how to: starting a journal

Here are some tips and tricks on how to start a journal!

Tip 1: Find a Journal - sometimes finding a journal that you want to use to write down all your creative ideas in is hard, if you plan on filling it with stickers and pictures then getting a bigger journal with thicker pages is a better choice. However, if you just want one to jot down your ideas then a small hard-back journal will do!

Tip 2: Pens - pens can also be a tough decision when writing in a journal, sometimes they bleed through the pages or they just don't look how you wanted them to. Personally, I use a ball-point pen but it is different for everyone so try out different pens until you find the one that's right for you.

Tip 3: Creativity - whether you want to do a bullet-ed journal or just something to write all your thoughts you have to be creative! think outside the box and make the journal the way YOU like it. Add doodles, sketches, stickers, photos of anything! Just make it your own and something you can look back on and be happy.

I hope these tips helped you think about what kind of journal you would like to start! Just remember to be creative and make something that will make you happy! Whatever you create I know that it will be amazing!
