A little surprised this wasn't brought up, but this was the first thing I thought when I saw the door drawing: January is actually named for Janus, who was the Roman deity of doorways/gates/passages and the more nebulous things associated with those like beginnings, transitions, and endings.

​@@PlantBasedBride, this could be a theme for some year... The source of the names of each month. 💖🌞🌵😷

🕯️I don’t know why I felt a soft yellow glow from a candle would be the best emoji to connect with your images, but it seemed to work. Again, an amazing set up. Thanks so much for sharing. ❤

Beautiful new year spreads :0) I see architectural transitions: a door to a new year, a window view to the future, stairs to a new place with a street lamp to light the way

Bless you for editing and posting this on Christmas Day. Beautiful set up again. So much detail 🚪🪟 Merry Christmas to you, 🎄your husband, Yoda and Chewie 🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛

Thank you so much! Merry Christmas to you and yours ❤️❤️

Wintry Wandering is what comes to mind. I love the artwork. It’s gorgeous!

Opening doors, climbing up steps, how very Hakate vibes! Love this! I really like the stamped letters going down like stairs! A++ love this spread so much!

🌍 I'd call it cozy old world vibes.

The theme makes me think of Narnia when Thomas the Faun is hanging by the lamppost and that's when Lucy first meets him and the world.

LOVE your quote! Thank you!!! I am very familiar with the concept of "the next right thing" but that is often too abstract to be helpful in moments of overwhelm. Even today, as I'm struggling a bit with organizing some kitchen cabinets, the visual of focusing on the step and not the entire staircase was extremely encouraging and grounding. For a name, maybe "snippets of aesthetic architecture"?

I just love the more simple weeklies that you're trying! I think your rolling weekly has been such a staple on this channel that it truly shocked me to see something different! I am so obsessed with that gorgeous door, this makes me inspired to actually finish my Jan setup haha I would describe this theme as a love letter to architecture 🧱❄

Wow this was so soothing to watch! I would say this theme could be something like sleepy winter town. ❤

Oo yes that’s a great description! 🥰

It kinda gives me old town core feelings. It looks great

I'd say Storybook Village might be a good name for it. That's what all these remind me of.

Love the stones and the door! The details are amazing, I love how you took your time for the steps and the result is stunning

Aw thank you 🥺 I really appreciate that 🥰❤️

🪔🕯Loved your lights in the drabness of the winter gray. Always enjoy your voice and your music choices, and it's so soothing to work "alongside" your videos while I do my monthly setups as well.

Maybe 'Fineline Architecture' as the theme? Such a lovely style, whatever it's called :) My goal for 2023 is a similar vibe for each month, using a limited colour palette and different still life drawings/paintings each month!

It was so satisfying to watch everything get colored in

I feel like all of the items in your theme give you direction or show you the way. 🌟

I've been binge watching your videos recently and loving all of them. Can't wait to plan with you for the whole year! And your nails look super gorgeous. Sending lots of love 💕

I really enjoyed this Jan setup! So simple, but just so elegant 😍 The staircase and quote was my favorite. I am super excited to see how this new weekly layout helps, and if you like it. Seems more compact, but functional. Hope you had an amazing day with family and friends. Cannot wait to see what 2023 brings to your channel. ✨️🖤

I was thinking a walk through Paris but I think just a walk through a town or village would suit the theme quite well 💛

Oh, I love the shading/linework on the stone blocks around the doorway. It has so much dimension with just the ink (the watercolor is gorgeous though! the shades are just right). I was gonna say, this looks like things you see on a walk in January (if you're in the Northern Hemisphere like us, lol) just the colors of the buildings muted by snow, no grass (unless it's dead in the cracks of the sidewalk), and those windows and doors that look like they lead to a much warmer indoors where you'd like to be haha. We can steal a bit from Robert Frost: Taking a Walk on a Winter Day ;) Merry Christmas! Sending scratchies to your very best helpers, Chewie and Yoda!

Oo yes I love that!! So perfect ❤️ merry Christmas to you and yours! The kitties have received many scritches and stockings full of new toys 🥰

That lamppost though! Beautiful work. 🗝

I fully expected Ebenezer Scrooge to throw that window open to make sure he hadn't missed Christmas! Love this art style, and thank you for another very merry Plantmas!

The style of the artwork reminds me of old (end of 19th century, beginning of 20th) architecture drawings. As I have seen, they used ink and watercolor even on the mechanical drawings, not just on 3D sketches. Especially the stairs remind me of that style. The difference is, that those seemed to me as more impressionistic quick sketches with loose lines and larger brushstrokes. (Apparently it is supposed to be easier to draw straight lines quickly than slowly without a ruler.) While your artwork seems more controlled in these areas. They look gorgeous by the way. I always get motivated to do my bujo when I watch your videos.

