November is the quiet month that rarely stays quiet. The clocks change, the days get short, Thanksgiving lands at the end, and by the last week half your head is already in December. A November bullet journal is a good way to keep the month for yourself: a cozy cover, a calendar that shows where the busy days are, a gratitude page and a few trackers, set up before the holiday rush starts.
Below are 8 digital kits for the iPad that I’d use for that: fun November day stickers for the calendar, two big autumn sets for covers and weekly spreads, Thanksgiving stickers, a Scorpio season pack, washi strips and a small rainy-day set. After the list: 40 November bullet journal ideas for the cover, calendar, gratitude, trackers, doodles and lists, theme ideas, a calm weekly setup for the month and how to put it all together in GoodNotes.
The Best November Bullet Journal Kits I Found
I went through November, fall, autumn and Thanksgiving items on Creative Fabrica and kept only sets made for iPad apps like GoodNotes, Notability and ZoomNotes. Most results were clipart for Cricut, T-shirt designs, printable scrapbook paper or planners dated for years that are already over, so those are out, and so are Christmas packs (they have their own post). First come the sets for the calendar and the whole month, then Thanksgiving, then the smaller theme sets.
TL;DR: 8 sticker and washi kits for a November bullet journal on the iPad: fun November days for the calendar, two big autumn sets for covers and weekly spreads, Thanksgiving stickers, a Scorpio season pack, washi strips and a small rainy-day set. All work in GoodNotes or other iPad note apps; no Canva or KDP files, no Christmas packs, nothing dated to past years.

Best for the November calendar
1. November Wacky Holidays, 30 PNG Stickers
Layouts: 25+ fun November day stickers with datesFormat: Pre-cropped GoodNotes file + PNG
Best for: calendar decorators, fun-day fans, November journalers. Designed by digitalplannerland.
- 25+ stickers for fun November days, each with its date (Take a Hike Day, Pickle Day, Play Monopoly Day, Sandwich Day and more)
- Pre-cropped sticker file for GoodNotes (.goodnotes)
- Transparent PNG files for Notability and other iPad apps
- Small enough to sit inside a calendar box
This is the most November-specific set I found: instead of generic leaves, each sticker is a quirky holiday with its date, so you just drop them into the matching boxes of the monthly calendar. It turns a plain grid into something you actually want to look at in a gray month. It's also one of the most-saved sets on this list.
Best for an all-in-one autumn kit
2. FALL DIGITAL PLANNER Sticker Pack
Layouts: 750 autumn stickers: plaid and solid boxes, dots, labels, word art, 45 sticker sheetsFormat: PNG, JPG and PDF sheets + PDF booklet
Best for: heavy decorators, plaid lovers, all-season planners. Designed by Wetfish Designs.
- 750 autumn stickers: plaid and solid boxes, dots, labels, half circles and word art
- 45 sticker sheets as PNG and JPG, plus a 45-page PDF booklet
- Every sticker also saved on its own as PNG, JPG and PDF
- Made for GoodNotes, Notability, OneNote and other apps
If you want one kit that covers the cover page, the calendar, the trackers and four weekly spreads, this is it: the plaid and solid boxes in rust, mustard, navy and plum are the kind of functional stickers you reach for every week. It has the most saves of any set here and a 5-star review. It's big, so I'd add only the sheets you like to your sticker panel instead of all 45.
Best for a Thanksgiving spread
3. Very Berry Thanksgiving Digital Planner Stickers
Layouts: 350+ hand-drawn Thanksgiving stickers: turkey, pie, corn, leaves, mittens, framesFormat: Hyperlinked GoodNotes sticker book + PNG, 150 DPI
Best for: Thanksgiving planners, bright color lovers, heavy decorators. Designed by NDP Design Studio.
- Over 350 hand-drawn stickers: turkey, pie, corn, candy apples, mittens, a football, leaves and frames
- Hyperlinked sticker book for GoodNotes with every sticker already placed
- Individual PNGs, placement guides and a blank sticker book for Notability, Noteshelf and ZoomNotes
- Color hex codes included; 150 DPI, made for screens rather than printing
Most Thanksgiving sets are rust and beige; this one leans into berry pink, plum and teal, which keeps a November page from looking muddy. The turkey, the pie and the frames are enough for a whole holiday spread with a menu and a guest list. I'd pick it if Thanksgiving is the center of your November.
Best for weekly spreads
4. Thanksgiving Moments Digital Stickers
Layouts: 50+ stickers: Thanksgiving scenes, checklist boxes, day labels, headers, washi stripsFormat: Pre-cropped GoodNotes and ZoomNotes files + PNG sheets
Best for: weekly spread fans, Thanksgiving planners, functional decorators. Designed by Bren Wotherspoon.
