Stationery Recommendations
You’ll need some supplies to create your April cover pages, so let’s talk about that. The world of stationery can be overwhelming and confusing, and I’m here to help you get only great supplies you’ll love using.
Check out some of my recommendations:
- Fineliners. These are the basis for every Bullet Journal page and your faithful companions in the world of journaling. My top recommendation is the Sakura Pigma Micron, which also comes in different nib sizes, allowing for a variety of line thicknesses.
- Brush pens. Brush pens are perfect for adding brush lettering to your Bullet Journal pages, drawing, or even adding color. I would recommend the Tombow Fude brush pen for a smaller brush tip and the Tombow Dual Brush for a larger brush tip and significantly more colors.
- Stencils. Stencils are a great way to add decorative or functional elements to your Bullet Journal pages quickly. And unlike stickers, stencils are reusable. For Spring-themed pages, I think you would love these beautiful floral stencils.
- Markers. These are a must-have if you’re a fan of colorful pages. The choice of these depends on the colors you like. My favorites are Zebra Mildliner and Tombow Twin Tone.
Now that you have all your supplies ready, let’s get to finding an inspiration for your April Bullet Journal setup.

Beautiful cover page, and it's such a fun Spring theme idea, perfect for April! I also really like how Natasha added a related quote page to the other side of the cover page.
I love sushi, so of course, I had to try to make it my monthly theme. As you can see, I made the doodles emote, and it really opened so many possibilities to make each doodle different.
If you feel like having less is more your style, then going for a minimalist approach might be exactly what you need. As you can see on this cover page, just because it's simple doesn't mean it can't look stunning.
This black and white theme is absolutely stunning, and it's such an unusual idea for a theme! I absolutely love it and the stippling effect used to create it.
Adding a scrapbook feel to your pages is just as fun as drawing in your Bullet Journal. So here is a great example of a crafty theme - get the different types of paper you have at your disposal and get crafting.
Drawing inspiration from the holidays that happen during the month is a great idea! And April is all about Easter, so why not bring it to your Bullet Journal pages as well?
This is not your typical theme, but I love how creative the idea is! Plus, these colors match and look so great together.
Watercolor is an incredible material, and you can create so many elaborate patterns and designs with it. So, you can definitely just use this as an idea for your entire monthly theme.
Here is another fun theme idea, and you can go with this one in so many different ways! I love that the creator made a Dutch door for this; it really makes it stand out.
Gilmore Girls is definitely a staple show, so if you're a fan, it would make sense to use it as your cover page inspiration. I love how from all the things this creator chose Rory's bulletin board for the cover spread.
Umbrellas and rain might seem like a dull and grey idea, but you can play around with it so much and make it a bright and colorful cover page if you want to.
I love this theme idea and the soft and dreamy colors of the spread. The city really loos absolutely dreamy.
I think most of us grew up with Disney movies, and bringing your childhood to your cover page is lovely for any month of the year. This cover page is a great example!
