It has been a season of hectic schedules, stress, and emotionally exhausting events. So for my theme for August, I decided to switch things up and go with a minimalist theme based around a word.   Happy Theme After a stressful and exhausting couple of months, I really wanted to take a step back this month. Instead of picking a theme based around an object, I decided to use a word as my theme. This month is all about “happy.” The color yellow has always conveyed a sense of happiness to me. So I decided to do yellow dots for this month’s theme because it isRead More →

April has arrived, Spring is here, and all is … stuck at home because of a virus. March was a crazy month and 2020 is shaping up to be a year none of us will forget. I actually stepped away from my normal bullet journal drawings in March because of the craziness in the world. My bullet journal because sort of a journal in this time and I haven’t drawn pretty much the entire month. With anxiety running rampant and the whole world being at my normal anxiety levels I’m starting to feel the artist tingle. You know that desire to drown out the entireRead More →

We have 29 days in February this year. That’s one extra day to make your goals a reality. One extra day to get in self care. One extra day to enjoy your family. This year my extra day will probably be spent on self care. That’s right instead of chasing my goals like I do almost every other day of the year, I will be turning into a blanket burrito. Curled up in bed, with my tablet, and reading for the entire day. So I decided to take my favorite self care activity and turn it into my monthly bullet journal theme for February. TableRead More →

This December I have decided to go with a snowflake theme in my bullet journal. I am also getting prepared to close out the year and ending it on a strong note. This year has been a whirlwind for me both personally and in my bullet journals. I’ve experimented with daily and weekly spreads, did a lot of journaling through particularly hard moments in my life, and finally found a few systems that work well for me. As we close out this year and move into a new decade I find myself thinking of new ways to organize and plan my life in my bulletRead More →

It’s the second to last month in the decade and I’m excited! This month’s tea time theme is courtesy of recent binged shows and the relaxing nature of tea. As I jump into plans for the next decade, this month is jam packed with to do’s that need to get done. So I’ve switched it up my bullet journal a bit from the last two months. There are new spread layouts and a few favorites and they are all themed for afternoon tea time. The products I used to create my tea time theme this month are: Scribbles That Matter Journal Micron Thinliners 1, 3,Read More →

As a planner living my life day today has been a killer on my productivity. I’m looking forward to getting backRead More →

It’s no secret that yellow is my favorite color. Maybe it’s the Hufflepuff pride in me or that my favorite teams are all black and yellow. Personally I think it’s because yellow is such a great happy color. So if you need something bright and happy to look at, these yellow bullet journal ideas are great for inspiration. In fact, for August 2019 I will be doing a yellow themed bullet journal spread that’s based on the word happy. Yellow reminds me of happiness and I need a little bit more of it in my life. It’s been a bit stressful in my house latelyRead More →

Monthly cover pages serve more than just a way to mark the beginning of the month. They set the tone and the theme for the entire month. While not a required page in a bullet journal it is a useful page to start off a new month. It’s like creating a fresh start from the previous month. Especially if you are using a new theme. In your own monthly pages do not be afraid to get creative. Use doodles, quotes, or even a full on theme. Creating a cover page for your monthly layout helps you to stick to a chosen theme throughout the month.Read More →

There are times in our bullet journaling when all we want to do is a simple one color theme. Our purses and bags can only carry so many pens. It can be difficult to search through all of them to find the right shade. When this happens you pick your couple of colors and you create spreads with just those colors. I did this in my February 2019 bullet journal setup. I was in a pink mood that month so I used pink and grey mildliner highlighters. To give you more pink inspiration for your bullet journal I went on the hunt for the prettiestRead More →

It feels good to be back in the bullet journal game. For a while now I have been relying heavily on electronic planning because I’ve been stuck at my computer. Well that is changing. Today I’m showing you my bullet journal setup for June. I’m doing things a little differently this month from what I used to do. Partly because the past few months I’ve been lacking on my bullet journals and partly because my schedule is about to be extremely hectic.

It happens in any hobby, life gets busy and your hobby just slides to the side to wait patiently for you to come back. This is what happened to me with Bullet Journaling for the past couple of months. I wanted to spend time in my journal, I even created a March layout. I just didn’t use it. Partly because I left my journal in my bedroom instead of at my desk. Partly because I was so consumed with work through March that I was using electronic planning with Trello. It’s ok though. Feeling like a complete scattered – mess I created my April spreadRead More →

My bullet journal setup for February is a minimalist but colorful setup. In keeping with Valentine’s day I went ahead and used pink as one of my colors. However, I am not a huge Valentine’s Day fan so I paired it with a grey and left hearts completely out of this theme. It’s not that I dislike the holiday – I just don’t celebrate it. If you do that is awesome and I wish you a very happy day filled with joy and love. For being a short month I have a lot going on. My son’s birthday, our anniversary, and of course all theRead More →

Fuzzy sweaters, hot drinks, lighting the fireplace, and glitter falling from the sky. These are the things that I absolutely love about winter. So in anticipation for this season I am sharing some bullet journal winter doodles. When doodling you can do one of two things. Either practice all your doodles on one page in your journal or practice in a separate notebook. No matter what practice in pencil and fill out in your marker or colored pencils later. Popular colors for winter doodles are blues, purples, and of course green and red. This of course doesn’t mean you need to stick to these only.Read More →

I love Halloween doodles. They are fun to create, to color, and can be as creepy, cartoonish, or beautiful as you wish. October is usually when the Instagram feeds fill up with original Halloween doodles. I even created a few of my own with how to’s for this post. Doodles are more than just funny cartoon drawings, they can look realistic too. Doodles can be any type of idle drawing. You don’t think about a doodle too much you just kind of go with the flow of the drawing. As always make sure you sketch out in pencil first and then fill it in withRead More →
