Welcome to another (short) blog related to What Is A BuJo: An Introduction. In that blog, I mentioned there that I will be adding a video and further explanation about layout in a separate blog. I hope this may clarify it more.

Here's a video how to make a simple spread.

S T A R T !

☆ It is envisioning the position of your elements before attaching or gluing them into the pages permanently.

☆ It is before you start attaching your elements to the paper. Layout is effective when you have many elements to put on the paper since it will give you the picture of the spread you will be making. In of basing making spreads in your feelings, it is better if you layout your spread when you are at the peak of your creativity.

☆ The main reason of it is to prevent mistakes. Yes, even in the actual inputting of the elements, you may still have mistakes but it reduces the chance of creating mistakes. Secondly, without a clear picture in mind, you will be confused what to put and what to eliminate especially if you have a lot of stationeries and a lot of things you want to include on the spread. Thirdly, if theme is present in your spread, you need to plan everything you will be including to ensure the relation of the elements to each other.

☆ Actually, it depends in the personality of a person. Some people don't work structurally. Meaning, they are spontaneously working to some things. If that is your personality, maybe this won't work to you effectively. It is better to skip the layout part then proceed attaching your elements on the paper and start experimenting your flavor. For someone who works structurally or procedurally, this can help you lessen the frustration of having errors. Also, this will guide you to the picture you are planning to make.

☆ It will always depend on your style. Experimenting is a good avenue to grow. I'll just give one pro for having a theme and a pro for themeless. For having a theme, it will help you to stick to one particular focus. This way, stationeries will be narrowed down depending on the chosen theme of yours. For settling with themeless, the freedom is all yours; everything can be used. You will not be limited to a particular idea but rather everything you want to include can be included.

E N D !

In bottomline, you have the full control of your bujo. Let's always journal memories!
