Bullet journaling or having a "bujo" is all the rage now a days! I absolutely love my bullet journal and ever since I've started it, I cant imagine myself stopping. Bullet journaling can be used for a number of things and is extremely helpful. If you're looking to start a bullet journal but feel a little stuck on where to start have no fear! Here are my 10 tips for starting a bullet journal.

1. Get A Journal You Like.

The journals I have always used are the brand Moleskine. Moleskine has all different size, shape, and colored journals. The one I'm using right now is just a simple white hard covered journal.

2. Find The Right Pens.

These are the pens I am currently using. These are the Paper Mate Ink joy Gel Pens and Stabilo fineliners. I recommend something that has a variety of colors and a fairly thin point.

3. Get Highlighters.

As of right now, I'm just using these very basic Sharpie highlighters that have a "smear guard" so they don't smear over the pens I use. I do want to invest in getting the highly recommended mildliners.

4. Get Washi Tape.

Washi tape is a great tool to use to decorate your journal. There is a HUGE variety of washi tape so GO NUTS with it!

5. Get Correction Tape.

I highly recommend getting correction tape rather than using a regular correction pen because it dries faster so you can write on it immediately after putting it down!

6. Get Some Inspiration.

My favorite places to go for bujo ideas are Pinterest and Youtube. You can also search on Instagram!

7. Be Fancy And Creative.

Take this time to work on some fancy lettering, brackets, borders, or doodles!

8. Find Your Own Format.

There are literally millions of different ways to format your journal! You can find a theme or you could switch it up depending on what kind of page you're doing!

9. Find Time.

I cannot stress this one enough! Find the time to do this! It will make a huge difference!

10. DON'T GIVE UP!

You're going to have the bullet journal of your dreams! Just don't give up on it!
