Hello Planning Mashers!

It's time to set up my brand new Bullet Journal and I'm so excited!

This post may contain affiliate links. They will be of no extra expense for you, but I receive a small commission. Please see my Disclosure for more details. Thank you for supporting Masha Plans!

It's been a very long time since I had to set up a new journal! I started my current BuJo in June 2019 and it lasted me all the way until November 2020.

I'm feeling sad moving to a new notebook after all my current journal was with me during some amazing and very hard times.

I got a dreamy job, we moved to a new country, I started working on Masha Plans full time and the COVID-19 hit, and I was stuck in the USA for 3 months, away from my husband.

A great thing about Bullet Journaling is that all these moments won't be lost in time like tears in the rain, they will stay forever remembered in my journal.

Well, now It's time to move on and start a new adventure! And I'm personally very excited about it since I will be trying so so many new things this year!

Oh and of course there is a Plan With Me video at the end of the post, so be sure to scroll down for that.

Supplies

First of all, I have a big announcement - I finally decided to say goodbye to my Nuuna journal and use an Archer and Olive notebook as my main BuJo.

I'm really worried about it since it's so different. But also excited, with 160 GSM paper, I'll be able to do so much more in my journal!

The breaking point for me to switch was when I got a white rainbow journal, which is the most beautiful notebook I've ever seen. I just had to start using it!

Speaking of Archer and Olive, if you ever decide to get some of their goodies (like maybe acrylograph pens or ... a subscription box!!) be sure to use my code MASHA10 to get 10% off your order.

All the other supplies I used for my setup are very me, these are my go-to: Sakura Pigma Micron Fineliners, Pitt Artist Pens, and of course Zebra Mildliner Highlighters.

Usually, I go pretty neutral with my setups, keeping them black and white. But this time I decided to go crazy.

Still now sure I love it, but we'll see how I feel when it's time to migrate again.

Planning The Setup

Since it's been a while for me to set up a brand new Bullet Journal I decided to follow my own advice on How To Migrate To A New Bullet Journal and plan things out.

First came the pages I decided to keep, then some new pages I wanted to try.

I love trying out new pages in my yearly setups, this is how I ended up with awesome spreads like a year in photos and about me pages, which I'm absolutely keeping for all my next setups.

Not all extra pages work but it's worth trying anyway. How will you make your journal better if you keep only what you already used before?!

Afterward, I added some notes on what are some design ideas I have, how I want to change up the style a little bit, or what I have to add to the pages I chose to have.

Finally, I created a few outlines of my Bullet Journal to plan out the pages - where I want them to be, in which order, and so on.

This really helped me during my setup, it made sure that I didn't forget anything and it's all organized logically as I wanted.

It helped me so much that I actually created a printable version so you can print it out and plan your pages. Since it's US Letter size, you might also have enough space to sketch the decoration ideas there as well.

The printable is available in our Resources Vault, so head there to download it.

Key and Name

Usually, I don't really add my name to the journal, and I don't really need a key since I already know all my signifiers.

But there is space there so I thought I might also just use it, especially if I decide to add a new signifier during the year - who knows what can happen!

So with the key, you kind of can see the vibe I was going for. As I mentioned before, my yearly pages are usually pretty monochrome and minimal, so they don't really stand out.

This year I decided to go bold and add some lines and shapes to my pages. And then I thought - why not make them colorful and now just black and white? And this is how the madness started and I decided to just roll with it.

I'm not loving it, but honestly, it might be because it's very different, so I'm giving myself some time to fall in love with the colorful beginning of a journal.

Don't know if you can see it here, but I actually used an Archer and Olive notepad to create the key and attached it to the journal with my Tombow adhesive. I need some kind of grid otherwise all my letters would've been all over the place.

And with the name I didn't do anything special, just added some washi tape.

Word Of The Year

I love this practice because it helps you to create the right mindset for whatever you want to achieve in the upcoming year.

Be sure to check my post Why You Need A Person Word Of The Year And How To Choose One if you want to learn more about it.

For 2021 my word is "persist". There will be a lot of challenges that I know of, and probably many more unpredictable ones. But this is another year I'll be moving closer to my dream so the word "persist" is perfect.

Cover Page

Yeah, it took a few pages before I actually got to the cover of my journal, but here it is, finally!

As you can see, I went really really crazy with all the lines and colors. But the more I look at it the more I like it, especially how the black of the numbers stands out.

Future Log

I've been using the same format for my future log for the longest time, so this year I decided to change it up a little bit.

This time, the future log is two pages with a year at a glance on one and a list of important days on the other.

One thing that I forgot to do and actually did it now that I remember is adding a washi tape on the edge of the right page.

That way, I can always easily find my future log, which I do consult a lot, to be honest. And on the other side, I have a grid guide which is also something very useful.

Grid Guide

Grid guide if your cheat sheet of how to divide your Bullet Journal pages equally.

Let's say you have to divide your page into four. You could spend time calculating how to do it evenly, or you can simply look back at your grid guide and have all this information ready for you.

You can create a grid guide in your new journal, or you can get a grid guide cheat sheet stencil, that will help you to easily divide any notebook!

This is a super helpful tool which so far is on my dream list, but I'll definitely get one as soon as I can.

My Favorite Things

2020 has been a very very hard year for us all and I could definitely use some pick me up. That's why I decided to create this spread.

This is a list of my favorite things, things that make me happy, make me smile, allow me to take a little happy break.

