17 Christmas Bullet Journal Bucket List Ideas
As the holiday cheer fills the air, let’s dive into some festive Bullet Journal page ideas! Have you ever thought about a Christmas bucket list?
It’s the perfect way to capture all your holiday wishes and plans. From baking gingerbread cookies and decorating the tree to watching classic Christmas movies, your Bullet Journal can hold all these delightful activities.
With each task you tick off, you’ll feel the satisfaction of making the most out of the season. So, grab your journal, let your creativity flow, and start crafting your very own Christmas story.
After all, isn’t that what Bullet Journaling is all about?
I love creating bucket lists. For me, it’s a great way to keep the spice of life.
It’s so easy to get sucked into a routine and just keep on doing the same thing. Then one day you wake up, and you miss all the fun things you could’ve been doing.
All simply because you’re too tired to think of those things and just want a simple solution, like a couch and Netflix.
Does that sound relatable? It happened to me more than once until I discovered the bucket list!
A bucket list reminds us of the fun things we love to do. That way, you won’t need to spend any energy trying to devise a plan for the weekend – just look at the bucket list and choose an activity.
It also helps you make your life more exciting and fun because it pushes you to do things you usually wouldn’t do. And those experiences are the best!
You can make a bucket list for anything. It can be seasonal, like a Fall bucket list, or it can be a life bucket list or a holiday-themed one, like the ones in this post.
Today we are talking about the Christmas bucket list, so let’s see what things you can add.
Oh and before we dive into it, be sure to check the end of the post for some Christmas freebies and more inspirations.
Christmas Bucket List Ideas
The idea behind a bucket list is for you to choose the things you love doing.
But at the same time, it can be very difficult.
The other day, my friend asked me to describe my perfect day. It included me working and walking with the puppy. She was in shock!
I didn’t include any meetings with friends or cocktails on the beach. Why? Because my brain is so used to the routine I have right now that I didn’t even consider these things an option.
So that’s why here I’ll start by giving you a tiny list of different things you can do for Christmas. Maybe some of these are the ones you love doing. And if not – at least they will jolt your brain to think outside the box.
- Make a gingerbread house
- Have hot cocoa with marshmallows
- Christmas playlist
- Watch Christmas movies
- Go caroling
- Kiss under the mistletoe
- Christmas manicure
- Go ice skating
- Make a gourmet hot chocolate
- Get an ugly Christmas sweater
- Random act of kindness
- Build a snowman
- Leave cookies for Santa
- Make a garland
- Roast chestnuts

Stationery Recommendations
Before we look into the Bullet Journal pages I thought we should talk about supplies. After all, the right pen can really add so much joy to creating!
So, while you can create stunning bucket lists with any supplies you already have, here are some of my favorites, especially for Christmas themed pages.
- Sakura Pigma Micron – fineliners are your best friend for creating any Bullet Journal page. These are amazing, have incredible archival ink, and come in sets with different nib sizes, so you get more variety.

Christmas Bucket List Bullet Journal Page Ideas
As a Bullet Journal enthusiast, I find immense joy in drawing inspiration from other creators. There's a whole world of creativity out there, and every page I encounter is a testament to that. This process of exploration isn't just about copying or replicating what others have done. Instead, it's about understanding the elements that resonate with you.
Looking at other people's work can spark a chain reaction of creativity. Seeing how they've brought their pages to life can open up a world of possibilities for my own journal. It encourages me to step outside my comfort zone and try something new, something different.
So, let's embark on this journey of discovery together. Let's dive deep into the ocean of inspiration and see what treasures we can uncover.
After all, Bullet Journaling is not just about organization; it's about expressing ourselves, pushing our creative boundaries, and constantly evolving. So, get ready to be inspired, and remember, the sky's the limit when it comes to your Bullet Journal!
First off, I can't help but gush over this creator's handle! There's something inherently charming about alpacas and llamas, don't you think? They're such quirky, lovable creatures that never fail to bring a smile to my face. It's a small detail, I know, but it's these little personal touches that make the Bullet Journaling community so unique and diverse.
Now, let's talk about this bucket list. It's such a straightforward concept, yet it's executed with such elegance that it takes on a whole new level of appeal. The cursive handwriting is the clear standout here.
So, here's to the creators who continue to inspire us with their creativity and ingenuity. And here's to the power of Bullet Journaling, which allows us to transform simple ideas into stunning works of art, all while helping us navigate our lives with greater clarity and purpose.
