I already set up my book for 2020...but unfortunately...IT WAS SOOOO BAD

[@eetlatuulia]

i have and i love how clear it is but a week in and it's a mess but atleast it works for me

[@Looseey1973]

I've started mine but bow after seeing yours feel like such an under achiever.

[@gracekroon8559]

Cindy Stem yeah, I know what you mean😪

[@TheGooglyminotaur]

Home office: Totally separate space. You go when you are working (to the room) and can’t do house stuff (because you’re “at” work). Outside of the office space? Then you are not at work. I even started keeping two phones so I can leave work at home. Got sick of answering calls at Target. It’s stressful. A solid schedule is helpful too, complete with breaks. I’ve done this system with as little as a desk in my bedroom. Little weird, but I’d walk out, shut the door to my bedroom and came back into my office. You just have to stick to it. I think people get into trouble when they forget that they work from home, as opposed to working anytime you’re at home. Maybe it’s more like your office is at your home, your whole ass home isn’t your office. That’s what I’ve got from 15 years of working from home. Hope there’s something to think about.

[@tangerinejukebox]

TheGooglyminotaur As someone who’s also been self-employed over a decade, I agree with this. If you can’t dedicate a space, try putting away work things, like notebooks or computers when the work day ends. Even try having a personal and work computer account so you log out and don’t go into your work email until morning. It’s so difficult but so worth it for your own well-being. And go for walks, lots of walks to clear your head. 😊

[@persephone3892]

Wow thank you! Great tip. Ive been struggling because i will take breaks from work to clean/cook. I really should "pack a lunch" and schedule another time for cleaning.

[@suestoons]

Totally separate space and computer logins are SO helpful. Even if they are just as simple as a basket to contain your work logs and papers and stationery that can be put away when you're "Off Duty". We had separate binders and computer logins for Farm Stuff. You can still do "lunch at home" but set an alarm and when "lunchtime" is over, back to work you go. Yes, cleaning when you're "off duty" from work is essential. One other thing that people who work outside the home do is change clothes immediately when they get home. Even if it's as simple as changing your shirt or putting on an apron or cleaning supplies thingy, it helps to delineate "work" from "home". In our house, everyone gets half an hour "quiet time" when they get home from work/school/the field before they have to launch into household activities. My additional advice is to share your goals with someone to keep you accountable. When someone queries "Aren't you supposed to be off duty now?" it helps a lot to get you back on track. We had a unique set-up. Himself and I worked at the same off-the-farm-job with rotating shifts aka Tag-Team-Parenting, we both worked on-the-farm, and when Kidlet was small, we had to have a Designated Parent-In-Control [PIC] at all times. Once Kidlet even walked into a room where Himself and I were having a coffee and asked: "Who is PIC?" LOL Neither of us was wearing "off the farm work clothes" and she couldn't tell who was on days off. I also maintained a Family Monthly Whiteboard. We each had our own colour for our shift schedules, Kidlet and school events were in kidlet's colour and anything else [Dr., orthodontist, continuing education classes, swimming lessons, farm deliveries, etc.] were put in the colour of the PIC responsible. So if you have a family wall calendar for a couple of weeks to help you develop a new habit, you might want to mark in your "Work Hours".

My book reccs since you asked: “There is No Good Card For This” -Emily McDowell (A really great resource on navigating other peoples grief loss or other personal difficulties) “Small Fry”-Lisa Brennan-Jobs (A memoir by Steve Jobs’ eldest daughter) “Bossy pants”-Tina Fey (An absolute riot of Tinas personal stories) “The Four Tendencies”, “The Happiness Project”& “Better than Before” all by Gretchen Rubin (One writer’s endeavours to understand humans better) “Joyful” by Ingrid Fetell Lee (Fetell Lee describes the “aesthetics of joy” that make objects and spaces more joyful!) All these books I’ve read since downloading Audible and they are all fantastic

[@PlantBasedBride]

Thank you so much for the recommendations!

[@meganreilly9944]

Kind of random book I found at the library: We the Drowned. It is super gritty and real, although written in a fictional style. Also like 600 pages so it's a commitment

I was so intrigued on your use of the ruler and stencil. Such a Rad Set-Up

[@KirstMathe]

This is beautiful. I’m always so blown away by how creative your spreads are. It’s just the right amount of flare so that it’s not too busy - just how I like my bujo to be. Love watching your channel for inspo!!!