As the year goes, I'll be looking back at this spread every time I'm having a hard time and allow myself to watch my favorite movie, or have my favorite snack.

Goals

Here it's all pretty clear, I'll just be writing down the board for 2021 in four areas - health, Masha Plans, personal development, and a secretive little area called "dream".

For me, this spread is not a must achieve kind of thing though. As much as I want to get all my plans completed, I understand that as the year goes by, my goals might change, or my circumstances might make it impossible to reach some goals at that time.

So goals spread is the list of things to achieve, but I'm flexible with that and I allow myself to adjust to the changing circumstances about me.

For more on how to set up goals check my post How To Set and Achieve Goals In Your Bullet Journal.

Intentions

Starting a new life in a new country hasn't been easy and I was so concentrated on making Masha Plans work and building a business that I realized now I spent very little time on myself and my growth.

In some ways, I even digressed from the way I was before.

So this spread is more on how I want to change as a person vs things I want to achieve I had in my goals spread.

About Me Page

This is when I really missed my larger sized Nuuna. I had so much information to put on this page that there was no space for doodles!

This is actually something I started in my last journal and I'm really loving it.

The idea is I create an about me spread right now with the way I am now, and once the journal is over, I'll be creating another about me page of me how I will be then.

It's kind of a fun way to see how you've been doing and how far you came.

A Photo A Month

Pictures can tell such wonderful stories, and I really loved seeing how the story was unfolding in my last journal. So of course I had to keep this spread for 2021 as well.

It will also be a great excuse to first - take more pictures and secondly - to use my HP SProcket printer more.

I decided not to create any outlines because I never know if the photo will be horizontal or vertical. I'll just add them as they are and add a black outline to make them stand out.

Thankfully Archer and Olive journals have 160 GSM paper so they can stand through such abuse, unlike my poor old Nuuna.

Also, I expect this spread to only last me for 6 months, but I also think the entire journal will only last me for half a year, so it works out.

Vision Board

Of course with the new year and the new journal I had to create a new vision board. But it's quite a lot of work and thinking through, so I decided I'll set one up separately when I have more time.

Honestly, I completely forgot how much time it actually takes to create a full-on new Bullet Journal setup, I got pretty tired by the end of the process.

Income

I usually do my finances digitally, but I thought I might try doing it in my journal as well. After all, writing it down in a journal is what works best for me.

This is just a spread with my income since I have a lot of income streams and it might get confusing to figure out what's actually the final sum for it.

There are some empty graphs there for a few new income streams I'm working on. Now that I look at it thought, I realize that one of them should probably say total....

Well, it will all be fixed in post-production!

Savings

For my big 2021 plans, I need a big savings account, so of course, my Bullet Journal comes to the rescue.

It's still empty, because well I'll need to sit down do all my calculations and see what my monthly savings goals should be.

But it has plenty of space for each month to add whatever sum it has to be.

It's the first time I'm using my journal for bug financial plans so I'm still figuring things out.

Quote Page

Finally, I wanted to finish up my yearly setup with a little motivational quote.

I love creating those and honestly, I need all the motivation I can get.

This quote fits perfectly since it really speaks to me. No matter how hard it might seem to achieve your dreams, or how comfortable and safe it is now - don't stop dreaming and fighting for your goals!

If you want to create something like that in your journal, check my post How To Create Beautiful Quote Pages In Your Bullet Journal, it's really very simple and super fun.

Plan With Me

And here it is! My Plan With Me video took me a day and a half to film and about the same time to edit.

So please do take a look and give it a thumbs up!

Have you started your 2021 setup yet?

Hope this post was interesting if you find it so, please share! If you enjoy my content and want to show your appreciation, please consider supporting me with a cup of coffee.

And remember: Keep Bullet Journaling and Don't Be A Blob.

Hi loves! It's Kate from @journalwithkate and I'm back with some inspiration for your 2021 bullet journal setup! 2021 is just around the corner! Around this time people start to think about planning for the new year. Have you gotten yourself your 2021 bujo yet? My pick is the A5 Moon Flowers Dot Grid Journal. I can't get over how beautiful this journal is! The color really matches my vibe! Click on this link or use code to save money on your order!

If you're new to bullet journaling, I've got you covered! In this blog we're going to cover a lot of yearly spread ideas. Read until the end, I've got a useful freebie for ya!

Bullet journaling isn't really a supply heavy hobby. All you really need is a good bullet journal and a pen.

Back in the days, when I started my bullet journal journey, I used to look up examples of yearly spreads on Pinterest and I would end up with so many yearly spreads: from a year at a glance to series trackers. Over the years I found which spreads work best for me. Nowadays I create a handful of spreads for my yearly setup. Let me show you some examples.
Title page
Although it's not a functional spread, I like to start my bullet journal by creating a big title page to mark the beginning of a new year.

Ready for some inspo on how to setup a 2021 title page? Watch this video and learn how to set up the title page in minutes!

I set this easy peasy spread up within 5 minutes! And I absolutely love how the layering effect turned out. You can download this free printable as well as a 2021 year at a glance calendar down below. I printed it on vellum (transparent paper) to be able to create a layering effect.

At this point I know which symbols I use un my bullet journal and what they mean, but I feel like my bullet journal isn't complete without a key spread. And I absolutely love creating this spread.

According to Ryder Carroll, the inventor of the bullet journal system, there are symbols he uses consistently on his bullet journal pages. If you haven't used these symbols before, having a key on hand is really helpful.

