During the past week while on our schools are on spring break and we have been practicing social distancing, I have worked on getting my bullet journal up to date. Yesterday while writing in my journal entry for the day, I realised that I had not yet shared my March spreads in this space. I determined to rectify that oversight.
For March I decided to loosely follow the theme created by Amanda Rach Lee, a YouTuber that I follow. I say loosely as I used a different quote to what she chose as well as a different layout for my weekly and monthly spread. As I enjoy reading, I have chosen to write down each month a quote from one of the books I have enjoyed reading. This month, the quote is from Unblemished by Sara Ella, a Young Adult Fantasy novel.
I used the leaf theme Amanda Rach Lee came up with in my monthly spread. While keeping my spread simple, I adapted her idea to suit my requirements. I liked the way she incorporated the leaves into a mood tracker and thought I could create something similar. I used a mood tracker in February and enjoyed filling it in therefore thought I would work on one again this month.
I adjusted the weekly spread and used a format that I have enjoyed using in the past. The spread has been quick and easy for me to recreate each week in March so far. I am loving its simplicity as well as the colours that I used.
Because of the social distancing so many of us are adhering to, the days this week (and next week) are free of plans. I am using the space, though, to keep a record of what I am doing at home as well as my thoughts.
What theme are you using this month in your bullet journal?

I’ve never kept a bullet journal but it looks very intersting. Your layout and colors are lovely and I think I may steal the quote to put on my kitchen message board for this month!

The first step towards bullet journaling 😊 What I enjoy about journaling is that you can create blocks to suit your daily needs.

Oooh! I love your journal ideas and coloring. I’m heading in that direction as I have been trying to write in my pandemic journal daily. But already I have missed days as I think I need to pull in more drawings and fewer words when I can’t express all that is going on. Thank you for sharing your pages!
