a filofax infodump | ep. 9 ✸
Added 2024-09-28 16:25:58 +0000 UTChi everyone i hope you're all doing okay. thanks for your patience while i worked on the video today 🙇🏻♀️ thankfully it uploaded in a reasonable time frame this evening, so hopefully there won't be any more issues with super long upload times.
i won't spoil the halloween zine too much, but yesterday i spent some time compiling some (thematic) pages on bogs 🌱🔎 very satisfying to have found a way to include them 😅
aside from that and the video, some final photos from the last couple of days:
and from askham bog:
the next week i'll be working really hard to try and finish the halloween zine- i'm currently aiming for 13 A5 pages, which feels a little sad but i'm trying to remove it would be twice as many if i was working smaller 💭 at least if i get a solid few done, then i can add to it a little more over time (if people are interested). i'm also still aiming to include a sticker sheet or two in the halloween release (some of the ceramic-style ghosts, and some of the other elements from the zine, most likely).
once the halloween work is wrapped up, i'll focus on preparing the new/revised A5 filofax pages for you all. appreciate your patience in waiting for these! 📑
i think that's everything this week- but if you have any questions please feel free to leave them in the comments and i'll get back to you. wishing everyone a lovely weekend (or sunday, at least)!
take care and speak soon, friends x

Might hold out and finish the year up in my TNs, but I'm craving that good A5 s p a c e

2024-10-06 20:19:13 +0000 UTCAiming to create an faq/how to video once I've wrapped up the halloween project!

2024-10-06 20:19:09 +0000 UTCYes, I usually try to organise an early release for patrons! I'll make a post here once I'm getting ready with the info

2024-10-06 20:18:46 +0000 UTCAppreciate the tip on an A5 case, thank you! I'll have a look. Very glad to know you enjoyed the video- although sorry for pushing the A5 agenda 😅 I hope it works out for you if you return to it!

2024-10-06 20:17:34 +0000 UTCI'm glad you enjoyed the video! I went through something similar in august, and found the feelings strangely difficult to sit with. I hope you're able to recover some peace and joy in journalling soon- or that the absence of it becomes easier to bear.

2024-10-06 20:14:56 +0000 UTCI use the on screen keyboard, mostly! Usually while resting on an evening, or in bed at night 💭

2024-10-06 20:14:30 +0000 UTCInteresting to know, but I think I'd still be too nervous to consider it without being able to see it in person before buying. Also yes, the 11m rings would definitely be a problem for me, it's so little paper 😅 thanks for the additional info!

2024-10-06 20:13:54 +0000 UTCI've considered it but I'm not particularly good with crafts- I'll keep thinking!

2024-10-06 20:12:59 +0000 UTCthat's really kind, thank you Lauren! I'm glad you liked the photos

2024-09-29 20:06:12 +0000 UTCI think someone mentioned this on your previous infodump, but would you be at all interested in sharing how you create pages in Procreate? I've always been intrigued by that

2024-09-29 17:49:03 +0000 UTCI'm so looking forward to purchasing multiple sticker sets this time. I missed out on the spring release but have seen some in stock now. Is there an early release for patrons? tia

2024-09-29 13:12:07 +0000 UTCMy daughter and I are just repeating this now lol. For me it's a tounge twister though lol

2024-09-29 12:51:14 +0000 UTCThis is what I do! When I made a TN-sized rings it came with two sets of rings, so might make an A5 as well!

2024-09-29 12:04:31 +0000 UTCAbsolutely here for the bog footage (and bog/outdoors attire, my other semi-ironic aesthetic, lol). I'm currently in TN standard but your video just underscored all of the reasons I miss my A5, and am pretty sure I'm going to switch back (or to a rings version) once I'm done my current notebook (hilariously, the convoluted SI release bought me just enough time to realize this, lol). On that note, no idea if it would work, but I have an A5 yuruliku pencase that I use to tote multiple A5 size books and things around (will post pic to discord) but it can hold a lot, the fabric stretches decently, and already does allow for some overhang. Great video as always, really enjoyed the adventures!

2024-09-29 11:58:48 +0000 UTCreally loved this video, especially the bog part. it's so nice to listen to you talk about something you are so passionate about. i haven't really been journaling recently & that has been weirdly calming. i feel increasingly restless about "finding the best system", too many options. but it has been nice seeing you find some calmness in your filofax.

2024-09-28 19:01:46 +0000 UTCI don't think anyone can truly understand the way "bog vlog" has consumed my brain I am constantly just mumbling "bog vlog" over and over to myself thank you megan for the new vocal stim ❤️

2024-09-28 18:43:20 +0000 UTCAbsolutely relate to the memory and energy levels. Been loving my ipad for this reason as well! Question for you, how do you type up your pages? Do you use the on-screen keyboard or a physical one? I’m struggling to find the best system for myself and was curious how you do it 🥰

2024-09-28 18:13:02 +0000 UTCI have a few Plotters, I the plasticky texture is only on the shrink leather. The pueblo has a rough texture and the liscio is your typical smooth leather feel. You can also order them from amazon.jp or I know Atlas Stationers, Dromgoole's and Yoseka carry them, they might ship to the UK. In any case though, I actually think you'd hate it. The rings are 11mm, yours would be full after a week. You'd also need to use a different hole punch, or trim the inside edge of your papers so that they fit properly in the rings. I love my plotters, but I think you'd really regret spending the money with how you like to use rings.

2024-09-28 17:29:00 +0000 UTCIt looks like you can make one of those binder with a ring mechanism and a piece of leather by yourself. wuzhi could be a choice. you can shop one from etsy.

2024-09-28 17:03:57 +0000 UTCI thought this last time, so I will say it this time, I absolutely love your shoes and jacket Megan. I also love the floral and figure statue photos from this post (in particular) I love the way you edit your photos and the light/filter(?) style you choose. Thank you for another vlog. Looking forward to it!
