A Bullet Journal Calendar Cover page creation in my Blue Sky Papers leather Sketchbook to finish this year strong. Plan with me this November in this new video.

Hello November,

I cannot believe it is already the second to last month in 2017! November is one of my favorite months, as this is when the leaves start to change, and it feels like ‘the calm before the storm’….the storm being all the craziness that the holidays and end of the year bring. With only 61 days left in this year, it is time to sit down and reevaluate your life….hehe okay, not really. But it is a good time to review those goals you set for yourself at the beginning of the year and check in where you’re at with them.

You may have met some of those goals, or maybe you let them fall to the side a long time ago. That’s okay. The year isn’t over yet, and you can still set good intentions to finish your year out strong. You may not have time to train and run that marathon, but you can still finish a book or two, and sign up for that yoga class you were going to back in January but never did. (Just do it!)

Use your sketchbook as a place to journal, reflect and plan. With the blank pages there is plenty of room for you to draw, write and paste in little bits of inspiration that will keep you motivated through out the month. Make a Bullet Journal Calendar cover page each month, to set your intentions and to help keep you motivated all month long.

Don’t overwhelm yourself with too many goals. Keep it simple and pick a few small ones that you can accomplish this month. Don’t be intimidated by the ‘blank canvas’ and the pressure to make your page pretty either. JUST HAVE FUN WITH IT. Let yourself be inspired. If you are having trouble getting started, just print out a calendar; paste it in and then college in other things that interest you to create an inspiration Bullet Journal Calendar cover page.

I taped in Polaroid pictures I took, little flowers and a page from a poetry book that I like. I included some watercolor and doodling in mine, and tried to keep with the theme of ‘fall’. I had a lot of fun (and it was very relaxing) making these pages, and filmed a little video to show you my process.

Below I am including a list of the products I use in this video, incase you’re interested.
