the attic archives | ep. 47 ✸ cd's, halloween shopping, a TN infodump 

Really enjoyed the journal flip through! It would be cool for the end of year flip to see your progression through the notebooks you used.

So excited about the habit trackers, they look perfect! Thank you for sharing and for leafing through your beautiful notebook with us.

Treasure by the Cocteau Twins is utterly gorgeous, an all-enveloping cloud of crystalline loveliness. Well, I think so anyway. :-) Wishing you joy of it.

Yes, the crappy glue is great because you could always take the unwanted photo out!😂

The sound of the retractable frixion pen is music to my ears, truly.

also idk if you’ve tried it before, but i use the “tombow mono adhesive permanent” to paste photos in my notebooks and it works great ! it’s like a glue tape and is in a correction tape type thing. it’s a bit tricky/finicky to apply, but worth it (i think)

We must be on the same wavelength because before I even I saw your new notebooks in your videos, I started getting back into designing my own pocket notebooks (I wish I knew of somewhere where I could I get them professionally done-I bind mine by hand). I really wanted a small notebook I could use for Commonplacing next year that had margins and page numbers. Now i’m really tempted by yours, though. They look SO good! BTW, I was catching up on your vids and saw a Crystal Castles cd in one of them, which was such a throwback for me. Hope you get some cooler weather soon. Thanks for sharing your days with us.

You might like the pritt tape glue. It’s refillable, and comes in permanent or not, so if you want to peel something back up you could. Plus I find for small pictures, one cartridge lasts ages.

The Korn follow the leader CD was one of the very first CDs I bought on my own. Nowadays I'm more of a vinyl girl but it was the start of my physical music collection so it has a special place in my heart.

The best thing to wake up to 🫶🏼 your videos are literally my daily dose of serotonin atp, I rewatch them every day hehe 🌷

I use stencils to mark the weather icon, and I realized that you could hole-punch a paper to make your own DIY stencil, and then use your favorite mildliner or brush pen to fill in the circle. I just wanted to share even tho it sounds like more effort than sticking with the dot markers 😅🫶🏼

Thank you for the flip through (: it's always so inspiring to see how you use your journals ❤

I love your videos, they're so relaxing 😌 I look forward to more autumnal content 🎃🍁

I love the halloween shopping , here we don't celebrate so i like to see the cute halloween stuff 🥰

loved the video, so cool to hear you talk through your journal progress this month. so glad this experiment has worked out well for you and i’m excited for the prospect of trying it out myself sometime soon!

Just arrived home and I’m so happy to see a new video up! I’ll be playing it as I make dinner. Really love the cozy vibes, and I’m giddy that the vid length is long 💕

So excited for everything you’ve been doing in exploring different systems and catering them to your own needs. It was oddly satisfying to watch you open your CDs with your nails, haha. Hope it starts cools down soon! 🍂👻

As for glue recs, I've always loved rubber cement. It's archival and things always lay down nice and flat/smooth, nor lift back up. Plus you never have to worry about glue spilling out the sides of whatever your putting down because you can pick up the excess with the rubber grip.

If you can bear 'wet' glue (not sure how to explain it? like PVA) then I can reccomend nuvo - it's super easy to apply since the bottle has a v narrow nozzle, it doesn't wrinkle, and dries quickly but not so quickly you can't move things if you need to. I found out about it from the scrapbooking community when I was working on some collages.

The Standard TN is my favorite size. Always was.

I love your desk set up ❤

Halloween, yes it’s a coming, I’m all booked off. Just me Dracula some Witches, Werewolves and the Gang.

Cocteau Twins is Top 5 ultimate planning/journalling background music for me :) great albums all around and love the new TN direction. I find it suits me brilliantly for all the same reasons - I'm still tweaking my dream layouts but will be borrowing from yours for sure (just got the digital downloads). Take care and can't wait for more!

love all those korn albums

in regards to the crappy glue have you tried glue tape? I've used it a couple of times and can definitely attest to its usefulness. Much cleaner as well

We will always support and your endeavors. Keep working hard.

Hey! Thanks for making this video! What pen do you use? I am also jealous of your small handwriting!

Megan what nib size is your Frixion pen? Mine never seems to write as dark as yours. Love your videos, they induce a serious calm for me ❤

❤ Thank you for sharing! It all looks awesome! 😊

a mall goth at heart

Is that a weighted blanket on your bed? And if so which one is it and would you recommend it? Xx

Hi! You made this insert yourself? Looks amazing 🤩

It's interesting, usually people are using 31 pages for their one page a day planners, and you are using them for your commonplace notebook. How does it work-one page a day?🎉❤

love your videos! this is probably a very random, weird question, but what sort of glue stick is that? (edit: course I commented before you got to it 😅)

I’ve always been curious but what brand is your CD player? It’s so pretty

You could cover the staples with washi tape, so they won't be annoying.

Do you mind telling me what cd player it is that you use

Your videos are so relaxing ☺️ Could you tell me the name of the pen you use on this video? I would love to try it , looks awesome.

What brand is your CD player?? It’s so nice

32:55 what kind of bag are you using? 🙈

Which Joan Didion article do you refer to ?

Have you thought about sketching your movies out instead of printing them?😊

What notebook do u use please?

I'm begging you do not go back to double-sided tape, it messes up the picture with oil and falls off completely in a few months to a few years, if you're lucky.

Will your little habit trackers be available for digital sale? And will your books ever be available to for the U.S.??🫶

Welcome to the frixion clicker pen group 🫶
