Hello again! Welcome to my monthly peek into my bullet journal. This month, much like last month I took a lot of inspiration from Plant Based Bride over on youtube and her blog, http://plantbasedbride.com. I took her theme and quote and then added in my own style to it and my spreads that work from me. If you have never seen her stuff before, I suggest taking a look. She is very talented.
First off I loved her use of peaches for July, I know I am eating a ton of fruit this time of year so I loved this. I drew her images on my into page and then used my stamps for the month. I also decided to keep my spreads mainly monotone, but with a splash of peach. Which, you can see on my calendar overview.
I absolutely loved this quote that she used this month, so I decided to add it to mine as well. If I am not mistaken it is a quote from Dita Von Teese. I changed the font to just my hand writing and added in a little pop of color instead of going all out with the coloring. In the past I have noticed when I add color I tend to ruin my spreads by over doing it. I really loved this new social media calendar that I tried last month so I added it again. I wish I had used this spread sooner to track by blog and insta posts.
Next is my much loved book tracker. I have used this tracker through two different bullet journals and I am going to keep it for a long while I think. It is just really satisfying to see how long it takes to read a book and how often I actually read.
Here is my TBR for the month of July. You may have seen my TBR post, if you have you will notice I added another book in there. Since I loved Good Omens so much when I read it last month I wanted to read more works by Terry Pratchett so on the guidance of quite a few people I decided to start with Mort.
Last, but the most useful to me on a daily basis would be my weekly spreads. At this time I have not added the hours in the little squares on the left side of the day because my schedule has recently changed and I need to find a new balance with that.
It looks so good!

Oh, that is great. I hope you have a bunch of fun with it. I know mine has changed a lot since I have gone through 7 or 8 notebooks already. It is fun to look back and see how much your needs and life change and how it evolves overtime. Have fun with it!

Pratchett is HILARIOUS. Do you know which one you’ll read next? I think Soul Music is next in the Death series… Or there’s Wyrd Sisters if you’re keen on trying a Witch one!! (They’re my fave of them all, with Death a close second)

He really is, I wish I found his works sooner. According to the chart I have I am reading Mort then Reaper Man, Soul Soul Music, Hogfather, Thief of Time and then The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents. I am going to read all the death ones and then see which “mini series” I am feeling next. I have heard the witches ones are great too.

Of course!! I forgot about Reaper Man… My books are all out of order since the move, but I did manage to collect all the Pratchett’s and put them on one shelf yesterday.

Oh, that sounds lovely! I love when I can fill a shelf with an authors work. I think I can only do that with HP and Stephens Kings works at this time. A few are close to filling a shelf though. But yeah, moving always puts things. out of sorts for a while.
