What’s Redbubble?

Redbubble is a print-on-demand company that allows independent artists to sell their artwork on a variety of products. The idea is that Redbubble does all the manufacturing and shipping, so the artist can focus on making great artwork!

I found Redbubble through other artists who joined the platform and started selling their designs. I really love the product variety available, the quality of the products and the customer service. So I opened up my own Redbubble shop with a bunch of sticker designs.

Redbubble is a totally legit website with great customer service, so you can be completely confident ordering products from them as a customer, as well as selling your own designs if you are interested in that.

These days, there are so many different websites out there, sometimes it’s hard to tell what is real or a scam. Thankfully, Redbubble has been around for a long time, they pay their artists as agreed upon and make great products!

Why Redbubble?

Of course, there are so many print-on-demand companies out there, why choose Redbubble? Well, for one you are supporting independent artists, instead of a mass market design where you don’t even know who made the art.

I also turned specifically to Redbubble because they have removable stickers, which is really unique! The individually cut vinyl sticker designs are super high quality. You can reuse them and reposition them, wherever you like to decorate, so it’s great value and fun too!

Besides top quality, the shipping is pretty fast even though I live in a tiny Italian town and they have very responsive customer support. You can contact them directly on the website, chat live or even reach them through social media. It’s always good when a real person responds to your questions!

I think Redbubble rocks!

From my experience, Redbubble is an amazing company with high-quality products and a win-win setup for customers and artists who sell on the platform.

You should definitely Redbubble on social media as well, because they have sales and offers throughout the year that make supporting your favorite artists affordable too!

I hope you got something out of my Redbubble review. All opinions are my own, just my honest take from my personal experience. Remember to check out my Redbubble shop here! I will continue to add artwork there and don’t forget to check out all the other amazing artists. The next time you need a gift or new hoodie, consider buying and supporting an independent artist’s work!

Printable Blank Calendar (it’s pretty and FREE!)

Looking for a cute printable blank calendar for monthly planning? Download this minimal modern design featuring monstera leaves on pink.

FREE printable blank calendar monthly - Pink with monstera leaves

When it comes to planning, sometimes you really need to see that monthly overview in a clean and clear format. So I created my own blank monthly calendar printables to help myself with high-level planning or whenever I feel like I need to write it all out. 

Originally I designed a very plain monthly calendar with a Monday start, however I have updated the design to be completely a blank monthly calendar that you can fill in yourself. I think that makes it the most versatile, so whether you start on Sunday or Monday, you can use for whatever purpose you need. 

Often folks will use printables as a pre-planning insert or a way to brainstorm a plan before committing in your actual bound planner. Others like to have multiple monthly views to put around the house for different applications – such as on the fridge for general family use or in another room for tracking a daily chore. The sky is the limit! 

When life is busy and overwhelming, a blank monthly calendar can come in handy to help with a general braindump planning session, right?

I love doodling and drawing little illustrations and floral wreath designs are the most fun. There are so many variations possible and I thought they would make a great design for a circular sticker. So that’s how the design for these printable numbers came to life!

For this version, I chose a very girly pink floral design that is simple, yet chic. You can use a digital cutting machine to print and cut these out or just plane ‘ole scissors works fine too.

End of 2018 // Art Journalling Review

Art Journalling has been a blessing in disguise this past year. A place to express myself with marks, colors, images and journaling! I decided to take a look back on the many journals I have created. It’s a way to say goodbye to 2018 and welcome 2019 with open arms.

Do you like to art journal? How often do you actually look back at your old journals and flip through? It can be very satisfying to see what you have created, but also helps you to see your growth, your change, over time. I hope you enjoy and thank you for watching!

I know we all have personal preferences when it comes to our very own planners. I’m certainly always searching for planner peace myself! One thing I’ve learned from trying different planners, systems and printables – is that you just have to actually USE whatever planner you choose. It doesn’t matter if it’s a printed hardbound planner, your own bullet journal or various printable sheets.

Sounds obvious, but the best planner is whatever planner you actually use!

Of course, we all have personal preferences, so that’s why there are so many options out there. You never know what might drive you to love your planner or perhaps to hate and abandon it instead. I think it’s important to try different things to see what really suits your life. It’s also important to note that our lifestyles change over time, so it’s not uncommon to have to tweak or change your system altogether.

Since I work primarily at my desk, I actually don’t need a bound planner to carry around. I find it more freeing to use loose sheets of paper. I think it’s because planning for me is about getting all the things out of my head and on paper. However, I rarely look back on weeks that have already passed. I’m totally done with them!

So I switched to printable planner pages that give me the ultimate flexibility without breaking the bank!

I’m able to try a variety of layouts and planning systems, creating my own printables… instead of spending on fancy planners that I might abandon after just a month of use. We all know how costly planners are these days, right? They are so trendy and the cost has just been going up and up. Granted, many are guidebooks with lots of other sections and advice, not just empty calendar pages.

However, for me personally, I’ve found that simplicity is the best.

I’ve created a straightforward monthly list page for important dates and a weekly planner sheet with a Monday start. There’s just enough room for a couple daily tasks or appointments on each day, plus a spot for dinner plans. Then there’s two lined lists at the bottom for this week to do’s and next week to do’s. That’s it!

I find it to be a time saver to not have to draw out my layouts week to week and because I get my creative fix of art and journaling in other places, I truly use these planner sheets for planning and that’s it. I certainly want something nice and neat to look at, but I don’t keep these pages for the rest of my life. I rarely look back at old pages honestly!

For now, I’ve settled upon these two planner pages that I use regularly. I wanted to share these printable planner pages as a free download, in hopes they might help you along your planner journey. I also made a video of how easy it is to setup for a new month.
