Bullet Journal

Recently I have had a little extra time on my hands..hello Easter holidays. So I chose to spend this time efficiently and organise my life/home/routine/go to the gym.. HAHA I wish. Instead I found myself sucked into Netflix binges and hours of YouTube time. I often get up in the morning with grand plans of productivity to find myself 4 hours later having caught up in the very busy lives of Mr Selfridge dreaming of lunches in the Palm Court with Lady Loxley.

In my YouTube vat I discovered a new way of organising work/life in the form of a Bullet Journal. Hands up if you have heard of this, if not you need to get yourself onto YouTube and spend hours in the depths of which pen causes the least amount of bleeding and all the washi tape goodness. Drool.

I will admit that I am an absolute stationery addict. Therefore this type of organisation appeals to me so much. However I will admit, the idea of bullet journalling is not new. The basic idea is something I already did in my previous diary/organiser. However on discovery of a new community, I quickly took the opportunity to order myself a brand new notepad, and create yet another new planner for this year (only my 4th so far..whhooops!). I will admit that my bullet journal has been the most fun to update and I love pinteresting new ideas for collections to link around my daily to do lists and I love the idea of monthly trackers.

The BuJo I chose is the Leuchtturm 1917 which appears to be the BuJo of choice, in Lemon Yellow. Which looks very green in these pictures. I chose dotty lines, although I think on reflection I would have preferred the square lines.
Have you fallen into the bullet journalling hole? Do you love it? Which BuJo do you use? Any spreads you would recommend?

Let me know opinions.... or alternatives :)
