I'm sure you've probably heard of bullet journaling. If not, I'm here to enlighten you! Bullet journaling is kind of like planning, but I am A LOT more creative with my bullet journal than I am with my planner. From little doodles to fun pages I feel that bullet journaling is a great way to let you have fun and be artistic but is still an amazing way to stay organized. In this post I will show y'all my pages so far and tell y'all about my favorite products. (Also, so sorry for the bad lighting in these pictures!) This is my bullet journal. It's a marble-printed notebook from HomeGoods that I got for really cheap. Basically any notebook will work! The little rose gold bar says "journal". The first page of my bullet journal is my index. This is where you write down what each page is and its page number so you can locate the page easier when you have a lot of pages. ( The orange washi-tape on the side is just covering up where I had cut out other pages. I had lots of other pages before but I didn't like how they were organized so I cut them out) The next 2 pages I left blank for extra index pages. My next two pages are my calendars. The first page is my 2017 yearly spread and the next is my June spread. Below I wrote important dates and holidays for that month. The next page in my journal is a habit tracker. I drew a giant grid (always use a ruler!) and wrote down the dates at the top and tasks that may be easy to forget on the side. I basically wrote things like "clean the guinea pig cage" or "bible study". This page really helps me to stay organized. After that I have my Instagram tracker. On June 1st I jotted down how many followers, posts, and blog posts I had. Then, on June 30th I will do the same so I can see my growth for that month. Below, I had space left, so I just wrote my goal there. On the right side is my gratitude list-what I'm thankful for, or examples of God. Here I write down anything I am thankful for so I never take those things for-granted. So those are all of my pages so far. Now, I will show y'all my favorite products to use. I use these GelWriter pens I got from Sam's. Yes, I know 100 pens is kind of crazy, but they were only $15. These pens write so smoothly and they come in every color imaginable- even neons, pastels, metallic, and glitter! They came in their own stand so you don't have to take them out and cram them into a pencil pouch. The only downsides is that they run out of ink fast, and they kind of bleed through if you write too hard. I definitely would still recommend them though! These are my favorite colors. I used the flash in this picture just so y'all could see how sparkily they are! The washi tape I use is just from my old planner that I got at Michaels. I love the designs!
So those were really the only products I use. If you want to start a bullet journal, I've gathered up some page ideas to help you get started!
