Скачать или смотреть Not a Good Start to the Year | Bullet Journal With Me | Simply Gilded | February 2025 | AD

Today we are setting up for Cycle 2 (February) in my beautiful lavender paged journal from Archer & Olive. There is something about the coloured paper that makes the whole process feel so much more creative, which is exactly what I need right now.

To be completely honest, January was a bit of a struggle—the planner slump was real, and I’ve been feeling quite disconnected from my usual routines. In this video, I’m walking you through how I’m using this setup to pull myself out of that funk. This cycle is also a huge transition for me as I’m heading back to work from maternity leave, so my spreads are heavily focused on being functional, goal-oriented, and supportive of this new "working mum" chapter.

What I’m using for this setup:
Journal: Archer & Olive Lavender Paged Journal.
Simply Gilded: Washi tape and PET tape.
Journalsay: Roll of grid paper tape.
Misc: Washi tape from an unknown shop.

In this video, I discuss:
🌈 My honest reflections on my January planner slump and why I'm not beating myself up about it.
🌈 How I’m adjusting my layouts to manage the return to work after maternity leave.
🌈 Using my journal to track and actually achieve my goals for Cycle 2.
🌈 How the lavender pages influence my colour palettes and designs.

If you’re also heading back to work or feeling a bit stuck in your planning journey, I hope this setup gives you some inspiration to keep going.

For full transparency: I receive free stickers, and get a discount at Plannerface, in return for showing her stickers – however, she was one of my favourite shops before I started to PR for her, and it does mean I have a coupon code for you [TILLY] 😊
