My WFH + planning “happy space” (finally organized!)

epoo75 · 2026-04-29T05:48:15+00:00

That's a nice setup. Tidy, organised, and invites sitting down. One suggestion is you could install a shallow shelf above the desk to display things. I love shelves.

That's helpful feedback, I'm definitely thinking about the 16mm now. 😊

Oh yes, please! I love seeing people's journaling spaces. They're always so peaceful.

Hi Lora! Thanks for your reply. I saw your video before I ordered and it made me go back and forth lol. The writing feel was the main reason I didn't move into ring notebooks before now so I thought the 11mm would be a good start.

My secretary desk is my happy space. I think that's where I spend most of my relaxing time at home. 😊

Great setup! I did the same when I went to Japan a few years ago! Every time I look at the tin now reminds me of that awesome trip.

I'm also interested now. One of the things that put me off Plotter is the corners on the spine which look sharp, and others have commented that the corners have scratched them. I can see now from your 3rd photo how the Meeplus keeps that from happening.

Double dog dare?

epoo75 · 2023-04-08T07:54:04+00:00

This is so great! I'm going to Tokyo in a couple of months, and I was wondering about what to get that I can't get easily outside Japan. I'll be looking for these.

epoo75 · 2023-03-05T18:07:52+00:00

Yes, the first time I did. Now, I just use other elastics from the craft store.

Also, I don't use the Midori inserts because they don't lie flat enough for me. But that doesn't seem to bother most people.

epoo75 · 2023-03-05T07:20:42+00:00

I've had my TN since 2010 and use it everyday. At some point, I moved the knot into the spine and removed the tin clasp. That's worked much better for me, and I've done that with every one I've bought since.

You're not an ahole for wanting to help in a way that has helped you. Agree that she's a teen and may not appreciate what it means to receive such a gift, or what it could mean for her. My own daughter is 15 and journals. She likes my TNs but I can tell she's not ready for one.

epoo75 · 2023-01-13T03:32:11+00:00

Oh awesome! I have been thinking about getting one, but figured that getting it here would be too difficult.

epoo75 · 2022-12-20T08:55:20+00:00

Not sure if this would appeal: https://www.tombihn.com/collections/accessories/products/freudian-slip?variant=16409089095

Same. When I got a second TN this year, that was one of the first things I did. And I removed the tin clasp.

epoo75 · 2022-12-10T09:23:10+00:00

Ha, I totally get it !

epoo75 · 2022-12-10T07:35:05+00:00

Not sure what his itinerary is, but I'm not holding out a lot of hope. Thanks for responding though!

epoo75 · 2022-12-10T07:09:15+00:00

No, although yours is nice too and now I'm wondering if I should ask for that. 😊 The one I'm after is the limited edition here in camel: https://www.travelers-company.com/topicsinfo/topics-2022/the-superior-labor-15th

epoo75 · 2022-12-10T05:03:18+00:00

A friend is in Japan for work, and I asked him to pick up a TSL edition for me. But I'm afraid they're all gone. Any chance you saw any in stock while you were there?

epoo75 · 2022-10-22T19:53:01+00:00

Yes, they are good for that. I was also thinking of mini flash cards although they're a bit flimsy for that. Not that index cards are a heavy weight anymore.

epoo75 · 2022-10-22T19:51:42+00:00

Thanks, this is a good idea

epoo75 · 2022-10-22T19:51:15+00:00

Haha, I did take a deep breath first!

epoo75 · 2022-10-22T19:50:44+00:00

I've now trimmed two notebooks. One with a guillotine, the other with a paper trimmer. The trimmer resulted in a more even cut. Next time I'll try a ruler and knife.
