How To Draw A Notebook Step By Step

Bullet journaling isn't all about organisation (although this is a big part of it!) It's also a great way to express your personality and nurture your creativity. A popular way to do this is the art of doodling - cute drawings that are easy to draw. The best part is that you can get started with even the simplest of bullet journaling tools and supplies. So, whether you consider yourself a bit of a Picasso, or you're looking to improve your drawing skills, adding doodles to your bujo is something both fun and relaxing you can start today!

Introduction

Why should I bother?

Doodling isn't a sign of a loss of concentration: in fact, it is the opposite! Research has shown doodling has TONS of benefits: not only will it help your brain: you are more likely to remember things, concentrate and visualise, but it is also great for your mental health- think processing your emotions more productively and relieving stress.

And that's without all the creative energy you will bring to your bujo - and how pretty it's gonna look with all those cute easy drawings!

But I'm no good at doodles… where do I start?

Unsure where to begin? Worried you're not creative enough? Don't be! The bujo community is full of creative ideas and how to draw step by step tutorials to follow which will improve your drawing skills and have your bullet journal full of cute doodles in no time!
