Year 2021 had been ordering a lot of craft supplies for resin and some tools which can be used for other craft. Heat gun and engraving drill.

2022 Planner - 7

After filling in the holidays, discovered that 2022 year's May is very fun. There are 3 holidays and 2 family celebrations.

2022 Planner - 6

362nd day of 2021.

Got it printed on 150gsm paper, and stitch it up.

Planner - Flap & Bind

361st day of 2021.

The previous one do not fit well and torn off at corners, so remake a new one.

Planner - Envelope 3

360th day of 2021.

Made the final version with a window flap.

Resin - Glitter 5

359th day of 2021.

I have also bought a bezel frame to try my hands on making some pendant to accompany my leather planner. I seemed to put too many golden powder.

Mica are so hard to clean off surface. DX

Resin - Glitter 4

358th day of 2021.

I really like the powder mica and leaf flecks. 

Resin - Glitter 3

357th day of 2021.

So far the testing I have done, not really sure whether it is due to faulty UV resin, but it seemed to be harder to dry for thick layer, even after put under UV light for 15 minutes. Resin layer is just 3~4mm.

Resin - Glitter 2

356th day of 2021.

The edges of resin is difficult to dry nicely.

Resin - Glitter 1

355th day of 2021.

Had been buying resin supplies since and tested the difference of UV resin and epoxy resin. I have bad experience with UV resin on the second batch, suspecting mainly due to old stock.

Planner - Envelope 2

354th day of 2021.

Use some cheap craft paper and test out the different way of flap over.

Planner - Envelope 1

353rd day of 2021.

Was planning to re-do the accessories card for the leather cover planner. Last time did a eyelet closure, this round figure to use a simple fold tuck in.

Inkscape

352nd day of 2021.

I am not really sure what to make out of this. This is a vector based programme, doesn't speak to me intuitively.

2022 Planner - 5

351st day of 2021.

Done a page for Cover, personal info and topic based log with year divided in quarters/season then month.

Chart Type 2

350th day of 2021.

Circular ones are harder to achieved in a grid layout. It is not easy to provide a template for circle based diagram.

Chart Type 1

349th day of 2021.

Figuring out what other charts or diagram that can be use to explore other planner formats.

Paint 3D 2

348th day of 2021.

Pretty basic painting tools, control still fine.

It has some amazing 3D support and AR support, which is fun.

Not really up to what I wish in terms of painting.

Paint 3D 1

347th day of 2021.

This had been in my surface pro for a while, first time trying it out to see whether it can serve to be art journal.

Planner Layout - 08

346th day of 2021.

Even for a minimalist cover design, there are still quite a few layout to look at.

345th day of 2021.

Completed for 12 months. Some minor adjustment on what to do with the left over spaces.

344th day of 2021.

Monthly spread. Spent quite a while to adjust the grey scale of lines.

2022 Planner - 2

343rd day of 2021.

Yearly Calendar.

The grid numbers could not divide nicely with 3 column spread. Allocated a line of checkbox for additional remarks.

2022 Planner - 1

342nd day of 2021.

I guess this may be exaggerating to draw simple grids and boxes with AutoCAD? XD

This is a spread for year overview.

Planner Layout - 07

341st day of 2021.

Famous traveler notebook also have planner inserts.

The layout are quite similar to Hobonichi's.

Planner Layout - 06

340th day of 2021.

A very unique layout designed by a Chinese Planner blogger.

Shared quite a few ways to use it, very versatile layout.

Planner Layout - 05

339th day of 2021.

Midori's minimalist layout design is very clean. 

Planner Layout - 04

338th day of 2021.

Kokuyo had similar design carried over to day pages.

If I could not even utilize monthly pages, weekly and daily pages would be too much.

Planner Layout - 03

337th day of 2021.

I like the line chart and tracker of this layout.

Planner Layout - 02

336th day of 2021.

I love Kokuyo website for explaining their tiny details.

Planner Layout - 01

335th day of 2021.

Have been preparing planner for 2 years, feeling not using it as planned.

The ones that I use is actually the tracker. So went out to see how other planner plan their layout.

Again, Japan have very distinct layout design which is very interesting.

Started off with Hobonichi.
