template rules, journal tips, italics, 1st group coaching + notion magazine 💫

Hi hi! 

It's Frances from The Notion Bar back again sprinkling your inbox with musings on Notion & life

---

If this week was a GIF, it would be:

Lots of exciting things on the horizon that i can't wait to share with you all! The next few months will be hectic but worth it 💫

Mini-Journal Update:

A fairly creative month!

Here's what's on my mind:

A lot of people forget that Notion templates are MADE to be customised. I have a Facebook Group for my journal template and I love to see how people are making it their own

Here are some tips for customising templates

1. Change the header & icons

2. Change the layout so the order of the content makes sense to how you will use it

3. Change the colour scheme of the blocks

4. Decorate with images/gifs

5. Delete any content which isn't useful

6. Add content that is useful to you

7. If there are databases, add/remove properties based o what you will need

Some other cool things!

New Template

I'm a *huge* @SammHenshaw fan & his album Untidy Soul was released on Friday!

I flipped his interview with @NotionMagazine into a beautiful layout you can use for your own projects 💫

Tips for building a journal in Notion!

Notion Tip

Italics are cool?!

the notion bar | your notion bae ✨slow replies✨ @thenotionbar

🧨 the italic titles were an accident that i didn't expect to go so hard?!

What I've been watching:

No, but Outer Banks was unhinged and I loved every second of it?!

So easy to track in my journal 😍 Do we have any shows in common? What should I watch next? Reply to this email!

Listen

• Bliss - Amber Mark - a self-love anthem 💫

• Jyoty's Boiler Room Set - we stan a badass female DJ!

🧨 Trend: I keep seeing @NotionHQ EVERYWHERE on vids that aren't even about Notion/nor do they even mention anything about Notion
