Here’s a completely different BuJo theme for you to try this August. Inspired by the Northern lights, this theme will appeal to the wanderer in you. To make it super simple, you can use multi-colour paper to create the northern lights lit night sky. Then, use white pen to make those little stars. Alternatively, you can also use water colours to paint the sky.
Once you are done with that, all you need to do is draw those beautiful tress. They are super simple to make. Just start with a triangle, then add a scribbled line at the bottom and work your way up, then add a zigzag line on either side to make branches then add a trunk and you are done!
