My 2026 wish list & goals

Setting specific and meaningful goals can truly transform the way we approach the year ahead. For 2026, one of the most exciting ambitions I have is creating a mailing club featuring my own cute designs and a customized wax seal. This goal combines creativity with community-building, allowing me to share unique stationery art with like-minded people. Starting such a club not only boosts my designing skills but also opens new avenues for personal connection and artistic expression. I’m also passionate about developing my own travelers journal—something truly personalized that goes beyond just documenting trips. Having a journal that visually captures the essence of my travels, complete with scrapbook-style pages collected from different states or countries, adds a special, tactile dimension to my memories. This inspires me to explore new places that can provide fresh materials and experiences to enrich my journals. Improving my handwriting is another goal that may seem small but plays a big role in my creative projects. I want to develop a whimsical handwriting style that complements my stationery and journaling work beautifully. Practice and patience are key here, and I find that making this a goal encourages daily improvement and satisfaction. Finally, expanding my fountain pen collection, including models like the Pilot Kaküno, supports all these creative endeavors. Using quality pens enhances my writing and drawing, making the act of creating even more enjoyable. Combining these goals—travel, creativity, improved handwriting, personalized stationery, and quality tools—makes my 2026 plan both diverse and focused. It’s a reminder that creative aspirations benefit greatly from tangible, achievable steps. Whether you aim for similar projects or your own unique goals, embracing this kind of detailed planning can make the upcoming year incredibly fulfilling and inspiring.
