Starting a new journal || Midori MD Notebook Review & Swatching

After a long time of looking at this notebook with a skeptical eye, I finally got one just to see what all the hype is about…and (spoiler?) I love it. I had LOT of fun making this video and I’m glad to be making them again. Be sure to stretch and unclench your jaw~☆ Thanks for watching. See you soon!

I like how Midori notebook allows you to be creative not only the pages, but you can decorate the book cover too!

[@cyborgmemoirs]

I freaking loved the closeup writing sequence!!!

[@halogenesis]

Thank you!!! ~☆

[@thieleaf_the_shelf_dragon]

i know its been a while but i'll let you know this paper *really* lets you press down with the tombows to make some pretty colour variation ^^ also i *love* the idea of using a journal for OCs, somehow ive not really thought to do that before :o

[@halogenesis]

Yes!! (I know it’s been a while for me too) After I made this video, I did more experimentation and found that the tomboys got subtle gradient effects when I pressed. I was extremely pleased~☆

[@jastenecollects]

Your hand writing is very good

[@halogenesis]

Thank you so much!

[@mugshotparis]

so cute!!

[@halogenesis]

Aw! Thank you~☆!

[@aniekeee]

The grid looks quite unique!

[@halogenesis]

It’s reminiscent of Genkou Youshi!

[@sitasuksanan8914]

You’re lefty and you have the good hand writing 😍

[@partialartsblackbelt8384]

What are you using for your ephemera holder book we saw sneak in?

[@halogenesis]

Haha! Sharp eye! It’s a King Jim sticker file folder in sheet style.

As a lefty, I wish I wrote as beautifully as you! I just purchased the Midori Md . Are there any other notebooks that you would recommend for lefty’s? Also pens?

[@halogenesis]

So sorry for the late reply. I don’t really avoid any paper or notebooks just because I’m a lefty. I learned how to write with my hand slightly suspended above the page so I don’t smudge. Don’t let leftiness stop you from trying out amazing paper! (But also onion skin is pretty stinking cool and lefty friendly) I’d also suggest Sakura micron pens because they’re archival and dry relatively quickly. Also acroball makes a good fast-drying formula too.

What was the glue stick and tape? They seemed perfect for journaling

[@halogenesis]

The glue stick is Gloo by Kokuyo in the medium size, and the Tape is a Tombow Mono adhesive tape roller.

Whats the song starts around 4:00, it doesnt fit any of the credits thanks

[@halogenesis]

Sorry, it’s Crossing Borders by Mindserver Unlimited! I’ll add it to the credits.

[@Gay_shawarma_wrap]
