I’m getting ready to start a new journal and it made me think of my yearly spread. I should say, it made me think of how much I didn’t use it throughout the year.

My current spread isn’t totally useless, but after February I stopped referencing and updating it completely. Not horrible, but not the best use of space either. It has events and appointments for each month but the biggest thing I miss (from a regular planner) is that total year calendar view.
(If you’re wondering what that green semi-circle is at the top right of my page, check out Jen’s tab hack!)
Keeping that in mind, I was on a mission to find a yearly spread for my new bujo that worked for me and is actually functional. Who better to share my findings with than you all?!

I really love how this is broken into two parts, which is easily transferable from notebook to notebook

With so many awesome options one of these is bound to work for me! Do you use a yearly spread? What does yours look like?
These are great ideas! I’m pinning that for my next bulletjournal — I always lack inspirations for spreads! 😉 Thanks a lot for sharing all of these! ♥
