"I could live in a house full of notebooks and journals." Girl, I totally get you!!!
I'm obsessed with journals too. Have been my whole life. I swear there is nothing like the look, feel, smell of a brand new empty journal. The possibilities are endless. Sometimes I stand in the journals section of Barnes and Noble and just touch every single one there.
I thought I was the only person alive who was this obsessed with journals. I love notebooks and journals. I can't stop buying them. :D
Rachel Writes Oh my gosh no i'm a total nut too!! xo
OMG same!! But I never know what to do with them!!
You took the words right out of my mouth.
Rachel Writes You are in good company. I also have a lot of sketch books. I'm the freak in in the art store feeling the paper.
I've watched this video about 4 times already. After a hard day, it is very relaxing to just talk about journals.
+Silhouette Smile I'm so happy to hear that!! Thank you for sharing!! xox
I have too.😀
I really love the thickness of the Miquelrius Flexible Journal. I'll have to get one of my own eventually.
I get so exited every time you post a new video. I started my diy hobonichi and am loving it. I also have been drawing more. I Love all your encouragement and ideas.
I've been using a Peter Pauper Essentials Journal for the past few months and I am in love with it. Definitely give them a look
oooo...the sound of the paper in the miquelrius....I need to try that one, I think. :)
Great video! Really appreciate the reviews - it helps make a decision. And love your enthusiasm! Journals and paper and pens are so cool!
hi vicky
i was just sent a journal from daiso, that is smaller in page count but very similiar to the hobonichi, ive started my diy hobo, in the grid page book from walmart, so i cant wait to finish that one and start this new one!!
I like the fact that more and more people are getting into quality notebooks and journals!
I love it too! and I was unaware how many were out there!
Ah I love journals, too! However, I've had a different experience regarding the Moleskines... My Voilant (? or something like that) does not take fountain pens well, it bleeds through. The same goes for the regular ruled Moleskine notebooks. With a fatter flex nib, it feathers as well. I've also filled two of those Moleskine Sketch books with thicker paper. In my experience, they can take watercolors in very small amounts, but when I cover an entire page lightly with watercolor, the paper gets these really strange specs of grey in it... And my dip pen with a bit of flex to it bleeds through... For drawing, acrylics and gluing stuff in, I like this book, but for more watery things, it's not that good. I prefer watercolor paper or finer writing paper, like Mnemosyne or Midori's MD paper :)
Extremely helpful. Exactly what I was looking for. Thank you so much!
Thank you for this nice journal appreciation video. You are a very good speaker.
very informative video, can you make a video of your favorite fountain pens. I just started using them but would love your opinion on the ones you use.
Thanks for sharing your journals! Could you tell us your tips for printing small photos such as those in your art journal? Do you use a specific photo editing program?
Thanks for your wonderful videos!!!
Yo a journal junkie that found this video in mid 2017 love a good journal review . Just looking for my next journal to buy. Grid\Graph is my favorite style write on.
Happy Birthday! I can't stop buying journals!! I'd love to know the different purposes you have for all your journals. You seem to use all of them so well. Thanks for the video.
Thank you!! If you watch my video on all my current journals I explain more what is each of them. I LOVE buying journals too!!
I'm a total addict!!! I get so many ideas from you. 😀
Journals make me happy too. Love all different kinds. I bought some Leuchtturm1917 at Meijer. They wee $11.24 the last time I went. I started using one for my Bullet Journal but went to the MTN instead. I might go back and fill it up when the current MTN is full. Love your journals.
Oh my goodness!! that's incredible that your meijer had them! I have never seen them there but I am going to have to check it out!! Thank you for sharing!
Just found your channel, happy to find someone who is addicted to books and journals are I am :)
So glad that you are enjoying the channel!
I tested the paper of the Leuchtturm notebooks in a store and wasnt sure if i liked the thin paper, cause i dont like it when the ink looks through the pages. And at the end i didnt buy it. But seeing your used pages here and they look so good, maybe i have to try it. Cause i am still looking for my perfect journal, havent found it yet. Thanks for the video! :)
Oh yes!! I LOVE it!! I definitely think it's a new favorite for me!! I LOvE this book!!
I am so so obsessed with different types of journal. You are not alone. Being from england I was finding it difficult to find the leuchtturm 1917 but I have searched and searched and finally found them in some independent stationery shops!!! I was so excited that I bought 2 in 2 weeks for completely no reason but they will be written and drawn in eventually. (That is once I stop staring at them and how perfect they are) Thank you for sharing your thoughts and reviewing all these great journals. Im always looking for new inspiration and ideas and your channel is just perfect :)
Lauren Chivers Thank you so much for watching. I'm always so happy to find out that there are others like me that enjoy looking at journals and purchasing tons of them!! Glad you were able to find the leuchtturm because it's such a favorite of mine!!
Love your videos Vicky! I too am obsessed with journals and have been for a while. By the way, I recently saw the Fabriano journals at Barnes and Noble - they had different colored papers (in primary colors) and they were the size of the A6 Hobinichi. I would guess it would fit inside the A6 cover. Happy Journaling!!
