Minimalist One-Page Bullet Journal Weekly Spread Ideas
Diving into the world of Bullet Journal weekly spreads can feel like a cascading waterfall of creativity and organization. But sometimes, less is more.
If you’re a fan of minimalist design or simply don’t have the time to decorate a spread with washi tape, stickers, and intricate doodles, then this post is your new best friend!
We’re about to explore the uncharted territory of minimalist one-page weekly spreads, proving that simplicity can be just as effective, if not more so, than complex designs.
These Bullet Journal page ideas are perfect for those busy weeks when you need to streamline your tasks, events, and notes into one neat, clean page.
These ideas will not only save you time but also declutter your mind, allowing you to focus on what truly matters—living your life to the fullest and ticking off those important tasks.
I’m all up for creative and artistic Bullet Journaling and elaborate weekly spread designs. But sometimes you might just not have the time to do all that, and I don’t want you to skip on your planning just because you don’t have the time to doodle away.
For situations like this, embracing minimalism in your Bullet Journal weekly spreads can be an absolute game-changer. Minimalist designs strip away the fluff and get straight to the point. They allow you to clearly see your tasks, goals, and appointments without any distractions.
They take just a few minutes to set up, meaning they are the perfect idea when you don’t have much time for planning. But just because they are, it doesn’t mean that they can’t look absolutely stunning.
And one-page weekly spreads are even more so! With a one-page weekly design, everything is at your fingertips on a single page. No more flipping back and forth between pages to find that elusive note you scribbled down. Plus, it leaves you more time to actually do the things on your list rather than just decorating them (though we all know that part can be fun too!).
In this blog post, I’ve gathered some inspirations for you to show how these two can work together and look absolutely stunning.

Stationery Recommendations
Even though minimalism means you use very few supplies, it doesn’t mean there are still more plans you can use to add a bit of variety to your pages.
So, if you’re looking to get some more, check out my recommendations of the supplies I’m sure you’ll love using:
- Fineliners. For any Bullet Journal page, be it minimalist or artistic, you need a good set of fineliners. I recommend getting Sakura Pigma Micron pens, which also come in a set of different nib sizes, providing a wide variety of line thicknesses.
- Tombow Fudenosuke. This brush pen is very easy to master and is perfect for adding brush lettering to your Bullet Journal pages. These pens are also great for drawing if you feel like adding some minimalist decorations.
- Monochrome Brush Pens. For a great variety of monochrome colors, you can’t go wrong with Tombow Dual Brush monochrome set. Great for coloring as well as for brush lettering.
- Writing pen. You’ll need a good writing pen, and there are so many to choose from! I recommend getting Muji pens because they create beautiful thin lines and look aesthetic as well.
Now that you have all your supplies ready, let’s get comfortable in your home office and start choosing your next one-page weekly design.
Minimalist One-Page Bullet Journal Weekly Spread Ideas
You might be thinking, "A one-page minimalist weekly spread...how much variation could there really be?" And to that I say, "Oh, my dear friend, you'd be surprised!" The beauty of Bullet Journaling lies in its flexibility and adaptability. Even within the realm of minimalism, there's a world of diversity waiting to be explored.
So, to awaken your inner minimalist muse, I've scoured the web and compiled 15 different ideas from various creators. Each one has their own unique take on the one-page minimalist weekly spread, proving that simplicity doesn't have to mean boring.
Starting with this absolutely stunning one-page weekly spread, where the creator manages to even add elements like your ongoing projects.
I love how the beauty of this spread is elevated by the beautiful handwriting and the straight and neat lines.
Your one-page weekly spreads can be easily leveled up if you use a neighboring page to add a decorative element to it, like on this page.
Sometimes more is less, and this incredible weekly spread shows how, by just using essential elements, you can create a stylish page in your journal.
Just because you want a minimalist weekly spread doesn't mean you can't decorate it. Here is an example of how a quick little botanical doodle can add a bit of creative fun to your weekly.
Playing on a contrast between black and white is an amazing way to add a but interest to your pages without spending too much time decorating. The white on black technique is actually also amazing for hiding you little mistakes!
A fun, easy, and subtle way to decorate your pages is by using washi tape. Thankfully, there are so many different styles and designs of washi tape available that you can definitely find something that fits minimalist aesthetics.
This weekly spread stole my heart with the incredible handwriting that serves almost as a decoration of the page by itself.
This weekly spread was created mostly with Bullet Journal stamps, and it's a great hack to make sure you create your pages in half the time.
Just because minimalist designs are usually thought of as black and white doesn't mean that you can't use any color. The little color accents you see on this spread look absolutely stunning!
Speaking of color, you can definitely create something bright and rainbow like and still call it a minimalist spread, just look at the tiny specks of color on this page.
I really like the minimalism of this weekly spread and how well-organized it all is. There is even a space for a monthly calendar and a to-do list!
I love that weekly spread, and it almost looks unbelievable that one page can fit all the days of the week and two separate trackers!
Horizontal format works very well for a one-page weekly spread just as well. And I love the brush lettering on this particular page.
This weekly spread is stunning and a great example of how you can customize your spread to fit your planning needs. Here, most of the weekly spread is about goals, focus, and trackers rather than daily boxes.
Last but not least, this spread follows a format similar to the previous one. A cool thing I really love about this page is the gray accents for each element.
