I'm so surprised I hadn't realised you've not done the dutch door before! I've done them for years and love them, hope you enjoy it! TIP for you, to avoid having those raw edges from the cut pages, keep the top 'layer', don't cut it off with the rest. Then glue it down, covering that whole top bit. So you would do your tracker on this glued piece. So everything is hidden and it also helps so that the top isn't way thinner than the rest of the book. You can also cut them a little longer and then glue each one down before covering with the last page if you want to keep page strength! I've also alternated before, one month the tracker would be at the top, the next at the bottom, so that the book is a bit more even! Hope this helps!! xoxo from New Zealand.
Oh, that's genius! Thank you, Liza!!
I love this! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for the tip!!!
That is clever. :)
That's such a great idea!
As someone who doesn't care at all about how my journal looks, it was was almost too painful for me to watch this 😂 "just do it!!!! Make the cut!!!" was all I kept screaming at the TV 😂 the dutch door looks great, Kara
I’m so glad you kept the hot mess in the video 🤪😂👍
me too. I think that you tubers that show their hot mess side show how they are human too. I hate folks that portray perfection.... gives everyone else a complex. LOL
“Let’s grab my pencil again... let me figure out my life”
Truer words have never been spoken! Loved the video! I’m definitely trying this out.
Who would have thought that a “plan with me” video would have me on the edge of my seat?!
Haha! It was a wild ride for sure!
I’ve missed your plan with me videos... glad you’re back! That was stressful cutting for you, but I kind of enjoyed it because it wasn’t stressful for me! 😁😁😂. I did love the final product! Purple is my favorite color, so I loved you using it with the orange, and I liked the bright orange tabs,, but that could be because I like bright orange (my nails are bright orange right now)! 😁😁😁
Love your back to planning & I love the “real time” & not fast forwarded everything...
Gives me motivation to plan with you!!
Dutch doors have either never made sense or terrified me. But I may want to give them a try now. I don’t know if I’ll use them for October, since I have the Boho Berry box, but I’ll see what the vision board meeting inspires me to do. Thanks for showing every step of this, Kara. It let me know I’m not the only one terrified.
Thank you for this video! I had a fantasy of using lots of Dutch doors in my journal but watching the actual process has made me realise they are not going to work for me! You saved me from a world of pain! Bless you 💕
Watching you trim the bits from the cuts felt like watching someone cut their own bangs. Just a little more here...just a little more on this side... 😂😂
I loved the dutch doors! Adds functionality with lots of room for change and creative flair :) Also, I super appreciate you leaving in you talking to yourself about what you were going to do/stressing out about because that's totally me too! Can't wait to get my hands on those Tombow neon pencils!!
Oh Girl, you can't say how much I've missed that jingle and your ideas. From the very beginning you've been the one keeping me inspired for Bulletjournaling 🤗🤗🤗
I’ve only seen vertical Dutch doors. This one looks so difficult! Also a tip for tabs, if you start from the last page and work your way forward, it’s easier to line up.
What do vertical doors look like?
Kara, I am so happy that you are feeling so much better and you're back with your Plan with Me videos. You were the first person who really helped me articulate why I bullet journal and gave me tools to make it work for me, I love the mix of artistry and functionality of your spreads. And you're always so real about where you are in life and you're not trying to make your journal completely perfect. I love the authenticity of your channel, it's so refreshing. Thank you so much for all that you do! SO HAPPY you're back!
Just started watching this and I’m already so happy that we’re getting a “Plan with Me”. It’s been so long!!! Thank you!!
Hi, Kara! Glad to see that you're recovering well and to see you settling back into your plan with me's! Hopefully your cold goes away soon. I have missed these kinds of videos and appreciate you being vulnerable with us and showing us your "real life" experiments in your planner! Can't wait to hear how you like the Dutch doors!! (also, thanks for the 44 minute video😂 loved it!)
So great to see a bujo vid from you! Surprisingly I have been tracking my habits all month this month for the first time ever. 🤣
Kara, glad to see a Plan With Me video from you again. I wanted to tell you to just breathe girlfriend! I love your nervous giggles. You have always impressed me with your authenticity. You are REAL. It helps us all know that it's ok when we're nervous too. It all works out! YOU are my Bullet Journaling hero!
Im so glad you came up with a new setup... I'm constantly looking for new weeklies and this new one you've created looks pretty dang promising!
Yay!
