Designing your Bullet Journal: Monthly Spread: October

October is one of my favourite months since the amount of spooky doodles and designs out there are endless!

I would have preferred to post this one on time for you all, but as studies take priority, you’ll just have to make do with using it as your inspo for next year! 😀


October Title Page

A bat, I drew a bat. I don’t think I’ve ever tried drawing a bat that wasn’t the simple bat man radar esc doodle. Having said that, I think I did pretty well with my little guy!^^

I probably could have shared his space with some spiders and cobwebs, or ghosts and pumpkins, but I suppose he’ll just have to hang out on his own this year.


October Calendar

Speaking of bat doodles, I definitely made the choice to use them as a background decoration for the October month. I especially like my lil ghost dudes being spooked by a spider…


October Mood Tracker

Over the months I am being somewhat more consistent with recording my moods daily in a mood tracker, but it is a habit, and therefore will take some time.

Pumpkins are never perfect, unless genetically modified… what I mean is, you can draw 31 odd pumpkin vague shapes, put a rectangle on top and some accent marks, and you’ve got yourself a Halloween themed mood tracker!


October Habit Tracker

Just as with a mood tracker, a habit tracker can take some time to be consistent with too. I always find myself missing a week or two altogether throughout the month still, if you don’t make a daily habit of sitting down to go through the pages, its harder to keep on top of.

The page is still always a good excuse for some decorations though, even if it doesn’t end up used…


October Finances

Finances never change, so why should my page…

I’m sure I’ll redesign this one soon, but as I’m more focussed on using it to keep track of my finances, I don’t wish to mess with what already works for me.


October To-Do List and Schedule

I didnt use my schedule as much this month, but my to-do list always comes in handy for those odd tasks and uni projects with due dates, or that I just want to get done before the next month.


October Exercise Tracker

Im pretty inconsistent when it comes to exercise, but that’s what my objective with this page is – to become more consistent!

Sometimes, I think a motivating character sticker might help – it does not. But it looks cool!


October Brain Dump

It’s a brain dump. Just a page for all your thoughts and ideas in one place every month!


October Weekly Spread

I love drawing out my October spread. This weekly spread was especially enjoyable with the spooky decorations! Who doesn’t love devoting the month to halloween!^^


I hope this gives you some nice ideas and inspiration for upcoming years.^^

~Happy Halloween.
