Family Spreads
Use these to track what’s most important in life. 🙂
- Birthdays — write down birthdays and important anniversary dates for your family and friends. This way, you’ll never forget a birthday again (calendar alerts on your phone work best though)! 😀
- Things My Kids Say — this can be an absolutely hilarious spread to look back on. All kids have their hilarious quotes, so a spread in your journal with all those “darndest things”, is a really fun way to keep up with your little comedians.
- Holiday Gift Ideas — throughout the year, write down gift ideas for your loved ones. That way, when Christmas and birthdays come around, you can just look at your list to know exactly who wants what!
- Date Night Ideas — make a list of fun and unique date ideas, so you have something to look at when you ask yourself… “what should we do this weekend?”
- Yours & Kids Doctor Appts. — keep up with your doctor appointments and make sure to have them scheduled regularly. You can even take it a step further and write down any test results or doctor’s advice.
- Family Members Addresses — when you’re ready to send cards or gifts, you’ll know where to send them!
- Party or Holiday Planning — when planning for a big holiday get together, write down who’s bringing what and all of your responsibilities and party ideas. Reference the list when it’s time to plan the event to stay ahead of the game! It will definitely help you relieve some stress too. 😉
- New Baby “Firsts” — keep track of big (and small) milestones in your baby’s life. This is such a cool spread to keep in the Memory box.

It get's better: there are 13 more...

- Kids’ Parents, Coaches, Teachers’ Contact Information — this is probably best kept on your phone, but you can keep these details in your journal too just in case.

- Family Tree — do you have trouble remembering the names of everyone in your family? You’re not alone. Draw a family tree so you can keep track of all your extended family!
Alright! That’s it for Family spreads. We’re just getting started…
Health Spreads
Keep your health on track with these layout ideas. ❤️
- Fitness Goals — write down your fitness goals and the steps you need to take to get there.
- Water Tracker — do you know how much water you should be drinking? Think of your weight in pounds and divide it by 2. This is how many ounces of water you should be drinking each day (at least!). Make a spread to make sure you’re getting all of the water you need, or keep up with it in your weekly and daily spreads.

Entertainment
Hollywood never sleeps. Here’s how to keep track of the bright lights.
- TV Series Tracker — series trackers are great for Netflix bingers. Once you finish a season, check it off.

- Sports Scores and Results — use your sports schedule spread or a new spread to track the scores of your favorite teams. You can even write in highlights or records broken during each game.
- Concert Tracker — write down any concerts you’ve been to or list your favorite concerts ever! Or make a spread based on one concert you just went to — write out your favorite songs, moments, and memories from the show.
- Song of the Day / Week / Month — if you’re a music lover like me, you’re always looking to find new songs. Spotify and Last.FM keep up with your listening habits, so they can tell you what your favorite songs were for a particular week or month. You could also write down songs you find yourself listening to on repeat!
- Book Reviews — while you’re reading a book (or once you finish), write a review about the book and whether you would read it again.
- Podcasts — create a list of favorite shows and episodes, and jot down the date you subscribed as well.
- Award Shows — make a spread full of your predictions for the Grammy winners — or Oscars, or VMAs, etc. — it’s fun to make award shows into “games” where you pick the winners before they’re announced!
- Favorite Playlists — I try to find at least one new playlist a month based off of my Spotify’s suggestions. Write down your favorite playlists so you can come back to them later.
- Quotes from Books — do any quotes stand out from your favorite books? Make a full page of the best quotes you read.
Wait: we got 30 more to go!
- Show Premieres — when does your favorite show premiere? Make a list of future premieres of your favorite shows OR do some Googling, list your favorite shows of all time, and then write down what date they first EVER premiered. Then feel old!
- Release Dates: Theater & Video — create a list or use a calendar to mark releases of movies. Track the release of movies in the movie theater OR the video release date.
- Movie & TV Ratings — list movies or TV shows you watch with star ratings beside them. You can even add a short description of what you liked and disliked about the movie. Just answer the question: would you watch again?
- TV Show Progress — track episodes you’ve seen of your favorite TV shows. If you know how many episodes are in a TV show, you can make the tracker before the season starts. If not, list the episodes as the show airs.
- TV Shows to Watch — make a list of TV shows you’re dying to see! You can also make a list of shows you’ve already watched, and what season and channel they’re on.
- Concert Venue Schedule — do you have a concert venue nearby? Check out their upcoming schedule and make a list of all the events you’d like to attend!
- All-Time Favorite Songs / Bands — make a list of your favorite artists, bands, and songs. This makes for an awesome custom playlist!
- Song Lyrics — certain songs are very meaningful and their lyrics can be used as the focus of a spread. Practice your lettering with some of your favorite song lyrics.

