hey friends elizabeth here from plant based bride, back again with another video and today i'm doing
a flip through of my last bullet journal that i used through the second half of 2021 i used my
archer and olive collab notebook that i designed this is the cloth sunrise notebook and as you
can see it is pretty chunky there is a lot in here can't quite close the same way it used to
but i'm very excited to show you what's inside and chewie is too buddy
so let's open this up and i'll show you all of my spreads so here is the inner cover yet again
and i still love this theme i love this color scheme and the wiggly lines and the circles i mean
as you'll know if you saw my new bullet journal set up i was inspired
by this theme to do something kind of semi-similar in my new bullet journal
i'm still such a big fan of this and of course i still love this inner cover that flips open
to show the grid spacing spread so useful when i'm setting up new spreads
and i love being able to use this inner cover for something really practical
chewie you're kind of putting a shadow on my book do you want to lie down
yeah good boy all right so flipping through the rest of my pages we of course have the
cover page and my quote for the second half of the year stay patient and trust your journey
then we have my future log which i didn't use a huge amount
this year not a lot going on but hopefully 20 22 will be better we've got my kanban board
which i've talked about a lot recently and as you can see plantmas is still in full swing
currently filming this video i have a couple more videos to film a couple more that i'm in the midst
of editing and then plantmas will be over and there won't be any more content until the new year
my waiting on and want need gifted spread were pretty heavily used in the last six months i
would say tracking items that i ordered online and when they're expected to be delivered and
when they were actually delivered and then of course things that i want things that i need and
things that were gifted to me here then we have my work to do list and my personal to-do list here
lots of things on here i got a lot done actually a lot more on my personal to-do list
this time around than my work to-do list but still a lot left to do so if i don't complete
all of these by the end of the year i'll do a little review to see if they still need
to get done and if so i'll move them on to the corresponding spreads in my new bullet journal
then we have my period tracker and my date night spread here i always love to see a filled out bye
chewie i always love to see a filled out period tracker there's something so satisfying about it
the days that i'm on my period are shiny and gold and i also have some symptoms
tracked and ovulation days there it's really cool to see the patterns that way and then
of course my date night spread tracking all the date nights that i go on with my husband
i have a blank spread here i left a couple pages just in case i had another spread that i really
wanted but i didn't end up coming up with anything so that just stayed blank then we move into july
i really loved this theme super minimalist love this color scheme again my calendar and
this is i believe the first time i ever did these circle habit trackers which
i've really enjoyed and i've kept using them since then on and off then into my weeklies
of course these are pretty simple as always just organizing my day-to-day life my work life
with my little faux dutch door folding
center page so i can always see my task list no matter what day of the week i'm on
and my final spread for july here and moving in to august with my olive theme i love this theme
i love the combination of the gold outlines and the more realistic watercolor olives
this was a really fun theme to do and i was really happy with how it turned out tried
a little bit of a different habit tracker here this time and of course my rolling weeklies again
pretty boring and straightforward you can see some days i have a lot of stuff to write i have
timelines and then some days i don't have a lot going on or
i have so much going on that i don't even have a chance to write it in my bullet journal
there's a lot of variation and that's why i like this setup because i have the space if i need it
like on a day like this and if i don't need it it's not too big of a deal
and the final spread for august i still love how this turned out this pattern page at the
end and this quote here i might have to revisit a theme like this in the future because i just
loved creating this one and using it moving in to september with my celestial
moth theme this one was another fun one to do i really enjoyed painting the moths of course
that watercolor the shininess always a big fan another different kind of habit tracker here
it's funny i'd given up on habit trackers for a couple years i feel like and then this year
all of a sudden i started getting back into them again i guess with everything we've gone
through in the last couple years i've needed extra motivation to keep up with my habits
moving through my weeklies
still have some pencil marks on the spread that i never erased
and i dropped some water on this tab you can see that water spot
and our final spread for september
moving into october with my graphic snake theme this one was another fun one sort of outside my
comfort zone a bit of a challenge figuring out how to spell october with a snake's body took me
way too long i'm embarrassed to admit how long it took me to figure that out back to the
circle trackers here and i love how this spread turned out the little baby snake is my favorite
getting into my weeklies again looks like this week was a little slower until the
last day or i just didn't write very much in my bullet journal actually i'm pretty sure
this was the week i was filming my november plan with me and that took me several days
of filming and i didn't do anything except paint all day long so that's probably why
getting to the last week of october here lots of tasks going on and my
final spread there into november this was such a fun theme to do even though it took me ages
i just love this window so that we can either be inside with our foxes or outside looking in
and this was the first time that i tried doing this cutaway so that i could create
art that i could enjoy all month long no matter which weekly i was on
and i found i still had more than enough space in my weeklies even cutting a chunk off the
bottom i guess that's the benefit of being in a b5 size i have a little bit more leeway
for the design of my spreads because i have a bit more space to breathe
and i just loved being able to see my artwork all month long
and the final week of november and that final spread there moving into december the final theme
in this bullet journal the aurora borealis this one was so much fun trying a new medium painting
with acrylic for the first time i was surprised by how easy this technique was and how nice
it turned out and of course i tried something really different with my weeklies for december
i did this really small monthly and had my art on the side and put full weeklies on a half page
with a task list for the entire month as you can see things are very messy
plantmas is chaos so i do my best but things become a bit of a mess
and then we have swatches i did when my collaboration launched to show the
exclusive acrylographs in my collection the gold that is permanent and then my four exclusive
colors rust fern evergreen and picheline and then i have a couple blank pages which i saved
not knowing if i would need them for anything and of course wouldn't be my journal without a
little bit of a washi or post-it graveyard at the back some of my old video card washi pieces there
and a piece of paper with some notes on it in the pocket and that is it that's my whole journal
i can't believe we're already going into the new year it feels like i just started this bullet
journal like a month ago not six months ago it's really cool to see how thick my journal has gotten
with extra pages that i've glued in and just painting on pages
and all the areas that are indented from my tabs from the top you can even see where i folded
all my weeklies in there if i'm not holding it it barely stays closed but i think that's so cool
i would love to know in the comments down below which of these themes was your favorite and
thank you for hanging out with me for this video thank you so much to my patrons for your support
y'all are the absolute best and i will see all of you very soon tomorrow for plantmas day eight
bye friends
you
