Bullet Journal Simple Weekly Spread Ideas I Use
Some of the ways I keep my weekly bullet journal that works for me:
- Write out the days of the week and include the date and leave space for adding tasks
- Keep a space for daily gratitude.
- Add all weekly appointments, birthdays, anniversaries, or holidays on Sunday as you lay out the week
- Mark off items as completed each day.
- Items not completed can move the the next day; or alternatively leave them and simply mark them off as completed the next day.
- Add creative, fun, decorative stickers, washi tape or other embellishments
- Print out small photos from the week to add in as a way to preserve some memories.
- Keep it simple and make it work for you.
Advice for anyone new to bullet journaling is to just use what you have and don’t be afraid to experiment with new styles or supplies. It may take a while to find what works for you. I have been through several different styles, set ups and iterations in my bullet journal weekly spread. No doubt I will probably find new things to incorporate into my style as well.