- Library Book Tracker — list library books that you’ve checked out and their due dates. You can also make notes about the best books and ones you would recommend to others.
- Books to Read — jot down books you want to read or download. I personally use the app Goodreads and then update my journal list when I add new books.

- Favorite Books — make a list of your all-time favorite books!
- Favorite Sports Team Schedule — do you have a favorite team? Write their schedule down in your journal, and if it’s televised, write down which channel it will air on.
- Event Planning — are you ever in charge of planning or helping to plan an event? Brainstorm event ideas and set up a timeline for your to-do’s in your journal.
- Favorite Apps — favorites change over the years and it’s nice to have a reference in case you ever forget the name of a particular app. I made a mock-up of my home screen and drew all of the apps in my journal.
- Celebrities / Idols — do you fangirl over certain celebrities? Or maybe you have a certain respect for leaders in a particular industry? Make a spread about them!
- Podcast Progress — do you listen to a ton of podcasts? Sometimes it’s hard to keep up. Make a list of all of the podcasts you listen to and track the episode numbers.
- Olympics — this is a fun spread to make every few years when the Olympics come around. Keep track of your favorite scheduled events and medal count.
- Stand-Up Comedians — this is one of the very first lists I ever made in my bullet journal! I’m a huge stand-up fan and listed out all of the comedians I’ve seen live. Hint: You can go back on Ticketmaster and StubHub to see your ticket purchase history. 😉
- Documentaries — track the documentaries you want to watch or your favorites you have watched… FYI Netflix is full of them!
- Favorite Games — make a list of your favorite board games or games to play on a rainy day.

- Favorite Athletes — do you have a favorite athlete? Track their events, their scores, and records on a page in your journal.