There's always something so incredibly surreal about watching videos from around Dec 2019 through Jan 2020 and hearing what they thought their 2020 was going to be like. It's almost unsettling.

I work from home. I've found having regular extracurricular activities at specified times really helps me force myself to stop at 5 PM if I have something coming up at say, 7. Otherwise, I've been known to stay up til 2 writing reports and regret my decisions the next day when my work isn't up to my usual standards.

I work from home, i calendar block specific duties and stick to it, also I have program goals and timelines that are a basic list of things to tackle for each program, events, those are my long term planning notes to myself. I also delay send myself emails as specific reminders. With the calendar block people can’t schedule me for other appointments. I plan conferences and run education programs, this has helped me to check in and remind myself to keep working on my plans and goals. I don’t think I’ll let go of my actual planner, but i do like the other portions of the journal...right now I have a thought journal, brain dump journal, i like the idea of combining and editing my thoughts to essential bullet points. Thanks for the video

I've been binge watching 2020 bujo setups, but this aesthetic is my favorite by far! As a design student, this makes my heart happy. Subbed!

[@CrazyAGCat]

Ohhh my gosh okay I don't normally directly use other people's designs and such in my own bujo (decorative stuff, not functional stuff -- the rolling weekly is absolutely what got me through my final projects this semester), but as I set up my stuff for 2020 I am absolutely stealing all this for my own. I just adore how everything looks here! And I also prefer the more minimalist design for at least the beginning of the year, to start it off all clean and slick. So excited to see the rest of your Plantmas videos!

[@amakerwitch]

I work from home (for a company, not self-employed) and I hesitate to say that it’s about discipline and boundaries. You say you want to wrap up by 7:30...make that 7:00 and allow an extra 30 minutes only when needed (you’re in a flow, etc.). Forgive yourself for pushing things to tomorrow. Have something to do when you’re done working, something that will take your mind off it. I journal, meditate and then read or play a video game for an hour after I’m done working and before dinner. I do not like to go directly from work to making dinner. Give yourself an hour between work and dinner if you can. I’ve also had a lot of success using the pomodoro method, which is worth researching for anyone who struggles with time management and self-boundaries. Most of this is mental and can be overcome. It was extremely difficult for me but now I know to shut it down at 5:30 (but I allow until 6 for special cases).

[@ukehimesama]

The round designs are actually considered apart of the ART NOUVEAU style, but no art style is completely deviod of the inspiration from previous and overlappimg styles

[@PlantBasedBride]

I was speaking of the more rounded Art Deco styles, not art nouveau. I realize that Art Deco and art nouveau are different styles ☺️

[@lisamdrake5696]

Ok, that gold pen is making me want to hop in my car right now to go buy it!! I think what makes it so striking is your Art Deco designs because they look like gold leaf. Such a gorgeous layout! Since I just caught the bullet journaling bug in August, I will be heading into 2020 using the same journal. ❤️😁

This design looks so elegant!!! And I love that your clip and scissors are also gold colour which make the whole video in one theme colour haha.

[@RoxxsSoxxs]

I struggle with the work/life balance, I find setting a schedule on excel can help and an alarm on the day when I’ve set my schedule so I know when to stop. It takes a tiny bit of work but there’s also the option of a stop watch with a set amount of work time so you stop and take breaks. I’ve been known to miss meals and sleep to keep working.... exhibit A it’s not 6am here and I started at 4pm.....

[@TheSherryFormula]

This year's GOLD theme is just LIT! Definitely one of the best 2020 setups I have seen so far. Thank you for this "shining" inspo💫 Just finished up a 2020 bujo setup vid on my channel as well after seeing your vid, very inspiring!

Her level of precision satisfies my OCD in ways I can't explain.. 😶

[@shawnahansen8597]

I've been working from home for 6 years and my favorite separation tips is that I work in my basement suite (the living room) which has French doors. I keep my work 100% in this room and do not work in any other space. This means when I go upstairs for lunch, it's as if I have left the office. For lunch I normally cook myself something rather than eat a sandwich at my desk and I watch some Netflix for my break. I also keep my art/craft space separate from my work area and it's set up in the "kitchen" of the suite. so my hobbies are separate from my work! I normally work from 7 to 6 which does impact health / mind so it's important to get outside during the day.

