In 2016, I bought very little stationery and I did this buy just using up the stuff already in my stash. I made a few impulse purchases but nothing major and when I think about how little I bought over the last twelve months, I actually feel content. There's something very fulfilling about using up the stuff you already have and I probably have enough notebooks and ink to last me another good year or two (ok, maybe more).
A few of the purchases I made in 2016.
My goal for this year is to not make any new stationery purchases (aside from a 2018 planner towards the end of the year) and with the way things have gone, I think it should be quite easy for me to stick to this.
Do you have any stationery goals for this year?
Mine are the same as yours. I want my only purchase to be a planner for next year. I have a tendency to look for 'perfect' stationery. I need to actually take out all the notebooks in my stash and find a way to make them work even if they aren't 'perfect'.