- Funny Jokes — have you ever been asked to tell a funny joke? My mind will seriously go blank if anyone asks me that, but your journal is a good place to keep some fun one-liners. 🤣
- NFL Draft — if you’re a pro football fan, you love draft day! Keep track of the first round of the NFL draft or the new guys drafted to your favorite team.
- Favorite Magazines — jot down a list of your favorite magazines. If you subscribe to any, write down when and how to renew.
- Museums — track new museums you visit. Write down their location, your experience, and your favorite parts about the museum.
Entertainment is a wrap! Let’s keep this train rolling…
Creative
Not the creative type? We’re about to change that…
- Doodle a Day — practice doodling and join a doodle challenge. Divide your page up into a calendar and challenge yourself to draw one doodle each day of the month! There are several online doodle challenges you can choose from.
- Doodle How-To — have a doodle you want to remember how to draw? Draw the doodle in 3-4 steps (these make for sweet Instagram posts!)
- Doodle Practice — make a page or section in your book with nothing but doodles. To get ideas, Google what you’re trying to draw + “doodle” at the end (e.g. dogs + “doodle”), then click Image up top for some super ideas for your own doodles!
- Fonts — create your own font or see how many versions of one letter you can come up with!
- Washi Collection — get creative and make a washi tape spread with samples of all your washi tape designs (e.g. leaves on trees).
- Pen Test Page — test a collection of your pens in your journal. This will show you how the color of a certain pen looks on paper and you also can also test if a pen bleeds or not.
- Hello Page — get creative with an “Intro page” for separate months or sections of your journal.
- Pattern Practice — even if you’re not super artistic, doodling patterns is a fun way to get creative. Try some repetitive pattern designs like these. If you wanna learn from a pro, Catja from @deluxe.journaling teaches how to get started with amazing pattern designs in an exclusive video lesson in our Journal You Course.
See?! Being creative isn’t that hard! 😚
Get ready: more ideas coming up!
Finance
Ideas to manage your expenses and track your budget.
- Subscription Services — do you use Amazon Prime, Netflix or Spotify? Go through your last credit card statement and see what you’re paying each month. Anytime you start a new subscription — WRITE IT DOWN and when it renews (so you don’t get an unexpected bill).
- Stocks to Watch — find a stock you want to own (or do own) and track it once a week or monthly.
- Budgeting — write down EVERYTHING you spend for an entire month and categorize them into things like bills, grocery, entertainment, subscription fees, etc. See where you can cut back and create a monthly or weekly budget for yourself.
- Bills — make a checklist of all of your bills and check off when you pay them (and for how much).
- Credit Score — did you know you can access your credit score for free every few months? Check with your credit card company or Mint.com and get yours. Document your score at least every quarter to see where you stand, and keep it in check!
- Investments Monthly Tracker — check your financial statements and investments each month. Your reports will have graphs, but drawing a journal graph is even more fun. 😃
- Savings — do you like to save? If you don’t, you should. I use a service called Acorns (affiliate link) that automatically rounds up (to the nearest dollar) your purchases from your debit or credit card and invests that money into a savings account… it’s savings you don’t have to think about.
- Future Expenses — have some big expenses on the horizon? Make a list of these so you know what to expect when the time comes.
- Tax Filing — the next time you file taxes, make a list of the documents you need and where to find them. This will be SO helpful the next year when you’re ready to file again.
- No Spend Days — make a tracker with days you don’t spend any money. See how long you can go by living on what you have already.
Guess what? 5 more ideas are waiting...
- Check, Credit / Debit Card Log — track what you spend. When you pay with a debit or credit card, it’s hard to keep track of everything that’s leaving your bank account. Make it a habit to write it down at the end of each day. You can check your accounts online, or go from memory and reconcile at the end of the month.
- A “Might Buy” List — before purchasing anything big, add it to a “might buy” list. Wait a week or two, then come back to the list to see if you really still need it.
- Donations — write down all of the donations you make throughout the year. You’ll be ready when tax season comes around!
- Coupons & Gift Card Expiration — have you ever got a coupon from a store that’s good for only the NEXT month? Keep track of when these deals are happening so you don’t lose out on that cash. You can even add an envelope on this page to keep up with these coupons!
- Online Coupon Codes — did you know you can save big money with my coupon code LIFEBYWHITNEY15 at Tombow? Well, now you do! Make a list of these everlasting coupon codes in your journal to reference whenever you’re ready to shop!
Finance done. I have more ideas when you’re ready!
Food & Drink
The best bullet journaling food ideas ever.
- Restaurants to Try — are there restaurants around you that you keep meaning to try? Create a spread with them and make it a point to visit new restaurants when you can!
- Recipes to Try — I have a whole journal devoted to food, and I started going through ALL of my cookbooks with a pen and my journal writing down all the recipes I wanted to try.
- Favorite Recipes — my favorite recipes are all in separate cookbooks I own. To remember where they are, I’ll make a list of my very favorites and where to find them (which book, page number or blog/website). So when I’m looking for that best shrimp curry recipe, I know exactly where to find it!
- Favorite Go-To Meals — this is a perfect spread for busy moms! Make a list of your quick go-to meals that you cook all the time (or ones that are easy prep and clean-up). Reference this list when you’re meal planning and your weeks will be free of that “What’s for Dinner” stress.
- Wine & Beer Tracker — if you enjoy trying new wine or beer, you may want to make a drink rating spread. Write down wines you buy and try, and keep track of your favorites and the ones you’d never buy again.
- Restaurant Favorites — write down your favorite restaurants and what dishes you’d recommend. Next time you have company, have them look at this list when you’re thinking of where to go eat out.
- Bag Lunch Ideas — do you take your lunch to work? Soups and salads can only go so far. Make a list of lunch ideas and reference it when you’re meal prepping for the week.