I'm so glad you decided to do a plan with me. I love seeing how the idea came to life. This is how I do my scrapbooking. An idea first then in production it's like this video. Here is an idea for you. They do make cutting mats for scrapbooking that are self healing and they come in handy when using exact knives. You can also use an eyelet setter mat as well to put between the pages. Thank you so much for all of it. I love the Dutch door!!
I'm glad you stepped out of your comfort zone and did a Dutch door! I felt the same when I did it the first time. But you will love it!
Enjoy this month.
Thanks for trying something new, and letting us see some of your behind-the-scenes process to figure it all out! I haven't been keeping up with my habits, either, and sometimes just use the habit tracker sheets you've made for us and stick them on a clipboard that I stand up near my desk to keep it visible, but I love this Dutch door idea for keeping it in the BuJo.
Kara, I always love watching you plan and love your handwriting. You did a great job with doing the Dutch door for the first time!!!tfs!!🌟💛💜
Thank you, Cathy! It was a very nerve-wracking morning 😂
Super excited to see that your plan with me was more in-depth and you took us through it without speeding it up. I miss your plan with me videos that were like this! So happy for this one.
I got nervous about posting videos that were “too long” for a while, but I think I’m going back to this longer format from now on... I like it better too! ❤️
@@Bohoberryshop You can count on me to be here! ❤
This is my favorite plan with me video that you've done. I'm not the only one that has those planning conversations with myself.
This was the most relatable pwm I have ever seen. I am so glad you left in the "hot mess" parts, it made this video the most realistic and honest thing on the planning part of CZcams. Thank you!!!
That was very encouraging, I have thought about dutch door before but wasn't sure I wanted to cut my journal. I love this set up and I think I might try it. This could be the layout I need to get my life focused & on track. Thank you for share and allowing yourself to be transparent. I love watching your videos for many reasons, one being that you show the ups & downs where others edit so that only the perfect is shown. Everyone make mistakes and you show how to embrace those and how to bounce back/over come. Love your heart to teach and encourage. You're awesome!
love how you filmed the error-so genuine
your nervousness reminds me of myself 😂😂
❣️❣️❣️
gave me inspiration to do my journal journey
So happy to see these videos again!!! I decided that I really don’t enjoy cutting Dutch doors. Too stressful. So, I do a habit tracker vertically down the side then fold pages to give the Dutch door rather than cutting. I do my habit tracker top to bottom on half the page then fold all the other pages in half to write vertically and fold the pages over each other in order to always see the tracker.
I've been too nervous to make cuts in my notebook too, so it was really cool seeing you be brave! I love your plan with me videos, they always inspire me :)
This was so entertaining and probably my favorite plan with me you've done!
and the Bujo Queen trembles :D It is okay. Yes, shaggy happens. I tend to cut close and then use a very nice washi to set the base pages so they don't tear out. I also use those tabs you grabbed and ALWAYS trim them , both the clear parts and the colored part. I use a sharpie to write on them...no smearing. You did the right thing:D Nice to see you back up and running...and fun.
I think trembling is the correct term 😂 I do feel like I got through it pretty well though... and I love your idea to trim the colored part of the tabs as well. If I decide to stick with Dutch doors next month I’ll definitely give that a shot! Thank you, Tari!
really love this "bulk" Dutch Door Planner idea! Thx for sharing your creativity!
I always thought 'I don't need a dutch door. It's innovative but not useful for me' and this video changed everything. Totally trying this out. It helps be focused on the monthly goals and view the week at the same time. Thanks a lot
I love how you just chuckle through everything haha
I loved this video. It was so real and authentic - thank you so much for doing this as a PWM, and letting yourself be real!! ❤️❤️
OMG I have never been so tense watching a bujo video!! I love this idea, I may have to give it a try for November....
I love your videos!! I have missed them so much! Welcome back! Thank you for sharing your thought processes. It has made me think a bit on my layouts.
When I make my Dutch door layouts, I cut with a nice pair of regular scissors. Then put a ruler near the binding and hold down, and tear against it. Works pretty well. You want a little bit of an edge so the binding doesn't come undone.
I am so glad your back I have missed your videos they are one of the things that got me started with bullet journaling. I have been struggling with my usual layout and might give this one a shot. It looked super easy to do. Loved it!