A bullet journal key or legend is simply a handy reference guide that you create to remind you what colors, letters, or symbols you use in your bullet journal to signify various tasks.
Year at a glance
One of the very first spreads people put in their bullet journal is the year at a glance. I find that writing out all the calendars is so calming! You either love it or hate it. A way to make it easy is to print a calendar and stick it in your bullet journal. Another fun way is using calendar stickers.

Future log
The future log is a great reference guide for planning out your entire year. They are so useful to marking holidays, birthdays, and other important dates. Future logs are a must have in your yearly setup. They make planning easier and are a fantastic reference when creating your monthly and weekly spreads.

Goal setting
Write down goals you have and a plan for getting there with mini deadlines.
Reading log
Keep record of the books you read, when you read them, favorite quotes, and your thoughts/ rating.

More trackers: workout & period
There are so much more trackers you can add in your yearly setup. Some examples are:

Movies/ TV shows/ Podcast I need to watch

Skincare tracker

Healthy habit tracker

Mood tracker

Sleep log

Birthday tracker

Period tracker

Which ones would work best for you?
Social media ideas/ stats
When growing your online presence, having a place to track your own growth and dump ideas can be helpful. Remember not to get obsessed with the numbers though. It's more about sharing what you're passionate about.
About me
While you're busy setting up functional yearly spreads, add in some fun 'about me' spreads. These are so much fun looking back at after a couple of years.

I've showed you a handful of yearly spread ideas. Remember, you don't have to add all the fancy yearly spread out there. Just pick the ones that are useful to you. I hope you find this blogpost helpful and you'll start setting up your 2021 yearly spreads! I'd love to see what you create, so tag me (@journalwithkate) and @archerandolive on Instagram.

Good luck and have fun!

Ready to grab the best list of bullet journal page ideas?

Today you're going to see amazing bullet journal inspiration that'll help you start your first bullet journal, and finally get organized and stay organized in your personal and professional life as well.

So if you're wondering:

what you should include in your bullet journal

what bujo pages are the basic ones

and looking for bullet journal page ideas for:

Then you'll love this ultimate list.

After reading a bunch of articles about bullet journaling and finding all awesome bullet journal page ideas, you're so ready to organize your entire life using this amazing system.

But wait...

Undoubtedly, you ask yourself what you should include in your bullet journal and what the best bullet journal is.

Generally, it can be only one answer to these questions.

So, the best bullet journal is the one that works for you.

Maybe it's not what you expected to hear from bullet journal bloggers but trusts me- the most common beginners' mistake is trying to copy others' bullet journal pages and fit their lives.

In other words, you can read my essential guide to starting a bullet journal for beginners or watch many of the "plan with me" videos on YouTube but at the end of the day what works for me won't necessarily work for you.

However, there is nothing wrong with trying out many bullet journal layout ideas. In fact, it allows you to find your style and suit your diy planner to your needs.

For that reason, today I share with you plenty of bullet journal page ideas you may want to test and maybe include in your planner notebook.

Firstly, the beauty of bullet journaling is in its full customization and personalization.

While your main goals are to organize your thoughts, tasks, and projects and increase productivity, there are a couple of bullet journal spreads that are kind of crucial to make it work.

Firstly, the bullet journal key is the very first page you should create in your bullet journal notebook to tidy your tasks with ease. Moreover, it helps you to keep track of every stage of the project.

Also, feel free to choose your very own bullet journal symbol ideas. At the same time, don't overthink it and just create the code you're able to crack within a few seconds.

Last update on 2021-02-09 / Affiliate links / Images from Amazon Product Advertising API

Another most underestimated page is a bullet journal index.

Firstly, your notebook is pretty much empty. You may think if you need to create an index in the first place.

In fact, I thought exactly the same. Imagine how surprised I was when I woke up one day and I couldn't find anything in my bujo. Indeed, after several weeks, I filled out over 100 pages without indexing them. It was a nightmare.

So if you need to have a guide, check out my blog post on how to get the journal indexed.

Altogether, it's good to start with the bullet journal basics before creating fancier (and definitely funnier) pages.

However, you don't have to number notebooks' pages all by yourself. Moreover, some bullet journal notebooks come with a premade bujo key and index. For example, one of my favorite bullet journal notebooks has designed a designated place to put your customized symbols, index, and even color-coding.

Certainly, one of the small downsides of bullet journaling is a lack of a calendar.

Indeed, I admit, creating a year at a glance page is my least favorite part of the bullet journal setup.

However, a future log is a page you'll definitely need.

Firstly, I set it for all year and it took me a lot of time. But I discovered that I filled my notebook within 4-6 months. Therefore now I create a future log only for a maximum of a half year.

Alternatively, if you're looking for some other bujo tips and tricks, please find below the ultimate guide on how to plan ahead with a future log.

Clearly, planning the entire month ahead is one of my favorite productivity hacks. Having monthly goals, to-do lists, projects or events gathered in one place makes your life so much easier. Only with one short glimpse, you're able to control many (if not all) aspects of your schedule.

If you're one of the bullet journalists who love to create a different theme every month, the bujo monthly spread is a great place to decorate it with lettering or cute doodles.

Even if you aren't a big fan of scheduling everything in your life, I highly recommend you trying out a weekly bullet journal spread.

As a rule, one of the main reasons why you usually complain about a lack of time is that you underestimate how long it will take to accomplish the task.

