The Whimsy Bookworm: A Book Blog from India

  July looking fine and largely floral and happy in my planner.  Decorated the first three weeks worth of pages in my planner and gratitude journal. It makes life easier as the month goes along and life gets busy. 

 Hello Loves ❤ I have already decorated my pages for the coming week and I love how it's turned out.  I randomly picked a red theme and ran with it. For once I've mostly used stickers from my Ink Bucket sticker book.  Here's a look at the weekly spread.  All red and lovely ❤🌹❤

 Hello Loves!  For today's SS post, I just want to round up some recent favourites.  Pages from my Journal.  My February Reading Journal pages, that I got around to doing only this week, but I do love how they've turned out.  And... Some new new colours I treated myself to and a spot of colouring in my tiny colouring book.  All good things.  🎀🎀🎀🎀🎀 Washi Tape to decorate my journal pages.  Reading Journal for February.  I went all out and love how it looks.  Pages in my tiny colouring book.  These colours are from a brand called About Space and I bought it from Amazon.  It has 60 colours and they are super pigmented. There is a lot of bleed through, so you have to be a little mindful of the kind of paper you are using them on.  The colour selection is very nice.  A page in progress. 

Journaling~ I am loving journaling. I hope I can consistently keep at it throughout the year.  Started a new book. I am a little bit in and am looking forward to jumping into this book and reading these short stories.  A page from my book journal.  My bookmark of the moment.   Stationery Stash. 

 Hello Loves!  A Stationery Sunday for you today.  These are just some things and bits- Stationery and Planner and Journal related that I've been loving lately.  So in no particular order... 1. Typewriter TN from The Black Canvas: I've been low-key lusting after this Dori for ages now and last month I finally gave in and got it. I normally seem to prefer an A6 sized dori, it's just a size that works for me but...this beauty deserved a bigger canvas (hehe see what I did there!). So I got the full sized aka the traditional sized TN and she's gorgeous.  I plan on using her next year...for something.  A writer's journal..maybe. God knows I need to start writing again. 2022 was been a dismal year writing wise. And maybe having a gorgeous notebook specifically for writing and ideas might be a good thing be.  I will set her up in the New Year and show how it looks. As always everything from Black Canvas is so well-made and lovely.  I am excited.  ...

 Hello Loves! It's been forever and a day since I did a Stationery Sunday post.  I've missed it.  Truth be told since my wrist got all messed up thanks to De Quervain's Syndrome my planning and journaling has been quite minimal, because it hurts something special to write. This is my version of hell you guys. I can't wait for my damn wrist to get better and get back to regular programming.  Today I want to share pages from my planner in the last few weeks. A rain themed spread for this very rainy week.  I love these abstract washi tapes from Classiky.  A food and cooking theme spread.  Rains and cleaning.  This was the week I came back home and it was daysss of cleaning and dusting and fretting.  This spread was all about summer and summer colours and well..some sweeties.  I used to Pet Stickers and some Washi Tapes layered.  Some pages from May.  I like picking a colour scheme of sorts and then go on and stick to it and find e...

  Hello Loves!  I have been writing morning pages (pretty much regularly) since July now. It feels so good to have a place to jot down some musings and thoughts and just vent if I need to. I used the same journal for July and August and used up all the pages come September.  So new month, new journal.  I picked this floral beauty for my Journal in September.  And did a little decor to get it started.  How beautiful is this journal?  This style of florals is my favourite.  I got this journal and another pink one, free with my planner this year. From The Inkbucket. So I figured I might as well put it to good use.  :)  This journal already comes with a front page and I decorated it using some simple supplies.  A whole bunch of stickers, some Washi Tape, a vellum paper and a scrap of brown paper.  I like how it's turned out.  A closer look.  Supplies from:  VnV Shop. Kimey's Corner  Ali Express.  &...

 Hello Loves!  A quick haul of some stationery bits.  Since our stay here keeps getting extended, we've been buying some stationery supplies to aid in our journaling and planning. So we've been buying a couple things from some wonderful Indian stationery shops.  This was our second or maybe even third time buying from BRWN  and we go a few Washi Tapes and a set of some gorgeous Vellum Papers.  I honestly cannot wait to use them in my planner and journals.  We've already used the Washi Tape and are very happy with the quality.  Here's the loot:  Look how gorgeously everything came packaged!  Minimal but stunning.  Here's the Washi Tape.  We got three sets of five tapes each.  I love the colours and prints.  I think the bundle in the middle might be my favourite.  But love all the others too.  I feel so stupid for not bring along even a single roll of washi tape with us.  We have so much!  I am deter...
