Featuring the adorably designed AmandaRachLee 2021 Doodle Planner!
Whether you know it formally as a “bullet journal” or simply as a “bujo”, I’m sure you’ve seen this dot-grid phenomenon taking over the internet. Pinterest and IG are a treasure trove of planning and study inspo and the bullet journal craze has found itself the star in the middle of it all.
While I do love the aesthetics and creativity bullet journaling allows, between working full-time and juggling various hobbies (knitting, sewing, photography, youtube, baking, reading, DOINEEDMORE…?) I tend to not have a lot of time left in the week to create intricate spreads and pre-plan months at a time.
On cue, filling a necessary gap in my busy life enters the ARL Doodle Planner to the rescue!
I first stumbled upon Amanda Rach Lee and her bullet journal spreads back in my early planner girl phase of ’17. View my other planning favorites! I’ve been coming back month after month to check out the bujo spreads she creates.
You might love the Doodle Planner if you’ve wanted to explore the world of aesthetic bullet journaling but either felt too intimidated to start from scratch or too busy to create multiple, themed spreads.
Benefits of the Doodle Planner
- Tons of pre-printed doodles that combine the fun of coloring and filling in a bujo without the stress of drawing, doodling, or planning spreads in advance. Amanda created a variety of simplistic yet themed spreads to color and decorate each page.
- Amazing high quality with thick 160gsm (read: super thicc) pages means no bleeding or ghosting! I love that I’m able to use my favorite pens, mildliners, and Tombows without worrying about messing up the other pages
- Support a small, female entrepreneur-owned business!