[@PlantBasedBride]

I wish I could have a separate work space! I like in a small city apartment so that’s not possible 😭

[@sbdragoo4463]

@@PlantBasedBride Having worked from home myself and had limited space available in a previous configuration... You don't need a separate room for your office. Just limit all "work" functions to a specific area that is off-limits once your "workday" ends. If the work area needs to be shared with other functions, do your best to clean up / put away work items when work ends so that you're not tempted to just 'do this one quick thing' (which always turns into many 'one quick things' and several hours). Even things as simple as picking up all pens and pencils and storing them in a drawer or box and closing notebooks can provide enough of a reminder that those are work items that you're opening up during the non-work time. Any reminder helps on this issue. My wife has a very small desk she uses that the front closes. This also helps keep the multi-use space looking neat when she isn't working.

[@ilariabonny824]

personally, i use the bullet journal/planner just to have fun decorating it and i never end up really using it for notes and appointments. that’s my way of relaxing after a long day at work. love this setup, love the decorations!

[@CamthalionSpirit]

Recently found your channel. Woooowwwww. Okay. Thank you for re-motivating me to fall in love with my bullet journal again. 2020 was just one of those years and well. The artful intention of it fell off. Even still in post apocalyptic 2021. Thank you so much. You’re a gem. Plus let’s mention the use of “y’all” which, as a southerner, I’m here for. Have I overlooked a video of how you letter your spreads? My handwriting is atrocious and I find it hard to free hand different fonts.

[@sbdragoo4463]

Have you ever used a "Rolling Ruler" when drawing parallel lines? Another technique is to get two small drafting triangles, set the long edge of one along the line you wish to draw parallel to, then place the second one firmly against one of the other edges (preferably at 90 degrees to the baseline), then slide the first triangle along the second to the position of the next parallel line to be drawn and draw the line. You can keep sliding the first triangle along the second one to draw several parallel lines before having to reposition the second triangle. There are also calligraphy rules that have lines along one edge that are intended to be parallel to that edge, but I've not seen reliable results from these.

[@HotCalicocoa]

I also work from home and it's a struggle to find balance I have yet to find something that works well for me. I'm doing a 1820s theme focusing on Percy Shelley's poems from that year and the language of flowers from the time period.

I admit I'm not a minimalist when it comes to planners(I use abt 6 lol) and I'm still new to BJing but your 2020 BJ is absolutely STUNNING!! I think I might have to give this type of planning another try P.S. Since you're a fan of FSF, ArtDeco and the "Roaring 20's", then you might agree wth me that while "The Great Gatsby" movie from the early 70's didn't get great reviews, it still was nice looking at Robert Redford for three dreamy hours lol.

[@lindsey7204]

Hi! I just started working from home for the past two months, and I definitely agree that it’s hard to stop. I’ll find myself doing something unproductive and immediately thinking that I could be doing x,y, and z. I find the best way for me to be on a normal schedule is to try and be in routine with my boyfriend, and usually we hang out around 6:30 pm until we go to sleep. A way that I mark this is by what time I want to have a drink, so I’ll stop and get a beer and then I won’t feel like doing any more work for the day, and by that point I’ve gotten all my necessary work done so I can stop! If you don’t drink, maybe use this time to start doing a fun activity because you’ll feel inclined to stop because you’d rather do this one activity that you do at 7:30. Let me know your thoughts!

[@PlantBasedBride]

I don’t really drink, but I may try a variation on this!

[@amberleitao4727]

You were taking about work/life separation, and that is a serious struggle for people that work from home, and I was one of them. I drove myself to an actual mental break down because I didn’t know how to “turn off“ my workday. Also I was working for an online company that wanted me to never put down my phone and always be in contact with my customers and I felt like that was a grave violation of my personal space. You have to tell yourself that it’s OK to stop. You don’t have to look at work emails past a certain time of the day. You don’t have to respond to people immediately even though this is the age of instant gratification. The stores in our town have a closing time as should you personally. My closing time is when my husband gets home from work and I start to cook dinner and we sit down as a family and eat. That’s it I’m done. I’m not worried about anything else other than spending time with him and relaxing and enjoying a couple of hours before I go to bed. It was hard at first to not jump when I heard a notification on the phone or to not feel guilty that Judy so-and-so had to wait until tomorrow for me to answer. It wasn’t until my husband finally said “who do these people think they are that it’s OK for them to demand a response at 8 PM Or 9 PM” and he was correct. If I had a problem with target and they close at 8 o’clock I can’t go down there at 9 o’clock and yell at somebody not that I would do that but you get what I mean. I promise you if you can look at your work life in this way it is going to save you so much mental stress! It’s not gonna be easy at first but I know you can do it! Best of luck ❤️

I've been waiting to watch this so I could really WATCH it, this is so inspiring--love the piece about the tribute to an era that has changed design!

