SanatiFactory travellers notebook



I have been wanting to order from SanatiFactory for a while now and after a bit of a destash I went for it!
I had my eye on this particular TN although I am 100% going to return for another. I see many more travellers notebooks in my future..!


The travellers notebook itself comes ready to go with inserts - an undated diary, lined and grid inserts, a plastic wallet and cardboard wallet. And a binder clip!
The quality of the leather is lovely, it's nice and floppy but not too floppy..
In total it cost £51.77.

It was incredibly well packaged and the shipping time from Ukraine to the UK only took around 5 days!
Natalia was so helpful and customer service was 5*.
The artist is so talented and I'm absolutely in love with the painting.
I cannot fault SanatiFactory at all, from start to finish the whole process was quick and easy.















This print was one of the ones I had in my GeekGear box, what a match!

World of Wizardry Subscription Box (June 2017)



A quick run through of what was in June's World of Wizardry box.

This months box is heeerree! I love the new design.


 The first thing I saw when I opened the box was the tshirt and it actually made me go "EEEEE!", I absolutely LOVE it!
After folding it back in the box to go in the car I clearly did a terrible job as there is now a massive crease.


ADORABLE PIN ALERT! I'm sooo excited about this. Number 1 in the collection, can't wait to see what we get in future boxes.
I got a classic Hagrid.



Playing cards! Very cool, although I will probably be using these in my planner for decoration.



This is so cute. The car itself is kind of squidgy so no need to worry about it breaking. The only issue I had was putting it on the stand, it kept popping out so I think I'll glue it before I put it on my shelf.


Another lovely jewellery piece. The bolt is quite weighty and feels like really good quality, I'll definitely be wearing this!



OBSESSED with this next item. I was not expecting anything like this but wow, I love it!
I used to wear scarves all the time so I'm excited to add to my little collection. 




Another lovely print.


I'm going to be cutting up the magazine and do some journaling with it!

SparkleBound TN - FantasyDesignsStore


One of my purchases this month was from FantasyDesignsStore on Etsy. I've ordered some stickers a couple of times from the shop but when I saw the newest additions of custom TN's I knew I had to have one!

I went with regular (or standard) size and chose black leather, yellow (Daisy) glitter, black elastic and black thread.
It cost £60 plus £5 and worth every penny!

The craftsmanship is just MAGIC, I'm completely obsessed.
The quality is amazing, the leather has a really lovely feel to it. The TN is nice sturdy but at the same time kind of floppy!

You also get pockets included in the price, a total of 4, which is great as I have a tendency to fill them!

Overall I am over the moon with my purchase and will definitely be ordering again. The problem is deciding on colour scheme!

World of Wizardry Subscription Box (May 2017)


Another month, another box. First of all I was super excited to open this as it felt so much heavier than previous boxes. Also I love the print on this months box!




Roxy was also very happy with the box! (Even though she doesn't look it!)


This t-shirt aaaaaahhhmygod! I LOVE it! Love the design and it's a bit longer than usual so will be perfect for me as I pretty much live in leggings and big t-shirts.


A chocolate frog mold, awesome!
I'm going to see if jelly works with them as well as chocolate. Can't wait to experiment with this.



I think this was the item that made it heavy!
A GeekGear exclusive mug, love the design. It will look excellent on m Potter shelves.


And this lunchbox is adorable! I think I'm going to keep some washi tape and sticky notes in it.
I love the design on this.




Another Harry Potter themed wrist band to add to my collection! This one has all of the words describing a Hufflepuff.


YAAAS! As a stationery lover this is quite possibly one of the best things to find in the box! 




This print .. Beautiful! I'm really excited about this because I ordered a TN this afternoon before seeing this, that will have this image on it! It was fate.




This is this months magazine, love the design on this. I think I might cut it up and do some crafting with it.

Hobbycraft planner review/set up


I'm really excited to see that we are finally getting some rather cool looking planners in Hobbycraft! 
I knew I had to get one, especially after seeing GeraldineJayne show hers off on YouTube.

There are a few different patterns as well as styles of planner including some that are ringed.
This is the one I chose, clicky link >> PLANNER

They cost £18 which I think is quite reasonable. They're nice quality and are also undated so you can easily hop in and out of it, which is what I have a tendency of doing!


I made a planner band for it to make a house for my pen!


This planner has 2 pockets. One at the front and one at the back. I'm just keeping some of my most used stickers in the front pocket for now.


Before each month there is a page you can fill in with to-dos', goals, notes and it has a box 'at a glance' where you could write key memories or moments that happened that month.


The monthly pages start on a Sunday, so I just covered the days with some washi tape and wrote the week out starting on Monday with a permanent marker.


The weekly pages are nice and big so lots of space to write or even doodle.


This was my first week, using stickers from BeautifulPlanning.


This is my current week using stickers from PlumpPlanner.


They're about A5 size, this is a photo of it against my A5 fluro pink filofax.





Overall I am super happy with my new planner!
