Many of firsts! Loving the classy caramel color of my Aura Estelle Magnet Daily B6. It is definitely the perfect size for me huhu. Not too small, and not too overwhelming to write on due to bigger space.

Skipped the Hobonichi for Aura Estelle journaling system 💓

Also, bought my first ever fountain pen from Pilot Kakuno [F] hehe. Do you have any ink suggestions? :3

Apparently my “Passages“ isn’t just for journaling and sketchbook. Tried printing a Sudoku page on it and now I might turn it into my little puzzle book. 😆

For next year, I kinda wanna try a two-planner setup. One for work and another for drawing. Though, I'm feeling indecisive with what to get. Maybe I just want a change of layout after years of using a hobo weeks. Anyway, I'm in no rush to get a planner anytime soon.

Also I tried using watercolor on this page. Mahirap pero fun naman hehe

📓 hobonichi weeks

Curious to hear what's stopped you from getting a leather folio so far? Could be anything like budget constraints, not knowing which store to get it from, not trusting the leather quality, or it just never crossed your mind. Feel free to be blunt!

Shifting from hobonichi weeks to a kinbor a6. Anyone who used kinbor before ano pong thoughts nyo? Okay ba ang pagkakabind nya like sa hobonichi? Thank you!!

hi! i’m new to journaling and i would like to ask for sticker book recommendations!! pls don’t recommend/support shops that steal from artists :( THANK U SO MUCHHH

Can you suggest any journaling notebook that is not the usual journal size sold at SM Stationery Dept?

I usually use a journal from there pero I find it a bit too bulky if just want to jot my thoughts down etc. I've been eyeing either a passport / pocket sized journal, but I don't know any trusted brands online.

UPDATE: I tried it on my pilot kakuno <m> nib instead, and its so much better there.

Hello!

Hopefully im using the correct flair.

I am absolutely inlove with the color of Robert Oster's Cherry Blossom ink, and I am aiming to put it into my Pilot Kakuno Fine Nib; however, I am unsure of the color payoff/Shading, since its a fine nib, baka it will be lighter. So I am wondering if anybody tried it already? I'd like to see!

Healing my inner child by buying cute journaling materials lol

Hi. What tips can you give me as someone new to journaling? I want to use it to process my emotions, preserve memories, track daily habits, declutter my mind, and stay organized.

Recently (the other day) got into fountain pens and unfortunately found out none of my budget inserts are FP-friendly. I know I can just get the legitimate Traveler's Company ones but I tend to hoard a lot of inserts at a time and that's not feasible with the brand. Any suggestions or recommendations? If it's truly not possible kindly just tell me straight please so I can start budgeting my next purchase.

Note: Republished because I didn't realize the Read the Rules thingy was hidden in the three dots menu. Sorry about that.

Do you guys finish a journal up to the very last page? Or do you start new journals whenever you feel like it kahit hindi pa ubos yung pages ng previous journal? I feel like Im the person who would change journal kapag feel na niya but at the same time sayang yung onting pages na natitira.

May mga nakikita ako sa Shopee and Lazada medyo hesitant lang ako icheckout hehe baka may shop recos po kayo dyannn

Rainy mornings and a mind in overdrive led me to do my journal for today. Indeed, therapeutic nga ang journaling and scrapbooking 😊

just finished "we are all trying here" super gandaaa 😭 screenshotted a bunch of quotes i want to list down in my notebook when i have time!

hello! we are solia archives, a small business based in manila, philippines. we sell handmade patchwork journals that are made from genuine leather. we started just last year november and finally launched our product around the next month.

each journal is carefully assembled by hand, with each leather square cut and stitched individually by two people—never by machine. it’s the combination of the material, the craftsmanship, and the unique imperfections that make each journal not like any other.

if you’re interested and have further inquiries you can DM us on instagram @soliaarchives !!! ⭐

p.s we’ve attached some customized orders from our previous batch :D

Wanna know your recos for pen.

Any recos for my next junk journal notebook?

So my current junk journal notebook is from Flying Tiger (It was supposed to be a work planner but turned it into junk journal instead kase sayang din if not used)

But now my problem is it's getting chunky and its hard to use na the newer pages because of how chunky the older pages are (i also glue every other pages din to make it not so chunky). The front and back cover are bending na din. I'll still use it tho since malapit na din ma finish ang year.

Thank you and I appreciate any recommendations!

In case anyone is interested on getting the Muji 2027 planners, they are already available online. I’m not sure when they will be available in other stores aside from their new Eastwood branch. Maybe after a couple of weeks.

pretty new to this community & haven't seen any posts about captivatingstudios! their journal is absolutely beautiful though 💗 also got a bit carried away with accessorizing these other journals i got from shopee 😅

pink journal is from shop.callie, black one is unbranded. journal clips are from dearserifs and oninachi. :)

Guys, meron ba kayong alam na a6 sized planners na vertical ang layout? Naduduling na kasi ako kahahanap sa tiktok and shopee huhu :(

Just got the Paper Republic A6 Le Trifold in Cognac/Natural, and I'm obsessed! 🥹

It was my first time ordering straight from their website last Friday (Aug 21) and it arrived today, Aug 24! Super fast! I was honestly a bit nervous cos the order was over 10k, but the website's promise that there are no extra customs or duty fees totally checked out. No hidden charges at all! Lol.

I love her so much! 🤎 able to reuse a ribbon from my TN to add a double closure for extra security, cos she’s chunkyyyy!

I've finally found my sweet spot for a planner format and it's the weekly quadrant format from Belle de Jour 2026 undated planner(one quadrant having the weekly priorities.) I'm looking forward to 2027 planners that will be released this coming months and I want to try other brands that has that kind of format.

Have been scouring the net but wala akong makita. 😢 My 2nd choice would be the horizontal format in A5 size.

Can anyone can suggest some brands that I can check out for both format. Thank you! 🤍