- Ingredients to Try or Buy — there’s been several times when I’ve been looking at a recipe and ask “WHAT IS THAT!?” Most of the time, I’ll look up the ingredient, but this spread would make for a cool informational reference that shows new ingredients and where to buy them.
- Favorite Grocery Product Brands — are you obsessed with only ONE brand of a certain product (hello Mezzetta olives)? It’s true that most of the generic store brands are just as good, so make a spread with your favorite items and brand preferences!
- Food Festival Dates — since I live in a touristy town, we have at least 10 food festivals every year. It helps to track all of them in one spot and add any new ones that are just announced.
13 more recipes coming up...
- New Foods Tried — I used to be the PICKIEST eater ever, but I’ve definitely expanded my horizons in the past 10 years. If you’re picky too, make it a goal to try a new food each week. You never know, you might fall in love!
- Cookbooks I Want — if you can’t tell already, I love to cook, and I have a wishlist full of cookbooks on Amazon. This is a perfect spread to make if you’re a cookbook freak like me!
- Grocery Lists — most of us have certain staples in our pantry. Make a list of these grocery staples in your journal and reference it when you’re making your weekly grocery list. You can even use a post-it in your book to write down things you need! Remove it when you’re heading to the store.
- New Restaurants Around Town — I don’t know about you, but every time I see a new place in town I want to try it! I may see it on my Facebook feed or hear about it at work, and I always make a mental note to check it out. Make a spread with all of the new restaurants around town and mark them when you do try them.
- Tea & Coffee Ratings — I’m newly obsessed with teas and want to try them ALL, but some are a lot better than others. Keep track of your favorites on one spread, so you know which ones are your favorites (and which ones are not).
- Coffee Shops & Go-To Orders — track new coffee shops you try out and write down what you order. Try new drinks and keep up with your favorites.
- Ice cream / Froyo / Dessert tracker — list your beloved desserts and ice cream flavors. You can also rate specific dessert shops and write down your go-to flavors.
- Cocktail Recipes — write down your favorite cocktail recipes and ones you want to try!
- Food Trucks — track your favorite food trucks and their weekly or monthly schedule.
- Special Diet Food Ideas (paleo, vegan, vegetarian) — if you’re thinking of changing to a particular diet, write down the restrictions and ideas for your meals and snacks.
- Meat Temperature Cooking Times — do you want to cook your meat perfectly? Keep a reference sheet with the temperatures for “done” meat. You can even write down the specifics of your favorite meat-cooking recipes (Reverse Sear is the best FTW).
- Spice Collection — make a list of the spices you own, so you don’t repeat-buy them next time you’re at the store. You can even list out the expiration dates (especially if you’re adding them to new containers).
- Restaurant Nightly Specials — track the specials, happy hours and offers at your favorite local restaurants!
PRO TIP: Eat up more goodies in this How-To Post (it’s the most popular post on the website).
Food is finished! Time for hobby ideas and then my personal favorites (more on that later).
Hobby
Want to find the hobby that’s right for you? Let’s discover some hobby ideas together.
- Hobby Tracking — are you looking to start a hobby? Maybe to relieve some stress? Make a tracker
to monitor how much time you’re actually devoting to learning your new hobby. - Activities for Boredom — this list can be for your bored kids or for YOU! Write down things to do when you’re bored.
- Inspirational Accounts — you’ll find a TON of inspiration on Instagram (or online, or even from a trip to Hobby Lobby) for any hobby you’re looking to pick up. Write down their usernames for when you’re in a rut.
- Top Blog Posts — if you’re a blogger or content creator, check your analytics to find what posts perform the best for you.
- Lettering — practice lettering drills IN your journal and you’ll be surprised how quickly you’ll develop your own lettering style.
- Collectibles — do you keep a collection of anything? Write down the items you collect and add any details when you get new additions!
- Social Media Trackers — track your follower count each week or month.
- Knitting / Crocheting — keep up with yarn colors, brands, patterns and progress. Track when you knit and learn how much time each project actually takes.
- Instagram — plan your Instagram feed, track your best performing posts, and the best times to post (Instagram business accounts help with this). To get more followers, you should do some Instagram hashtag research and list your top tags!
- YouTube — write out YouTube video ideas or your favorite YouTube accounts. You should also keep up with your own top-performing videos to see what your audience likes best.
But wait! Here's 10 more ideas for you...
- Theme Parks & Roller Coasters — if you’re a fan of theme parks, make a list of parks you’ve visited and your favorite roller coasters and rides.
- Foreign Language Phrases — write down common phrases in the foreign language you’re learning. Or make a spread like “I Love You” in 30 languages.
- Hiking Trails — track the trails you want to hike (or trails you have hiked) and add ratings. Rate the difficulty, how you felt, who you hiked with, and the views.
- Fishing / Hunting — record what type of fish you caught, what type of bait you used, and any special moments on your fishing trips (same for hunting!).
- Farming — keep up with your planting dates, cost of your crop, the success of the crop compared to previous years, and interested buyers.
- Golf Scores / Courses Played — I come from a golfing family and my dad’s bucket list goal was to play golf in every state in the U.S. Unfortunately we lost him before he could make that goal, but this would be SUCH a cool thing to track in your bullet journal if you’re a golfer too!
- Snapchat Score — this was absolutely a suggestion from my teenage brother (and he’s pretty smart)! Make a page about Snapchat and track your score.
- Gardening — research what to plant and make a blueprint of your garden before you plant anything! Track when you plant, water times, and when it all starts to grow!
- Local Birds & Wildlife — track when and where you see specific birds and wildlife around your home!
- Dances to Learn — these can be fun hip-hop type dances or ballroom dances for your wedding. I think you can learn pretty much any dance on YouTube now.
Now: on to some of my personal favorite journal ideas!

