Plan Your Best Year Yet: Our 2026 Bullet Journal Inspired Planner Is Here

Bring in the New Year with Our New 2026 Bullet Journal-Inspired Planner

If you think it’s still too early to start thinking about a new productivity planner for the new year, did you know there are only 80 days until the start of 2026? That’s only 12 weekends away!

That sounds a little scary, but that means we’ll have a fresh start pretty soon to set new goals and intentions.

The best way to do that is to use a bullet journal inspired planner that will support you through the new year and all the ups and downs that follow.

I’ve been bullet journaling since 2019, so I know what it’s like to have a creative journal that helps me feel more organized, so I’ve done my best to translate that feeling into the new 2026 Bullet Journal Inspired Planner!

In this blog post, you’ll learn what makes this 2026 bullet journal planner special, whether it’s right for you, and whether you should go for an undated version instead.

What Makes Our 2026 Bullet Journal Planner Special

This aesthetic planner is not like any other planner because this planner is fully illustrated and put together in-house by Tablet & Quill’s team of one.

The best thing about having a bullet journal is the flexibility to try different spreads and layouts, but that’s also what can make it difficult to keep up with. When you’re overwhelmed with spread and layout ideas, trying to pick what your journal should look like can become a chore you don’t want to deal with.

That’s why this creative productivity planner is the perfect mix between a bullet journal and a minimal dated planner.

Much like the themes people have in their bullet journal monthly spreads, every month in this 2026 planner has its own unique monthly theme. Each of these themes is (or will be) featured as sticker sheets, DIY color sticker sheets, and die-cut stickers exclusive to this shop.

Plus, there are rotating weekly spreads so you don’t get bored using the same layout week after week. Similar to a standard dot grid journal, the pages in this planner are 5mm dot grid, so you know exactly what to expect.

This bullet journal-inspired planner also features a two-page future log spread for 2026, a goal-setting page at the beginning, and a reflection page at the end.

Every month features:

• Calendar spread
• Space for notes next to the calendar
• One line a day for gratitude
• Mood log you can color in with crayons or color pencils
• Habit tracker
• Budget tracker
• Brain dump page
• 4-5 weekly spreads (depending on what’s needed)
  

I’m excited to put together a planner with the ready-to-use layouts planners are known for, combined with the creativity and artistry bullet journals are now known for.

Creative Planners Designed for Busy People

If you are the type of person who loves bullet journal spreads people post online, but don’t have the time or energy to set up an elaborate spread, then this bullet journal-inspired planner is exactly the one you need.

The 2026 productivity planner is ideal for anyone busy balancing work and family while trying to find the time for creativity and self-care.

I’m guilty of needing my journal or planner to look aesthetic to use it, and I know I’m not the only one! By having a ready-to-use planner, you can get right into organizing your tasks and to-dos without worrying about making your journal or planner look enticing enough to keep you using it.

There’s space in this planner for all your tasks and memory-keeping notes. The color-your-own mood log also gives you a few minutes to slow down and be mindful while you color a doodle corresponding to your moods. And if you need ideas on what to write about when your life feels boring, I’ve got you covered with this blog post!

This bullet journal-inspired planner helps you stay productive, creative, and mindful, no matter how hectic your schedule gets.

Dated vs Undated Bullet Journal Planners: Which Fits You Best?

Using a planner can set the tone for the year, so choosing the right planner is important. Most planners fall within the dated or the undated category, so which planner is the right one for you?

Both undated and dated planners at Tablet & Quill feature beautiful monthly themes for every month. They come from the same manufacturer, so both planners are sized 6” x 9” (small enough to throw in a bag), are matte soft cover, and have 90 GSM paper (perfect for ballpoint pens, gel pens, and color pencils).

Both dated and undated planners include a goal-setting page at the beginning of the year and a reflection page at the end of the year. Both are 5mm dot grid.

If it’s difficult for you to keep up with planners and end up taking breaks between months, an undated planner is a good option for you. The undated planners at Tablet & Quill cover a six-month period, so you’re able to try out this style of planner without committing to an entire year.

However, if you’re ready to use a planner without doing any work at all and the thought of filling in dates yourself seems annoying, then the 2026 dated planner will cover your planning needs for an entire year while keeping your days organized and on-task.
