Do any of you CBers keep an art journal or bullet journal? Do you take really nice notes or have decorative planners? Here is the place to post pictures or talk about anything of this nature.
I've seen bullet journaling all over Pinterest and tumblr, so today, I made a DIY bullet journal with the help of a bookbinding tutorial and free printable dot paper, and I'm going to start filling it up. When this thread shows up I can post pictures, and if you're interested, show you how I made it.
Thanks for reading!

@Bluebird,
What is a "bullet journal"? It sounds like fun!
Off Topic: LOL my captcha is "wipe".

I just started a bullet journal!

Ooh, awesome! I have a bullet journal that I got for super cheap (Blue, I'll send you the store name) but I don't know what to use it for. . . any ideas that aren't planning? xD I'll post my spreads when I start them :))

Oh, yay! Thank you!!
For spread ideas, I saw a cool one that was "who i am" on the first page, and "who I want to be" on the second page. There was a sketch of the person on both pages, and around them was little notes and characteristics and things. I'm also I love with the idea of just a page full of memories. Also:
-shows, movies, books, music that you're currently listening to, or that you want to watch/read
-a wishlist
-mood trackers
-a page full of texts/quotes/things your friends/fam have said
I can't think of anything else right now. And yeah, the one I made isn't the best quality, but it's good practice for when I start a real bullet journal in 2018. Here's a picture of the outside and blank inside:

YES! I have a bullet journal, and I love it, because it helps me stay organized, I love planning, and it's just fun to decorate and stuff. The hardest thing for me is to explain it to someone who doesn't know what a bullet journal is. XD I'll post some pictures later.

I'm really proud of my history notes here; I've gotten really really into studygramming/blring lately!

Wow, those are super good! Your handwriting is gorgeous! I wish mine was that neat. I also love the font you used for heading, and that blue really gives it a nice splash of color without being overpowering. Great job!
(They are definitely something to be proud of, don't get me wrong, but I realized while reading it that this is one of the few places you hear people saying, 'I'm really proud of these notes I took!' XD)

Here's my November calendar spread:

That's really pretty! Mine doesn't have any decoration or anything, just the calender and a couple other things that I can't remember right now XD.
(November 24, 2017 - 2:26 pm)
Ooh, that's beautiful, Blue! I love it. I'll post a picture of my November spread later.
(November 24, 2017 - 2:51 pm)
I love it! The colors are so perfect!

Update: I asked my mom what I should do with my blank journal, and she told me that she'd be interested in bullet journaling too, so she suggested I make her one! And so without further ado, her are my spreads!
So in the first picture, in the top right corner is a picture of the bullet journal! It doesn't have too many pages because it was really cheap ($1.50!!) but it's super cute, and the pages are pretty thick— you just can't use marker. Underneath that is the key I use, and below that is a New Year's Resolution page. To the left is the future log, which is basically just a huge calendar.

Here's the second photo. In the top left is a habit tracker, which is super cool! Do any of you use habit trackers? To its left is an appointment calendar, for listing like birthdays and appointments and stuff; next to that is just the month cover page. In the middle is a mini calendar; I also put a future log there as well, but the layout app cut it out. . . Bottom left are pages for garden and recipie ideas, since my mom really likes gardening and cooking, and then the last two photos are the weekly and daily spreads!

I love that, September! It's so neat and clean! And yes, I do use habit trackers, and I think they're awesome! They help me a lot.