Making a to-do list with all the daily tasks you need to accomplish to meet your weekly and eventually monthly goals is a real game-changer.

If you're wondering what are bullet journal collections, let me tell you something: you will love them. These are the main reason so many of us - planner girls - switched up and started using a bullet journal instead of an ordinary planner.

Moreover, it's a place you design all by yourself. According to your lifestyle and current needs, you create such useful pages like bullet journal birthday spread or budget template or not so useful (but creative) layouts like washi tape swatches.

Besides the obvious to-do list with your daily tasks, there are other cool bullet journal list examples you can incorporate into your everyday life.

For example, creating a simple booklist can motivate you to read more books. Additionally, having a packing list makes your vacation prep so much easier. Especially, if you add this page as your must-have collection spread so you avoid writing it over and over again. Also, working with a daily affirmation layout will keep your mind calm and simply help be in a good mood.

This is a place, where you can track your reading, review books, and make a book to-read list. Therefore you read more. Or maybe you prioritize the reading over watching Netflix, maybe you include it in your morning routine as I did. Definitely, it's pretty satisfying to review the book with these cute book doodles and check out a small box.

Along with this, you may want to add a book review page, where you include your thoughts and opinion and shortly summarize a plot.

Also, tracking how many pages you've just read with a page tracker can motivate you to read regularly and finish more books yearly.

First and foremost, this bullet journal page is perfect for any kind of travel, road trip, or family vacation. You include the most important information like a date, weather, and amount of days and suit your packing list to it. Also, you can plan your entire week in advance.

Generally, making a list of completed podcasts, courses or classes helps to stay on track and motivated. Additionally, I like to write down what I've just learned. It may be only one little thing but in the long term, you see how you progress.

Here's another example of a bullet journal list that'll help you to manage your cleaning schedule. Basically, I draw the apartment's basic sketch and list all tasks for specific areas. On the other side, I put Kon Marie checklist in order to declutter my space fast and easy.

Because of the fact that grocery and eating are for the most part the most expensive part of your monthly budget, planning meals in advance can really reduce costs. Also, I like to cook with seasonal fruit and veggies and write down meals according to season.

As a rule, changing even a tiny habit can completely change your life. Easier said than done. Definitely, it can be the hardest thing you've ever done - a lack of motivation and commitment makes it tremendously difficult.

However, if you decide to take baby steps and commit for at least a month, there is a pretty chance you will succeed.

With this in mind, one of the coolest tools that will help you is using a habit tracker in your bullet journal. Generally, the best way to change a habit is to track it.

As you can see, you can create your tracker more minimal as a chart or unleash your creativity and draw a flaming birthday cake for your mood tracker.

Below you can find the most popular habits to track.

Obviously, it's impossible to get rid of all your bad habits and develop these good ones immediately. However, pick one or two of habits I put below and track them in your habit tracker.

Also, what I like to do, is to note down my next habits I want to work on after I finished the first ones.

Last but not least, I always try to be as specific as I can, similar to yearly goals.

For instance, instead of writing "drinking less coffee" I'd note rather "drinking two cups daily".

So what else can you track in a bullet journal?

Basically, whatever you need.

As I mentioned before, tracking your progress is crucial to develop new habits.

So now, when you already choose the new habits you want to work on, it's time to design habit tracker pages in your bullet journal.

Obviously, you can stick to a classic, mini calendar habit tracker. On the other hand, it can be as minimalistic and simple as you want, without lettering and doodles.

But if you prefer creating separate trackers for specific habits, here are some cool ideas to get inspired.

Mood tracker

Spending log

Budget template

Snacks log

Level 10 Life

Year in Pixels

Birthday's tracker

Money to save

Sleep tracker

Waterlog

Workout tracker

Weather

Weight loss

Energy tracker

Savings

Steps

Food log

Measurements

Period

Run distance

For example, because I'm all about frugal living and personal finances, I also like to create a tracker for this specific life category. For example, in my budget bullet journal pages, you find such trackers as a spending log, saving tracker, net-worth tracker, or building an emergency fund log.

Furthermore, I track my quarterly goals and assess each of my life categories with the Level 10 Life exercise.

Basically, you can easily make this exercise once a year, but I usually work with quarterly goals. Definitely, it's less overwhelming.

Until now, I hope you find a lot of bullet journal page ideas you want to try out.

But what if you're a student and you need a little bit more specific bujo ideas to organize your school or college life.

Besides the basic bullet journal spreads like key and index, you will find it useful to create suitable layouts for organizing the school year.

I think I'm going to write another epic guide on how to start a bullet journal for college students so definitely stay tuned.

But today I share with you some great bullet journal page ideas for students:

Similar to bullet journaling for students, there are bujo pages dedicated to keeping your business life organized.

Definitely, building up your own company or striving for success in a corporation requires working with your goals and keeping up with the progress.

I tried many planners and nothing worked for me as well as a bullet journal. So having a place where I can write down all my dreams, plans, thoughts, tasks enables me to boost productivity, stay focused, and achieve business goals.

I wrote an entire blog post about setting up a bullet journal for work, so check it out.

Because I'm a full-time blogger now, I have also to focus on the business side of blogging like revenue.

For this reason, I created a blog post list, blogging goals page, stats tracker, and eventually, income and expenses spread. Not only these bullet journal pages help me create the best content for you, but also set blog priorities, and work on my blog monetization.

Below you can find awesome bullet journal page ideas for work:

After you organize your family and professional life and cultivate your personal growth, it's time to relax and think about yourself.

