Best Doodling Supplies
When you sit down to doodle, you’ll probably wonder what supplies to use to make these doodles pop.
So, here are some of my recommendations:
- Notebook. I always think it’s a good idea to have a separate doodling notebook; that way, you have a journal with doodle ideas, and you can see your progress. You don’t need anything fancy for that; Lemome Dotted Bullet Notebook works just as well.
- Fineliners. These are the best pens to do your doodling, and I definitely recommend using Sakura Pigma Micron – they come in a set with different nib sizes so you get a variety of line thicknesses.
- Colorful markets. Finally, for Valentine’s Day doodles, you’ll want to use a lot of pins. I always recommend Crayola Super Tips, because they come in a pack of 100 colors and are very affordable.
Obviously, you don’t have to have all these supplies. You can definitely doodle just with a pencil. But isn’t it more fun to doodle with cute and amazing pens?
So, either way, you have all your pens now, so let’s start doodling!
Step-By-Step Bullet Journal Valentine’s Day Doodles
Starting with 11 simple tutorials that I’ve carefully designed just for you, these are incredibly beginner-friendly and super easy to follow. Each tutorial is structured to guide you step-by-step, so even if you’ve never tried doodling before, you’ll find them approachable and fun.
As I was putting these tutorials together, I had a little epiphany: you can turn almost anything into a Valentine’s Day-themed doodle!
All it takes is adding a few hearts here and there, sprinkling in some love-filled details, and, of course, using lots of pink to color it all in. The possibilities are endless, and I can’t wait to see how creative you get with these ideas!
Love Letter Doodle
We’re starting with something simple yet classic – a love letter. It’s a timeless symbol of affection and a perfect place to begin.
While you could keep it simple by drawing just a letter with a heart, I thought it would be fun to add a little something extra to make it stand out. So, I decided to include a pair of angel wings.
Or maybe, in this case, they’re more like Cupid’s wings, adding a whimsical, romantic touch to the design. It’s a small detail, but it really transforms the doodle into something unique and full of character.
Love Potion Doodle
A cute little vial of love potion is next on the list, and it’s one of my absolute favorites. Not only is it adorable, but it’s also incredibly versatile.
I think this design could be perfect as a Halloween doodle too! All you’d need to do is switch up the color of the potion to something spooky, like a deep green or a mysterious purple, and maybe tweak the label design to feature something like a skull, a bat, or a spooky symbol.
With just a few small changes, this love potion can easily transform into a fun, festive doodle for Halloween, perfect for setting the mood of the season!
Engagement Ring Doodle
Of course, I couldn’t avoid creating a tutorial for an engagement ring. But now I’m thinking if I should’ve drawn a diamond instead of a heart as the main stone.
Either way, I think you got the main idea of how to doodle it, and you can play around with the right design as you want.
Bouquet Of Roses Doodle
Roses may not be my personal favorite type of flower, but there’s no denying their timeless connection to love and romance, making them an iconic symbol for Valentine’s Day. Their classic elegance and vibrant colors have long made them a staple for the holiday, so it felt only right to include them as part of this collection.
If roses aren’t quite your style either, don’t worry—I’ve got you covered! If you’re looking to explore more floral options, I’ve included some additional recommendations along with easy-to-follow tutorials for drawing other types of flowers.
You’ll find these bonus ideas conveniently placed at the end of this post, so you can pick and choose the ones that suit your taste or match your creative vision.
Heart Candy
With candy being one of the most popular and well-loved gifts for Valentine’s Day, it was an absolute must for me to include this sweet and simple doodle in the collection.
After all, nothing says “Valentine’s Day” quite like a cute assortment of treats wrapped up with love!
Looking at it now, though, there’s one thing I’d probably tweak to make it even more festive. I think adding a little more pink – maybe to the wrapper, the candy itself, or even the background – would really make it pop and give it that extra Valentine’s Day charm. A little touch of pink always goes a long way in creating that perfect holiday vibe!
Calendar Doodle
This is probably the easiest doodle you can create for Valentine’s Day—a simple calendar with the date marked on it. It’s quick, straightforward, and perfect for anyone looking for a fun, low-effort way to capture the holiday spirit.