- 50+ pre-cropped stickers: Thanksgiving picture boxes (turkey, pies, pumpkins), checklist boxes and coffee and candle accents
- Day labels Monday to Sunday, a weekend banner and headers (To Do, Remember, Work, This Week, Next Week, Notes)
- Glitter washi strips in sage and orange
- GoodNotes and ZoomNotes files plus PNG sheets
This is a whole weekly kit rather than a pile of decorations: picture boxes for the top of the page, day labels, headers and checklists, so the Thanksgiving week is set up in a few taps. The muted sage, rust and cream palette is calm, which I like for a week that's usually busy. Pair it with the Very Berry set if you also want a holiday page.
Best for a soft floral theme
5. Autumn Florals Digital Stickers
Layouts: 50+ stickers: floral and pumpkin boxes, checklists, day labels, headers, washi stripsFormat: Pre-cropped GoodNotes and ZoomNotes files + PNG sheets
Best for: floral style fans, pink and coral lovers, weekly spread fans. Designed by Bren Wotherspoon.
- 50+ pre-cropped stickers: floral and pumpkin picture boxes, a "Hello Autumn" card and a coffee cup
- Day labels in two styles, a weekend banner and headers (To Do, Remember, This Week, Next Week)
- Checklist boxes and washi strips in coral, sage and mustard
- GoodNotes and ZoomNotes files plus PNG sheets
Same handy weekly layout as the Thanksgiving Moments set, but in coral, pink and sage with roses on the pumpkins. If you want November to look cozy without plaid or turkeys, this is the one I'd choose, and the "Hello Autumn" card works as a small cover. It's the most-saved of this designer's autumn sets I looked at.
Best for washi headers
6. 12 Thanksgiving Washi Tape PNG Bundle
Layouts: 12 autumn washi strips: polka dot, quatrefoil, stripes, pumpkin floralsFormat: PNG, 300 DPI
Best for: header makers, minimal decorators, warm palette fans. Designed by Heyv Studio.
- 12 washi tape strips: polka dots, quatrefoil, stripes and white pumpkin florals
- Brown, rust and olive palette
- PNG files, 300 DPI, transparent background
- Instructions for adding them as stickers in GoodNotes on the iPad
Washi is the quickest way to make a digital page look finished: one strip over a header and the spread already has a theme. These twelve are muted enough to sit on every November page, from the calendar to a gratitude log, without fighting the other stickers. A small set, but one I'd use more than most big kits.
Best for a zodiac theme
7. Scorpio Season, 36 Stickers
Layouts: 36 Scorpio season stickers (October 23 to November 21): quotes, fashion, zodiac iconsFormat: Pre-cropped GoodNotes file + PNG
Best for: zodiac fans, Scorpio birthdays, fashion sticker fans. Designed by digitalplannerland.
- 36 Scorpio stickers for October 23 to November 21: quotes, fashion pieces, zodiac symbols and a scorpion
- Pre-cropped sticker file for GoodNotes (.goodnotes)
- Transparent PNG files for other iPad apps
- Rose, black and silver palette
A November theme doesn't have to be leaves: a zodiac cover is a popular bujo idea, and Scorpio season covers most of the month. The quotes ("Unstoppable", "A New Era of Me") work as page titles, and the set has a 5-star review. The same designer has a Sagittarius pack for the last days of November if you want to switch mid-month.
Best for a rainy-day theme
8. Autumn Rainy Day Digital Stickers
Layouts: 18 umbrella stickersFormat: PNG, 300 DPI
Best for: weather trackers, rainy-day fans, minimal decorators. Designed by Wetfish Designs.
- 18 umbrella stickers in mustard, plum, sage, navy and orange
- PNG files, 300 DPI, transparent background
- Made for GoodNotes, Notability and other digital planners
- An add-on from a larger rainy autumn kit by the same designer
November is often more rain than leaves, and these umbrellas are the simplest way to show it: one umbrella on each rainy day of the calendar and you have a weather tracker by the end of the month. It's a small set, which is the point: it adds a motif without a whole new palette. I'd pair it with the washi strips above.

November Bullet Journal Theme Ideas
A theme keeps a month from looking random: you pick a palette and two or three motifs, then reuse them on every page. A few that work well for November:
- Cozy reading nook: books, mugs, candles and blankets in cream, brown and rust.
- Harvest: pumpkins, squash, wheat and corn in mustard and orange.
- Thanksgiving: pie, turkey and table settings, in classic browns or brighter berry tones.
- Rainy autumn: umbrellas, rain boots and gray-blue skies.
- Scorpio season: deep red, black and silver with zodiac symbols.
- Soft florals: chrysanthemums and roses on pumpkins in coral and sage.
- Minimal: one accent color, a single oak leaf, lots of white space.
If you want a palette ready to paste into GoodNotes, my GoodNotes color palettes have hex codes for warm autumn looks.
