Tutorial: How to Quickly Create Custom Callout Blocks in Notion

Step 1: Set Up Custom Icons for Callout Blocks

1. Create a folder on your desktop containing the custom icons or graphics you want to use for your callout blocks in Notion.
2. Choose a specific icon from your graphics folder that you want to use consistently for a particular type of content or section in your Notion workspace. For example, Tasia uses a sun icon for vision-related pages.

Step 2: Create a Callout Block with Custom Icon

1. In Notion, start by creating a callout block. You can use a divider to create a header section for the callout block.
2. Define the custom icon you want to use for this callout block by inserting it at the beginning.
3. Duplicate this callout block by either clicking on the block menu and selecting "Duplicate" or using the shortcut Command + D (Mac) or Control + D (Windows).
4. Repeat the duplication process to create multiple callout blocks with the same custom icon without the need to redefine it each time.

Step 3: Organize Callout Blocks in a Databasement

1. Create a databasement page where you store these custom callout blocks for future use.
2. Arrange the callout blocks in the databasement as needed to have easy access to them when required.
3. Keep extras of the callout blocks in the databasement for quick drag-and-drop placement on new dashboard pages.

Step 4: Customize Dashboard Pages with Callout Blocks

1. On any dashboard page where you want to use the custom callout blocks, drag and drop them from the databasement onto the page.
2. Organize the callout blocks on the dashboard page to visually categorize and structure the content effectively.
3. Utilize the callout blocks with custom icons to keep your workspace visually clean and organized.

Step 5: Utilize Custom Callout Blocks Across Workspace

1. Use the duplicated callout blocks with custom icons to update existing dashboard pages or create new ones throughout your workspace.
2. By having a databasement with pre-made callout blocks, you can easily access and place them wherever needed in your Notion workspace.

By following these steps, you can efficiently create and utilize custom callout blocks with custom icons to visually organize your content in Notion like Tasia does in her workspace.
