October Halloween Bullet Journal Inspirations
Halloween is a fun and creative season, and creating something Halloween-themed can take many forms. I love seeing how everyone takes a unique approach to a spooky theme.
In this post, I've gathered inspiration from different creators, so you can seed different ideas and aesthetics, so you can definitely find something that fits our style.
Witches are definitely a staple of the spooky season, and when I got those stamps, I immediately thought of creating a spooky, witchy-themed setup.
I think using different colored paper also helped to make this monthly setup stand out,
This circle weekly spread has all the important signifies of the Halloween season, and I'm definitely here for it! I love how the creator went the extra step and even used spooky fonts for the headers.
There is something special about using kraft paper; I think it creates that special Fall atmosphere.
This cover page is a great example of a pretty subtle Halloween theme. Generally, the whole page has the cozy Fall vibes, but this little detail of the skeleton hand automatically adds a spirit of Halloween.
First of all, how beautiful the lettering for the month is! I also think it's such a clever idea to make the cover page of your month a door since cover pages are kind of doorways into a new month.
I think, generally, this is more of a restro-type theme, with tne old school fonts, and the old picture. But considering this is for October, it really makes me think of those creepy old pictures where the spirits are trapped and come out to murder at night. It could work both ways!
If you want to create something special in your Bullet Journal, you don't necessarily have to go all over and overboard with the decorations. Here is my weekly spread where I used small doodles to add a few accents and a hint of the creepy season.
I adore the scrapbook feel of this cover page; it really makes it look so special. And the contrast between black and white looks perfect for a spooky October theme.
Using a lot of black on your cover page is perfect for a spooky theme, and with a black background, you can play around with different pens and colors since they will stand out so much on a dark background, especially if you use metallics, like gold here.
You don't have to go creepy with your Halloween pages; you can definitely do something soft and paste, like these beautiful ghosts. Again the contrast with the black background highlights their soft collors and good nature.
I love these spreads since they are what I call a classic approach to Halloween: a bunch of themed doodles put together with two main colors that fit the season. This idea is always a win!
This setup is out of this world! But you've got to agree that everything witchy is perfect for an October Halloween theme.
This cover page definitely took a lot of time and effort, but it's absolutely worth it!
Don't you love making things kawaii? It creates a fun contrast with the spookiness of the season and the doodles.
Adding cute faces to your doodles is a great tool to make them look different and fun.
Last but not least is my Halloween-themed tracker. It might not be the prettiest page I've ever created, but I sure had fun with it, and it was my first time doing something with pencils. Not my favorite media hahha
But either way, this is a cute idea on how to make your mood tracker Halloween-themed.
