Hello everyone!
Welcome back to Lavendaire.
I am so excited to finally announce that we have launched
our new Pastel Notebooks by Lavendaire.
You can check them out on the shop at shop.lavendaire.com.
The link is right there down below.
I am so excited guys, because I have been working on
these notebooks since the beginning of the year.
I first thought of the idea –
I really wanted cute pastel, aesthetic notebooks to journal with
because you guys know that I love journaling.
Journaling is a huge part of Lavendaire, my personal growth journey,
so I wanted to create some really cute Lavendaire notebooks for journaling.
By the way, if you haven't heard yet:
We've been doing a journaling series on IGTV
on the @shoplavendaire Instagram.
So go over there because we've been sharing a lot of journaling prompts
and there's also a running giveaway for these new Pastel Notebooks.
So if you want a chance to win a set of these new Pastel Notebooks,
you can head over to Instagram to participate.
All right, so about the Pastel Notebooks.
These are soft cover notebooks that are available
in four pastel colors and three paper types:
lined, dotted, and blank.
If you've been following my Instagram,
you guys have been a part of this design phase.
I let you guys help me choose the colors.
We took a poll on paper types and a lot of you suggested I add dotted paper,
so I added dotted paper just for you.
On each notebook is a different minimal icon
and each icon has its own meaning.
When I was thinking about the four different icons,
I knew I wanted the Sun and the Moon
because I wanted one to represent morning pages, one to be evening pages.
And then we also have a Lotus, which is inspired by the tattoo that I have.
And then there's a Leaf because I love plants and growth.
My idea was each notebook and its icon would inspire
and guide your journaling or doodling or creative session.
So if you were to look at each icon in depth,
you can look at the Sun as representing happiness, confidence, joy, positivity.
And you could use that notebook for gratitude journaling, counting your wins,
counting your joy, celebrating your successes, and of course, morning pages.
The Moon to me represents emotions, feelings, and thoughts.
So you could use that notebook for mood journaling,
journaling in the evenings, self-reflection,
releasing fears and negativity, healing and forgiveness.
The Leaf icon symbolizes growth, vitality, and health.
And so you can use that notebook to journal about your personal growth,
life lessons you've learned, goal setting, or even a food diary or fitness journal.
And lastly, the Lotus represents spirituality, creativity, and beauty.
So you could use that notebook to journal about spirituality, your self care habits,
collect wisdom and inspiration, or just to express your creativity.
And I also want to shout out the person who designed these super cute icons.
Her name is Cloris, and she's actually a Lavi Love.
I met her at the Lavendaire launch event last year,
and after I met her, I followed her Instagram.
And then I found out that her illustrations and doodles are super cute.
So a few months later I reached out
about working together on these Lavendaire notebooks.
So it's really cool to be able to work with a Lavi Love
and to be able to collaborate with you guys
as much as possible throughout this whole process,
because I'm making these products for you
and I want as much of your input as possible.
I really used Instagram polls a lot throughout this process
and it was fun to get ideas from you guys through social media.
As you can see, these Pastel Notebooks are multipurpose.
It really is just a tool for your creativity.
I personally like to use them for journaling,
but if you are an artist and you like to illustrate or doodle,
if you'd like to bullet journal, you have the option of
doing whatever you want with these pages.
This is a resource and tool for you
and it goes back to that underlying mission statement
I have for everything that I put out with Lavendaire,
is to empower you to be an artist of life,
to create your life in any way that you want.
And with these new Pastel Notebooks, you are the artist.
You can create whatever you want in these pages.
Use these pages to help you plan out your dream life.
Use it to understand yourself, get to know yourself better.
Heal from anything you need to heal from, from the past.
Use it for gratitude, appreciation, use it for anything you want.
There are so many possibilities.
This is your physical space for self-discovery, creativity, and freedom, so have a ball!
I also want to mention how important sustainability is to me
as I'm designing these products for Lavendaire.
So with the Pastel Notebooks and all the Lavendaire products,
we use recycled FSC-certified paper.
All the items are made of recycled material and they're fully recyclable.
So you can see that these Pastel Notebooks are coming in this cardboard sleeve
and then they're mailed out in cardboard boxes,
and that is new because we used to mail out our workbooks in these bubble mailers.
And then this year we just ordered cardboard mailers.
We're going cardboard everything, paper everything.
Just doing the best we can to make sure everything is biodegradable and eco-conscious.
So if you're curious to know more details and specs on these notebooks,
you can check out the product page.
I'll link it right here so you can see
and let me know in the comments which one you think you're going to get.
Which one is your favorite color or icon?
Or are you going to get the whole set?
Let me know!
I'm so excited to hear your feedback.
And also let me know what you plan on using these notebooks for,
because the possibilities really are endless
and I really hope you enjoy them.
Sending you so much love and I will see you guys in the next one.
Bye!
