Fall is in the air, and that means it’s time for my September bullet journal setup! This month’s spreads are filled with cozy autumn vibes and a touch of playful creativity. I went with a warm floral theme for my cover page, a full two-page calendar (because I can’t live without it!), a mood tracker that blooms daily, and a Tetris-inspired habit tracker that turns progress into a game. It’s the perfect mix of structure and seasonal charm to start the fall off right.

September Cover Page
I kicked off my September bullet journal setup with a floral cover page in rich fall tones — think olive green, mustard yellow, and warm burgundy. The florals add a touch of elegance and help transition my journal from summer to autumn beautifully. It’s simple but full of cozy energy, and it makes me smile every time I open my journal.
Monthly Calendar Spread
If you’ve followed me for a while, you know a full two-page calendar layout is a non-negotiable in my bullet journal. I love having plenty of room to write down plans, appointments, and content ideas. For September, I added fun washi tape around the border to tie it back to the floral cover page without making it too busy — just enough to bring those fall vibes to life.
Mood Tracker
This month’s mood tracker might be my favorite part! I created a floral-themed design where I’ll freehand draw a new flower every day and color it to reflect my mood. By the end of the month, the page will bloom into a colorful garden of emotions — such a fun and creative way to check in with myself throughout September.
Habit Tracker
For my habit tracker, I went with something totally different — a Tetris-inspired layout! Each habit is represented by a Tetris block, and as I fill in my habits throughout the month, I’ll slowly complete lines. Once I clear enough lines, I’ve “won” the game — and yes, I reward myself with a little prize! It’s a playful twist that keeps me motivated and makes habit tracking way more fun.
