Stationery Recommendations
First, let’s talk about Bullet Journal supplies you’ll need to create weekly spreads.
When you buy new supplies, choose items that fit your style and aesthetics. Thankfully, many of these supplies are universal or come in many color options, so you can choose ones that match your style.
Here we go:
- Fineliners. Black fineliners are the bread and butter of my journal, and I canโt recommend them enough. Smooth, with very black ink, waterproof, and usually available in different tip sizes, fineliners will transform your weekly spreads! Some of my favorites are Faber Castell Pitt Artist and Sakura Pigma Micron.
- Markers. There are so many amazing markers to add color to your journal! My current favorites are Crayola Super Tips. Some other options I love are Tombow Dual Brush Pens and Zebra Mildliners.
- Rulers and stencils. When I first started journaling, I got these planning stencils, and they were a game changer!
- Washi tape. I don’t use this often, but at some point I got into it, and it’s amazing how easily washi tape can add a creative spark to your page, with no fuzz at all. For washi tape, checkย out Washi Tape Shop; they have all kinds of sizes and designs!
Ok, enough stationery talk; let’s move on to the main topic of this post: inspirations for a weekly spread to try in your Bullet Journal this December.
Bullet Journal December Weekly Spread Inspirations
Time to look at some inspiring weekly pages and get your creative juices flowing. Over the years of Bullet Journaling, I’ve created plenty of weekly spreads I’m excited to share.
Every creator has their own approach and theme idea for December, so I have gathered weekly spreads from different people.
That way, you can look at different ways to do it and pick the elements that you like to create your own unique weekly spread to use this December.
Let’s dive in!
Mind Map Weekly Spread
Starting with my own weekly spread. December is a very busy month, so I made a quick mind map to organize everything I needed to do that week. That way, I had a clear, organized to-do list and enough space on the second page to move tasks to days when I had time to complete them.
I still think it’s a useful technique for extremely busy, overwhelming weeks.
Botanical December Weekly Spread
Botanical elements always make great Bullet Journal page decor, and this is a great example of how you can keep drawing nature while customizing it for cold December weather.
The key, I think, is to use colder colors, a winter green rather than warm spring grass green, and seasonal winter greenery, like the nice tree branches this creator used.
Red December Weekly Layout
Red is such a cheerful color, and you can’t argue that it’s very closely associated with Christmas. So if you want to add a bit of holiday cheer, using red and a metallic pen is enough, like on this weekly spread.
I can see this creator used metallic Faber-Castell markers for the gold accents, and I had the same set; they are very good and juicy! However, if you want something that draws thinner lines, I recommend metallic Sakura Gelly Roll pens.
Harry Potter Weekly Spread
I don’t know about you, but for me, December is a magical month, so Harry Potter is definitely a perfect theme for that time. Here is a simple weekly spread for my Harry Potter December, focusing mostly on the house colors and a magical font.
It’s a good example of how to handle an elaborate theme without spending hours drawing complicated illustrations. The shortcut is to focus on small details, like colors and fonts, and maybe some simple doodles you can find in any idea.
December Weekly Log With Quote
This weekly spread is amazing, from the structure to the beautiful lettering; everything makes it so unique. And I especially love kraft paper. I think it really adds a cozy feel to the layout.
Winter Fashion Weekly Spread
Since December is already winter, a cozy spread with an illustration of a winter coat feels perfect. I especially love the colors the creator used here; they match so well and still feel cold.
Dutch Door December Weekly Spread
At first glance, this layout looks like a very simple Christmas weekly spread. But It’s actually a Dutch door spread! You can see the middle flap is actually cut out, and the rest of the week is probably on the other side.
Natasha is a very innovative creator, and her layouts always have some fun hidden features.
Cozy Home Weekly Spread
I love the cozy feel of this layout, created with kraft paper and photos of cozy apartments. I also loved that the creator used stamps on this page; it made the headers feel special.
Blackout Book Weekly Layout
I love the pages that are created on black paper. It really helps the colors to pop even more! Also, in this layout, the writing is perfect on all the headers.
If you want recommendations for pens to use on black pages, I definitely recommend the Sakura Gelly Roll, they have so many colors, and they are all perfect for black paper. I’m pretty sure this creator used them as well.
Grinch December Weekly
Since December is the holiday season, expect some weekly layouts inspired by holiday themes. And what can be more Christmas than Grinch?!
Simple Minimalist Weekly Log
Your weekly spreads don’t have to be complicated; simple layouts like this look just as good and helped the creator stay productive.
Plus, I love that the creator filled the extra space with stickers or lettering; they kind of created and decorated their daily boxes as the week went on. I think it’s a fun way to create something decorative without spending too much time on it at once.
Moth Themed Weekly Spread
You can do whatever you want with your journal, and even when everyone is doing a Christmas theme, go for it if you want to be different.
Like this creator, who went with a stunning moth theme for their weekly spread, and it turned out incredible.
Cozy December Weekly Spread
I thought this was just a cozy home kind of weekly spread, but then I took a closer look. The cookies are the cookies for Santa, and in the other corner, you can see sneaky wrapped gifts. Is that a secret Christmas weekly layout? I don’t know, but either way it looks great!
The creator also used my favorite technique – white on black. I got this idea originally from trying to fix a mistake myself, and eventually I fell in love with this look. My favorite tool for this is a white Sakura Gelly Roll gel pen.
Simple Christmas Weekly Log
If you want something holiday-themed but still simple and easy to set up, here is the inspiration. I have been really going for this style, something cute but simple enough that I can plan quickly.
I used a few tricks on this page that I love in all my weekly spreads. The first one is using a light grey marker to color every other line in the daily boxes instead of outlining the boxes themselves.
Secondly, when I doodle, I color just little accents instead of the entire doodle. I think it creates a fun aesthetic.
December Weekly Spread
Not everyone uses an A5-sized journal; some people use smaller notebooks like this one. But just because you have less space doesn’t mean you don’t have enough space to be creative!
I have two main reasons for using a smaller journal or a smaller space for your weekly spread.
First, less space can lower the pressure to decorate your journal. You can fill the page with your to-do list and feel less pressure to come up with design ideas.
Second, you don’t actually have that much going on. Like in this weekly spread layout, the week is pretty much just about celebrating Christmas, so you don’t really need to plan daily with a big to-do list.
Pastel Christmas Weekly Spread
What I love about Bullet Journaling is that you can play around with colors however you like. If you want your Christmas to be all about pastels, go for it! You can create an absolutely stunning layout like this one.
When it comes to pastels, I think the Tombow Dual Brush pens are the best, or at least definitely my favorites. I got my pastel set back in 2018 (my first set of brush pens), and I still love and use them.
Aesthetic Christmas Weekly Spread
Of course, there are a lot of Christmas-themed pages on this list, but I love how each creator brings their own style and aesthetic to their weekly layout.
This is a simple setup: divide each page into four sections. In this case, it’s a section for each day of the week and for a weekly habit tracker.
To decorate, the creator added a stripe down the middle of each page and those beautiful illustrations. I love that the creator hasn’t used any black lines in these drawings, just color!
One Page December Weekly Log
Just because December is the holiday season doesn’t mean you have to do a holiday theme in your Bullet journal. Here is an example of a non-holiday layout I created – in December 2025, my theme was stationery and pegboards, and here is my weekly log.
This theme was fun to create, and it’s pretty easy and quick.
Christmas Weekly Layout
Last but not least is this stunning weekly spread. I love the creator’s handwriting; it looks so neat and well organized!
