c/bullet-journaling

Just spent an hour carefully drawing straight lines in my bullet journal with a ruler, only to have my dog's tail wag and turn it into a 'creative' wavy border masterpiece!

Serious question, when did bullet journaling drift from pure function to full-blown artistry?

I miss when my pages were quick scribbles that genuinely tracked my life. Now I catch myself designing spreads that are too pretty to actually write in.

Pro tip: I rely on intricate bullet journal layouts for my home redesign, while my buddy thinks it's too much effort. Thoughts?

I've been using my bujo to map out every step of redesigning my home office, from color swatches to furniture placement timelines. My friend argues that this level of detail kills creativity and that winging it leads to better results. I find the structure keeps me on budget and prevents decision fatigue, lol. Curious to hear how others balance planning with spontaneity in their home redesigns.
