New Year. Same Journals.
Hello Hive,
Anyone who frequents the crafty corners of the internet will have noticed a trend: everyone is getting new journals and planners to celebrate our entrance into 2026. And, I totally get it. There is a special boost of energy to starting anew with the new year. And, somehow, a brand new journal symbolizes a fresh start. I am not opposed to buying new things, but, why should I abandon my old notebooks when I have a couple of perfectly good ones with plenty of pages left to fill?
Today I want to de-influence my fellow crafters. We don't need to buy anything new, at least not until the pages of the last journal are filled up. To illustrate my point I made a short video clip showing off my current art journals:
We may be a few weeks into a new year but, I am still working on projects from last year. So, why should those projects be separated into a different book?
Happy Crafting Everyone!!
