & the baby... but I used to see the church you have stamped nearly every day while at uni... hope you are having a nice summer!

[@coreandarlionstarot]

Been waiting so long for this!!! It feels so long since you posted last but I know it’s been little more than a week. I’m loving this already 💜 I was wondering how you stored your clear stamps. Do you find they last better in the original packaging and on the plastic backing? Thanks so much! ☺️

[@relm812]

I just found out about u and oh my days ur acc sooooo good can’t stop watching these vids 💞

[@michelemyankazt6657]

If you would push down on the stamp, you can get a much better print.

[@ConstanceWestfall]

I love your spread. You got to find time for yourself.

[@TheWOOTLife]

Always love your journal with me!

[@msalazar413]

Your nails are ON POINT.

[@XPIEXBUNNYX1]

You made my dreams come true 🥺🖤🖤🖤

[@analogs8347]

Sarica! You made my day. I was getting ready for work while watching your video 🤗

[@naifaa.s1457]

1 hour? yeah I love it your journal/planner by@saricastudio✨✨

[@ahouston1989]

Oh my gosh your son and mine are on pretty much the same sleep pattern. I also clean with my little in the front pack! I'm not positive but I think our sons are really close in age. My little dude was born nov 12

[@yaubelinda]

Haha totally didn't expect u to jump from fine art talk to BTS and bigbang 😂 I'm a big fan of Korean idols too and I like these kind of chatty videos too. And ur a superwoman to manage a newborn, doggies, work and housechore and cooking altogether!

[@llucas2008]

It’s strange how you mentioned that you were so exhausted. I’m feeling quite the same and I’ve never felt this way since when I was younger I never wanted to sleep. There’s just so much emotional things going on in life with Covid and families breaking up and aging and restaurants closing. I think our psyche is so overloaded it can’t seem to process. Lord God help us all in Jesus name may He send you an angel. A friend who understands, Liz

[@dassi87]

Thank you for those insights. I finally ordered some stickers from your shop and I am sooo looking forward to using them in my journal oon. =)

[@SaricaStudio]

Thank you so much for your order Stefanie!

Amazing video❤

[@poisonlady1965]

"...washi tape stuck on my hand. I need to use it." I need to remember that! Oh and I have done that "write what you're saying more that oce for sure or I write a totally wrong letter wo word and wonder where that came from lol.

[@andreatthatsme]

Hello. Thank you for your video tutorial. Q: where did you get those cool metal clips AND stickers of the same clips?

[@hypatia2002]

Love that nail polish! What color is it!

[@tonelill76]

From a beginner in BuJo; Do you draw the calendars yourself in your planners or do you print from the internet?

[@virginiaerazo812]

So beautiful!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😍😍😍😊😘🥰

[@virginiaerazo812]

Thank You you are so beautiful And you letter is so beautiful 🤭💞🥰

[@ria563]

Where did you take your red ruler from?)) i has just realized that i kinda needed all the time😅

[@kreativkunst]

May i please ask you what type of sticker sheet you use to print your designs on the transparent paper? I looove the muted look and got myself an early birthday gift in form of a silhouette portrait 2 (i'm a march-baby :-D). It seems quite difficult to find such paper or i look at the wrong places :-( really appreciate any help!!! Thank you from Switzerland

[@SaricaStudio]

hi Susanna, I use onlinelabels clear matte sticker paper! check out the link here: amzn.to/2IfZdYt

[@priscillaCruz2023]

Do you draw your own monthlies?

[@vindevinvin24]

Beautiful pages! Glad to watch how you work on decorating all those pages in real time, always curious how bullet journalers do it. That HP theme transparent sticker is so cute. I use versamagic chalk inks on my TN grid insert but they always leave quite visible traces on the back page. I don't see it happening on your pages (at least not as visible). Are you using different kind of versamagic inks? What kind of TN insert do you use?

[@SaricaStudio]

Thank you! I'm using the dot grid insert and the versamgic colors I used are quite light. check out the links in my description for the specific ones!

[@vindevinvin24]

@@SaricaStudio Thank you for the quick reply. I will check the links.

[@jocelline8966]

I missed your video

[@theyarnycaterpillar3563]

Honey it sound you definally are lacking some vitamins and minerals. If you do, you are more prone to anxiety, depression etc. If you have enough buildingblocks in your body and you're properly nourished, then you are imuun to all this and can handle stress a lot better. I would know because I suffered from it. I kept having a lot of anti-bodies in my body even long after delivery. (Higher count anti-bodies are normal first weeks afer delivery) I definally lacked vit. D in my bloodtest. But taking liposomal vit. C helped a lot to. Not that my doctor recommended that. But I read Weston E. Price and followed some forums. And basically some health coaches and doctors on youtube recomend much more vitamins and source minerals then recomended in fda daily dose. Anyway I would definally recomend researching for yourself. I love taking time for myself and feed my dry skin Aloe Vera. Taking feet baths with extra magnesium etc. when the kids sleep #metime 😊 Edit: btw, you are totally right about protecting your family and you being mama bear, is not overreacting. That's totally normal and not caused by vit. shortage but only mama love 😉

[@wonderwonder30]

I guess I missed your post on instagram but the question I have is, you have a great website, do you have any recommendations for a website and does it take a lot of time to keep up with the maintenance? I have been doing some research on how I would like my website to look but it’s not the same as when you get the website setup, ya know. And if you don’t mind me asking, was the cost a lot upfront to start the website? This was a great video, love watching in real time.

[@SaricaStudio]

thanks Stephanie! i use squarespace for my website. it's $90 for a yearly subscription and they have different plans. there's a 2 week free trial if you just want to try it out first!

[@wonderwonder30]

Sarica Studio, thanks for the response! Wow, I thought having your own website was more expensive, I guess I was looking at the wrong information hehe. Good info, I will check out squarespace. Thanks again!
