Reading journal March 2023
Although March was a drizzly and cold month this year, with few actual spring-like days, I still wanted to do something cheerful and full of flowers for my reading journal. Just like in February, I used elements from a calendar of last year. Eventually I only used one cut-out from the calendar, namely the patterned paper with pink/orange flowers. This…

Reading journal February 2023
My reading journal for February got an accidental Beauty and the Beast theme. I started with a picture I had printed a long time ago of a lady in a beautiful red dress and a beautifully written font of “Februari” combined with a red-grey pattern, which I cut out of a calendar of last year. Those two elements together immediately…

Reading journal January 2023
The theme of my January reading journal is no coincidence, of course. Since I was behind on setting up my monthly pages, I could use it to draw inspiration from the books I had already read that month. Of course this was Tress of the Emerald Sea. However, instead of going for a green theme, I was inspired by a…

Reading Journal 2023: Set-up
I wanted to start this post by saying that I’m ridiculously late with this post, until I saw that I actuallly said the exact same thing in my 2022 set-up, which was posted even three days later in the Month of March compared to this post. So it seems that I’m actually early this year! 😝 That being said, come…

Reading Journal 2022: looking back
On the Flemish/Dutch part of the blog, I’ve already shared a couple of sneaky looks at my final year spreads for my reading journal of 2022. I’ve shared my reading statistics*, an overview of all the readathons* I participated in and I made a whole post about reading series* and how I keep track of them, in which I also…

Reading Journal December
As in November, I used a piece of paper I found in a bag in the attic for my reading log for December. That piece of paper actually became the entire inspiration for the theme. The paper in question is the green paper with golden dots. A rather Christmassy whole, without pushing it too far. I thought it was ideal…

Reading journal November 2022
In my previous reading journal post I mentioned that I was a bit behind on my monthly spreads and reviews, but thanks to the limbo period between Christmas and New Years I have almost caught up and I am also well advanced with my yearly spreads in my reading journal of 2023! To get my creative juices flowing for my…

Reading journal October 2022
As the end of the year approaches, my attention seems to be scattering in all directions. This is definitely felt in my reading journal, since I only just finished my entries for October. Yes, you read that right, I haven’t even started my November and December setups! Normally I make my setups somewhere in the beginning of the month. Ideally…

Reading journal September 2022
Eep, I’m running behind that marching time again! We are already at the END of October and as I’m writing this post I unfortunately haven’t really worked on my October layout yet and I still have to show you my September reading journal! Luckily I have a very good idea of what I want to do for October, so it’s…

Reading journal August 2022
Inspiration for my August reading journal was drawn from a sheet of stickers from the brand Decotime that I had bought at Action. It featured pastel coloured stickers of cute animals with flowery crowns. All very sweet, not my usual style, but I liked this one so much I wanted to use it for my reading log. I ended up…
