Dot Journals 📓
Dot or Bullet Journals that meet my particular criteria. I journal daily and am making new layouts all the time. For this reason I like journals that have lots of pages so I don't run out, lay flat, and have thicker pages (GSM) so there is no bleedin...
Note GSM is only 100, but if you are just starting out this could be an option. This exact journal was my first one and I still have it.
