What do you use your beautiful notebooks for?

[Bloominglush2024]

I bought some lovely notebooks and I have no idea what to use them for so am looking for ideas and inspiration!

they are very small though - I think half of an A5. Almost the size of small address books people used to have.

I don’t want to just waste them scrawling in them and have been saving them for something nice but it’s been two years and I don’t want them to sit unused!

I was thinking about listing books I’ve read in them, or little recipes maybe. Or I could use them as a stylish to do list.

any thoughts? Help!

I have this same problem.
I like your recipe idea
How about phone numbers in case your mobile phone runs out of battery when out?

Mine are in a box. I get the box out sometimes, look at how lovely they are, think I’ll use them someday and then put the box away 🤦🏻‍♀️😂😂😂

Sitting on my shelf looking too beautiful to write in.

I have one notebook at a time so it gets everything. Work notes, to do lists, appointments, doodles, names of songs, things I need to remember etc. Makes no sense to anyone else but it’s organised chaos in there! 🤦🏼‍♀️😂

I have one of these on my handbag. Great for jotting down stuff, lists, tearing off for someone. I still don't like phone notes.

Each day capture three things you are grateful for. Anything that comes to mind 😊

Instructions for getting all the tech up and running after it crashes.Phone numbers and addresses including insurances,power and water companies' emergency lines and reference numbers and everything else I'd want if I had to make a fast emergency exit from home or hotel. I've had to do this a number of times.

I keep small notebooks for travel with all the info I need.

Bucket lists! A beautiful notebook filled with lists of things you really want to do would be really satisfying use for it - travel lists, home improvements, career goals, local visits, seasonal activities, books to read etc.

I like @TotalOverhaul book of bucket lists idea with all of those different categories.

All my notebooks are nice so that I enjoy using them

Lists, lots of lists. I run my life by lists.
