Spend time with your diary | iHannas Blog

It is good to spend time with your diary, especially if it's new to you or you've not been writing for a while. To feel close to your journal, like a really good friend, you need to spend time with it. If you, like me, have not written for a while it's more important than

A Tiny Art Journal Project just for fun | iHannas Blog

While sorting through a few folders of magazine clippings (meant to be collage fodder for art journaling) I found some very small ads for stamps that I cut out, maybe two years ago or so. They show black and white illustrations of what those stamps would look like stamped out. At the time I thought

The rebellious act of being creative

When I am feeling lost at sea, like I have no anchor to hold on to, I sometimes loose my connection to my creative work, to the notebooks or journals I am (supposedly) currently working in. This makes me feel like I've lost connection to who I am as a person too. A bit of a restart or refresh doesn't always help in the long run, but in the moment it offers a kind of relief that I crave.

Art journal prompt: Add your Big Heart to the page

This week I decided to go back to my love of hearts and paint a big, pink heart in my altered art journal. A big heart filled with colors. It is my way of adding myself & my heart into my new art journal. A heart is such a beautiful symbol of all that really matters in the end. Love. Compassion.

50 craft projects to tackle this year

How about 50 craft projects to tackle this year? Yes, we can at least get started on a list, right? I decided to compile a list of 50 creative projects that I want to start or work on (but preferably of course: actually finish) this year. In writing the list I was considering what craft & art materials I own already, what work in progress projects I have stored away, my ambitions, and my general longing for encouraging myself to…

This is Not the End | Collage week 52 2025 - iHannas Blog