[@theycallmemail]

My favorite book/s to read is the entire giver quartet (not just the first book). You can order a specific version where all of the books are in one spine or just get the individual books

[@PlantBasedBride]

Thank you for the recommendation!

[@moonchild6004]

Putting washi tape at the edges of important pages is such a good idea! How did I never think of that?! :D Also I love this simple but cute black&gold setup! Now I feel inspired for setting up my own new bujo :)

[@Bobbieness]

This is a belated comment but I have been watching bullet journal vids on/off for a year and you were the one who finally convinced me to start my own a month ago! I really loved your period tracker, wishlist/purchases tracker and your rolling weekly tasks and incorporated them all into my own. I still come back to get more inspo from you haha (I'm about to try out your 'ideal day' one and that's why I'm back and writing this comment). Thanks for making all these videos!

[@PlantBasedBride]

Aw I love that! Thank you so much for sharing this with me ❤️ I hope you love having a bullet journal ☺️

[@anndoll221]

I am not a bullet journal person, but I love how you incorporated art deco into the spreads.

[@PlantBasedBride]

Thank you ❤️

[@BATOOST]

This is the most inspiring 2020 setup, I've watched it like 3 times now! I'm definitely going to do try art deco inspired theme for my 2020 setup. Im so excited!!!

[@suzisaintjames]

I quit "working" when I stop to make dinner. If I have the evening to myself I "work" on fun stuff like sewing or other handwork. But remember, if your "work" is your fun stuff then there's no reason to stop... Just be sure to schedule time for your significant others. Check out Travis Robertson's video on "9 life areas for goal setting". If you are including these in your plans, only you can say what's fun and what's work. Sending lots of love ❤ from sunny 🌅 Arizona 🌵

[@elao5810]

❤️ the Art Deco pages and how bright your golds come out. Got too excited for my January spread so didn't leave room in the beginning of the book for anything else. Will probably add it to the back of the book. 😅 First time using an A5 notebook so I have room in this 2nd ever BuJo of mine. Looking forward to tomorrow's video! Thank you.

[@Chloeen]

for books, I am really enjoying things they carried rn, as well as pride and prejudice. If you haven't read them they are fantastic

[@danthechick-can6336]

This is totally random, but I don't hear the word y'all a lot where I am from (upstate NY) and I love that word. Half of my family is from Louisiana and I am pretty close with one of my cousins (but not the other ones sadly) do that side. She is one of my favorite people ever, but I very rarely get to see her and the way you say y'all reminds me of her and I absolutely LOVE it. Sorry for this way to long and random comment.

[@PlantBasedBride]

Aw haha thank you for sharing that! You don’t hear it a lot in Canada, either, but I wanted to replace my habit of saying “you guys” all the time and decided y’all was a good option! Now it’s just a habit and I like it ☺️

[@byron9727]

I’ve only just discovered your channel as I’m plotting out my 2021 journal. Just wanted to comment on what a fabulously inclusive way you said ‘if you are a human who has a period’ it just warmed my heart! I hope your goals were met over the year, I look forward to dipping in and out and seeing for myself 🙌🏻

[@byron9727]

@S Fong not quite, but yes on the whole it is mainly people who identify as women who have periods. If you want to learn more and appear more informed online, please do check out any of the tens of thousands of KZbin videos that explain gender identity in more detail. I will happily signpost you to some if you comment on this. Gender identity can be an overwhelming subject for people who conform to the sex they were assigned at birth, but if you are interested in learning more about those who don’t please let me know and I will post some links.

[@byron9727]

And as a quick addendum, the way it was described doesn’t exclude those assigned female at birth who don’t have periods for any reason.

[@christopherwarwick5956]

I’m also a big fan of shiny stuff. This is encouraging for the excellent spare use of gold. Thanks.

[@isobelheath2559]

Awkward moment when 2020 was more like the 1920’s than we really wanted... 😅😂 these spreads are beautiful though, love that the gold and black pen theme goes with the cover of the note book too

[@DoodleDragonU]

I enjoyed watching you create this theme. The gold really makes it shine!!

[@margarethaines9310]

Love the Deco '20s art direction. Likely, F. Scott Fitzgerald would say something like, "Can't repeat the past? . . . Why of course you can!"

