Watermelon
LOL, this has accidentally turned into two Beyonce related weeks and I swear that wasn't my intention. But as you can see, this week's spread is watermelon themed.
This was my first full kit from Vintage Gypsy Road and I was really looking forward to it, I was scared but very excited because everyone loves ordering from her, they love her stickers and I have ordered a few things from her but never a full kit so I was very much curious to see whether I would like them or not and see how they were.
Also, sorry for going so far into this post before addressing it but I do want to apologize for being gone so long, I want to excitedly tell you guys that I finished my third year of college and I want to say here right now that I am bringing back Saturday posts and never missing a post again, hopefully lol. I do have summer school for the next 5 weeks but I do want to post a lot more and very consistently on here so I am coming back better and strong. Just y'all wait and see! And I am going to try and post more on every post, starting with this one.
Okay so I received my watermelon spread and I planned kind of blindly because I was planning like mid week before this actual week started so I just went with it but I really love how it came out nonetheless. So I started with the week, because I was no longer going to separate a whole box for each class, I put down stickers more for looks and then utilized as best as I could for organization and planning. So Monday-Friday I put down pink blank headers, heart boxes, light green headers, full boxes, dark green headers and then half boxes. My plan was To Do lists for the entire day, full box section as my class section and then the bottom section as what I will call my "health section" where I write down what I eat and what workout I did that day, And then the bottom washi which I absolutely love. Then on Saturday and Sunday, so I messed up and put down the heart list boxes, by accident and so the only way to fix it was to use the middle section as a spot to put down my weekend banner and then half boxes. And then the last section was for full boxes.
My sidebar consist of a full box and then what comes as a sidebar sticker which is a to do list, a weekly list, a hydrate section and a daily habit section.
Now I did my week for the following reasons. So Monday-Thursday (thought it was Wednesday but whatever) I have class as well as things I needed to do during my day and before school ended I talked to a nutritionist and we kind of came up with a plan. So I had class, daily to do's and then my nutritional plan and I thought, what better way to go about this than to not only make it look beautiful but also make it functional so I designated each thing it's own section. And I really tried to utilize as much as the kit as I could so from the little freebie I got, I used the glasses to denote my classes. I used one of the Erin Condren stickers to jot down one of my best friend's birthdays. I used some flags to write down my blogs and then I used one icon which was the running man in my "school" section because on Friday I am going to celebrate with my friend since it's her birthday on Wednesday. So in my health section I put down an additional half box and a clinking glasses icon sticker to mark down the celebration and the running man above that as my workout section.
I absolutely LOVE this week and this spread. VGR's stickers are absolutely beatiful and definitely worth the money in my opinion. I highly recommend buying from her, especially this kit. My only advice would be: order what you use, or figure out what you could use in replacement from otherr things (if you are trying to save money anyways).
I hope you enjoyed this, I hope you are excited about my news and I will see you Thursday with a celebratory post.
Love,
Bee
