I finally broke down and bought a $25 stencil set for my bujo

I was always against using stencils because I thought they were cheating or whatever. But after messing up my habit tracker headers for the third month in a row, I caved and got a set off Amazon for $25. It came with like 10 different circle and border shapes. Honestly it saved my journaling flow because now I don't spend 20 minutes trying to draw a straight line. The downside is the stencil slides around on the page if you don't hold it down tight. I already smudged ink under one because I got lazy. Has anyone else found a way to keep these things from moving so much?

Man that sliding thing drives me nuts lol. I actually put a little strip of washi tape on the back of mine to give it some grip and it helped a ton. Not perfect but way better than the plastic sliding all over the place. Also learned the hard way about smudging, happens to the best of us. Glad the stencils are working out for you though, they really do save time once you get the hang of holding them down.

Right?! It's like everything needs a little hack to stay put these days.