[@PlantBasedBride]

Hehe that was my other quote option! ❤️

[@april2216]

So much inspiration for my 2020 set up! I really want to use your Kanban spread for school projects, and edit your period tracker to use as more of an anxiety/stress spread! Thanks for the amazing inspo and pleasing my eyes! :)

[@kayceebauer3875]

"The year 2020 will be nothing like the 1920's" Understatement of the year

[@Shirviu]

take a drink every time she says instagram :P

[@vampyremisa]

mine is a lot more basic because I use it for academics only and meetings and projects but it is nice to see what others do with theirs.

[@desireeambermoore621]

Dont mind me just finding you and bingeing everything. This one is so beautiful! I love Art Deco. I'm an artist but am somehow feeling uncreative in my BuJo... these videos are inspiring me.

[@michellehoang576]

I love the gold accents and gold tools. This set up is really inspired by the 1920's where the era of modern art, music, fashion, writing, lifestyle and etc had began. Love the Gatsby theme.

[@PlantBasedBride]

Thank so you so much! 🥰

[@cme_epicness]

I NEED THOSE CALENDAR STICKERS!!! PLEASE TELL US WHEN AND WHERE WE CAN GET THEM!!! 😊👍🏻

[@PlantBasedBride]

Hehe I will on Monday! 😉❤️

[@cme_epicness]

Yay! I’m so excited!

[@ravenousred1615]

Walmart has stick on mini washi calendars... (:

[@cme_epicness]

Maria Mercer although I can’t because I live in the uk.

[@otjh6845]

and i can’t cuz i’m in australia

[@jonnastrandberg2625]

i’ve been planning to do a 1920’s/art deco vibe for my 2020 set up as well so thank you for giving me even more inspiration! 🥰

[@insiya7810]

it's so prettyyyy! the patience you must have to use the stencil and ruler for all those letters! mad respect

[@sign543]

This is fascinating to watch, but I’ll never understand how anyone has the patience to do something like this.

[@PlantBasedBride]

I find it so relaxing ❤️

[@FelineFurKin]

This is the most gorgeous journal I’ve ever seen. I started one in 2017 and didn’t use it all year in the end, I’m thinking I’ll try again. The stamp set is adorable and less than £15 in the UK, quite a find. I love Art Deco too, such patience to do all the lines and curves.

[@PlantBasedBride]

Thank you so much!

[@meghall337]

This is gorgeous! I really love that you were concise in the materials you used. I watched another KZbinr do their spread and it was gorgeous, but she pulled out like 5 new products per page and it was quite excessive. This gives a much more accessible impression of bullet journaling, like you can make it look nice and polished without spending tons and tons of money on supplies. Definitely subscribing, can't wait to watch more of your videos!

[@PlantBasedBride]

Aw thank you! I do try to use what I have whenever possible, and not to bring too many new things into my life. ❤️

[@alli5472]

5 feet apart is an amazing book (if you haven't seen the movie) I really recommend it!

[@meghanndaley]

2 years late to the party, but this is absolutely beautiful! I am not crafty enough to put that together but I would buy a pre made one in a minute

[@suestoons]

Reading Recommendation: Jean M. Auel Earth's Children Series. There are 6 books in total. The first two were published in 1980 & 1981. I've read the series annually over the Christmas Break since 1981. It was a bleak 12 years between books 4 & 5 let me tell ya! I'm excited that re-read #38 is quickly approaching :) Wow, I didn't realize it had been that long since I started this series! A second series that is out of my normal genre is the After Cilmeri Series by Sarah Woodbury. These were initially self-published e-books that can now be purchased on Kobo. There are 14 or 15 titles.

[@PlantBasedBride]

Hehe chewy wanted to help 😂

[@intofolklore13]

This is honestly one of the most beautiful setups I've ever seen on KZbin. I LOVE the midori brass ruler, it's on my wishlist for ages but seeing it on video makes me want it even more! I love all your spreads and how you layout them in a different way. I'm stealing a few ideas for my own bullet journal :) Happy Holidays!

[@PlantBasedBride]

Aw thank you so much! 🥰

[@camo770]

By the more rounded art deco style, did you mean art nouveau? Because I think that was around about the same time right?

[@arizaysabelle2301]

Her: Decorating her Journal Calmly and her mind is working Calmly... Me: Over Thinking of my Design. Buying things she had and Don't even use it.😂😂 Btw your so Talented!❤
