Hello!
My name is Nhi (pronounced nee), and as you can probably glean from my social media handles, I love paper art! That includes bullet journaling, decorating planners, taking artistic notes, making greeting cards, scrapbooking, and creating paper explosion boxes among other things. Naturally, that also means I’m a stationery and washi tape addict. My collection is massive—at least to my friends and family—and I would love to show it to you some time.
You may be wondering how my love for paper-crafts developed. In my childhood, there was a time when my family was impoverished, which inspired me to create my own things instead of buying them. As a result, my love for creating things with my own hands grew. Eventually, when I got older and my family’s conditions improved, I was able to expand my crafting possibilities. My paper-crafting journey has since undergone many changes and adapted to various stages of my life.
Currently, I am a college student aspiring to become a psychologist. I live in a small apartment with my significant other, Isaac, (since 2018) and my 2 adorable shorthair tabby cats while studying psychology, sociology, and education on a full ride scholarship at Grinnell College, one of the best liberal arts schools in the U.S. Student life requires its own creative approach, so I’m currently absorbed in bullet journaling and using it as a way to organize assignments, due dates, and exams.
In the future, when I finish school and acquire the appropriate credentials for counseling, I hope to have a dedicated craft room that’s even more massive than my current crafting units. I see myself still bullet journaling but perhaps focusing more on scrapbooking, card making, and DIY home projects. Isaac and I plan on getting married and having children some day, so I hope to do lots of fun craft projects with them.
Please feel welcomed to join me on my creative journey. I am always delighted to connect with fellow bullet journalists, students, and paper-craft enthusiasts.
Warmly,
Nhi
