Best Gift Ideas for a Bullet Journaler
A dotted journal
The journal of choice for bullet journalers is a doted journal. This makes it easy to keep things organized and in line without needing to have a ruler on hand all the time. A dotted journal also gives lots of flexibility in designing layouts for each week since there is nothing to impede the creative flow.
Fine Liners
Ideal for adding colour or colour coding to a bullet journal. Fine liners, as the name implies, also have nice fine points.
This makes it much easier to add detail or to write with since they are more pen-sized than traditional markers. This set seems in an incredible deal with 60 colours and a low price point to boot!
The Bullet Journal Method
 The creator of the bullet journal system just released this book in November 2018. For budding bullet journalers, this is a great place to start to learn the system and how to apply it to your life and plans.
With a ton of content about how the system works, the intention behind the structure and application. This is a no brainer gift.
Free Mini Course
Now here is a great gift idea for the bullet journaler!
You can consider signing up your bullet journaler for the free mini-course on starting a bullet journal that we have here at Planning with Maggie Rae. hundreds of new bullet journalers have taken the course and learned all the basics about setting up a journal and how to build a style.

Brush Pens
For the hand letterers out there or the creatives that want to try our calligraphy to spice up their journals pick them up a set of brush pens.
From ombre lettering to stand out banners and headers. Brush pens are a great addition to any stationery collection. For smaller letters or a more minimal vibe, you can check out these ones too.
Pencil Case
A cute pencil case will always have a place in a bullet journalers bag. With brush pens, markers, washi tape, stickers, and all the stationery essentials, you gotta have a place to put it after all. This case has 2 sections so you can keep your frequently used supplies in the top and your extended collection underneath making it easy to find what you need.
Washi Tape
A bullet journal isn’t complete without washi tape. An easy way to personalize a journal to the writer, washi tape comes in all kinds of styles, colours, and thicknesses. You can opt for colourful tapes or tapes with the days of the week for labelling. The possibilities are endless. Find the type that best suits your bullet journaler.
Stickers
Life isn’t complete without stickers. It’s one of those gifts that supplies tons of practicality while still being fun and easy to use. I have this pack and it lasts FOREVER. With 30 sheets of stickers, there is lots of choose from and it can even save her some time by adding some detail or motivation without having to draw it out.
Stamps
Just like stickers, stamps can be something that your bullet journaler wouldn’t buy herself but it is something that they could be super happy about since it makes it SO EASY to do monthly and weekly setups, banners, calendars and more. This set is a great one to consider.
Bullet journalers love things that will allow them to be productive, streamlined and creative all at once. Picking a gift that makes it easier and more fun to set up their layouts is key. My dad always used to say that we should buy a gift that the person wants but wouldn’t consider buying for themselves. I think that’s something that we can all relate too, wanting something but feeling like we can’t justify purchasing it. These sorts of gifts make an impact since it shows we know the person well and are able to give them a luxury they’ve been longing for.