OOOOHHHH I didn't see those there but I will look for them definitely!! Thank you for sharing!! Thank you for watching!!
Vicky, I thought I was already subscribed to you, but I am now. :-) This is such a great video! You seem to know all the questions I would be asking about the notebooks, and have the answers. Thanks for all the details and links, too. Happy Belated B-day!
Thank you so much for subscribing!! Sometimes youtube I noticed with knock off your subscriptions so I'm glad you caught that! Thank you for the birthday wish!! It was a great bday. I hope I don't disappoint in the future and continue to bring you good videos!
xox
I wish I had the talent that you have of drawing it's amazing... I. A journal junkie and because of you I ordered a mindoi and LOVEE it my fave so far Ty
for some reason, I like 4x3' sketchbooks. it's surprisingly satisfying
I have my smartphone, and I just don't like taking notes there, and if I take them, I just ignore them... It must be on paper to my mind pay attention to it :D ...I know it may sound crazy, but I feel we are the same, I just love buying Journals!!! :D
Try the Peter Pauper Press Essentials Notebook! It's the journal I'm using right now for bullet journaling & journaling in general and I LOVE it! Gonna be so sad to finish it!
Thank you so much! I will have to give that one a try!
Thank you for this wonderful in depth review! I seem to collect journals ;-)
I love your top too by the way!
Thank you so much!! I definitely like to hoard journals!!
I recomend looking at amazon first for lluectrum notebooks. Some of them are cheaper than goulet pens ones. However, i will admit that the ones i have recieved from amazon have like small dents in certain areas but it gives the notebook character.
Great video! How do you print the tiny photos?
Awesome Video, I love these kind of videos too!
Thank you very much!!! very useful review.
I just love putting stickers in my journals and such. They make it easyer to find the page you wont when it is marked with a special sticker.
Do you know if a regular moleskine had thick enough paper to hold pictures and card stock??
Hey Vicky, is that Rius journal the 600 page? I was thinking of ordering it tomorrow. Thank you! :)
Hey you should check out CVS they sometimes have journals or Walgreens they have journals sometimes you would have to ask. Also Target has journals
How is the binding of Pentalic Traveler Pocket Journal Sketch? can it lay flat?
Hello. Maybe you can recommend a thick (meaning many pages )journal with smooth paper. The first one you held up looks nice but i do a lot of writing and would like the paper not to be like course sketch paper. :)
Love your videos!
I think you'd enjoy Rhodia paper (the Goulets do that too ;) ) - comes in lined, plain, dot and grid. I like to buy pads and make Midori and Filofax inserts, but you can get it in notebooks. It's practically perfect fountain pen paper; it really makes inks stand out. Although you may have to wait just a little longer for ink to dry.
Another fabulous video
I have been eyeballing the Rhodia notepads and I was about to order the ice collection that they had for their anniversary so I might have to order it!! Thank you for your ideas!!
MissVickybee
always welcome! Thank you for all your videos :D
So disappointed 😞 I found the Miquelrius Flexible Journals on Amazon but when I went to checkout, it said not deliverable to my address. Do you know anywhere else I may be able to purchase? Great vid 😉
Sooo helpful! Thanks a ton, I'm running out of space in my current crappy one.
Gretchen H Thank you so much for watching!!
the Fabriano journals are top quality :)
I can't get enough of your videos !!!! (:
Desi Ramos Thank you so much for taking the time to watch them!! xo
My favorite brands are Peter Pauper and Paperblanks. Both brands have artistic covers. I don't care for soft covers as they don't hold up as well as hardbacks. I've been journaling for 45 years
If you are ever in NYC, go to Sam Flax. they have a ton of different sizes of Miguel Ruis notebooks. I thought of you when I saw them yesterday.
AHHHHHHH!! I'm going to have to check it out!! Thank you for sharing!!
Happy birthday Vicky! Have you heard of Scout Books or Write Paper? Scout Books is based in Portland, Oregon and Write Paper is made in Baltimore, MD. Write paper donates proceeds to local city schools. Check them out.
Thank you!! OOOOOOHHHHH i am writing it down and I will be checking them out to see their books!!
Thanks for sharing 🌻
I'm thinking your "journal joy" might be contagious!. Thanks for all the good idea's on different journals. I'm a "late bloomer" in the journal world...70yr old. retired artist and I need a good journal that will take abuse as I do mixed media, but I also want quality too. I'm using Moleskine now.
Susan Ann Cherry Setter I'm so glad that you caught this contagious bug!! Better late then never I always say!! Thank you for sharing!!
do you have any advice on how to start learning to draw? I love your hobonichi but I can't draw. I want to start learning.
I recommend watching some of the talented people on youtube!! Watch Bob Ross because I have been watching him since I was a little girl. Take a pencil and paper and just start drawing what you see!!
I loved this video.... I am not much of an artist... well not at all but I do like to write a lot. I have a moleskin and I really like it. I think some of the journals like the last one you showed would be good for my daughter who is an artist. Thank you so much. Your drawings are wonderful.
