5 Instagrammers to Follow If You're Bullet Journal Curious

Have you heard of bullet journaling? The latest trend in list making, it really just requires a notebook, a pen, and maybe a ruler if you're a stickler for straight lines. Part planner, part diary, all bullet journals start with an index, and the rest is up to you. You can add yearly overviews, monthly calendars, daily habits, shopping lists, class notes, doodles—you name it. Of course, some get pretty fancy with it, and the #bulletjournal hashtag on Instagram is a source of inspiration (or for some, intimidation). If you're curious about this method of keeping your life organized, here are five Instagrammers who make notebooks look noteworthy.
