I’m keeping an Unraveling Journal this year! I h I’m keeping an Unraveling Journal this year! 

I haven’t successfully kept one since 2023 and I really do miss my unfurling process. I’m also going to try to document my One Little Word journey in here. 

I’ve wanted to make another @amitybloom style journal for such a long time and was studying Nazy’s beautiful layered journals to see if I could make one of my own. It’s almost like she knew what I was up to because at the ending of the year, she offered her Hanky Diaries course, where she teaches the exact layered covers I had been studying! Signing up for her class gave me that push to finally make mine. The timing was perfect!

So this journal is my take and I’ve got a full walkthrough of it up on my YouTube channel. The cover is so tactile with lots of layers of fabric and paper. I absolutely love it. It just so me. 

Highly recommend Nazy’s class, as well as her Artist in Bloom class, as I drew inspiration from that one too. xx
I’m behind on sharing my Joy Journal spreads in my I’m behind on sharing my Joy Journal spreads in my Hobonichi Weeks. This was the week right before Christmas. xx
I’ve got a new YouTube video up, going through my I’ve got a new YouTube video up, going through my 2025 journals and sharing what’s lined up for 2026. I’ll be using lots of the same types of journals, just the next versions of them. These are my main journals:

✩ Pocket Filofax - my monthly/weekly planner
✩ Hobonichi Weeks - my joy journal
✩ A6 Hobonichi Hon - my soulscape journal
✩ A6 handmade fabric journal - my lovely journal (art/junk/scrapbook memory keep hybrid)
✩ B6-ish handmade journal - my unraveling journal (and OLW)

Though, now that I have this video up, I’m thinking about adding at least one other journal—a small art journal. So, I might have to film an update lol. But I hope you enjoy if you watch. 

What’s in your lineup? xx
Another week, another spread in my Joy Journal. I Another week, another spread in my Joy Journal. I got to go to another Ben Barnes show, my second one this year! xx

Gosh! This is my 12th Unravel Your Year workbook!! Gosh! This is my 12th Unravel Your Year workbook!!

@susannahconway, I know you don't know, but I found your blog back in early 2013 while I was Googling "Why is the measure of love loss?" My dad had just passed away, and I was a recent college graduate with absolutely no direction—the grief just consumed me. I had read Jeanette Winterson's Written on the Body in my last semester, and that first line just kept repeating in my head.

Why IS the measure of love loss?—I wanted to understand what I was feeling and who I was in that moment because I felt so lost.

Gosh, I pored over your words and photographs! I was captivated by your unraveling. I bought your book, filled out my first UYY workbook that year, and chose a word for my year for the very first time. I even took your very last session of Unraveling in 2015!

Your end of the year workbooks were my favorite, though. They've become a ritual I turn to year after year. I collect all of my journals I filled for the year, put on my journaling playlist, spread out on my sofa, and reflect over my words and experiences. I then fill out the first half of the UYY workbook. I pause and go through Find Your Word next, which helps me flesh out my word and theme for my year, before I continue on to unravel the year ahead.

I LOVE this process. 

Thank you for sharing your story and for always offering these!

I didn't mean to write so much, but 12th! I've unraveled and grown so much since then. (and I probably sound like a broken record, always sharing these workbooks, lol, but they're so good!)

Happy Solstice, loves. xx