- Emergency Medical Numbers — write down any doctor, police or emergency numbers, and keep them in one place.
- Paint Swatches — anytime you buy a new shade of paint for your home, keep the swatch and tape it into your journal! Label it with the room name you’re planning on painting, as well as where you bought the paint. You’ll now have a cool master list if you ever need a refresh or sell your house!
- Konmari Checklist — have you caught on to the Marie Kondo trend yet? Make (or print) a checklist to help you start your Komari journey.
- Zone Cleaning — map out your home on a spread in your journal, and make it a point to get certain areas clean by certain times. Read more about zone cleaning or grab a zone cleaning checklist here.

- Past Home Addresses (where you’ve lived) — if you’ve moved around a lot in the past few years, you may need to keep a list of your past addresses. You may run into situations in the future (tax purposes, credit inquiries) where you need to know your past addresses.
- Real Estate & Home Values — if you own a home, you’ll get a property tax bill each year with your estimated home’s worth. You could also check Zillow.com to get your home’s current estimate.
- Replacement Parts — some things in your home have special parts and the bullet journal is a perfect place to keep up with all of this — think specialty light bulbs, batteries, and filters.
- Garage / Yard Sales – Track garage sale dates that you see advertised around town OR, if you’re wanting to get rid of some things, make a list of potential garage sale items & the prices.
- New Pet Research — wanting a new puppy? Track your favorite breeds, pet name ideas, and all the supplies you’ll need to get your new best friend. Also, once you get them, you can make a spread for shots, puppy growth, potty training schedule, money spent and vet appointments.
- Home Remodeling — if you’re an HGTV fan or a big Pinterest user, you probably have some ideas to remodel your home. Keep them all on one page for inspiration when you’re looking for your next project.

Home ideas? Check. But we’re not done yet. Let’s discover more — we’re getting to the good stuff now.
Personal
Journal spread ideas that reflect the unique YOU!
- Goals and Resolutions — write down personal goals and any resolutions you have made for yourself. Writing down goals is your first step to achieving them! If you want a fun way to keep track of yearly, quarterly and monthly goals, try the Goal Grid.
- Funny Things — jot down things that make you laugh! Write down your favorite funny quotes memories and get ready to belly laugh anytime you flip to the page.
- Ideal Day — what does your ideal day look like? Record your daily schedule, but also write in how your ideal day would actually look from the time you wake up to the time you go to sleep. The next step is to work towards making EVERY day your ideal day. 😊
- Facts About Me — this is a fun way to make a spread with unique facts about YOU!
- Acts of Kindness — write down things you could do to show kindness to others — try putting a grocery cart back for someone, buying for the person behind you at Starbucks, writing a “just because” card, etc. Now, act on your list and make the world a better place!
- Self-Care Ideas — list your favorite self-care ideas. When you’re ready to treat yourself and need some ideas, check the list.
- Friend Contact Calendar — sometimes as adults, we lose touch with some of our oldest friends. Write down the last time you talked to your friends and make sure not to let too much time pass until the next time. This applies to family, parents, and grandparents too. 👵
- Bucket List — if you had no limits, what would you ultimately want to achieve during your lifetime. Where would you visit? What would you want to see or do? Put your dreams on paper.
- Shopping — track your shopping trips. Write out all your new items, where you bought them, and the price. If you end up falling in love with those new leggings, you’ll now remember where they came from!
- Personality Spread — take a personality test, like the Meyers Briggs or Enneagram test, and make a spread based around that personality type.
You might be wondering: are there more? Yes! 22 to be exact!
- Mental Health — do yourself a favor and check-in on your mental health from time to time. When you’re not happy, ask yourself why. Just writing these things down can have a major impact on how you actually feel.
- Mood Tracker — keep track of your mood each day (or throughout each day) and record any highs and lows. Instagram is a fun place to find #moodtracker inspiration.
- Favorite Stores — make a list of your favorite spots to shop online, locally or in big cities. If you ever make a trip, you’ll now know where you want to return. And if anyone ever asks you for gift card ideas… Boom! You have all your ideas written down.
- Wish List — what types of items do YOU want for your birthday or special occasion? If you’re like most of us, you have no clue. But if you keep a list all year long, you’ll know what to suggest! 😉
- Gratitude — daily gratitude is a beautiful thing and it will increase your happiness level. Write down what you’re grateful for and you’ll realize how blessed you actually are!

