Open your journal and always know what to make next, with ideas, themes and spreads ready to go.
Overview
This journal ideas printable kit is for every moment you open your journal and draw a blank on what to write or sketch. It holds 26 pages: 100 page ideas sorted into 10 categories, a guide to getting started, theme ideas for each month, a page for planning your journal and 20 spread templates ready to use. You get the PDF in US Letter and A4 as an instant download, and nothing is shipped.
Inspiration and finished layouts, all in one calm, matching set.
How the journal ideas kit keeps you inspired
The idea pages offer 100 topics to tick off, ranging from your core values and a self-care menu to a month without shopping, a dream road trip or a page of funny family quotes.
A soft theme for every month, such as a spring reset in March or cozy season in October, keeps your pages fresh all year without planning from zero. When you would rather skip drawing a layout, 20 templates are ready to print, including a monthly calendar, a weekly spread, a year in pixels, a savings tracker and a sleep log. Nothing is dated, so each template suits any month and can be printed again whenever you like.
Who this kit is for
- New journalers eager to begin but unsure which pages to create
- Bullet journal fans hunting for fresh spread ideas and monthly themes
- Busy people who prefer printing a finished layout to drawing one by hand
- Anyone wanting a creative, cozy journaling habit that shifts with the seasons
Design and printing
- Minimal white pages with soft blush pink accents that save ink
- Wide margins, so a home printer won't cut anything off
- Portrait pages in US Letter (8.5 by 11 inches) and A4 (210 by 297 mm)
- Undated, so every template fits any month
- Slip it into a binder, clip it to a board or have a print shop spiral bind it
