I thought I would try something totally different today (for me anyway)... making my own paper paperclips.  The finished result is definitely a triumph and I will be making more, they are perfect for your planners and journals or as a cute gift.

I have used a variety of different papers that came in this months Lollipop Box. These papers are actually perfect for this craft as they are just the right thickness. (Disclaimer: I received this box as part of my Creative Team role).

I love that moment when you start to work on a new journal. It is however always difficult to know where to start with it and what to put on your first pages. The October kit; 'Once Upon a Time' from the Lollipop Box Club however is PERFECT for the first few pages of a journal as this month it is all about telling your own story. Join me in a bit of journaling for mental health and happiness.

Yay hello everyone, here's my first post for The Lollipop Box Club since I made it on to the creative team. Today I am sharing a junk journal I have made using the gorgeous September Kit. As part of my own Facebook group Kerrymay Makes A Mess, I set a challenge every August to create a junk journal.

Awww only 8 days till it's officially Autumn. I am however already in the Autumn mindset. Today I am sharing my Autumn planner set up and review, showing you what planners I am currently using, what I have ditched and how I am using each planner. 

​For the Bloggers Like Us series this month we are all talking all things Autumn, don't forget to have a read of the other girls fabulous posts at the end.

Hi all, I have finally finished my Creative Journal that I started in October 2017. I know!

​The journal includes a variety of pages in a smash book style / gluebook memory keeping in a cahier sized travelers notebook documenting events, days out and family visits as well as holidays and achievements. I did originally film this flip through before I went on holiday but unfortunately it didn't record... DOH!

For the Bloggers Like Us series this month we are talking all things health, skincare and self care. I have already covered a lot of this already in my Health and Fitness Journal post and in my Self Care in a Bullet Journal post, so I have decided to focus on something very much at the forefront of my mind at the minute: hormonal acne and cystic acne skincare and my skincare routine that I have incorporated in to my bullet journal.

I'm excited to share that for the third year running over in my Facebook Art Journaling group we will be having another junk journal challenge throughout the month of August. This will follow a different format from the last two years throughout the Month of August. We will once again be using an hashtag #kmmamjunkjournal19 on Instagram and we can post progress updates in the group and on other social media platforms.
