*wave of hello from a newbie*

I love to decorate my Ink and Volt planner with paper ephemera from places like:

Saturday AM Vintage (shop and SaturdayAMVintage)

and Etsy shops like LoveJunkJournals who makes the best printable labels.

Pretty much all of my pens and washi are from JetPens, and I'm a sucker for Blackwing pencils. :)

Thank you! :)

Oh no. Basically I just buy things on Etsy, journaling/pen shops (mostly CultPens.com* for pens/ink), and occasionally Amazon. And it’s all UK stuff (because I hate dealing with VAT and customs) so probably not much use to most of the comm.

(*I miss Goulet Pens from my years in the States…)

Tutorials… hm… may come back later and add more.

I buy very little stationary, but what i do get is usually from the local art store, or occasionally Müller. I recently ordered the planner i designed through Lulu and apparently it's been printed and sent to me. I love that i could do that.

For inspiration, i usually watch The Organized Money and Xandra The Witch, who is a bit sporadic.

I think that the closest i get to tutorials is (re-)reading The Bullet Journal Method and The Moon Book.

Ha! At this point most of my shopping is from the Shelf Of Notebooks I Bought Ten Years Ago and the mugs of Pens I Should Use Before They Dry Up. Sometimes also the box of I Don't Win Anything If I Die With The Most Stickers.

Basically, buying stationery and whatnot and using stationery and whatnot were divergent hobbies for a long time. ^^;;

[lunabee34]

Ha ha ha ha ha ha.

Yes.

I have a Drawer of I Should Never Buy a Notebook Again Ahem.

Pens etc:
JetPens
Goulet Pens

Stationery: I love NotebookTherapy, which sells gorgeous notebooks and washi and absolutely lovely stamp collections - I've gotten very into stamps as simple decoration I can do fast (i.e. before I lose attention span) and pretty.

I cannot live without my Staedtler fineliners, I have the 20 colour pack and colour code my planner for all areas of things that go in there.

For stickers, I just hit up Etsy. Search for whatever I'm looking for at the time, preferably UK based shops. Favourite shops include
https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/NooNooAndBob
https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/HappyCutieStudio
https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/DorkyPlannerGirls
https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/ThumbelinaPrint

Those are nice fineliners; I have one in a soft purple color.

These days, I've been planning/journaling so long, I don't really use tutorials other than for their aesthetic value. I like watching people make pretty things.

I get my journal cover from Oberon Design: https://www.oberondesign.com/collections/journals-notebooks-portfolios

Pens from:
Tokyo Pen Shop: https://tokyopenshop.com/
Goulet Pens: https://www.gouletpens.com/
Jet Pens: linked in the above comments

Journals directly from Leuchtturm: https://www.leuchtturm1917.us/

Otherwise, I browse Pinterest for lettering ideas, layouts, and such.

That hand tooled leather is swoon worthy. Wow.
