New month, new bullet journal! I was so so excited about this month’s theme and how adorable it turned out. This May Bullet Journal theme in Cactus’! This cactus bullet journal theme was so fun for doodles.

Title Page
I always start my month off with a title page. Something to start off the mood for the month. On the left page I will include a quote. Sometimes the quotes will be inspiring, sometimes they will be funny, sometimes they just give me an opportunity to practice my calligraphy! On the right page I include the month with doodles for whatever theme I have chosen for the month.
I am in love with the cactus doodles on the bottom. I mean look at that little heart cactus! I can’t stop coming back and staring at how cute they are!
May Monthly Log
My first page in my monthly is always a monthly overview. Sometimes I will do this as a line by line overview or alternatively a calendar style view. After I set up the monthly overview I will fill it in with anything for the month from my future log and I will copy over birthdays from my birthday spread
Goal Setting Spread
This goal setting page is something new I am trying this year. In my annual plan with me I set up a goal setting page. To keep myself on track to these goals I am going to set monthly goals under the same four categories. The four categories I am using for my goal setting are: Personal, Health, Finance, and Business.
Habit Tracker and Mood Tracker Spreads
The next page will be my habit tracker. I like to experiment layouts to keep it interesting. As the month progresses I will go in and highlight the date I completed the thing I wanted to. Then at the end of the month I can see how I did for the goals I was tracking.
A mood tracker is a fun way to keep track of how your month is going. They’re also fun because they are one of the most artistic spreads you can bring to your monthly bullet journal spreads!
Gratitude Log
Gratitude log is the last page I fill out every night before I go to bed. I like to have it to force myself to take a moment and reflect on the day and pick out one thing I was grateful for everyday.
Weekly Spread
Lastly when I am setting up a monthly spread I will always complete the first weekly spread for the month!
On my weekly I included a meal plan and a space for my to do list. On the top left I included a monthly overview.
