You've probably seen it come by a lot, the Bullet Journal. A homemade diary that both organizes your notes and stimulates your creativity. I thought it would be great because it combines two of my hobbies: list-making and typography. Unfortunately, I have the classic doctor's handwriting and I am a born perfectionist. And that combination makes a Bullet Journal not work for me. At least, that's what I thought until I got the GreenBook!
For some time I have had the desire to start a Bullet Journal. This is a homemade notebook in which you keep track of your to-do lists and appointments in a creative and organized way. However, it was not for me, because I have the textbook of a doctor's handwriting and I am a born perfectionist. If I make a mistake, I prefer to tear out the page and start over. Let the GreenBook be the solution for that!
New week, clean slate
Keep your notes and scribbles and easily wipe out as soon as the week is over or if, like me, you go crazy with writing mistakes and misplaced dots. A clean slate is made in no time with this little book! I categorize my notes using handy plan pages that come in a variety of types, including daily, weekly, monthly and yearly planners, to-do lists and grid and line pages. The pages are all available separately and are easy to take in and out of the booklet.
I like the blank pages best, because they really give my creativity free rein! I use these blank pages to create mood pages, such as my monthly goals or ideas for illustrations. The erasable weekly planner and I fill it with my business and personal appointments.
I also use my GreenBook to keep track of my and my son Olle's eating and drinking schedules. Very organized and approachable and this way I can be sure we both don't lack anything 🙂 .
Endless scribbling
I love my GreenBook and can finally keep track of my own Bullet Journal, hooray! I am also very curious to see how this product will develop. For example, I would love to be able to buy a wide range of colored pens so you can really turn your GreenBook into a note-taking party. ? In any case, the GreenBook is a great product that combines sustainability and creativity in a very promising way. I am a fan! Are you?