Thank you so much for watching and let me know if you do end up getting one for your daughter!!
i live in the land of Leuchtturm and I didn't got one yet, yup, chame on me :P
I always keep pushing back and saying: one day I'll get one... i have some copies of that journals and honestly, i've put my hands on one and the quality pays the price...
Hi, I love your videos. I too am an avid journaller but I do worry about my more personal entries being read. Can I ask how you deal with keeping your journals private? Do you worry about them being read? I have thrown journals away in the past because of this worry and I don't want to do that again.
Jill Holmes No I don't worry because if someone is that disrespectful then they don't deserve to be in my life.
MissVickybee Do you ever do electronic journalling
Do you know if Barnes & Noble still has the MiquelRius Journals?
+Ashley Yes last time I was there they still had them!
I ♥ MiquelRius and Moleskine. I don't collect though, I actually use them. I only write on graph paper =)
Dearest Vicky! I just wanted you to know that your vids are also being enjoyed by people overseas - And it is really adorable that so many Americans have difficulties pronouncing German words :D Don't get me wrong, you're doing such a good job! Keep it up with the journal reviews, inspiration is always welcome - Even though I tend to go for journals with handmade paper :P
Marlene Else-Marie Grann That's so incredible that people overseas watch me!! Where are you from if you don't mind me asking? Thank you so much for watching my videos!! xoxo
Haha, yeah, the internet is very handy that way ;) I'm from Denmark, which is just above Germany - Danes don't speak German very well, since it's only our third language, but I have German as my minor at my university, that's why I had to compliment your pronunciation of 'Leuchtturm' ;)
Another brill video! How did you cut your moleskin note book?
X
Thank you!! I just took it to my paper trimmer and just cut a few pages at a time and then the cover I took an exacto knife and cut it down!! Good luck!
Great info
How have the binding held up for all of these? I am super picky about that.
Wonder Midget I don't do too much glueing in my notebooks so they don't get over stuffed. I have them all still and they all are still in tact
MissVickybee thank you for the response. I bought a few of the Miquel journals. However the first one I started using started to rip at the binding. I am going to try another one. I really like the paper and especially love the thickness. I don't glue or use a lot of Washi.
I might need to stopp watching your videos before I go completely broke with all the journals I'm tempted to buy ;)
As for the Leuchtturm notebooks: Its the German word for lighthouse. and your pronunciation actually isn't all that bad. Definitely not one of our easier words :D
Tanja Klement Wow thank you so much! I always feel so bad whenever I say it but thank you!! Thank you for sharing the definition of the word!!
Hi Vicky! If you like smooth, creamy pages then you MUST check out the Quo Vadis brand of journals/planners. You won't be disappointed!!
I buy journals and never know what to do with them. I have one with owls and want to do a picture journal. I'm afraid to mess it up.
Hi! I am 13 and I have recently played Uncharted Golden Abyss. I LOVED the game. I LOVE movies and games about a mistery on a tropic island, so the game was perfect. Nathan Drake has a journal (main character), and that's when I fell in love with journals. Anybody started their love for journals like this, or am I the only one? :)
cahier is french for notebook and pronounced more like cai-yay, leuchttrum is german for lighthouse and is pronounced almost exactly how you said it!! :) great video though!
Happy Birthday! :)
Thank you!!
Ya know I was looking for a reason to go back to Goulet!!
Yes they are really really awesome and I love the personal notes that they send!!
Try The Bullet Journal
we have the same Birthday
A house of journals!?!! Sign me up? Haha. I'm always glad there are other journal junkies out there. I've never used a 1917, but one of their colors is calling my name, i love that orange journal you have.
+TheJournalCEO Oh my gosh you NEED to have a Leuchtturm!! You will LOVE it!!!
MissVickybee
I might just have to spring for the gold one as a late Christmas gift for myself then. Thanks for the enabling. :)
If you like Leuchturm paper for fountain pens, your fountain pen is not wet, it's very dry. The paper is lousy for fountain pens because it ghosts even with medium wet pens. Rhodia is the number one notebook for fountain pen users, and I'd say at least four other brands are far better for fountain pens than Leuchtturm, not counting several more difficult to find brands. Leuchtturm notebooks are excellent for many things, but faountain pens are not one of those things.
I think Walmart is selling Moleskine now.
Dammit. I've been avoiding Leuchtturm for years and now I need a crazt coloured dotty book I'm thinking neon pink maybe.
They are SO bright; open it with sunglasses. I could see my yellow one through the jiffy envelope!
They are incredibly beautiful and I think definitely a favorite!
The real concern is if it opens flat
Great video! I've subscribed. I'm a complete journal addict too. ✒️😊 Twt/Insta @TheCraftyScribe
Yay!! Thank you for subscribing!! I love meeting new journal addicts!!
Sorry Vicky. I gave you the wrong company. It's called Write Notepads. Here is the link: www.writepads.com/
Thank you I did find them and they also featured them in the goblet pens videos which I watch. I am interested in them!! Thank you!!
Hi Vicky! I would love to send you a journal of mine to review. Can you send me your email so I can send you more information? Thanks so much!
