March 2024 Planner Update | Hobonichi, Reading Journal, Take A Note, Bullet Journal

[@ChantelleArts]

it's lovely that you've got photographs in your journal too, the pages are so pretty 🥰

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Thank you Chantelle!

1. The pictures of your nephew make me smile. ❤ 2. I love the Uniqlo cross body bags. I can't carry a purse any more (silly arthritis in my hands) They are convenient and have a surprising amount of room 3. I'm excited by the vellum restock and self-care cards. New note pad? One could have a whale. 😅 4. If they stationery business goes South (knock on wood) I think you could open a bakery. Oh and before you specified "friends" I liked the idea of you randomly gifting people you meet with cookies. (Coffee shop workers, check out people at stores, neighbors, ect.) I hope you have a week full of delightful moments. ❤

Thanks for always being an inspiration Helen! And all the doodles tutorials and recipe

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Thanks so much 😊

[@walkingexercise5375]

Your planner updates are wonderful! Love the cat stickers! Also love seeing the desserts you bake! The music playlist is a nice idea! Would love to hear about your favorite music artists and your favorite songs and your knitting projects!

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Thank you so much!!! I can definitely show it off when I make a bit more progress hehe

[@Planningwithprosecco]

My friends and I call Thursday “Little Friday” 😊

Hi Helen, lovely video as always! For the reading journal: going with rings or discs could be a solution. That way you could keep what you've already written, and you could even print out what's in digital form and punch holes to those papers too. And you can add pages as you need for each book you read. Sending lots of love!

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Great idea!!!! I love the suggestion of rings so I can move pages around. Thank you!

[@Whatttupv]

Helen I love the idea of adding images on the left side of the pages in the T.A.N ❤

[@relaxandhobby]

Always look forward to these recap flip-through videos. Thanks Helen!

[@lizasaguin]

Your Take A Note spreads are goals ;") photos on the weekly overview is such a good idea! I'll try to add to mine but it'll be a bit tricky w/ it being in A6 haha but thank you for sharing your journal!

[@AileenTownsend]

Brown butter chocolate chip cookies w/maldon is my family most requested! It is soooo delicious ❤ Your gift to your nephew will be such a cherished keepsake.

[@sircoocoo]

oooo the call was soooo good !! i recommend it to anyone who hasnt seen it!!

[@ApricityLife]

Love all your updates! I use rings for my book journal because I also start and stop books at random. I used to do a daily stream of consciousness of what I was reading that day, which was fun, but it became annoying when I would have weeks between putting a book down, reading something else and then restarting. 😂

[@sherrycohen1824]

I love your reading journal. I had planned to start one this year, but I've had to drive family members to a lot of doctors since January, and I don't have a place to jot down notes. I wish I'd done this for the book I recently finished for my book club discussion, which was this morning. It was Lady Tan's Circle of Friends by LIsa See. There were lots of characters and events to discuss, and I wish I'd had notes. I highly recommend the book, by the way.

[@raindrop-jrnl]

it's always a good day when I see a helen video in my subscription inbox eheh

[@draganascrafts]

Love to see your journals filled out 😍 so gorgeous 💕

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Thank you so much!

[@hammouchenassima3660]

I love your planner updates ❤❤❤❤

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Thank you so much!

[@juliaa6373]

My sistem for notebook which i anotate my thoughts and reactions to any enternament format is i do my notes chronological and my review of what i finish i do do in another book, this way i don't have to calcute how much space to leave for a show/ book/ movie

[@bookearts]

I want a Take a note planter so baaaad but they are sold out everywhere 😮‍💨 anyway, I absolutely love love love your video Helen, as always. You're a real inspiration ⭐

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Ahhh thank you! Hopefully they do a restock :(((

[@elizabethmartinez7828]

Great video, as always. For the acrylograph pens, it’s easier to get a blank paper and just pump the tip repeatedly until the ink flows out. 🫶💕

[@journalwithblessing]

You can just tip in an additional sheet or half sheet where you need it for the book

[@asarelahlynn]

I love the color of your nails! My favorite color 🩵

[@bumblebeeimbe]

You can always try a ring or disc bound system for a reading journal. I converted a A5 hobonichi cover into a rings planner and use that as a reading journal.

[@marzettik]

Love a planner update. ❤

[@bobbigroves1102]

LOVE LOVE the planners!!!!

[@Craft00980]

[@tatianavelasco1335]

[@tatianavelasco1335]

thank u @@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo

[@kimikobuford]

Happy Sunday Helen❤❤❤

[@MzAbstractMind]

“The Call” with Jeon Jong-seo? 😳 if so, OMG! I LOVE that movie. I never hear ppl mention it. The American version is also good. Your friend has good taste ☺️ I should start doing some of these journal ideas 🤔💜

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Yes!!! It was so so good hehe

[@MindfulVespers]

Have you listened to Huberman’s latest podcast about a specific type of journaling? I thought of you 😊 (and I’m still grappling with the news of him)

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Ooo no I haven't listened! But yeah..... that article was a wild ride haha

[@lorilou3141]

Love!

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Thank you!!!

[@mandir5615]

Do you know of any other planners that are set up similar to the take a note planner?

[@theminnesotawitch]

Sending love Helen!!

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Thank you!!!

[@alvieplanningco.3269]

Which blank ink would you recommend for the twisbi eco drive fountain pen? I read that you use document ink but I don’t think this should be put into the twsbi. I used diamine onyx black before but it was not a very pigmented black :(

[@findvivien]

Is there a video on what printer you use for the photos? I’ve been looking for one.

[@CWsmarty]

Sorry if this has been answered before, but what is the fountain pen you’re using for the De Atramentis red ink? Is it a TWSBI? 🥰

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

No need to be sorry! Yes twsbi eco ^_^

[@ZayaPlans]

love this

[@ElizabethCalderónGuzmán]

Saludos, que la alegría del día re acompañe😊😊😊😊🍞

[@emilylackey3840]

Hi, Helen! What photo printer to you use? I really like the size! Do you have one of the little portable printers?

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Hello! No I just use a regular inkjet office printer and cut out the photos with scissors!

[@LinzyLouG]

Hi Helen! I'm SO excited vellum might be coming back! Is there a sale coming on the 6th? Also, is the pink ink the Cosmos Flower pink? I have that one but wasn't sure. It looks so pretty in your journal! :) thx! xo Lindsey

[@alinesoares6637]

Yay!!

[@raganbogankatza8644]

it was a bit difficult for me to watch this video because my friend is taking a nap so i couldnt turn up the volume, my cat slept on my friends foot but was send flying as my friend turned in her sleep so the cat came to me. i am laying on the beanbag with my pc and the cat kept hitting the touch mouspad (idk if its the right english word i am not nativ english speaking) causing the video to pause or get fast forwarted XD but nice video as far as i can tell XD♥

[@deniseholmes7958]

March often is hard for me too. Old stuff falling apart to make way for new things. Spring cleaning so to speak. Let's hope April brings more sunshine and happy days! Thanks as always for your wonderful videos. ❤💐❤

[@TheCoffeeMonsterzCo]

Thank you so much! I hope you have a great weekend ^_^

[@stevesmith4319]

up date your reading .

[@strellic]

Necesito estos videos en español 😢

[@mamahnita]

OMG the baby is getting big fast too fast

[@yan4581]

please cover your nephews face when recording

[@ChristinaPlans]

This sounds ridiculous, how about one book note going from front to back, then start another page in the back for a second book, from back to front?
