Dynamic calendar to free up your time
Reclaim is a bit like a personal assistant. You let it know what tasks you need to do, and how long you (think) you need for it. It sets you up a schedule, and will reshuffle things as needed to help you stay on track.
There are free and premium plans for Reclaim. I started with the free one and now use the $8 per month plan.
Beautifully curated classes to boost creativity
I love Domestika. You’re taught by industry professionals and the sets are always gorgeous.
I’ve purchased classes in amigurumi, kawaii illustration, ceramics, and plush making (to name a few…)
Charms | Acrylic Pins | Plush Pillows | Mouse Pads
Vograce makes tons of customized products and their minimum order quantity (MOQ) is super low.Â
Notepads | Backing Cards | Packaging
I’ve ordered from Solopress since my uni days and I still go back. They print my notepads and all my rounded corner backing cards.
My favorite brushes for Procreate
Jingsketch has a whole line-up of amazing art tools available. My favorite is this collection of Procreate brushes. I use these all the time in my work.
There’s also an All-Access Pass which gives you additional goodies.
