I’ve been bullet journaling for 18 months now and it’s been a great system. I used an MD notebook last year and whilst I got a lot of use out of it, I didn’t finish using the notebook when the year was up.
I’m using the leuchtturm1917 bullet journal notebook this year and I’ve found dot grid to be space efficient, hence I use a lot less pages than before.
In order to fully utilise it, I’ve inserted some fun, some useful content pages. I’ll share some of those ideas here:
- Quotes: it’s kinda of cliche but I love song lyrices and I always want to remember them. You can also write down other quotes you come across or just facts.
- Washi Tape/Pen Swatches: it’s always difficult to remember pen colours so having a reference is useful. Same with washi tape, with the added bonus of documenting what you have so you don’t buy something similar, hopefully.
- Mood Tracker: Illustrated mood trackers are such a fun idea. It’s like mindfulness colouring in a way
- Cleaning Schedule: I always need one of these. Other than a big overall list, I make a mini one every month.
- Wishlist: whatever you have a wishlist for, put it in your bujo!
- Favourite Cafes etc: Everytime I come across a place I would like to visit, I put it in this list.
- Things to do when you have time off: when life gets so busy, you need some ideas!
- Patterns/Ideas: ideas for bujo in a bujo. It’s bujoception. Also great for noting down cute illustration ideas from pinterest/instagram.
- Project list: I like to keep track of the many things I have going on at the same time. This is a good way to have that in a one page view.
- Recipes/meal planning: admittedly I haven’t done this but I will in the future!
Do you have other bujo ideas? Let me know in the comments!
