Ephemera....my absolute favorite craft supply! But because it is my favorite, that means I have a lot 😂 In today's organization video I am talking about some common ways to categorize and store ephemera, and sharing with you my top way to organize it!⁠ Rongrong just released a new sticker book called "I Can & I Will" and it is everything we love about Rongrong! Chic girls and gorgeous illustrations, all wrapped up in a pretty seasonal package! I am sharing a full flip-through of the book over on my YouTube channel and also a bonus plan with me. Check it out!⁠ It has been just over two weeks since my Patreon page launched, and I am truly blown away by the support! My patrons are the best 💕 We are having a fabulous time over there with fun discussions, exclusive videos, and crafty zoom calls. Plus, I even mailed out the first round of happy mail last week!

It may be slow going, but I am still enjoying documenting some of our favorite family traditions. And, I know that I will really love looking back on this album in years to come!⁠ My husband asked for help putting together a planner! Yup, I jumped at the opportunity to help him get a bit more organized for the year. I love Happy Planner for all its bright colors, but it also has tons of neutral options that work for a more professional look. He is really enjoying this new system! Check out the video to see what all I added in...⁠ "Here is the true meaning and value of compassion and nonviolence, when it helps us to see the enemy's point of view, to hear his questions, to know his assessment of ourselves. For from his view we may indeed see the basic weaknesses of our own condition, and if we are mature, we may learn and grow and profit from the wisdom of our brothers who are called the opposition." -Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., 1967 The Squad Girls sticker books will forever have my heart 💕. What sticker book is your favorite?⁠ Y'all, this is the sweetest new Be Happy Box from @the_happy_planner 💕 It comes with so many amazing Love-themed goodies, but my favorites have to be the full-size Valentine's Day sticker book and the adorable washi tape set. I'm in love! This box releases on Tuesday, January 18th, but you can check out a full unboxing over on my YouTube channel right now...⁠ Can we talk sticker storage? What are your favorite tips & tricks? My sticker storage has grown A LOT in that past year, so I am constantly rethinking how I can organize my books in an efficient way.⁠