Practicing self-care is so important to all of us. In fact, it improves all aspects of your life with stress relief, overcoming anxiety, and better feeling.

For instance, you can add to your notebook such bujo pages like:

Undoubtedly, creating a morning routine structures your day from the beginning. Also, having even the smallest thing done, boost your productivity for the rest of your day.

Also, putting things you can do in 5,10,15 minutes is so helpful reference, when you have a little time, but you don't know what you can do with it.

So let's put your pragmatic part of starting a bujo and think about how you can be creative with it. Definitely, your notebook is a great place for creating funny spreads like make-up swatches, an about me page, or motivational quotes.

Along with this, the most fun part of bullet journaling is choosing theme ideas. After watching several "plan with me" YouTube videos, I bet you can't wait to start a new month. Basically, you decorate every bujo page with colorful doodles from your monthly theme. With this in mind, here I put a list of over 150 theme ideas for your bullet journal monthly cover and spreads.

Also, doodling and lettering are some of the funniest ways to spruce your layouts up.

If you're wondering how to doodle, my general advice would be to learn to notice basic shapes like square, circle, triangle in the item you want to draw, overcome your inner perfectionist and make it happen.

Firstly, you can begin with something less complicated like bullet journal banners and titles.

Then you start drawing simple but cute doodles using simple step-by-step tutorials.

Additionally, you can decorate your bujo spreads with beautiful lettering. With this in mind, here I gathered some awesome bullet journal font tips and tricks.

After a while, I found lettering to be more enjoyable. As well as that, designing a bullet journal quote page allows me to practice it regularly. Besides, looking at inspirational quotes helps me stay motivated and inspired every single day.

As a rule, your life is quite hectic.

Or maybe you're tight on a budget.

So if you don't like to spend a lot of time making layouts and investing in pretty pricey supplies, you may want to consider getting bullet journal templates.

Firstly, they're affordable. Secondly, they're easy to use. Basically, all you need to do is to glue them into your notebook or put them in a binder.

Above all, planning your busy life ahead should increase your productivity, not consuming a lot of time.

Although I include in this blog post over 150 bullet journal page ideas, there are still many options to discover and explore. Now, you can stop limiting yourself only to basic bullet journal spreads for beginners.

Finally, every bullet journal entry is 100% fitted to you, your lifestyle, and your personality. Even more - after getting to know some bujo tips and tricks, using a bullet journal as a planner will be so much fun.

Setting Up A New Bullet Journal
When people are getting started with a bullet journal it is hard to understand exactly how to set up a journal. This is the easiest bullet journal setup tutorial with tips for anyone starting a bullet journal from zero, migrating to a new notebook or changing your journal for the new year.
The flexibility of the Bullet Journal method can seem daunting to someone who is just getting started. When you have too many options it is easier to procrastinate and do nothing at all.

So how to get beyond that first page frighten and set up yourself for success in your bullet journaling journey?

Keep reading because in this post I will give you a quick tutorial to set up your planner efficiently, while also keeping the process simple.

How to set up a bullet journal

After you purchase your notebook it is good to have some bujo supplies for your journal setup.

To learn more about my favorite tools and supplies you can check out this post here.

If you already have your supplies then gather everything you need and let's start. Some essential tools are:

There may be some other tools you like to use or need but these are the basics to grab for now.

When you start working on different pages, you will decide then if more needs to be used.

Now let's follow this guide for bullet journal setup for beginners.

Bullet journal step by step setup

The way I explain below follow the original bullet journal setup. Remember to always do what works for you though.

But, as a beginner, you may not know yet what will be best for you, then you are free to follow the info below.

New Bullet Journal Set up

The general steps to set up bullet journal are:

You may start your bullet journal with a theme or a personal page, perhaps the year or even a quote.

There is really no hard rule here.

You can be as creative as you wish or go straight to the bullet journal keys.

Next, it is time to set your bullet journal keys and index.

Now that you are ready with the standard set up bullet journal pages we will follow the monthly calendar for the current month you are in.

In this part you will be able to log birthdays and anniversaries or other appointments and events for the near future that you already know about but don't have your weekly spread to add them yet.

After the initial pages I normally follow to setup my next month layouts.

You can read more about monthly layouts in this post here but I basically use the following spreads:

1. Bullet Journal Monthly Cover Page: You don't necessarily need one but I love the feeling of a new start and I also change monthly themes.

2. Monthly calendar spread: for the most important tasks and appointments of the month.

3. Goals for the month and to do list

4. Custom bulllet journal collections: basically anything you want to track this month such as book to read, gratitude log, doodles page, budget tracker, habit tracker etc. I have a comprehensive list of collection ideas here!

The monthly pages are followed by the more detailed weekly schedule pages.

The weekly, as it is commonly called, is where all your tasks and rapid logging happen (this can also happen in dailies, when you have more space per day to add your tasks).

Here you can plan what needs to be done each week, and on which day. And be totally creative about your layout, play with your bullet journal grid spacing to find the best weekly layout for you.

The weekly pages usually have larger sections for each day of the week so that you have enough room to write down daily trackers, detailed to-do lists for completing certain tasks or things you need before an appointment or event.

In my weekly set up I normally have:

1. Daily tracker section: for instance water intake, sleep tracker or brain dump etc.

2. Dailies: some people use weeklies and dailies (the difference between weeklies and dailies is just how you set your pages or what you call them). Dailies are more individual pages for days of the week, specially useful if you like to (art) journal in your bullet journal or to write prompts.

