August is definitely the time to start prepping for autumn, personally for me the official start is September 1st, so this month is the time to plan ahead to hit the ground running on day 1. im not one to berate others on what and when they celebrate. i loved your journal spreads and that you even set new ringtones!! youre getting aaall the vibes ! lol 👻✨🎃 id love to get more book recommendations from you, i have a hard time searching for books because i enjoy starting a book without reading the summary. on libby i usually search a book id heard of and/or then filter though the genre tags. ✨🖤 also im looking for some cozy crafts to do, for myself and with the kids! do you have any spooky season crafting planned??
@alifeofpoetry5 күн бұрын
I completely agree that August is a good month to prep for the autumn season for when September comes, things seem in order to get into the spirit of such a cozy season! I’m planning on doing more book recs and maybe incorporating them casually into my vlogs. I’m unsure what feels best for viewers, whether doing videos dedicated to just bookies or casually throwing some book recs into my everyday vlogs? Do you have a preference as viewer? Oh and I have a handful of cozy crafts I plan on doing! I already saved a few ideas over on my Pinterest! I’ll share those on my next video! Also for some reason, this season I am feeling the itch to get into embroidery? I used to do that a lot as a kid. My mom would get me tea towels to embroidery and I love the idea of creating pattern patches to embroidery on top of a tea towel, maybe frame it, or even for a top, etc.. i have some spooky pattern embroidery ideas I’m thinking of creating this upcoming fall season. I’ll share more on my next vlog! 👻🫶🏼🕸️

@@alifeofpoetry so i personally like vlogs more than sit down videos buuut if you put recommendations only in vlogs, it might be hard for a viewer to return later and find which video they heard about a book they wanted. so sit down videos may be the best way. and then maybe a short mention of the book recs in some vlogs would be nice too. i’ve been practicing embroidery since this spring, i have a few pre-stenciled fabrics with the different stitching types. it’s actually the best cozy activity to do with an audiobook or on a facetime call!! 🖤✨
