One Page Bullet Journal Weekly Spread Inspirations
Planning your week with a Bullet Journal weekly spread doesn’t have to be complicated. Sometimes, all it takes is just one page to get everything organized and still leave room for creativity.
Over the years, I’ve found that 1 page weekly spreads are a game-changer—not only do they save space, but they also make the planning process faster and more fun.
Whether you’re short on time or just love a compact design, these layouts are flexible and easy to customize. Today, I’m sharing some of my all-time favorite one-page weekly spreads that have kept me inspired and on track!
When it comes to planning, the simplicity of a one-page weekly spread can be a game-changer for your Bullet Journal. This layout condenses your week into a single, organized space, making it easier to see everything at a glance.
Whether you’re jotting down appointments, tracking tasks, or just keeping an overview of your schedule, these compact spreads eliminate clutter and offer a straightforward approach to planning. They can also help you prolong the usability of your notebook, as they occupy half the space a typical weekly spread requires.
It’s also a great way to experiment with new designs since trying out ideas on one page feels less overwhelming compared to larger layouts.
Some weeks are busier than others, and these spreads are perfect for staying efficient when life gets hectic. They’re also a fantastic choice for anyone new to Bullet Journaling who wants to ease into weekly planning without overcomplicating the process.
As you can see, there are numerous benefits to trying out one-page weekly spreads. In this blog post, I’ve gathered a variety of layouts to inspire our next experiment.

Stationery Recommendations
But first, let’s talk about stationery since you’ll obviously need some for creating your weekly spreads.
So here are a few of my favorites that I’m sure you’ll love and find useful as well.
- Fineliners. These are the basics for every Bullet Journal page, perfect for drawing and doodling. I recommend Sakura Pigma Micron, which also comes in a set with different nib sizes, allowing you a variety of line thicknesses.
- Markers. If you want to add color to your pages, you’ll need some markers. Your choice will depend on what colors you like. My top choices are Zebra Mildliners and Tombow Twin Tone.
- Brush pens. To add beautiful brush lettering to your weekly spreads, you need a good set of brush pens. I recommend Tombow Fudensuke since they are smaller tips and pretty easy to master. If you’re looking for a larger brush pen and soemthing with tons of colors, you can’t go wrong with Tombow Dual Brush Pens.
- Stencils. These little helpers are great to allow you to set up your weekly spreads faster. I recommend these weekly spread stencils that are built specifically for your weekly pages.
Now that you’re ready to start planning, let me share with you some of my one-page weekly spreads.
One Page Weekly Spread Inspirations
I really haven’t realized how often I actually use one-page weekly spreads until it was time to write this post.
But you can’t blame me – they are so quick to set up! Plus, my Nuuna journal features a smaller dot grid and larger pages, allowing me to have plenty of space on each page to plan everything that needs to be planned.
That’s another trip. If you have a journal larger than a standard A5, you can definitely benefit from using one-page weekly spreads.
Either way, I’ve gathered 15 layouts, so let’s take a look inside and see which one will give you some inspiration for your own unique weekly layout.
Stationery Themed Weekly
Let’s start with probably my favorite weekly spread. I think the design and colors together look so good!
I also used stamps to help me create daily headers, which was a great way to speed up the process of creating this layout. And using brush pens to highlight every other line in the daily box instead of actually creating daily boxes helped me to avoid using a ruler, which is always a win in my book.
I don’t have the link to the exact stamps I used, but I found these stamps that are also super cute!
Photography Themed Weekly Spread
Next is this horizontal weekly spread, and as you can see, it still has plenty of space to add anything else you might need, such as trackers or a notes section.
The annoying part about this format is that you need to calculate how to divide your page evenly into 7 sections, but you have to do it just once, and then you’ll have your reference.
Book Weekly Spread
Books were one of my themes in 2020, and here is a weekly layout I created that month.
I took a more flexible approach, as you can see; even the daily boxes are not uniform. But I think it has its own charm, and it allowed me not to stress too much about the measurements.
Minimalist Weekly Spread
Here is a weekly layout for the minimalist kind of theme, and as you can see, I did my best to add as many extra things and decorations as possible.
But, because I didn’t measure and sketch it properly, there are a few mistakes here. I wonder if you can spot them. Either way, it was a weekly spread that looked pretty good and helped me to stay on top of ALL the things.
Simple Horizontal Weekly
If you want to have a page with no decoration and nothing extra, here is an example of one. As you can see, each daily box has ample space.
I did leave some space at the bottom to add a little quote and keep the layout on theme with the monthly setup. But you can easily divide it and add more space to your daily boxes instead.
B5 Journal Weekly Spread
I haven’t used a B5 journal for a long time, but when I did, there was barely any need for creating two-page weekly spreads; just one page had enough space for everything I needed.
To speed up the setup for this week, I used stickers from my favorite shop, RoseKPaperCo, and I highly recommend checking it out – she has a wide selection of beautiful, decorative, and practical stickers.
Incomplete Weekly Spread
Sometimes what happens is that you skip a few days but then get it together and realise you do need a weekly layout to stay on top of your tasks.
That’s the beauty of Bullet Journaling: you don’t have to wait for Monday or the first of the month to get started.
This layout is exactly what happened. I started planning from Tuesday, and as you can see, there is no space for the weekend. Since I realized that often my weekend boxes are empty, I might as well not create them.
Sushi Weekly Spread
Even if you create a one-page weekly layout, you still can decorate it and make it on theme with your current monthly setup.
Yes, it will take away space from other sections you could use, so be sure you first settle for yourself what your weekly spread non-negotiables are. For me, at that point, just daily boxes were all I needed.
Sectioned Weekly Spread
This layout appears very structured to me, and as you can see, I have even divided the daily boxes into separate sections.
I don’t really understand what that meant now, but at the moment, I bet I found it useful, so there it is.
Free Style Weekly Spread
Another way to approach your weekly spreads is by simply creating headers. Especially with the horizontal pages like this, a header is enough to divide your weekly spread into sections.
And as you might already know, for me, anything that doesn’t require me to use a ruler is a win!
Square Journal Weekly
Square journals are super fun, and I really enjoyed using them! They provide ample space and feature an interesting format that encourages you to be more creative with your layout setup.
This weekly spread is not very creative, but as you can see, because of the size, it has so much space for all the things you might need in your weekly spread.
Productive Weekly Spread
I love how with weekly spreads you can really customize them and add any elements you need, depending on your goals.
This weekly spread is mostly about productivity, as you can see each day as a little tracker of the time I worked, and there is a separate productivity tracker, which is basically just me evaluating how I felt about the productivity level of my days.
Floral Weekly Log
Flowers is the theme that I used a lot in my very first experimental Bullet Journal in 2018, and this is one of the layouts from that time.
As I mentioned before, often weekends are not when I use my Bullet Journal a lot, so in this weekly spread, I also chose not to create a section for Saturday or Sunday.
Stationery Weekly Layout
A fun and easy way to experiment with your weekly setup is to adjust how you create your daily boxes.
This is a great example of that; instead of just rectangular boxes, I turned them into different pieces of paper and notes.
Aesthetic Weekly Log
This was one of my favorite weekly spreads because I think the colors look so good, and the combination of stickers and washi tape really created that gentle aesthetic look to it.
It’s also a fun way to create headers – instead of just stickers, you use stickers on top of washi tape, using washi tape almost as a banner for your little title.
Here are just a few of my one-page weekly spreads, and I hope you managed to find something here that clicked with you.
