My Must-Have Bullet Journal Supplies

Since starting my bullet journal (a year ago, crazy) I’ve tried various pens and stationery bits and bobs. A year on, I feel like I have my favourite bullet journal supplies that are my go-to products. If you have a journal or are thinking about bullet journaling, here are my recommendations.

Bullet Journal

First things first, a bullet journal is essential. I’m currently using the Leuchtturm1917 journal, which I think is great for beginners. Before I bought mine, I also practised in an old notebook, so that’s worth doing to see if journaling is for you. I reckon I have about 3 months worth of space left in my current journal, and after that, I want to try the Scribbles That Matter Pro journal as I’ve seen the reviews on YouTube and it looks great. AmandaRachLee (my favourite bullet journal YouTuber) has used Scribbles That Matter before, so I’m taking that as a good sign.

Tombow Fudenosuke Soft Tip Pen

My favourite pen at the moment for all things brush lettering. If you’re someone who prefers smaller calligraphy, this is an easy pen to use. I want to try the hard tip pen too, but I’ve heard that the soft tip is better for beginners.

Tombow ABT N15 Dual Tip Brush Pen

A popular one in the bullet journal community. This pen is great for larger hand lettering. I really like the felt tip fineliner end too. I have my eye on the pastel versions as they look amazing!

Edding 1800 Profipen 0.1

Fineliner goals! I’ve tried a few fineliners and this one is the best so far. It’s great for writing, drawing, outlines, you name it. It is on the pricier side, but I’ve had mine for a long time and it still works. If you want a budget-friendly one though, you can’t go wrong with a Stabilo fineliner.

Crayola SuperTips

Some of the best felt tips pens out there. So versatile and so many colours available. They can be used for brush lettering too.

Stabilo Boss Pastel Highlighters

Pastel highlighters. Need I say more?!
