Stationery Recommendations
One more thing, before we dive into the cooling tutorials, let’s talk supplies. Obviously, you can easily doodle with whatever stationery you already have, but we all know that having better tools can help you do better and motivate you to keep on practicing your skills.
So, if you want to get some extra supplies to enhance your doodling, here are some of my recommendations:
- Notepad. You’ll need some paper to doodle, and I prefer a dot grid since it helps keep the doodles straight. Plus, especially if you want to add color to your doodles, you’ll want something with smooth paper; otherwise, your ma§rkers can be damaged. I recommend Rhodia Notepad.
- Pencil & eraser. For the pencil, I really recommend getting the one with a comfortable grip since you’ll probably spend a lot of time using it. My top choice is the Pilot Dr. Grip pencil. And for an eraser, get something that won’t leave any traces behind, like this Sakura Foam Eraser.
- Fineliners. These are the blood of your Bullet Journal. But also are wonderful for doodling. The black lines are perfect to outline your doodles, and the pen thickness variety will definitely allow you to make your doodles stand out even more. My choice for these are Sakura Pigma Micron.
- Markers. If color is your thing, you’ll want some markers, and I recommend Crayola Super Tips, since they come in so many colors and are pretty affordable. But I also really love Tombow Twin Tone and Zebra Mildliners for the special colors they offer.
- Colorful Pens. Another option if you want your doodles to be colorful. Tons of different pens you can use, but I would recommend Staedtler Triplus Fineliners or Sakura Gelly Roll, the latter being also amazing for working on black paper.
Now that you have all your supplies ready, it’s time for you to cozy up on the couch or in your home office and get doodling.
