I am continuing my planner/journal/diary set-up the same way each month this year (check out my March and April set-ups, if you missed them). May will continue this process and each month my process is getting a little more streamlined and easier to do. I start by pasting in a monthly overview calendar. The last…
I have moved on to the “swatch the unswatched” phase of my Ink 100 Project. Check out my previous posts including, Part 1: Admitting I have a Problem and Part 2: Color Inventory is Hard. I needed to swatch 37 bottles of ink in order to move forward in my Ink 100 project. It was…