Those paintings are amazing!! LOVE the micron with watercolours!!

This spread really showcases your illustration skills; lovely results.

The combination of the music, your lovely voice, and the beautiful art you always create made it such a nice calming video to watch today. Thank you for another year of beautiful, inspiring videos! Can't wait to see what new things you come up with next! 🎇

I really enjoyed this Plantmas; thank you for making all these videos! Call your theme "January Evening Street" and it will convey all that lovely moodiness! Happy New Year--may 2023 bring you all good things.

✨🎵🎶☕️ I hope you had a Merry Christmas! I really am in love with your music choice for this video. That paired with the art made me feel like I was traveling to a quiet cafe in the heart of town.

Very Paris in the fall to me. ❤

🧱 I love the muted colours. I used the lamp post and the quote in my January set up. New year always feels like a fresh start, excellent reminder to take it one step at a time. To bad there is no step emoji🤗

I think to myself and tell my students to break it all up into chunks. I know as artists, you sometimes look for ideas, but this video reminded me that Sherlock Holmes door and number is famous, maybe you could call it something like that or look at famous doors. Great video and I started a big To Do list in my journal and I eventually got to a point, where I wanted the tasks separated by topic as well.

Love this theme! It reminds me of the vibe walking through the Old Town of Edinburgh. There are stone staircases winding between many of the buildings on the Royal Mile, with gardens tucked in between. Happy New Year!

Would love to see a video describing the rolling weekly or "descriptions" of each type of setup. I'm new to bullet journal and would like to understand more about the purpose/function of each spread so i know what to chose for mine!

May this years come with many blessings! What a looooovely setup. as always!

Lately, I've been watching other journal chanels besides yours (normaly you are my one and only). This has given me the opportunity to compare... you are The best. The fact of you not being afraid of a little silence here and there makes your videos so relaxing! You just know how to take what we see and raise it with the sounds of your voice, the music and your good vibes. Thank you for sharing your work! Happy holidays! 🎉🏤🎄

A door to new beginnings.

Really like the theme, reminds me of like London Fog or streets of NYC (in the brownstone).

Love and appreciate your work, creativity and art so, so much! Look forward to your videos - they inspire me. Can't wait for your next Plan with Me! 😻

Lovely! I’m thinking medieval town theme!

In love with this theme, the illustrations are amazing. I'd simply name this theme after my favorite Philly neighborhood--"Old City" 🧱

I really like the aesthetic and the feel of this set up for the month-- seems like it's very convenient and consistent, and the look of it is stellar as well.

Thank you so much for your dedication. I love the window and the street lamp. I haven’t finished my yearly pages yet and I have no idea of what theme I would like for January. But alas something will pop up. Have your self happy holidays Merry Christmas and happy New Year. 🦉🐿️🕯️

Merry Christmas and a very happy New Year ❤🎉

soooo pretty! i think they looked already perfect in b/w

This is so gorgeous ! I was such a fan of your dark academia/misty streets in winter/woodstone doors (yes, I know I invented the word woodstone, but it sounds nice) the first time you did it, and I still am now. Thank you so much for posting these videos ! I was so excited for Plantmas and wasn't disappointed. I think we all appreciate the hardwork and sleepless nights that were necessary to make it. Although I do wish you, along with a very merry Christmas, a good rest and many sleep-filled nights ! (If that is a wish people actually make for others...?)

Love this theme, really beautiful

I love the new to do list design!

Beautiful theme. Merry Christmas 🎄

Its currently midnight here in South Africa but your video is making me want to get up and work in my own bujo

I would call the theme a gaslamp Victoriana theme. It isnt necessarily dated but that style in winter always makes me think of the Christmas Carol era 🕯

❤The color really changes the whole look of your sketchy drawings. It completed it for me (was a bit sceptical before 😅 although its your theme and you are doing great on bring your ideas to paper) Also your dark akademia/street theme was in 2022. I think you said 2020. If not I‘m sorry and taking it back 😅. I will continue my January animal tradition (2 out of 3 years and willing to continue).😊 Merry Christmas for all of you who are celebrating.

Hey I am hoping for more Star Trek themes in 2023 so I am going to suggest a Next Gen theme in April for Picard day

Great video! As for the theme, it’s almost architectural. I would love to see an architectural theme if you haven’t done it already!
