Intention Hexagon

@tinyrayofsunshine

After creating and sharing the Intention Wheel (circle tracker) and the Intention Square, I have now finally created the Intention Hexagon. This is something I have been planning on making for a long time ever since I shared the other ones years ago.

Here is the Intention Hexagon with a sticky note on the side with some brainstorming about what to track.

Did I sleep well?
Did I read?
Did I journal?

You can track a few things you want to keep an eye on or want to become more aware about.

You can use it to remind you of the things you want to do.

I developed the circle, square, and hexagon trackers as fun Visual Trackers that couple perfectly with intentionality to make the process more enjoyable. They’re a fun and useful way to visualize progress.

Tracking can be a way to give you concrete data to work with whatever you’re tracking to discover whether you enjoy what you’re tracking or need to reassess some things.

You can track habits, moods, steps, how productive you were, etc.

Do you track anything? If so, what, how, and why?

Are you excited about this fun new shape? You can grab it by heading to the shop. There’s also a bundle available with all 3 intention trackers for you to enjoy. Thank you for your support and appreciation over the years with my intention trackers! ✍️

Rainbow Visit

@tinyrayofsunshine (watch video with rainbow and enjoy the song)

From yesterday. Rainbow came to visit and dance on my notebook and my favorite fountain pen 💛

This Platinum #3776 Chenonceau was a Christmas gift from my sweet partner.

Zero 7 is one of my all-time favorites. I’ve been writing to their music for most of my life. I think their music goes perfectly with this sweet serene scene 😊 Hope this can bring you a moment of relaxation.

28 Days to Improve Your Life Course Announcement

@tinyrayofsunshine

Hi! I created a course called 28 Days to Improve Your Life. It is a journaling experience I created because I noticed that there has been interest for intentional journaling. It is designed to provide guidance and motivation to help you improve your life in an intentional and mindful way.

When I was around 6 years old (not a typo), I was creating daily schedules for myself. Journaling and intentional planning has been something that I have been into my entire life. I’ve always enjoyed helping others and I’m excited to share with you some of the best tools to help you improve your life. I genuinely hope you find it helpful :) Check it out.

Unlocking designs

@tinyrayofsunshine

I decided to “unlock” my previous designs I’ve shared so now you can add anything you’d like underneath these mindful designs!

Each one has 31 petals or shapes to assign as goal progress, habit progress, mark the weather, or simply color in to keep track of the days.

Being “unlocked” means you can add anything you’d like underneath the designs such as a mini calendar, intention for the month, tasks you want to complete this month, write a quote, write an encouraging message to yourself, create more trackers underneath, or anything you’d like! These designs have dot grid on them to blend in perfectly with your notebooks.

This way you can keep enjoying your favorite designs in a flexible way and create whatever you’d like underneath to help support your goals! I hope you like these. They’re kind of like Tiny Ray of Sunshine trading cards - collect them all! 😊 Find them on the shop!

Favorite Flower Monthly Calendars

@tinyrayofsunshine

I recently asked what your favorite flower is on my IG stories and I got so many awesome responses. One that was particularly popular was the Peony! So I decided to draw it and make it into a calendar for this month :) It’s available in both Sunday and Monday start.

I think this is also the first time I’ve drawn a Peony! It was therapeutic getting lost in the drawing of it and building it petal by petal...It’s No.1 of my flower series 💐 Get 21% off your order with the code sun2021 at my shop. You can grab it now via the link in my bio 😊.

Let me know what you think and if you have any requests of anything you’d like to see! Thought I would share something bright and hopeful.

Oh! And it has 31 petals to color in a mood, habit, goal, or anything else you’d like to keep track of 😊

2020 Top Nine

@tinyrayofsunshine

Hindsight was truly 2020. I’ve been waiting exactly a year to say that. I’m certainly looking forward to 2021. I’m hoping it’s better than this year.

It’s always interesting to see the 9 most liked photos of the year. Some birthday love, some journaling, some quotes, some writing, some art, some Bullet Journaling. A little of everything :) I’m especially happy that my tulips and my geometric monthly calendars got some love! Next year, I’m working on some floral calendars. First one is a Peony! Go check it out at @tinyrayofsunshinedesigns 💐 Happy New Year!

How are you?

@tinyrayofsunshine

How are you, truly?

I am snuggled up with one of my cats as we cuddle up for warmth on this rather chilly evening. Considering making a baked good of some kind, perhaps oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. Thinking about all the things that need to get done and my progress so far. How projects keep branching out into more mini projects, and how exciting yet challenging it can all be, especially when you’re optimizing and figuring out better ways to do things. Thinking also about new content I want to create and curious to hear what you’re interested in and what you’d like to see. Let me know in comments below, I’d love to hear from you 😊🍪

Any guesses about this notebook?

@tinyrayofsunshine

Any guesses as to what I’m working on in this notebook currently?

Alternative captions:

1. Just a little hello. Hope your day is going well 😊

2. Considering sanding my desk down a bit to clean off some of the ink and paint splatters from activities. What do you think?

3. How’s your month going so far? What are you looking forward to in the last quarter of the year?

Hah! This format cracked me up 😂 Just a silly little post with some notebooky goodness. Feel free to answer any or all questions or share any random stationery-related thoughts you’re having 🤔📚☀️

Setting up Monthly Log

@tinyrayofsunshine (view video)

Here’s my first IGTV video of me creating a #bulletjournalmonthlylog as inspired by @RyderCarroll.

I like this format a lot and I’m using this particular one to keep track of meals made over the course of the month as a monthly meal calendar, yum 😊!

My pen ran out of ink the middle of this video, maybe you’ll catch when, and I had to switch to another as one does.

I’m also playing around with the audio quality, so let me know what you think about that and the video as a whole, please and thank you 💖!