- Fashion — reflect on your favorite outfits (ones you own or ones you see in everyday culture).
- What I Wore / Outfit Tracker — keep up with what you wear daily, so you’re not repeating too many of your outfits in a short amount of time!

- Currently — a “Currently” section is a fun spread idea to keep track of your current favorite things over a certain time period. You can include these in weekly or monthly spreads, or make a whole page devoted to your favorite things. I like to keep track of things I’m: loving, eating, watching, listening to, and cooking (example).
- Horoscopes — write down your horoscope and everything related to your sign!
- Hair Maintenance — do you have high maintenance hair like me? Keep a list of your favorite products and hair care ideas in a spread. Also, keep up with salon appointments — jot down what you got done, when and where.
- Skincare Routine — make note of everything you use for skin care and track any changes when trying out or adding new products to your routine.
- Check It Out — make a spread based on things you want to “Check out.” We’re constantly being bombarded with advertisements and it’s hard to decipher what we really want or need. Make this list and take the time to check out what you really want to buy.
- Things I Love — write down the things you love… or doodle them. 😍
- Bad Habits to Break — record your bad habits, then decide which one to tackle first. Also, make a habit tracker for the things you’re NOT doing — this could be just as motivational to create good habits.
- Capsule Wardrobe — write down (or draw out) the items that would be in YOUR capsule wardrobe.
- Online Dating — if you’re single and using online dating apps, you might just want to track the dates you’ve been on and whether or not you’d go on a second one!
- Video Games Bought / Play Time — this could be for the kids OR you. Jot down video games you’ve bought and record when you play them. See how much time you’re actually spending on certain games or track your stats and milestones with a video game spread.
- Community Service — track how often you do community service. Track your hours worked, where and why you worked, and your experience.
- Waiting On… — create a list of things you are waiting on (e.g. package deliveries, phone calls, emails, etc.).

How do you feel? Those ideas should really make you happy, so make sure to try them!

- MLM Sales — if you’re part of an MLM (multi-level marketing) company, your bullet journal may be the perfect place to keep up with potential clients and sales. It can also act as a CRM to track the last time someone bought, so you can contact them if it’s been too long!

Excellent job! We’re almost done, but don’t skip the Travel ideas below — you’ll regret it if you do. 😇
Travel
Don’t forget to pack your journal.

- Weekend Getaway Ideas — have a long weekend coming up? Make a list of fun destinations — within driving distance — for quick weekend getaway ideas.

- Packing Lists — make a general packing list you can reference whenever packing for a big trip OR make a specific packing list for a special trip, like a ski trip or cruise.

- Map of Places You’ve Traveled — print or draw out a map of the U.S. (or your country) or the world, and mark where you’ve been. You can also make a list of your adventures.

- Gas Consumption — my dad used to keep a small notebook in his truck and calculated his miles per gallon every single time he got gas. Your car may keep up with that kind of thing now, but in case it doesn’t, you may want to track how much gas your car is using and the cost per fill-up!
But here’s the kicker: we have another whole category below!
PRO TIP: Want to learn how to use all these ideas? Here’s the ultimate guide. 👍

