An Essential Oil Journal

Floating around amongst all the blogs that focus or discuss to some extent EOs, is the idea of having a notebook or journal for your EO use and ideas.

Some go all out and they are works of art. Camp Wander (of course) has a post about an example.

For the past few weeks I have used a composition notebook that I picked up on clearance. It is stage one. Here's how I'm doing things.

I use the composition book to write down the ideas and formulations, along with sources, that I have yet to try.

I purchased a hardbound sketch book Monday that I am using for a final version that is more of an archive. Since I love to pull out my colored pencils and art pens, I hope to take time to put in illustrations and doodles along with the information on EO use. To encourage myself to get boring chores done (laundry folding, vacuuming  cleaning the bathrooms), it is a source of bribery to have an art project to work on in the evenings and days off of work.

As I complete pages, I will post them so you can see what I am talking about with this idea.