Bullet journal setup ideas

Check the options below to find the one that best suit you, we will give you bujo set up tips depending on what situation you are in at the moment.

If you are just starting on your first notebook then there are a few collections that you add first before anything else!

These collections are present when setting up a bullet journal for the first time to help you use the bullet journal method in the best way possible.

Standard Bullet Journal collections to include:

The pages above are the normal pages to include in every new book, however you don't have to stop here.

If you are starting a brand new book around New Year's time then, on top of the pages already mentioned above, you can also include:

Keep reading below because we have the monthly and weekly set up to add to the journal too.

If you are setting up your bullet journal when you have had previous notebooks already you might not need some of the collections again.

For instance, I don't need to repeat my bujo key page because I know exactly what every signifier means already.

I will also not add another vision board if it is not the end of the year and I will revisit my old one in the previous notebook.

I might add though new custom collection pages if they are relevant to the moment for me.

I add them here, before the monthly setup, if these collections are permanent and irrelevant to the month I am in, such as:

After the first standard and custom collection page set up, it is time to follow with the calendar spreads.

This has been the best bullet journal setup for me. Do you need to do the exact same thing?

Obviously not!

Heck, you could do it totally random to start with and have the collection pages whenever you remember to add one.

How do you set up your bujo? Let me know in comments below.

Now, some of you may be asking yourselves, "What are bujos?" So here's a brief introduction: bujos, or bullet journals, are a sort of DIY planner. They start with a blank notebook-I personally use one with a dot grid-and then you create a planner system for yourself. The DIY nature provides unlimited customizability, and a lot of people are doing some really creative things with their bujos. A bujo spread is just a section of a bujo; it can be a tracker, a regular ol' planner section, or your big monthly spread.

Trackers are one of the things you can add to your bujo to hold yourself accountable for various tasks or just to keep a record. There are mood trackers, chore trackers, exercise trackers, and, of course, reading trackers!

If you're feeling a bit lost, check out this guide that explains everything much more in depth.

I have been on this path of self-discovery for some time now. In my journey, I have tried a lot of different supplies. It's actually one of the best things about diving into the world of journaling, especially for a pen and paper junkie like myself. But let's be honest - it can be extremely daunting trying to figure out what supplies to spend your hard-earned cash on. No one wants to sink their money in a bad set of pens or a crappy notebook. I want to help you cut out the hard part of getting started and let you in on my favorite supplies that I've used over the years. Allow me to walk you through my top choices for the best bullet journal supplies.

The bullet journal is what started it all for me. My first humble bullet journal helped me establish roots that led to brush lettering and watercolor journaling in a way that I never imagined. It just seems right to share my best bullet journal supplies before moving on to anything else. To make this less overwhelming, I'm going to separate out the bullet journal supplies into two categories: beginner supplies and advanced supplies.

Supplies for Beginners

When you begin your very first bullet journal, you truly only need a notebook and a pencil/pen. You can make it as simple and utilitarian as you want - or use that single pen to make some doodle magic. It's totally your call. But perhaps you want to invest a little bit in your productivity and organization. If so, something as simple as a small set of pens or a minor notebook upgrade can really make a huge difference. I know it did for me!

That being said, don't feel compelled to buy all the bullet journal supplies you see before you. I know it's tempting. Instead, try picking out one or two things at a time and growing your bullet journal supplies over a period of time.

The notebook is the foundation of your whole bullet journal operation, so I would highly suggest you get a notebook that you love. Don't spend so much money that you're afraid of writing in the journal and wasting the pages - after all, those pages are there for you to write in. So find a notebook that is a balance of economic and luxurious.

This is hands down my favorite overall bullet journal notebook. Grab the dot grid instead of ruled or blank pages for a bit of subtle structure that allows a ton of creative freedom. One thing I especially love about the Leuchtturm is that you can use watercolors lightly in them! Check out my bullet journal watercolor test to see for yourself. And if the A5 size isn't your cup of tea, you can grab a Leuchtturm A6 or B5, which both perform just as beautifully as the A5.
Read my full Leuchtturm1917 review.
A new breed of bullet journal is on the market. This watercolor journal has the quality paper you need for true watercolor art combined with the utility and structure of a journal. That's what makes this Archer & Olive exclusive my favorite choice for a more art-heavy bullet journal.

You can see my full review of this heavy hitter here.

Want a bullet journal that's going to stand out? Get a full journal of luxurious black pages and you'll have page after page of stunning contrast. This lovely Blackout! Book from Archer & Olive packs a punch without diminishing quality. All you need is a pack of your favorite gel pens and you can have the most unique bullet journal on the block.

You can read my full review here, or see all my favorite pens for this special journal here.

The Rhodiarama notebook is yet another excellent option for the beginner bullet journal. The notebook has a softcover with a lovely texture and it's available in many colors. And the paper is a dream to write on, especially if you're a fan of juicier pens.

The Moleskine line of notebooks is another great place to turn for your bullet journal. Their softcover and slim profile make them a great notebook to slip in your bag and take on the go. And you can also use watercolors in the Moleskine if you wish, though their paper is a hair thinner than the paper of the Leuchtturm.

The notebook might be the foundation for your bullet journal, but the pens you use can impact your use of the bullet journal just as deeply. It's important to use a writing utensil that you don't hate. If you're trying to use a crusty old pen that you got from your banker's desk, it will likely not add joy to the process of using your bullet journal. Instead, opt for one pen or a set of pens that are nice to use - this will make it easier to use your bullet journal more regularly, which is imperative as you develop the habit.

