Bullet Journal Guide + Dotted Journal + Pre-made Bullet Journal // free printables

Bullet Journal Guide header

Hello and welcome back to Let’s Gab About Books. I know it’s been awhile since I’ve made a printable for you all, but I hope you love this new Bullet Journal Guide, Pre-made bullet journal, and dotted notebook!

So, what exactly is a Bullet Journal anyway?

The creator, Ryder Carroll, describes it as “an analog system for the digital age that will help you track the past, organize the present, and plan for the future.” It’s basically a planner that you draw yourself, and that changes to fit your needs.

The Guide:

I made this bullet journal guide for you all to download, hoping that it will help you learn the basics of the bullet journal, and inspire you with how-to guides for faux calligraphy, banners, headers, and doodles. Everything is hand drawn (except for the fonts) by me!

Premade 3 month bullet journal:

This is for those of you who love the bullet journal method, but don’t have the time to draw out/create your own spreads. I used hand-drawn elements to put together a pre-made journal for you. This includes an index, future log, monthly log, and weekly spread.

    This is an awesome post! I’ve wanted to create a bullet journal for a while but I didn’t know where to start. Your guide is really helpful!

    Thank you for this amazing post! I printed the pre-made journal and the first part of your guide so I can practice for a couple weeks before I get a journal of my own. I love how simple but pretty you made the layouts. And I love writing lists/notes so I’m hoping this system works for me! You make the best guides 🙂
