September Planner/Journal Set-Up: Academia

For September, I decided to make my journal theme for the month, Academia or Bibliophilia (or something to that effect) where I could focus my design elements and colors around a dark academia or back-to-school-sort-of vibe. I added some natural elements like more sunflowers (carried over from last month) and mushrooms as well as map themed washi tape and a green and brown color scheme reminiscent of library shelves, old books and wool sweaters. I can wish for weather cool enough to wear wool, can’t I?