Is it a pen? No. But is it useful? Yes! I love these cheap pencils for laying out spreads before I use ink or simply for doodling. Ticonderoga has been my go-to pencil brand since high school.

Looking for a nice set of black pens? These Microns will do the trick! They come in a variety of nib sizes so you can get extra fine lines to more bold strokes. Mine lasted me for years of abuse, so I can personally vouch for their dependability.

If you want to have some options for black pens, here's another that I use and love. The Mono drawing pens are perfect for plain ol' writing all the way to doodles and drawings. And they, too, come in a variety of nib sizes.

Sometimes you just want a cheap pen on hand. If you bullet journal on the go or at work, your supplies might get lost or stolen by sticky-fingered coworkers. But you don't want to compromise on performance, do you? That's where these G-2 Pens (or their Pilot Precise cousins) come into play. They come in black as well as a variety of colors, and their ink is quite satisfying to lay down on the page.

A major problem that many beginner bullet journalers face is the fear of making mistakes. It's one that can be overwhelming and lead to a delay or outright halt of progress. If that's something that worries you, then I would suggest the erasable Pilot FriXion pens. With an erasable pen, you might spend less time worrying about mistakes and more time writing.

If color is the name of your game, then consider this fineliner set. As the name implies, they indeed have very fine lines. And their range of colors is incredible and crisp on the page. These pens are excellent for taking color-coded notes or for simple doodling with all the power of the rainbow.

Personally, I love the feel of a felt tip pen. I just love the way they write. That's why I'm throwing this set of Paper Mate Flair pens on the list - some people might prefer a colorful set of pens with that unbeatable felt tip feeling.

You need highlighters for your bullet journal, right? Look no further than these Zebra Mildliners. I was never a big fan of highlighters until I found this brand. But after using the Mildliners, I became a convert. Most highlighter sets have the same screaming neon colors, but Zebra offers you softer hues. You can get pastels, jewel tones, and earth tones - which to me is a million times better than neon yellow.

Read my full Zebra Mildliners review.

Besides the obvious bullet journal supplies of a notebook and pens, there are a few other items that you might want to pick up to make your experience fun. These are by no mean necessary, but they might make your bullet journal easier to create or just more enjoyable!

When you're first beginning your bullet journal, you might want to lean on bullet journal printables every once in a while to let you focus on other aspects of your planning. If that sounds like something you'd like to do, I've got you covered with the free bullet journal printables available in the Fox Den Resource Library. Just subscribe to my email list and the printables are all yours!

There is something intoxicating about washi tape. The ability to add colorful flair and design to your bullet journal with a snap of your fingers (or nearly) is pretty amazing. And washi tape comes in an infinite variety of colors, textures, patterns, and sizes, so there really is something for everyone. A word of warning, though: you may become addicted and collected a thousand washi tapes. Beware.

I can't count the number of times that a ruler has come in handy for my bullet journal. It's just one of those things that can make or break a spread, and it's invaluable to have one in my pencil bag. I personally love one with a cork back so it doesn't slip while I'm using it.

Speaking of a pencil bag, this little pouch makes traveling with your bullet journal a million times easier. Keeping a bunch of pens rattling around in your purse or backpack isn't ideal - for you or the longevity of the pens.

If you've been using your bullet journal for a while and you feel like you have a solid grasp on the basics, then you are probably ready to step up your game. There are a ton of handy bullet journal supplies that might overwhelm a beginner but are perfect for someone more advanced in the bullet journal world. As you use your bullet journal more and begin to understand your ideal use of the system, you will have a better idea of which of the supplies listed below are right for you.

There are a ton of incredible pens and markers out there that are begging to be used in a bullet journal. Each of the materials listed here is tried and true, but it's up to you to figure out which ones are right for your style.

Ever been curious about using a fountain pen? The Pilot Metropolitan is an excellent jump into the world of fountain pens, and it's quite affordable, too. This pen is a joy to write with and will make you excited to pick up your pen and use your bullet journal.

When it comes to fountain pens, I have found the Lami Safari to jump to the top of my list every time. It is affordable, easy to use, comfortable in the hand, and classy looking to boot.
Read my full Pilot Metropolitan review.
Like I said earlier, bullet journaling was the catalyst I needed to start my love of brush lettering. If you want to incorporate lettering into your notebook, then these Dual Brush Pens are a must-have. You can also use them for highlighting and adding all kinds of decoration to your bullet journal!
Read my full Lamy Safari review.
This is one of those pens that I will likely never, ever stop buying. I love these pens. They are very fine brush pens, making them perfect for the narrow corridors of a bullet journal. I love using them for drawing, lettering, creating spreads and boxes, and so much more. They are beloved to me.
Read my full Tombow Dual Brush Pen review.
Read my full Tombow Fudenosuke review.

Whether you like brush lettering or not, I'd still recommend this brush pen. It packs a huge punch with its bold, black color and flexible brush tip. I have used it for years in setting up my spreads because I love the variation in line width and texture that it produces.

I've had these for a long time, and I still use them after all these years. When I got the Staedtler set I fully expected to stop using these, but I just keep coming back. I can't really quantify what I like about these markers, but I just love the way they write. Prismacolor is just really good at what they do.