Oh, how I adore using kraft paper in my Bullet Journal! It's like wrapping your thoughts and ideas in a warm, cozy blanket. There's just something about that earthy brown hue that brings a comforting, homey vibe to each page. It's like a cup of hot cocoa for the soul, wouldn't you agree?
Now, imagine pairing this with a Christmas bucket list. Brilliant, right? The rustic charm of the kraft paper, coupled with the joyous spirit of the holiday season, creates a concoction that's too delightful to resist. It's like having your very own Christmas storybook, right there in your Bullet Journal!
And the best part? As you check off each item on your list, you're not just marking tasks as done. You're creating memories, cherishing moments, and embracing the magic of the season, one page at a time.
It's a beautiful reminder of the warmth and joy that Christmas brings, all wrapped up in the snug embrace of your kraft paper page.
A dazzling Christmas bucket list, adorned with stunning gold accents. It's like your Bullet Journal is throwing on its festive best, ready to join you in the holiday cheer.
The beauty of this spread lies in its simplicity which, coupled with those shiny gold touches, creates a striking contrast that's impossible to ignore. It's like your Bullet Journal has put on a pair of sparkling earrings, ready to dazzle at the holiday party!
Feast your eyes on this absolutely beautiful Christmas bucket list. Yes, the one with those stunning doodles that are practically leaping off the page, eager to join in your festive celebrations.
And do you see that shadow added to each doodle? Now that's a game-changer!
But here's my favorite part - each item comes with a neat little checkbox. It's a small detail, I know, but it makes such a big difference, doesn't it? You can easily spot how many items you've ticked off and how many more are waiting to be explored.
It's like your personal Christmas countdown, keeping track of all the merry moments you've embraced and those that are yet to come.
I love how each Bullet Journal creator brings their own unique flair to their Christmas bucket lists!
This creator has opted for a scrapbooking style, and let me tell you, it's making my heart do the jingle bell rock! The delightful medley of stickers and the layered paper create a delightful depth; it's like unwrapping a Christmas present on each page!
So why not give this a whirl? Grab your favorite stickers, dust off that stack of colorful paper, and let's create a Christmas bucket list that's not just a to-do list but a scrapbook of holiday cheer!
Have you ever come across something so neat and beautiful that it makes your heart do a little happy dance? That's exactly what happened when I saw this bucket list.
I'm obsessed with the fonts on this page! Each one complements the other in a delightful dance of typography.
The doodles are all super fun and cheerful, but the real cherry on top is that black shadow added to each doodle. It's like adding a spotlight on a stage performer, making them stand out, making them shine. It's a simple trick but boy, does it make a difference!
Let's chat about this bucket list that I've affectionately dubbed 'the artistic one'. Now, you might be wondering why I'm throwing around such a grand title. Well, let me tell you, it's all about the doodles!
These doodles have that little something extra, that secret ingredient that makes them stand out and look more realistic. They're so well-done, you almost expect them to jump right off the page and join in your holiday celebrations!
But it's not just the doodles that have won my heart. It's the entire festive feel of the list and the photo itself. It's like a warm cup of hot cocoa on a cold winter's night, or the twinkling lights on a Christmas tree - it just fills your heart with joy and anticipation for the holiday season.
Let's take a moment to appreciate this wonderfully creative bucket list I've stumbled upon. I'm absolutely in love with the scrapbook-style approach.
Now, I know what you're thinking, "Scrapbooking? In a Bullet Journal?" And to that, I say a resounding 'yes'! You see, the beauty of Bullet Journaling is that there are no rules. It's your journal, your rules. And if you want to incorporate elements of scrapbooking into your spreads, then by all means, go for it!
And let's not overlook the genius layout of this page. At first glance, you might think it's just a decorative spread, but look closer. Notice how despite its ornamental nature, there's still plenty of room to jot down all the information you need. It's like having your cake and eating it too - a feast for the eyes AND a functional planner.
Anyone who knows me well knows that I'm a sucker for colorful spreads. There's just something about the riot of colors that brings joy and excitement, especially during the holiday season
However, every once in a while, something comes along that makes me reconsider my color-loving ways. This time, it's Nicole's spread. It's so elegant, so stylish, and oh-so-wonderful, I couldn't help but fall in love with it.
Nicole's spread is like a black and white photograph - timeless, classic, and always in style. It's a testament to the fact that sometimes, less is more, and that you don't always need a rainbow of colors to make your page stand out. And let me tell you, it's definitely making me want to explore the world of black and white spreads more.
