Hello guys ☾ and happy Sunday!
today I would like to talk a little bit about cheap but good materials for bullet journaling. I have some favorite pens, markers and cute stationery stuff that I would like to show you. In addition, I added my opinion and some pros and cons.
Favorite and helpful stationery stuff for the bullet journal under 20€
PIGMA MICRON Fineliner
I usually take the set with 6 black fineliners (size 005, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8). These sizes are very practical for the bullet journal, for sketches, handlettering or doodles.
Pro: Different sizes, opaque black, do not press through 160 gsm paper
Contra: -
Prize: approx. 10,45€
They are available here: amazon
Tombow Brush Pens
These two brush pens are so handy. I do handlettering with them, but also paint doodles. The different tips bring different styles into my bujo.
Pro: soft and hard tip, opaque black, do not press through 160 gsm paper
Contra: You need a little practice for lettering
Prize: approx. 5,65€ (per set)
They are available here: amazon, Tombow shop
White gel pens
I still use these brands for white pens. They work reliably and the white is very opaque. The gelly roller from Sakura is super handy. The Acrylograph pen from Archer&Olive works just great.
Pro: Brilliant white for black or kraft paper pages.
Contra: the Acrylograph pen is only available as a set.
Prize: approx. 6,99€ (per set, Sakura gelly roll)
They are available here: amazon, A&O Shop
Foldback clips
I just love these clips, they look very cute in pictures and keep my notebook open while I work in the journal. They can also be used as additional clips for photos.
Pro: Helpful holder, beautiful and aesthetic
Contra: Cheap clips quickly break down as well
Prize: from EUR 5 up (per set)
They are available here: etsy, amazon
Aesthetic stick scissors
These scissors are really my favorite stationery piece right now. I find them very aesthetic, beautiful and practical for smaller works in the Bujo & scrapbook.
Pro: Perfect for small cutting jobs
Contra: You do not necessarily need
Prize: from EUR 5 up
They are available here: etsy
Pastel Highlighter
Stabilo Highlighters are a real must for me in Bullet Journal or Studygram. You can mark important things, create great headlines and fill spreads with color.
Pro: beautiful colors, different sizes
Contra: Some colors are very dark, so you can't see what's written very well.
Prize: from EUR 7 up (per set)
They are available here: stationery shop, stabilo shop, amazon
Pencils
I personally always need good pencils for doodling or sketching in my bujo. For this I use different brands and sizes: Tombow Mono 100 "H", Faber-Castell size 0.5 and 0.35.
Pro: No smearing, no push-through, Faber-Castell is refillable, good handling
Contra: -
Prize: from EUR 3 up
They are available here: stationery shop, amazon
Tombow ABT Brush Pens
You simply can't go wrong with Tombows. I always use them for headlines, as highlighters, for doodles or shading. It's really a high quality product!
Pro: Many different soft colors
Contra: The price per pen is rather high
Prize: 3,90€
They are available here: stationery shop, Tombow shop, amazon
Zebra Mildliner Brush Pens
Not only the colors of Zebra are always beautiful and totally soft, the tip of these brush pens is unique. Perfect for handlettering and calligrapy.
Pro: Many different soft colors
Contra: The price per pen is rather high

Zebra Mildliner double ended highlighter
I love all the colors from the Zebra Mildliner. In addition, the markers are simply high quality, practical and versatile and beautifully bright.

Contra: -

Contra: You need to practice a little
Prize: 12€ (24 pens in set)
