Simple bullet journal weekly spreads

Minimalist bujo ideas to ease your way into weekly pages.

Line down center

A line down middle with date highlighted in center. Easy peasy. (via @bujobooster)

A few grids

You can use lines sparingly, yet still creates distinct sections. (via @mysocalledbujo)

Simple colored checkboxes

A touch of color just as a simple date header and for your checkboxes can make your page look really pretty. (via @maryberrystudy)

Date on bottom

Most bullet journal weekly spread ideas have the date listed at the top of the designated section, but in this one, the day of the week marks the top border and the date as the bottom border. (via @bujo.by.marieke)

Square grid

This minimalist-inspired bullet journal spread doesn’t include the dividers between the dates, and has a nice doodle design as the header as well as the focal point in the center. (via @thebujobuzz)

Bold stamp or stencil

A simple way to make your date stand out with a stamp or letter stencil* so you know exactly when your tasks or events are set to happen. (via @bulletbyjulia)

Easy horizontal

A straightforward way to get things done. (via @mylife.mylove.mypassion)

Alternating text spaces

This one provides variety and consistency at the same time. The placement of each day’s tasks alternates on one side, but is grouped together vertically on the other. (via @nini.journal)

Washi tape corners

I thought this was such creative placement of beautiful washi tape*, since most times people lay them straight horizontally or vertically. (via @bujo.birdie)

Layout template set up

If you look closely at this spread, the filler information is not straight on the page but on cut-outs. If you do like a specific layout, make it into a bullet journal printable, or draw it once and log your weekly tasks on fun, colorful post its* instead. (via @nohnoh.studies)

Bullet journal weekly spread ideas with color

In this section are weekly pages that are a bit more vibrant.

Squares

I like the square layout for the daily bullet journal tasks as well as the highlighting to make distinct sections of your lists. (via @christina77star)

Highlighted to-do list sections

This one uses colorful highlighting* to make a cool, quirky-looking spread. (via @alexandra_plans)

Alastair to do list

This spread takes the Alastair method developed for the bullet journal future log and adapts it for the weekly bullet journal set-up. (via @happilyeveafter_)

Weekly tasks plus a separate goals section

This one has different sections for goals versus daily tasks. Don’t you love how all the colors work so well together here? (via Organized Mom)

Rainbow triangles

If you like color, then here’s a neat way to incorporate all the tones of the rainbow without it being unicorn vomit overkill. (via @rainbowbulletjournal)

Neon

Such a cheerful spread to me. I’d say all my bullet journal mood trackers would be on the happy end for that week. Also, AWESOME movie*, not that I’m biased since the voiceover actress Auli’i Cravalho and I share the same home state. (via @doodledaydarlings)

Creative shapes in weekly set up

Such unique, out of the box layouts.

Comic book

A new perspective on way rectangular boxes are typically used in your bujo. And totally liking the comic book bullet journal font lettering. (via @rosekjournals)

Envelopes

Just changing the angle of one side of your rectangle gets you this spread, which reminds me of envelopes. (via @journalbydesign)

Triangular

This triangular layout just feels so right. #imsopunny (via @jenniifur)

Prism

Using a single point as one of the corners of your boxes gives you this nifty look. (via @lifebywhitney)

Spreading rays

Your daily logs all branch from a beautiful center focal point, kinda like rays of sunshine. (via @the.petite.planner)

Circles

The rims of the spaces for your daily tasks can be used as:

  • a habit tracker such as for tracking sleep in your bullet journal
  • an energy tracker to incorporate mental health in your bujo
  • a means to track fitness in your bullet journal

(via @lifebywhitney)

Octagons and hexagons

Using an eight-sided shape as pictured below gives you a bit more room, but using a six-sided shape is gaining popularity in bullet journaling. (via Pin source)

Segmented wheel

I thought this was a clever, out of the box way to organize weekly tasks. (via @teachplancraft)

Letters of days of week

A fat block version of the first initial of each day of the week become the outline of the space for your daily events and tasks. (via @lifebywhitney)

Christmas trees

Go festive with theme-inspired weekly set-ups, like this one that’s perfect for Christmas. (via @lifebywhitney)

Doodled horizontal timeline

You can also be strategic with doodles to create reference points for your daily to-do list. Follow a theme to create a cohesive landscape that still functions nicely for your needs. (via @teachplancraft)

Features to increase productivity

These spreads are both eye-appealing and very functional.

Separation of events from tasks

This is such an easy way to keep your events and appointments that are time specific separate from your running to-do list. (via Pin source)

Time tracker with color coding

Take note of how you use your time down to the hour with color coded time ladders like you see on the left. Also love the checkered table of the right side to record things such as your:

  • Food in your bullet journal
  • Finances in your bullet journal
  • Travel in your bullet journal
  • And other notes

(via @pen.paper.tape)

Time log

Adding the hours of the day to your daily spread will allow you to pinpoint time blocks to tasks on your to-do list or events. Easier and more likely to accomplish your goals when you can specifically designate time to your projects. (via @nohnoh.studies)

Daily task migration

Another great way to be more productive with your time is to set and track goals in your bullet journal. A daily assessment of your to-do list will for sure encourage you to become better at using your time wisely.

Your to-do list is probably a million items long, so breaking down what your top three goals each day are will help you prioritize your day’s activities. If you don’t get to a certain task in your day, you can migrate it to the following day. (via Pin source)

Overview of week in sectioned categories

It can also help to break down your day into important categories. A grid like this will make it so much easier to catch an overview of your entire week. (via @christina77star)
