Jip and Janneke

This month’s theme features the iconic illustrations by Fiep Westendorp for the popular Dutch children’s book ‘Jip and Janneke’ by Annie M. G. Schmidt.

Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland

March takes us into the Victorian era, with Lewis Carroll’s classic children’s novel. 🎩🐇

Le Petit Prince

My theme for February is centered around illustrations of a classic story that follows a young prince and teaches us important life lessons along the way. ✨

Miffy

My muse for this month is Miffy, a cute little bunny created by author and illustrator Dick Bruna.

Daydream

For the new year I am ready to start using a beautiful new journal from Mellow Days. 📔 🖋️

Royal winter

Glitter, blue and gold, it all comes together to create a winter theme with a hint of royal vibes for December. ❄️ ✨

Rain

After the abundant theme of last month, I chose a more minimalist style for November, illustrated with rain related hand painted decorations. ☔

Witchy

Thanks to travel plans and a Halloween party I’m helping to organise this October, I decided to do a spooky witchy theme this year. 🎃 🧙‍♀️

Nautical

For September I chose a theme based on a nautical children’s room concept, in red and different shades of blue.

Enchanted Forest

For this month’s decorations I made use of a colouring book to create a theme in black, white and gold.

Field journal

I checked a few boxes off my wishlist by creating a vintage field journal theme with gold leaf details.

Citrus

June marks the start of summer for me, so I wanted a theme that reminds me of that. The sweet freshness of citrus fruits fits the bill!

Party

With May being my birthday month, I figured it was time to host a little party in my journal. 🎉

Spring

Spring has arrived and I’m celebrating with a pink theme full of cute animals, painted in watercolour.

Cacti

Green cacti with colourful flowers are what March’s theme is all about.

Coffee

I was inspired to continue the brown aesthetic with a coffee theme for February.

We go BIG in 2024

I bought a new journal, that is bigger, to start off the new year with.

Prayers, Crystals, Vitamins

Musings on an excerpt from the award winning book by Eli Clare ‘Brilliant Imperfection; grappling with cure’.
