room to journal...
Right, here we go... the beginnings of my bullet-cum-art journal I mentioned last week...
As I understand it, the purpose of a bullet journal is to keep all the elements of your life in one place: appointments, to-do lists, meal planners, finances, etc. But I already do most of that in my trusty Filofax, and I have separate prayer and gratitude journals which I began last year. And I'm using this planner already to plan and track my weekly/monthly writing...
So... I've decided to keep this journal for arty-type things, such as paint and pen test pages, journal prompts, book/film/TV reviews, and of course, the odd Moonboard (as pictured here, from yesterday afternoon, the day of the Full Moon, which just so happened to be a BLUE MOON, the second full moon of a calendar month - so actually, they're not THAT rare, despite the saying! But what is rare, this Full Blue Moon happened to be a Super Moon [appears 10-15% larger as it's closer to Earth in its orbit] AND there is a lunar eclipse - the last time all that happened at once was 1866, apparently!)
Anyway...
In true bullet journal style, I've added tabs - Quotes, Blog Ideas, Reviews, Pen and Paint Tests, with space to add more. As I'm using an A4 Moleskine sketchbook, there's plenty of pages to fill AND a trusty pocket at the back to store random bits of paper/pictures until I find a place for them.
I haven't got much done in it yet, as it's been a busy week, but I've made a start, and that's the main thing. Sharing my desk over here at Julia's Stamping Ground.

I’m toying with the idea of making a personalised journal/binder myself as I use different note books for different things .
I may need to do a mock up one first to see if I can make it work

Tried to waken for the Moon but guess we fell asleep and will just have to watch it on tv this morning - I stayed awake late and guess that was a mistake.
Enjoy your bulleting!

ps Michaels went off but now has got some really cool stuff in - I always like the home decor but cannot bring things back - too large and too costly to ship!
Have a great week.