I have missed your Plan with me videos...I was riveted by your cutting. I was so nervous for you. 😄
Thanks, Pamela! I was nervous for myself all over again while I was editing the video and I already knew the outcome 😅
I love this Kara, your planning inspired me so much that I dropped everything, grabbed by own BuJo are recreated October in Dutch doors! Also, my absolute FAVOURITE part of the video is the "Aaah, they line up!!" at 27:19 :D
I would just cut the excess Orange tabs off from the top. I have been using post it tabs in my bullet journal for 3 years now and that's what I do to keep them from sticking out the sides of my note book too far. I cut them so that they are flush with the notebook cover that I use.
Thank you for your courage to try new things!🤗
I'm so impressed and have so much fun to watch your video. Thank you for this ❤️
My favorite part of this video is the way you giggle at yourself every time you go to cut something. Your plan with me videos are so fun to watch! Thanks for bringing them back! ❤️
Wow I’m obsessed with this layout!!!
I like how you did the dutch doors. I have been inspired to possibly try it. Great job!
What an awesome idea for the set up. I love it!
I just bought two journals (and the cutest stickers) from Compoco! They are so lovely! Also, I am loving this PWM... The suspense! I was hollering at the screen like Blue’s Clues! 🤣
They really are awesome journals! I may or may not have three 😅
Thus is the first time I see a journal being cut, but il loving this idea!
I think the green tabs would work even better! Nice orange-purple-green for Halloween 👻 Can’t wait to see how you like using the Dutch doors!
I do think, that if you put the little, sticky, orange things on the "backside" of the pages, they will not come off, when you turn the pages.
Im addicted to your videos! So happy to see this! X
Ohmygosh, I have paper cutting tips! I was shouting at my phone (with love) to use a finger exacto, and then you opened yours, lol! I recommend a small self- healing cutting mat, and the rotary cutter. I've had the same mat for over 20 years, they're awesome. And the more you use the exacto the better you'll get, use a metal ruler if you get the rotary for straight lines. I'm going to try Dutch doors for the first time this month too, and even though I'm currently using a discbound planner, I'm just as scared to start cutting! Eeeeek!
Because those tabs come off easy I suggest using your purple washie along each door to secure and prevent pealing off. I have used those tabs before and cutting away the sticky made it easy for them to peal off
You could make a thumb index with a circle punch instead of the tabs for your Dutch door pages and write the dates in the half moon space.
I love that idea!!
I am SO glad you did the Dutch door! I have been wanting to try it but have the same fear as you! Glad you went for it! Guess I may have to give it a shot! 😬
I totally know that feeling!! When I did Dutch Doors for the very first time I was terrified because I thought that I’d ruin my whole notebook😫😂 I even practised it in the back of an old one so I don’t screw up😂
Kara, watching you stress stressed me out! Sticky notes are great for this, use them to mark out the pages, OR use the space you're cutting off to write the week out!
Sorry I stressed you out! I feel good that I got to share my real process when trying to figure out new things though 😅 Thanks for the tips!
Oh, I missed these plan with me´s!!
Thanks for another awesome inspiring video. Would love to see your process each week with your dutch door. So brave! I have never done one but I have taken book making classes. I was taught when using a knife to cut paper, to press lightly using several strokes to cut. Of course, you would need a metal ruler to guide the line.
I'm Dutch.. but I had never heard of a "Dutch Door" for planners ... you learn something every day 😀
Cool. I'm going to try this for my December spread.
Not sure if it would’ve worked in this case, but you also might consider using the scraps from your dutch door cutting to cover the tear/any mishaps you have. The washi tape looked great imo, but I just thought I’d offer another way to fix a problem!
Younger Me: YAY! A new PWM! So relaxing!
Older Me: I need to lay down in a dark quiet room with a warm cat o_O
lol GO YOU for trying something new & terrifying! SO HAPPY to have you back!
I like the idea of Dutch doors, but I really don't want to thin out sections of my notebook by cutting chunks out. I'd probably just make the horizontal cut and try to find a use for the top sections, something independent from the lower sections. And then paperclip them together so the main/most frequently used one is the one that automatically shows up when I open my spread.
Too much work for me, though, since I really don't need that much organisation right now 😂
I weep over the loss of snipped pages. Not using the entire page makes me feel like I'm wasting paper.
This is a very good planning but I already have done mine... I will be waiting for your video for my november planning !
Thank you !
"It's not very straight at all"
Me : mood
(that dutch door is such a good idea tho, your month looks gorgeous)
This was fun ! I love this idea so much! Thank you :)
I have to have my habit tracker on my weekly because I don't use it otherwise. This is a really clever solution!
