After yesterday’s disgusting events on the Capitol, I’m trying my best to get past the feelings I was left with. Never in my life did I ever think I’d see a sitting president’s supporters storm the Capitol with very little resistance; certainly compared to the troops set out for the peaceful BLM protests last summer. I’m left angry, dismayed, stunned and yet not surprised it happened at all. How sad is that?!
To get my head in a better place, I grabbed my new planners. They make me happy. My dad was kind enough to give me money for my birthday back in October so that I could order custom Van Der Spek planners as his gift to me. Such a treat! I’ve never had a VDS planner before and had been fawning over them for quite a while. They are gorgeous. I was able to get them both in waitlisted leather colors and customized to my specifications. They are the most gorgeous hues of pink and gray. Neutral enough for any accessories and enough color to stand on their own. Have a look…
The photo doesn’t do them justice. The leather is buttery and just gorgeous. The stitching on the pen case matches the leather on the Junior. I added charms from @judyplanslife and they are such perfect additions, though I’m not sure about their attaching points yet… they are temporary and, at the moment, being held in place with acetate sheets. Cleary I have a commitment issue; or just extreme indecisiveness. I’m thinking the latter. Either way I’m loving my new beauties!