This bucket list is like stepping into a wonderland of cuteness!
And can we please take a moment to appreciate the handwriting here? It's absolute goals, my friends! I don't know about you, but I'm definitely feeling inspired to up my handwriting game!
I absolutely adore how the creator has divided it into two sections - 'things to do' and 'movies to watch'. It's such a clever way to organize your thoughts and plans, don't you think? And let's be honest, who among us doesn't have a growing list of movies to watch this holiday season?
Isn't this bucket list just the cutest thing you've ever seen? I can't get over those delightful variations of gingerbread cookies - they almost look good enough to eat! It's like a little taste of the holiday season, right there on the page.
And let's not forget about that botanical frame encircling the actual bucket list. It's such a simple touch, but it adds so much charm to the page. Plus, it serves as a lovely border that neatly sections off the bucket list, keeping everything tidy and organized.
This idea of transforming a traditional Christmas bucket list into a game of bingo is nothing short of ingenious. It's like sprinkling a dash of playfulness onto our goals.
Think about it - there's something inherently exciting about the prospect of crossing off five things in a row to score that satisfying 'BINGO!' It motivates us to get started, adding a layer of anticipation and fun to the whole experience. It's almost as if we're kids again, eagerly waiting for our turn to play.
But here's my favorite part - this bingo-style bucket list isn't merely about completing tasks. It's about embracing the joy of the holidays, the thrill of achieving small victories, and most importantly, the satisfaction of making the most out of the festive season. And who knows, you might just end up completing more than one line!
I have to say, this bucket list has stolen my heart with its utter cuteness and coziness. It's like a warm hug on a cold day - comforting and filled with love.
The watercolor work here is truly something to admire. The finesse, the precision, it's all so beautifully done.
Now, let me tell you, I've tried my hand at watercolors and let's just say that the results were... well, less than impressive. Picture blobs of color everywhere and paper so soggy it could double as a dishrag. So, when I see a piece like this, so detailed and clean, I can't help but be in awe.
Every now and then, I come across a Bullet Journal spread that just makes me stop and admire, and this cozy bucket list is one of them. The artist has worked magic with only two colors, proving that simplicity can indeed lead to diversity. It's like they've taken the essence of coziness and painted it onto the page - the result is simply stunning.
And you know what else caught my eye? Those tiny doodles scattered all over the page. There's something about small doodles that adds an extra dose of cuteness to any layout.
But the beauty of this page isn't just in its visual appeal. It's also in the way it inspires us to explore our creativity. It shows us that we don't need a rainbow of colors to create something beautiful. Sometimes, all it takes is a couple of shades and a little imagination.
This bucket list is an absolute visual treat! The attention to detail is mind-blowing, and the snowy forest scene at the bottom? Pure magic. It's like you can almost hear the snowflakes gently falling through the air, feel the chill in the atmosphere, and smell the fresh, crisp scent of pine trees.
Now, I know I referred to this as a minimalist bucket list, but let's not be fooled. That tranquil forest scene must have taken quite a bit of time and patience to create. It's a testament to the artist's dedication and love for their craft.
Minimalist doesn't necessarily mean quick or easy, and this bucket list is the perfect example of that.
The beauty of this page lies in its clever mix of what appears to be different types of paper, creating an appealing visual texture that draws the eye. Imagine my surprise when I discovered that it's not paper at all, but washi tape!
Let's talk about the content of this list - aptly named the 'last-minute list'. December is such a whirlwind of activities, isn't it? Between holiday preparations, end-of-year deadlines and social gatherings, it often feels like we're racing against the clock. And in the midst of all this hustle and bustle, it's all too easy to let certain tasks or plans slip our minds until the very last moment.
But you know what? That's okay. That's where the magic of Bullet Journaling comes in. Our Bullet Journal isn't just a place to track our to-do's, it's also a tool to help us navigate the chaos and stay grounded. It's a gentle reminder that even amidst the rush, we can still find moments of calm and order.
Barbara's page is a delightful tribute to the joys of Christmas, rendered in her distinct and captivating style. Her creative prowess shines through each element on the page, making it a must-include in this list.
But what truly sets her work apart is the heartwarming sentiment behind it - a reminder of all the wonderful things we cherish about the holiday season. It's not just a beautiful spread, it's a celebration of love, joy, and the magic of Christmas, captured within the pages of a Bullet Journal.