I love this and am going to try it thank you!
I have been struggling finding some way to track my habits because I actually don't use the monthly as much as I should since I use Google calendar.
I will be trying this!!
Thank you!
Love this set up. If you start from the back page putting on the tabs you won’t have to mark them. Just put the page before down and line up from the back page. 😊
Video was down to earth. Very real. I was nervous too
It's so cute to see how nervous you are 😂 I think I would have ripped out the pages instead of using this fingertip thingy or the scissors. I'm contemplating doing a Dutch door myself now, thanks for giving me the idea 😊
Love your bujo set up. TFS x Andrea
wow, great idea, thank you!! 🤩🤩 It looks great!!
I use a disc bound bullet journal so when I cut it isn't as exciting as this 😂
I think you did great though and hopefully you will do another one if it works for you.
i really enjoyed this & might recreate something similar 💛
Tip for cutting a straight line with any Xacto knife: place a ruler right next to where you want to cut and use multiple passes with light pressure on the knife rather than one pass with hard pressure.
Thank you for keeping it real. I'm a newbie so I'm always pretty nervous about what I'm doing.
Love your daring Kara! I feel much less nervous to try this! Hooray!
I was so excited to see a new plan with me video 🥰. Love the dutch doors. You were smart not to do all of your weekly's. I did that a few months ago and hated it. What are other layouts you've never done but want to try one day?
I always wanted to do Dutch door, but I get scared at the cutting part! Lol! Great job!
We don't make mistakes. We have happy accidents ;)
I've only done one version of Dutch door. It was more of a vertical layout where I cut off the left and right sides of the page spread. And the Dutch doors are in the very middle where the binding is. But I really liked how yours turned out.
Love this. Those cut edges in the middle would be gone!! Is it wonky to right on the top page (unlevel under right hand) or do you cut as the weeks progress? I am visualizing several Dutch doors, like Kara has here.)
@@maganlewis9663 I cut all the Dutch doors at once. I did it for about two weeks of days. I did my dailies in the middle/Dutch doors themselves. Then I used the sides for a mini calendar and a readathon tracker I was participating in that month.
I've been wanting to do it again. I was thinking I'd do it for the Oct 14-20 to keep track of Spookathon. @khiggs_ute on Instagram if you want to see that later in the month.
I used washi to cover some “hot mess” cut moments!
dont be so scared :) I have been doing this for a while, almost same design just no tabs.I leave 1-2 dots from the side spine at the top. I didn't like so much at first but now it helps catch where the pages are and it doesn't bother me.
Thanks for this video !!
First time watching one of yours but not the first time i've heard about you !
Those spreads are really beautiful et seems so useful ! But thanks for letting us see that "messy part" so that people will stop thinking "making a monthly spread is SUPER easy and doesn't take a lot of time" ... well, if you want to make a spread like yours, it may take some time !!
For the tabs, you could have take some washi folded in 2.
And for the dutch door, you could have tried a vertical one (much easier to cut ^^)
By the way, i am NOT a bullet journal addict (i try to keep one but i am kind of lazy about noting things in it) but i like to watch videos and tutos about it 😉
Have a good day !
So excited to see a plan with me from you! Why don't you just do your habbit tracker down the side and cut the side of each page. That would avoid cutting near the binding.
This pwm was so stressful but it was totally me! I appreciate you sharing your fear and concerns (which btw is prob why you're making those funny voices - you're being real with us). Thank you!
also: fudenosuke [foo-deh-no-skeh]
Try a self-healing mat that quilters use with a rotary cutter!
I just purchased an OLFA small rotary cutter (18mm) from amazon and I think it would be perfect for cutting out the dutch door!
I like this layout, even if it wouldn't work for me (I use just monthly and dailies). I use a Dutch door on my monthly, and the first one I cut caused panic for me as well.
Really missing your vlogs! Xx
do you have a screen protector on your ipad? if so which one is it? and do you like it?
Loving this video! So cute - I would be exactly the same ie terrified about cutting into the journal. What is the “waiting for” section for?
For the tab situation, you could trim the paper just a bit more or trim tab, and also you could double up on the tab, put one on the back of the sheet and stick it together with some double sided tape, just a thought. Love your spread by the way, I enjoyed the idea of the tabs and double doors.
if you do a vertical dutch door and cut the sides would be easier .. that way you dont mess with the spine
