Stationery Recommendations
Before we dive into inspirations, let’s talk about supplies since you’ll need some to set up a future log.
Here are some of my favorites:
- Sakura Pigna Micron – a good fineliner is the must-have for creating any of your Bullet Journal pages. This set comes with different pen nib sizes, so you get more variety.
- Tombow Fudenosuke – perfect brush pen to help you add beautiful brush lettering to your page, and it’s a perfect one for beginners as well.
- Crayola Super Tips – some fun markers to add color to your pages. These come in many colors and are pretty affordable. I also love using Zebra Mildliners for their beautiful, soft colors.
- Calendar Stamps – a lot of future logs have mini calendars, and to make it easier on you, it’s a great idea to use some calendar stamps. Plus, stamps are actually reusable.
- Calendar Stickers – these are probably my favorites for adding calendars to the future log pages. I think the stickers look extra cute and clean, and they come in many amazing styles.
Now that you’ve got all your supplies ready, let’s look at these pages and see what kind of future log you want to create.

There's an astonishing variety of ways you can set up your Future Log. Some folks keep it minimalistic and functional, others go all out with colors and doodles, and then there are those who find a sweet spot somewhere in the middle.
But here's the thing - we could spend ages exploring all the different styles and variations.

These chosen few represent a broad spectrum of styles and approaches, so there's bound to be something that catches your eye.
Remember, these are just ideas to ignite your creativity. The beauty of Bullet Journaling lies in its adaptability. So, take these ideas, play around with them, and make them your own. After all, your Bullet Journal is a reflection of you - unique and one-of-a-kind. Let's get started!
I love this beautiful future log; it's a great example of a vertical future log that provides a lot of space for all your events. And the beautiful florals on the tons are a great decoration and a way to add a splush of color and creativity.
This is a future log that I created in the middle of the year. This is a great example of how to set up your future log if you don't start your Bullet Journal on January the first.
I love the stationery theme going on here, it's still my favorite future log to date.
Another fun way to add variety to your future log is by playing around with different fonts. I absolutely love the creative way Natasha wrote each month.
Another way to create a future log is just by creating a year at a glance. It can come together with a separate page to write any deadlines if needed. I like the aesthetic look of this page, but it's honestly lacking functionality for me.
There is beauty in minimalism and a minimal approach to the color and decoration of your future log pages. This is a wonderful example of how stylish and beautiful it can look if you go with such an approach.
If you want to go minimalist but still want the party going, try adding some spark with metallic pages! I absolutely love how beautiful this future log looks.
Here is a fuhn future log design - it provides you with all the space you need, but also is full of beautiful floral doodles.
Of course, a lot of future log pages have calendars. But you don't necessarily need to make this big of an effort to set up a page. This future log is a great example of setting up a future log without adding the mini calendars.
This future log combines mini calendars wutg a vertical monthly list, so you really get an overview of the year as well as lenty of space to add all the deadlines and important dates.
If you want to avoid adding mini calendars but still want to go colorful and fun with your future log -, just create decorative headers and frames like on this page.
I absolutely love the vibrant colors she chose for each month and how the frames are in gradient.
Last but not least is this circle future log. It's a fun way to do something different with your future log. And I really like that there is a bit of color coding going on here.
