Travelling a lot with my husband, I picked up the crazy habit of buying notebooks from every airport where we have a stopover. The only things I am looking for, when choosing these notebooks, are for them to be beautiful and girly and for the pages to open nicely, to be easy to draw tables… Continue reading

Pocket bookmark – why and how
I am a passionate reader, passionate crafter and passionate journaler. Most of my ideas for a better life, for home changes or even for studying new things come while I am reading books or magazines. No matter what I’m reading – a crime novel, love story, nonfiction or a cook book. Always an idea, usually… Continue reading
September Journal title page
Like many of you I am obsessed with bullet journaling. Now, when I’m a bit older, they remind me of my teenagers years, when I was equally obsessed with writing my diaries. I find myself entering the same “promises”, tasks, decorations, but also with a lot of emotional sharing. Black and white Of course, the… Continue reading
Retro tickets – it’s easy to make them
You know that I am very much about minimizing materials in the craft space, especially in the paper crafter’s craft space. Less materials equals less mess and more creativity. And also – less money spent. It is not necessary to buy something, if you can make it yourself, is it? I really enjoy making my… Continue reading
Happy little cactus garden
Have you ever heard the saying that, “We are all nothing, but pretty and unique cactus plants”? The first time I heard this – in my teenage years – I was shocked and disagreed.

Fly-time colouring – overcoming my fear
If you are reading my blog, you already know about my fear of flying. And you know my husband and I have to fly a lot. Oh, really a lot! But the fear of flying is only one side of the coin. The second side is my handmade business, which I am running even while… Continue reading
New Year Resolution calendar and message
It is still January and the theme of New Year’s Resolutions is still very important. I am always writing my Resolutions, but in the last few years have very often failed to fulfil my promises. As I realised, one of the reasons for this is so simple, almost stupid. I don’t have a simple, always… Continue reading
My 2019 journal attachments
The early morning of the first day of January is my favourite moment of the whole year. Something new was just born, the new page of my life has just opened. The streets are empty, all the people are sleeping after their big parties last night. And the Universe is listening only to my voice…. Continue reading
Habit trackers for kids? Why not indeed!
Habit trackers – this wonderful thing, born from Brian Tracy’s “Eat the frog” book – are so popular at this time. People have made huge money just by reselling the idea to others. And I will tell you my secret – organizing my habit tracker and bullet journal is my way to meditate. No yoga,… Continue reading
How Morning Pages became Evening pages
First, I found mention of Morning Pages in a book, “Letters from Paris”. The author, Janice MacLeod, is a young woman stuck in the middle of “living her life’s dream”. She is unhappy, full of feelings that time is flying and her life is not going well. And then she found Julia Cameron’s book, “The… Continue reading
