Many people use calendars and reminders on a daily basis, especially with the various applications in their smartphones, including the stock Calendar and Reminder apps. However, some people prefer to go old school with a notebook, and that's where the art of "bujo" comes in. If you haven't already guessed, that stands for BUllet JOurnalling.
There are many benefits to having a bullet journal, such as recording your daily tasks, birthdays of friends and family members, a movie date, or even just to record you day-to-day moods and feelings for a spiritual journey. Since it is such a personal item, many will spend time to design and customize it to the way they want to. Whether you're new to BUJO or have been doing it for some time, as long as you're looking for some design inspirations, check out these 6 Instagram profiles!