Awesome one Kimberly! All it to the list for the next update. You rock!
This is great! I didn’t realize I need some of these in my journal lol! I’ll definitely be adding many of these ideas.
You’re right, I went a little overboard with my hashtag spread. 🤣
Such great things on this blog ❤️
Thanks for reading Britney!
You’re layouts are so helpful and inspirational. Thank you for sharing with us!
Glad you are becoming a better journaler Cheryl!
Great ideas!
Thank you for an absolutely incredible resource and source of inspiration!
Thanks Anna!
I LOVE this post! Between your graphic I downloaded and a bookmark at this post – I can’t “complain” that I can’t think of a non-planner spread to work on each week in my bullet journal! Thanks for all the time and effort you have put into all you do to encourage and support us and our own bujo journeys!
Haha, yes, you definitely can’t complain anymore! This should inspire you for a long, long time…and thank you for the sweet words.😊
This is so well planned out! I’ll have to keep things bookmarked next time I’m working in my journal for ideas! THANK YOU
Thanks Sabrina! Yup, this is the post to bookmark for easy access.
I can’t wait to peruse all of the layout ideas! Thank you!
This is great and I’ve been doing it just long enough to know I don’t have to do all of it. I’ve been looking at doing “morning routine” and “self care tool kit” spreads too.
Those are great ideas Renee! My morning routine is WAY too long 😂.
Thank you so much for this. I come back to this list when I feel like I have a creative brain block and it helps me get started again.
Really cool. Thanks for sharing Ginger!
I am SO thrilled to have found you! I am still learning, but you have such inspiration!
Thank you for ALL you do!!!
Welcome Bette! (and I love your cute pup too).
This page is SO useful!! Full of great ideas 🙂
Glad you like it Shanna. I’ll keep updating it with more ideas, so check back in from time to time.🙂
I just received my door hanger pro and LOVE it! The lists of all these layout ideas has really opened my eyes to even more spreads and trackers to make that I’ve never thought of. Thank you so much Whitney! Love your work!
Yay! I love hearing about the Door Hanger in action! So happy you love it.
Loved the video with the new monthly spread for April. I do have a question though. Why do we #jy13 when it’s week 14 of the year. This trips me up every week. Thanks!!
Thanks Janey! Ummm I’m just going by Fridays. I guess didn’t think of that. But entering this week isn’t necessary with the hashtag since the giveaway this week is through the widget.
This is so complete and inspirational.Thank you for all those detailed items. My sister is intrigued to read and use them too.
So glad you enjoyed it Sepideh and thanks for passing it along to your sister!
I am so happy I found your blog!!! Thanks to you I will never have a creative block again😊
I’m happy you’re here Kaitlyn! Haha, yes there are a lot of ideas that will surely keep you busy for a while.
I love your journaling ideas. I do not seem to have time to do all of the things I want to in my journal. I want to learn lettering and learn more about how to doodle. I plan to retire soon so I will have lots of time – I hope!!!!
Thanks Delinda! I’m obsessed with lettering and doodling! Here is a quick doodling how-to post that should help. 👍
Great blog post with awesome spread ideas. Looking forward to making some of these ideas happen for my journal.
Awesome Jane. Let me know how it goes (or better yet share on social media for us all to see)! 😃
Wow, what an incredible list! I’m trying to break out of my perfectionist need to have my journal in order, so I’ll have to try some of these.
Sounds like a plan Misa. I love adding a random theme spread throughout all my new journals.
I just bought my first journal this weekend! I’ve been printing dot paper to practice on and decided to jump on in with a dot journal. So very excited and nervous but have a ton of guidance here in this post! Thank you!!!
Don’t be nervous Misty! You should see my first journals — they were a MESS! Just have fun with it and embrace the inevitable mistakes. That’s what makes it so fun.
A lot of Ideas and I’m not so “pro” as you. Hope to be as good as all fo you are one day 🙂
Just “do you” Barbara. Remember, the bullet journal is all about flexibility — you’re supposed to make mistakes and add pages out of order. Just have fun with it. No need to be a Pro.😁
As a newbie in both billet journaling and to this blog, I am amazed. I have used several of your layouts and have learned so much already from you. All I can say is thank you.
You’re so welcome Nita. Stay tuned, I have some big plans in the works for 2019.
Whitney
Thank you for sharing your ideas and talents for our journals along with your encouragement. You make journaling fun and productive 😃❤️
Anything for you Lori 😉. I love hearing you’re having fun and please keep me updated on your Journal YOU course progress.
Whitney is the most down-to-earth letterer on the planet! Very approachable, kind and did I mention TALENTED!? Works a full-time job, full-time mom to her little brother, and still gives careful time and attention to her lovely lettering craft/business. She is the REAL DEAL guys. Love her.
