Hey friends!
Happy November!
It’s definitely starting to feel a lot more like the end of the year — we had our first frost, I’m making a million different apple dishes, and Sunday is my favorite day of the week. I’m getting pumped for Thanksgiving this year — I’ve got a plan to debone my entire turkey, and make some amazing brussels sprouts au gratin. This month, with our LENS magazine, we’re diving into all things vintage.
I’m excited to pull out a bunch of my weird old stuff that I’ve got lying around and add it to my daily pages throughout the month. When thinking about vintage stuff — remember that it doesn’t have to be 100 years old to count as vintage. When we talk about classic cars, they only have to be 15 years old to qualify as ‘classic’. So think about some of your own ‘classic’ supplies this month as well (anyone got any October Afternoon paper or Hambly overlays lying around?).

Here’s what you can look forward to this month:
Vintage: This issue of Lens Magazine celebrates the art of autumn. Whether it’s your favorite sights, sounds, or scents — there are so many great stories to tell around the changing of the seasons, the waning daylight hours, and all of our fun fall activities.
Daily Pages Masterclass — Vintage Supplies + Current Trends: This Saturday at Noon ET, we’ll be getting together (as we do each month) for our Daily Pages Masterclass. This month’s topic will be all about using up your classic supplies, vintage ephemera, and mixing them with your favorite new trends and techniques.
New ALP Merch: Coming next week! We’ll send out info on our holiday 2024 merch pre-order. We’ll have t-shirts, sweatshirts, bags, stickers, and more!
