diy: craft it

FIND INSPIRATION The first thing you need is supplies. Pens or pencils and a notebook work just fine. Leuchtturm, Moleskine and Rhodia all make great bulleted notebooks of all sizes. The internet has endless material for inspiration. Find what you like best, especially techniques that are within your artistic capabilities. I have taken inspiration from Boho Berry and AmandaRachLee on Youtube. I also use pins from Pinterest for more artistic inspiration.

MAKE IT WORK FOR YOU The best way to make a bullet journal work is to make sure you’re making a journal that suits what you need. During school, I use my journal as a planner, daily journal, notepad for meetings, and a stress reliever. Since the pages are blank, anything is possible. The most popular spreads, which are two or more pages that go together, are daily agendas, monthly overviews, or other kinds of schedules. So it’s up to you what you want to include, and it’s up to you how far youwant to go when it comes to structure, color, drawings, and difficulty.
