Hi sweet friends—today I’m setting up my journal for 2026, and I wanted this to feel like a cozy, chatty journal-with-me moment at home. I’m using my A5 Tiefossi “Embrace the Light” dot grid notebook in beige, and I walk you through the exact plan for how I’m starting the year: gathering supplies, choosing a soft neutral palette, and building pages that feel calming (but still functional). If you love stationery, gentle planning, and a little creative reset energy, this one is very that. I start with a name page and a little letter to future me (one of my favorite ways to set the tone), then move into a simple cover page, goals, and an “ins and outs” spread to help me be intentional about what I’m bringing into 2026. I also add moon trackers because they’re pretty and grounding, and I finish with a full flip-through so you can see how everything comes together. This setup is meant to be flexible—something I can actually keep up with—while still feeling special every time I open it.
