DAYS OF THE WEEK CALLIGRAPHY TUTORIAL
A great way to learn calligraphy is by practicing writing new words. I want to help you do the same, and that’s why I created this FREE calligraphy practice sheet where I show you how to letter the days of the week.
Last month, I decided to give the bullet journal system a try again. I’m enjoying this planning system because it’s helping me a lot to stay organized and more productive. One thing that has me excited is all the ways that I can apply my calligraphy and lettering skills to my bullet journal.
These practice worksheets will help you learn and improve your calligraphy so you can use your skill not only in your bullet journaling, but everywhere like making cards, signs, or simply note-taking. There are so many different ways you can use your calligraphy skills.

SUPPLIES I RECOMMEND FOR THIS FREE CALLIGRAPHY PRACTICE SHEET
These are all the supplies I used on the video above:
- Free Days of the Week Calligraphy Practice Worksheet. You can find it inside my Resource Library. Fill out the form at the end of this blog post to get access to it.
- Paper: I recommend HP Premium32 Paper because if of higher quality, which is excellent for your brush pens. Or you can also use tracing paper and put it on to of your worksheet to practice. This way, you only need to print the sheet once and still practice several times. You can use any printer paper if you are using a regular pen. I ONLY recommend regular paper if you are doing Faux Calligraphy. Regular printer paper can shorten the life of your brush pens.
- Brush Pens (Small Tip): here are the different pens I’m using on the video and that I recommend for beginners.
- Monday: Tombow Fudenosuke Brush Pen – Hard Tip
- Tuesday: Pentel Fude Brush Pen
- Wednesday: Marvy Uchida Le Pen Flex
- Thursday: Tombow Twin Tip – black side
- Friday: Tombow Twin tip – gray side
- Saturday: Zebra Funwari Brush Pen
- Sunday: Zebra Funwari Brush Pen

HOW TO USE THE FREE PRACTICE WORKSHEETS?
- Fill out the form at the bottom of this post or go to my free resource library if you already have the password to get in. Once youโre there, select the practice sheet youโd like to download. For this tutorial select the: DAYS OF THE WEEK CALLIGRAPHY PRACTICE SHEET.
- The worksheet will be an instant download, and you can print it at home or at a local printer store or library.
- Learn how you can print at home for FREE or at a very affordable price. I wrote a whole blog post about it because I’ve saved SO MUCH money using this printing service at home.
- I use this inexpensive laser printer. (This printer is black and white. But thatโs all you need at the moment to print the practice sheets). If you prefer a color printer, this is another inexpensive option
- Set your printer scaling to โFit Page.โ
- Once you’ve printed your worksheet, you’re ready to get your practice going!
- IMPORTANT: Slow down! As you are practicing, make sure to take your time. Doing calligraphy is not meant to be fast.
- REMEMBER: use light pressure for the upstrokes (when you’re moving the pen upwards) and heavy pressure for the downstrokes (when you’re moving the pen upwards). Find a comfortable position and take breaks if you need to. Lift your pen between each stroke as you’re practicing the letterforms. You can also adjust your page anytime to get a better angle.
