9 Memory/Bullet Journaling Must-haves

7:07 AM

1. JOURNAL

So I’ve used lots of different journals and here's the one I like most. Here’s why!

1. I love the thickness of the papers so it has less bleed through.
2. I love that the papers are numbered which allows me to easily use the preformated Table of Contents.
3. The dotted paper to make designing easier.
4. Less than $10 price tag
5. Back pocket
6. Two ribbons to use as bookmarks. I usually keep one on my weekly and one on my monthly
7. Easy to order on Amazon. Linked here. I’m sure I could come up with more reasons I love this one but I’ll stop there!

2. MARKERS / Colored pencils

You can use anything fine tipped that you have! I recently started using these markers from Tombow. I love that it has dual tip for differentiation.

3. STICKER BOOK

Okay these are what got me hooked on the memory journals. It made it fun and easy! These sticker books are at Tuesday Morning and sold by American Crafts. Worth every penny even if you do have to pay full price. It just makes the process correlate and it’s so nice to have the days of the week stickers and coordinating themes.

4. WASHI TAPE

I find great coordinating sets from Tuesday Morning. Heidi Swapp also has great coordinating sets. Here's a cute one on amazon.

5. STAMPS

Whatever you have in your collection that correlates!
6. DIE CUTS

I usually find mine in the clearance section at Tuesday Morning. They can be found at any craft store. I also stash away any unused extra stamps if i do not use them.

7. SCRAPS

Even the tiniest scraps can be used to make your layout pretty and add dimension. I don't throw any papers unless they are teeny tiny.

8. STAPLER

I love this mini one so it doesn’t take up too much space on the layout. I love this this one because it is precise. I was bummed that it was a smaller staple than other mini staples. I bought staple refills from the Heidi Swapp collection and it didn’t match. Just be aware of that.

9. PHOTO PRINTER

I use the Canon Selphy. It was a gift in 2015 and I use it all the time. Just recently, I’ve created a 6 photo collage for the week and print on a 4x6 photo on the printer. I have the older version of the printers but the newer version is linked here .
