What is Grid Journaling?

If you're looking for a new way to explore your creative side, consider our free Grid Journal Mini Course. This technique is a fantastic way to experiment with patterns and colors and bring out new ideas that you may not have considered otherwise.

So, what exactly is grid journaling? ๐Ÿค”Simply put, it's a method of creating patterns and designs using a grid-based journal. You can start with a blank journal, or use a pre-printed grid journal if you prefer. Then, draw a grid on each page of the journal, using either a pen or pencil. Everyone makes their grids unique to their style, you can do your lines at an angle, make a circle, or whatever your heart desires! Just make sure you are giving yourself a small space to work in.


After your grid is drawn, the fun begins! You can use a variety of materials to fill in each square of the grid. Some popular options include colored pencils, markers, watercolors, or even collage materials like paper or fabric. Start imagining the wide array of interesting patterns and designs you can explore within each square!ย 

As you work on your grid journal, you may notice new patterns and color combinations you haven't considered before. This is because the grid format forces you to think more carefully about the placement of each element in your design. It can also help you to break down complex designs into smaller, more manageable pieces, which can make it easier to experiment with different patterns and color schemes.


Another benefit of grid journaling is that it's a great way to track your creative progress over time. As you work on different pages of your journal, you can see how your style evolves and changes. Revisit previous pages and use them as inspiration for future projects. Pretty awesome, right?

Grid journaling is not about creating perfect, polished designs. It's about exploring your creativity and having fun with the process.๐Ÿฅณ๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐ŸŽจ Embrace the messy and imperfect! ๐Ÿ’•
