Free Printable Dot Grid Paper For Bullet Journals And Notes

dot grid paper

For the longest time I’ve tried to write in straight lines on a blank page.

I always ended up writing SOMETHING lopsided, which is when I discovered dot grid paper (basically when I started bullet journaling). Now, every time I try to bullet journal or simply jot some notes down, I always use a dot grid page to make sure everything stays nice and neat (and readable!)

Dot grid paper helps you create awesome planner pages and I love it even for creating simple to-do lists.

Dot grid paper

Dot grid paper is great if you want to start getting into bullet journaling, but you don’t quite want to invest in a notebook just yet. And if you are really careful and don’t want to mess up in your precious bullet journal then you can print out a few loose dot grid pages and practice all your doodles on there.

It’s a genius idea if you don’t want to mess up in your bullet journal or even if you run out of pages.

It’s great for practicing calligraphy, your handwriting, and hand lettering. It’s also useful for taking simple notes that you can keep in a binder (or your favorite planner).

What is dot grid paper?

Dot grid paper is simply paper with dots (or ‘bullets’) that are evenly spaced apart so you get exact spacing and measurements that make it useful for lost of things including calligraphy, drafting, bullet journaling, or even doodling.

The grid paper is great for when you want to draw something with  straight lines. It’s also useful paper to practice your hand lettering and calligraphy. Even if it’s for working out math problems, it’s also great for that.


Have You Started A Bullet Journal Yet? 

I recently created a set of bullet journal printables that I think you’ll LOVE.

The Bullet Journal Starter Kit is a pre-made bullet journal for people like you. Perfect if you think you aren’t that artistic or don’t want to spend a lot of time drawing monthly or weekly layouts.

It’s a steal of 80 BEAUTIFUL pages to help keep your life on track.


Lined paper

You can also download a simple lined page. You can use this page for writing down notes, or like the other ones, practicing your writing. Sometimes we don’t want some basic notebook paper to write down notes in, but something cleaner and simpler. You can always download the lined paper and see if you find it useful.

I love using it to practice my calligraphy with my set of Tombow bullet journal dual brush pens. It helps me keep my lines even and my letter sizes the same.

If you’re working on writing and calligraphy drills then this simple lined paper can be great for you! 🙂

I decided to make two sizes for each type of page to make it easier and more convenient for all my fellow planner lovers out there. The pages  come in both the standard letter sized paper and A5 page size as well!

You can hole punch each page to fit them in your planner or they can even go in your household binder (you do have one of those, right? If not, CLICK HERE :))

Dot paper notebook

A lot of people have asked me about my dot grid paper notebook. While your regular bullet journal notebooks are mostly case wrapped or perfect bound, you don’t see many that are spiral bound.

Lately I’ve been experimenting with some that are spiral bound, and I LOVE how flat it lays and how flexible it is.

Its the B5 spiral version I found on Amazon which I absolutely love. You can see my bullet journal setup to see how I was able to create my weekly spreads and habit trackers on the dot grid paper notebook paper.

The results are pretty great if I do say so myself. 🙂

Printable dot paper for bullet journals

I think I might have said this already but goodness, some lose leaf printable dot paper for bullet journals can be a life saver if you’re out of paper, your notebook is full, or if you want to try out doodling that requires a certain structure, like creating banners and structured speech bubbles of text boxes.

I’ve found that printable dot paper helps my sketches and doodles come along A LOT better, since they provide guidance and structure to my artwork and journaling!