Cozy Before the Holidays: A Calm November in Four Weeks
November is the last calm stretch before December, and the journal can protect that calm instead of adding to the list. In 2026 the month starts on a Sunday, the clocks go back that same day in the US, and Thanksgiving is on Thursday, November 26. A simple rhythm for the four weeks:
- Week 1, settle in: make the cover and the calendar, start the gratitude log and a sleep tracker for the time change.
- Week 2, slow down: one weekly spread with only the essentials, plus the fall bucket list and the reading list.
- Week 3, plan Thanksgiving: the menu, the guest list and the cooking timeline, so the holiday week has no surprises.
- Week 4, look ahead: the November review, an early gift list and a short brain dump for December.
This is where a digital bullet journal helps most. You duplicate last week’s page instead of redrawing it, and sticker sets with day labels, headers and checklists turn a weekly spread into a few taps. If a week goes sideways, you skip it and duplicate the next one: no half-empty pages left in the middle of the notebook. When November ends, my December bullet journal ideas pick up from there.
What to Include in a November Bullet Journal Spread
A November setup that covers the essentials without becoming a second job:
- a cover page with the month name and your theme;
- a monthly calendar with events, deadlines and Thanksgiving;
- a gratitude log, the page that fits November best;
- two or three trackers (mood, sleep or spending are the most useful this month);
- weekly spreads, set up one at a time;
- a short end-of-month review.
Everything else, like a Thanksgiving menu, a movie list or a Black Friday budget, is extra. Add it if you’ll enjoy filling it in, skip it if it feels like homework. For the money side of the season, my digital budget planners have proper spending trackers.
Digital or Paper Bullet Journal in November?
Paper wins on feel, and some people love drawing an autumn spread by hand with real leaves pressed into it. Digital wins on time and flexibility: you can duplicate pages, move a sticker instead of erasing, change a color in a second and carry the journal on the iPad you already take everywhere. Stickers and washi don’t run out, and the same November kit works again next year.
A digital bullet journal is still a PDF or a notebook page, not an app: it won’t sync with your phone calendar or send reminders. Keep reminders in your calendar app and use the journal for planning, lists and reflection.
How to Set Up a November Bullet Journal in GoodNotes
- Create a new notebook with dotted paper, or import an undated journal PDF (Share → GoodNotes, or + → Import).
- Add a monthly calendar page and write in the dates: November 2026 starts on a Sunday and has 30 days.
- Open the sticker file (a .goodnotes sticker book or a folder of PNGs) and add the stickers you’ll reuse to the Elements or sticker panel, so they’re one tap away.
- Build the cover with stickers first, then add the month name with the pen or the text tool.
- Make one weekly spread with day labels and headers, then duplicate it for each week.
- Use the outline or tabs to link the cover, calendar, gratitude log and weeks for quick jumping.
For more sticker sets that work all year, see my GoodNotes stickers. If you’d rather keep a full notebook cover for the season, my GoodNotes covers post has autumn options, and the digital monthly planners give you a ready calendar if you’d rather not draw one.

FAQ
What should I put in my November bullet journal?
Start with a cover, a monthly calendar, a gratitude log, two or three trackers and weekly spreads. Add a short review at the end of the month. Thanksgiving pages, a bucket list or a Black Friday budget are optional.
What is a good theme for November?
Popular November themes are a cozy reading nook, harvest, Thanksgiving, rainy autumn, Scorpio season, soft florals and minimal. Pick a palette of two or three colors and reuse the same motifs on every page so the month looks connected.
What should I draw on a November cover page?
Falling leaves, pumpkins, a mug and candle, umbrellas, a chrysanthemum wreath or the zodiac sign of the season all work. If you don’t like drawing, build the cover from stickers and add the month name with a large hand-lettered or typed title. Ideas 1–7 above are a ready list.
How do I make a November mood tracker?
Draw or place 30 small shapes, one for each day (leaves on a branch, pumpkins or acorns), and pick five colors for your moods with a small key at the side. Color one shape each evening. On a digital page you can duplicate one leaf 30 times instead of drawing each.
When should I set up my November spread?
Make the cover and calendar in the last days of October, then add each weekly spread on the Sunday before that week. Leave the Thanksgiving pages for the third week, when plans are clearer.
Can I use digital stickers in any bullet journal app?
Pre-cropped PNG stickers work in almost any iPad note app that can insert images, including GoodNotes, Notability, Noteshelf and ZoomNotes. A .goodnotes sticker file opens only in GoodNotes; in other apps, use the PNG folder that comes with most sets.
Final Thoughts
A November bullet journal works best as the calm month before the holidays: a cozy cover, a calendar with the fun days marked, a gratitude log and a weekly spread you set up one Sunday at a time. If you want one kit for the whole month, start with the Fall Digital Planner Sticker Pack or the November Wacky Holidays set for the calendar, and add the Thanksgiving stickers when the holiday gets close.