To make it even more festive, you can add a few extra hearts around the design or decorate the border with tiny love-inspired details like arrows, flowers, or even small doodles of Cupid.
Of course, to give it that distinct Valentine’s Day vibe, you can incorporate shades of pink and red into the color scheme. Whether it’s the background, the numbers, or the hearts, using those signature colors will instantly make your doodle stand out as a tribute to this special day of love and romance. Simple yet charming!
Jar Of Hearts Doodle
I have to admit, “jar of hearts” is probably not the best name for this particular doodle. The phrase, while catchy, immediately brings to mind something a bit darker—like serial killers or eerie crime stories—which is definitely not the vibe I’m going for here. It’s supposed to be sweet and romantic, not chilling!
To give it a more fitting and cheerful twist, I think it would be better to call it a “jar of love.” That name feels so much more appropriate—it captures the warmth, affection, and Valentine’s Day spirit that this doodle is all about. Plus, it has a nice ring to it, don’t you think?
Heart Lock Doodle
It’s heart-shaped, pink, and absolutely perfect for Valentine’s Day—a doodle that instantly captures the spirit of love and romance! There’s something so simple yet so meaningful about this design that makes it one of my favorites for the holiday.
What I love most about this doodle is that it reminds me of those enchanting bridges where people add locks with their names or initials on them as a symbol of their love.
I’ve never actually done it myself, but I’ve always found the idea so incredibly romantic. There’s something magical about seeing all those locks, each one representing a story of love and connection, hanging together in one place.
This doodle feels like a small, creative nod to that beautiful tradition. It’s a perfect way to bring a little bit of that romance into your drawings!
Cupcake Doodle
Cupcakes are undeniably delicious, and when you add a little heart on top, they instantly become the perfect sweet treat for Valentine’s Day. They’re cute, festive, and capture the essence of love and celebration in a single bite (or doodle, in this case!).
A cupcake decorated like this is an ideal way to bring some Valentine’s Day flair to your designs.
However, as I take a closer look at this particular doodle, I can’t help but notice that it seems to resemble a muffin more than a cupcake. Maybe it’s the shape of the wrapper or the way the top is drawn—it’s missing that fluffy swirl of frosting that usually defines a classic cupcake.
What do you think? Should we add some frosting and sprinkles to make it unmistakably cupcake-like, or leave it as it is for a simpler, more versatile design? Either way, it’s a delightful addition to the Valentine’s Day theme!
Love Message Doodle
Of course, one thing you see a lot of on Valentine’s Day is sweet messages of love, so I absolutely had to include a doodle of a cellphone receiving that iconic little heart message.
It’s such a fun and modern way to represent how we connect with loved ones, especially on this special day. From romantic texts to thoughtful emojis, the cellphone has become a symbol of how we share affection in today’s digital age.
As I was creating this doodle, though, I couldn’t help but feel a little nostalgic. Is it just me, or does anyone else miss the days when phones were so bright and colorful? Those old-school designs with vibrant cases, playful keypads, and even quirky charms dangling off the side had such personality.
Compared to the sleek and neutral designs of today’s phones, they felt so cheerful and unique. Maybe it’s time we bring some of that colorful energy back, at least in our doodles! What do you think—should we give this cellphone doodle a pop of color to capture that retro charm?
Love Coffee Doodle
I had to wrap up my set of tutorials with a coffee cup because, let’s be honest, coffee is love. It’s warm, comforting, and just the thing to bring a smile to your face, especially on a day like Valentine’s Day.
Plus, it pairs so perfectly with the cupcake and candies we doodled earlier—like the ultimate cozy Valentine’s treat. Who wouldn’t want to imagine a little sweet indulgence alongside their favorite cup of coffee?
To make the doodle extra festive, I decided to add a fun touch by shaping the coffee’s vapor into little hearts. It’s a small detail, but it really brings out the Valentine’s Day vibe and adds a bit of whimsy to the design.
That said, if you feel like this step is a bit much or you prefer a simpler look, feel free to skip it. The beauty of doodling is that you can make it as detailed or minimal as you like—just go with whatever feels right for you! Either way, this coffee cup doodle is sure to bring a warm and loving touch to your collection.

I really love that she used the technique of adding just a splash of color to each doodle; I love using it myself.
