3 Easy Dashboard + Dutch Door Layouts to Try in Your Bullet Journal

[@myplace.08]

I'm just getting into journaling consistently. Never thought to redesign the layout of the journal. Completely new idea 😮 💡for me. Thank you.

[@ErinSmith]

I’m so glad I could help! 🥰 thanks for watching!

[@RusKms]

You have such creative ideas. I get inspired for my own journal every time I watch something from you!

[@ErinSmith]

🥹🥹 thank you so much!

[@racheljoyfairy]

I reeeeally love the 2nd layout. Only 4 pages for the whole month and they're all right there!

[@ErinSmith]

She’s so efficient! 😘🍄

[@debiulmer3672]

Love these

[@ErinSmith]

Thanks Debi! 🥰

[@blackgirlhappyplanner3482]

Great tips and tricks. Thank you

[@brendabignall9926]

Love the 3rd spread best. Lots of space to journal and plenty of pretty decorations!!! 🎉❤❤❤✨

[@ErinSmith]

It's my favourite too ❤✨

[@Sarina_Dear]

The first one is so pretty and incredibly functional The second one really reminds me of what I like about the Laural Denise planners but in bullet journal form- so much fun and customizable this way

[@ErinSmith]

Thanks Sarina! ❤✨

[@pine_and_pen]

YES! Thank you so much for sharing this! I’ve been seeing so many of these dashboard layouts but needed a little “how to” and this was perfect! 😊

[@ErinSmith]

I’m so glad you found it helpful Emilee! 🥰

[@TessaOswin]

I’ve found I prefer leave a bit extra and sticking it down rather than leaving a little paper ‘tuft’ that is often sharp then you put your wrist on it. If your cutting off multiple pages I leave one piece longer and stick it over all the tufts, particularly good if you good a horizontal tab cut away with a painted back pages (I’m probably not explaining this well I would put a photo but KZbin doesn’t allow that).

[@ErinSmith]

That’s a pro tip right there!

[@morganl2633]

These were amazing!! My current monthly looks similar to the third option you shared. I have my events at the top that flip throughout the month, then I use the bottom pages for a running to do list, reflections, memories, etc. Dutch doors are pretty incredible for really utilizing space and minimizing rewrites. Love them!

[@jennifergentry144]

These spreads are stunning! I love them all! Thank you so very much for sharing!

[@ErinSmith]

Thank you so much for watching Jennifer! 🥰

[@nr6404]

So beautiful I love them all.

[@ErinSmith]

Thank you so much!

[@ranalaham2522]

Thank you Erin. I loved the second spread ❤

[@ErinSmith]

Thanks for watching, Rana! 🥰

[@afrahc5465]

Absolutely love this layout ❤

[@ErinSmith]

Thank you so much Afrah!

[@natashialefay]

such cool ideas! the third version is similar to what I‘ve been working with for months. I don‘t need much space for each day so I fit a whole week onto one of the pages which means that often a whole month will fit onto 2 full pages and 2 dutch door half pages ♡

[@ErinSmith]

Isn’t it wild that removing part of the page can save you space? 😍 I love your system!

[@Haffina]

These are really awesome Erin.

[@ErinSmith]

Thanks Jen!

[@TessaOswin]

The last one could be a good one to add the tape at the end of the day so on days you need all the space you can you it but you can fill the space with pretty stuff if you don’t. If the tape has backing you could cut out a few motifs and have them in the back pocket to add when out and about.

[@ErinSmith]

That’s very smart! 🧠

[@christybrown2088]

Great dashboards! I like the first one I'm using that for june. Thanks!

[@ErinSmith]

I’d love to see it when you’re done Christy! 🥰

[@geebamom]

OMG! Printing forms on my thermal printer never occured to me! I have an IVY and it would work for this.

[@ErinSmith]

It makes life so much easier Carrie! 🥰

[@teddybeeandme]

I really loved the last spread 🥰 And the last PET tape gorgeous! .... guess what?... amazingly I don't own any of the tapes you used 🤣 I'm falling behind... I do have the same journal though

[@ErinSmith]

Haha they are all new releases! You aren’t behind at all 🥰

[@tempest510]

I love the second one, but it would take some conditioning on my part. The third one would fit right in with how I work in my notebook right now. :)

[@ErinSmith]

Ooooh time to try it? ;-)

[@tempest510]

@@ErinSmith indeed!

[@hillarybigham5872]

Oh my gosh! I have an idea for July now! It might be more work to begin with, but I want to try it out! Love your videos! I’ll be subbing to your channel soon! ❤❤

[@ErinSmith]

Oooh I’m really curious about your July idea Hillary! 👀

[@wilhelmina8843]

That loose handwriting for the second layout is really pretty actually.

[@blinddatereject]

What's the gray grid thing you are using under the paper? I rarely use my xacto knife because I don't want scratches on whatever is underneath the paper 😅

[@ErinSmith]

It’s a cutting mat! 🥰

[@blinddatereject]

@@ErinSmith Thank you!

[@Butterfly79797]

That first one is a waste of a page because you could fit it all on one page but I suppose it makes it interesting 🤔 the second one I love though

[@ErinSmith]

Depends how many tasks you need for a week!