That’s SO nice Jill. Thank you for the kind words. 😊
Thank you for the inspiration!
I am very very new to the whole planner world…just starting from the very beginning just seems really intimidating and, if I’m honest, kinda expensive….what to do??
I hear you Danielle. It can all seem a bit daunting. All you need to get started though is a pen and paper, which are pretty cheap these days. Check out this Supplies page for ideas and prices.
Love all the ideas as I am new to bullet journals and am still looking for new ideas. Thanks for all your wonderful ideas.
You’re welcome Joyce, enjoy!
You are hands down my top bullet journal resource! If I ever need ideas or inspiration, I know I will find them with you!
Awe, thanks Kathi. I really appreciate that. If you haven’t already make sure you go the Free Spread Shop and join the Vault. Tons of ideas in there.
I can’t wait to delve into the home section!
Love this! 💜💜
There are so many awesome ideas! Thanks for making such a comprehensive list!!!!
Thanks for stopping by Haley.
I really like your style of journaling
I am so glad I found you! I am setting up my first journal tonight. Overwhelming and exciting at the same time. Although I am a hardcore Bama Fan, Auburn’s game tonight was well worth an early live drawing! Congrats to the Tigers!! Would love to win all of this, as I have a pen and a journal. Haha.
Haha. I forgive you Emily for being a Bama fan 😂. Don’t be overwhelmed, you got this girl!
Thanks Whitney you’re the best!
I love the list of journal layout ideas! I use my journal for productivity 98% of the time, but occasionally I like to include something for fun and this list is going to come in handy. More creative time is one of my development goals for 2019. I look forward to Sunday’s Journal You live draw sessions. Thank you so much for all of your generosity and willingness to share your creativity and talent.
You’re so welcome Kristal. It’s always a smart idea to save some time for yourself to let your creativity shine through on theme spreads.
I love that you compiled and shared this! I downloaded it right away and have already referenced it several times for ideas!!
Super cool Sarah! I like to print my own version out too. It comes in handy. 😉
You are so creative! I always pick up new ideas from you. Thanks for helping me out.
Thanks Ruth. I really appreciate that. You can always learn more (for free) in the Kickstart Challenge!
I could just look at the picture at the beginning of this post. It’s probablygot 3 hournal’s worth of topics, if not more, listed there.
What has always amazed me is how people can write so straight, with different sized letters and fit it on pages so well.
About the ideas? They’re awesome. I had to scroll past the specifics because it’s too overwhelming right now. When things settle down and I can sit down for more than 5 minutes, I can’t wait to be able to really dive in and get started. I have the order of the first few pages in place, but this will come in handy when figuring out the best method to carry it out.
The fact that you already divided them into categories takes out a lot of the guess-work. Thank you!
Thanks Rachel! As far as my straight writing goes, I cheat with a laser guide sometimes… and the dot grid helps of course. 😀
Love the Tom-Bow color guide! Thanks!
Yay! Thanks, I definitely needed it to organize my pens! haha
Thanks for the list. I’m new at Bullet Journaling and other than monthly, weekly, and daily layouts, I haven’t come up with anything else to put into my Journal.
Glad you found some inspiration Angela!
This list is amazing!! There are so many ideas I would never have thought of but are so useful – since I often make lists in my journal to brainstorm for upcoming events or things I want to do. Brilliant!!!
Hey Shari! Make a list of the lists you wanna make! haha!! This is my WHOLE list of lists 🙂
So many ideas. I don’t know where to start.
There are a lot Jackie. I would start with a hobby or family spread. You can’t go wrong there 👍
Wow! I love this list. There are so many that I want to use. I’m going to do a spread in my journal of my favorites so I don’t have to go through the list when I want them! Thanks so much for helping us with our journaling.
Awe, thanks Cheryl. Send me a pic of your ‘favorites’ spread when you finish it. I’d love to see it. 👏
I am brand new to bullet journaling and your blog is AMAZING, thank you so much!!!
Thanks so much Wendy! I’m so glad you’ve found some inspiration!
This site has totally changed my bujo. I absolutely love all the hard work that you have poured into this site. I do not think I would have stuck with bullet journalling without your guidance. Thank you for all you do!
Hi Katheryn. Thanks for all the kind words. You should check out this Facebook spot for more guidance. Thanks again.
I love how comprehensive this list is! I never would have thought of some of these!

One word. Amazing. Seriously, one of the most valuable post I’ve seen in a LONG time. Thank you!
😉Anytime Chris. Let me know how your journaling progresses.