This pack of pens has a huge level of variety that I just love. There are drawing pens, different brush pens, and even a fat bullet tip pen. If you want to try out brush pens without committing to a whole set, this is the option for you.

Gel pens just create nostalgia for those middle school days where I took all my notes in sparkly gel ink. The Gelly Roll pens are more than a trip down memory lane, though - they're quality. These bright, bold, and beautiful colors glide on the page and stand out like nothing else.

Want an ink like no other? The Souffle set of pens are slow to dry but sure to impress with their buttery soft texture. I love these pens for their unbeatable luxury.

When I want to add a dash of shine to my bullet journal page, I break out my Gelly Roll metallics. These inexpensive pens give a smooth sheen that can't be topped.

Whether I want to add white accents to my lettering or write entirely in white on a painted page, I turn to the Gelly Roll white pens. They are the best white gel pens I've used to date, rocking opaque white ink that shows boldly on the page.

It's not often that I find a set of brush pens that knock my socks off, but this pack of stunning metallic colors is a real winner. The pens are the perfect amount of spring and snap for brush lettering, and the shine is undeniable.

If you're looking to get a little extra creative with your planning, then you'll love these artsy bullet journal supplies!

These incredibly inexpensive paints will give you tons of opportunities to make a splash with your bullet journal spreads.

These vibrant liquid paints pack a punch in the absolute best way. I own two of the three Hydrus sets and I've had them for years. Despite lots of use, none of the colors are close to running out thanks to how concentrated they are. Just a drop or two in a palette will get the job done!

Despite owning lots of different sets of watercolors, my Senneiler palette is nearly always the one I reach for. It has velvety colors, impeccable control, and a beautiful texture when dried.

When I want to pull out all the stops for a bullet journal spread, I grab my Colirocolor metallic paints. These dreamy golden and pearlescent watercolors are a surefire way to create a showstopper piece of art.

Read my Colirocolor Watercolors review.
Read my Sennelier Watercolors review.
I have used many a paintbrush in my day, but my favorites so far are my Grumbacher brushes. They simply are dependable, durable, and comfortable for long painting sessions.

If you want to dabble in watercolors in your bullet journal, then the Pentel Aquash Brush Pens are perfect for you. They make it incredibly easy to splash some color on the page without a whole lot of fuss. And lots of notebooks handle it better than you might imagine. Check out these four easy watercolor techniques to use in your bullet journal for some inspiration!

Read my Pentel Water Brush Pen review.

These random bits and bobs are definitely a little bit extra, but you might find something that you absolutely cannot bullet journal without.

When you're trying to create a circle for a spread, like a Level 10 Life chart, it can take forever. Even if you're using a dot grid notebook, the process isn't what I'd call easy. Grab yourself this affordable circle maker, though, and you'll be whipping out circles all day long without breaking a sweat.

I love using Post It Notes in my bullet journal. Sometimes I use them to jot down a thought or a plan before I properly organize it on the page. Sometimes I use them as a reminder, moving the note from page to page until I get a task done. Other times, I use them for extra information that couldn't fit onto a page. One way for another, Post Its have been incredibly useful to me over the years.

Want to add charm, art, and gorgeous design to your bullet journal with minimal effort? There are tons of stickers in the world that will make you go whoa. Check out 50 of my favorite stickers for your bullet journal here or pop over to my shop to see what handmade stickers I'm cooking up!

I took ages to finally buy a set of paper/binder clips, but now that I have them, I use them every day. Save yourself the annoyance and frustration and just grab a cute set of clips. You'll thank yourself later.

If you like to tab your pages, then you will love Avery's line of Ultra Tabs. They are incredibly durable, come in a ton of cute patterns, colors, and shapes, and are smudge resistant. I was super impressed by this line of tabs, and you will be, too.

Are you a fan of taping things into your bullet journal? Then grab one of these Tombow adhesive tapes. They rock. You can slip one into your pencil bag and keep in on the go to paste in quotes, pictures, doodles, and just about anything else your heart desires.

Want to read some great books to help you organize your life and make a better use of your bullet journal? Here are a few excellent choices to get you going. And if you don't have time to sit down and read, give Audible a try! You can listen to books on your commute to work, while you're doing chores around your house, or while you chill in the bathtub. It's a great option for people with packed schedules, and you can try it for 30 days free and get 2 free audiobooks just to test it out! Just head here to sign up for a trial and see if it rocks your world.

This book gives some fantastic techniques to maximize your mornings and develop killer habits. In fact, the Level 10 Life technique comes straight from this book, so you know it's packed full of awesomeness!

This book might not be about journaling, per se, but many people in the bullet journal community have found it incredibly helfpul for organizing their lives in general. The bullet journal can help you organize your mind, and this book can help you organize your physical space so you can achieve balance!

Want a book written by a member of the bullet journal community? Look no further! Megan from Page Flutter penned this awesome book chalk full of insipiration and bullet journal eye candy. There's even a little mention of me in there!

While I hope you find this list of bullet journal supplies helpful, I just want to remind you that you don't need a ton of stuff to have a successful bullet journal. What you need is some way to make the process enjoyable - whether that means using nice supplies, drinking a hot cup of coffee while you write, or listing to your favorite music. Don't feel like you need to spend a ton of money on a huge collection of supplies in order to get the most out of your bullet journal. But don't be afraid to indulge yourself a little either! If you can strike a nice balance with your supplies, you will find that your bullet journal system will develop nicely and you will love the process. Now go out there and rock your bullet journal!
