13 Fun Bullet Journal Weekly Spread Inspirations

A Bullet Journal weekly spread is more than a simple planner page; it’s your personal canvas for organization, creativity, and reflection.

Over the years, I’ve filled countless spreads with layouts, colors, and little details that helped me stay productive while making each week feel special. From minimalist grids to intricate doodle-filled designs, I’ve experimented with styles that balance function and creativity.

Whether you’re looking to simplify your planning, spark creativity, or try something completely new, these ideas can inspire your next BuJo weekly spread. Let’s explore some of my favorite layouts and the stories behind them to kickstart your week.

Month after month, we create weekly spreads to help us get organized and reach our goals. A weekly spread is really the working horse of my journal, where all the magic happens one step at a time every day.

The thing about your weekly spreads, though, is that your life changes, and what you need in a weekly spread can change, too, so it’s a good idea to try out different formats the moment you find that something is not working.

Plus, I find that it’s always fun to get creative with your weekly spread, which always motivates me to use it more.

That’s why I find that having inspiration for a weekly spread is a must—it will help you jot your creative muscles and create a weekly layout that will inspire and motivate you.

And if you need a quick weekly layout to start using right away, I have plenty of printables. Check the end of the post to learn how to get them!

Stationery Recommendations

Before diving into the weekly spreads, of course, I wanted to take a second to talk about stationery. After all, I believe having the supplies you love will help you create pages you like more easily and with more fun.

So here are a few of my top recommendations:

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 something 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.

Ok, now that we have all the supplies, let’s look at my weekly spreads and see if they can inspire your next weekly setup.

BuJo Weekly Spread Inspirations

I love looking back at my weekly spreads and old journals in general. It’s a good way to find long-forgotten formats and ideas that might be perfect for right now.

Also, I’ve always tried to make my weekly spreads different and experiment more with formats and decoration styles, so it was interesting to see how that part of my journey involved that.

I must say, after all these years, I have a pretty set style and format for my weekly spreads, and they are much less exciting. But looking back made me want to go back to experimenting more and being creative.

So let’s hope that these layouts will help you achieve the same!

Daffodil Weekly Spread

Flowers are a fantastic theme for any Bullet Journal page—they are always beautiful and work universally, no matter the season. There is a reason why they are some of the most popular ways to decorate your Bullet Journal pages.

Florals were one of the first themes I tried in my Bullet Journal, and this is one of those floral layouts.

In case you wonder what I used for creating this layout, it’s pastel Tombow Dual Brush pens. They were some of the first brush pens I bought, and they are still my favorite set, even though I only have a few of the colors left.

One Page Book Themed Weekly

If you have a larger journal or you just don’t need a lot of planning done, a one-page weekly spread could be perfect for you.

This weekly was created in my Nuuna, which is a bit larger than an A5, so I could fit anything I wanted on just one page.

Floral Bullet Journal Weekly Spread

Another example of a floral weekly spread. I love how with two pages you get so much space that you can fit all your planning needs and a big floral illustration.

This layout is also a testament to how powerful tutorials can be—I had no idea how to draw flowers, but I followed a tutorial, and it turned out pretty well, if I do say so myself.

Sushi Bullet Journal Weekly Spread

Sushi is a super fun theme, and I really enjoyed exploring it in my journal. Here is one of the weekly layouts I created with this theme.

Because these journal pages are larger than the usual A5, I had space to add a big illustration. Previously, it was the time when I got my Switch, and I was fighting the urge to go and play with it instead of working.

Houseplant Themed BuJo Weekly

Houseplants are a great theme to explore in your Bullet Journal—there are many you can draw, and each will look different depending on the shades of green you use. Plus, you can play around with the designs and colors of the pots as well!

This is also one of the rarer examples of a horizontal weekly spread. Looking back, it seems that most of my layouts follow a vertical format.

Rainbow Clouds Weekly Log

This is a weekly layout from the month when I really wanted things to be easy. I chose clouds as a theme, and they are pretty easy to doodle.

I’m not very proud of this theme; I think the clouds came out looking pretty boring. But I love the idea of using different colors for the daily boxes instead of actually drawing the daily boxes themselves.

Organized Weekly Spread

Wow, I absolutely forgot how organised I used to make my weekly spreads!

I have daily boxes, of course, but each one also has a section for the most important task of the day. There is also a separate to-do list just for chores. And I even had a to-do list for all the beauty things I wanted to do each week.

It all looks very useful, so I might want to try the same format again!

Simple Vertical Weekly Spread

This weekly layout might look elaborate, but it’s actually the easiest one to create—all you need to do is divide each page in half vertically and horizontally.

The different designs of the boxes create a sense of variety here, and these days, this is one of my favorite tricks, especially if I’m doing stationery or a back-to-school theme.

Minimalist Bullet Journal Weekly Log

I don’t usually do minimalist, grey colors and no doodling; it’s definitely not my style. And having a lot of white space gives me anxiety.

But sometimes, it’s good to step out of your comfort zone and push your boundaries. Plus, it’s a great choice for when you need a plan but don’t have the time for an elaborate weekly spread setup.

One Page Weekly Spread

One-page weekly layouts have been my jam lately. Here is a weekly spread I created for my photography themes setup.

Even though it’s just one page, you can still see how much extra space was not used. I should probably check out some extra sections in my old weekly spreads to see if any of them would be useful for me now.

Rose Bullet Journal Weekly Spread

This theme, unlike other floral weekly spreads, was not really about flowers. I tried to create a monthly theme based on the 1991 animated movie Beauty and the Beast, which is one of my favorite movies of all time.

But the best I could do for this theme was draw roses and use blue and yellow as the color scheme. I don’t think it reminds me that much of the movie, but it reminds me of the time I tried, and that is worth a lot.

Horizontal Weekly Spread

I wanted to add one more horizontal weekly spread to this list, and this layout was inspired by my favorite game of 2020 – Animal Crossing!

I think these characters are adorable, and even more so, they are all pretty easy to draw, so I had a total blast!

Stationery Themed Weekly Log

Last but not least is my weekly spread from 2025. That month, I did a different take on the stationery theme, with all doodles in black and white and a colorful pattern behind them.

And yes, not all these doodles have stationery themes, but let it go—I just drew what I felt like.

And there you go. I gathered thirteen different weekly layouts to show just a few of the things that can be done with weekly planning.
