Easy Tutorial For Snowdrop Drawing
The snowdrop doodle is like a quiet little hug for your bujo pages — soft, simple, and totally charming.
Snowdrops are one of those flowers that feel like they come with a story.
Tiny and graceful, they bloom when the world still feels cold and sleepy, like little signs that light is coming back.
So when I started drawing snowdrop doodles in my bullet journal, I noticed something — they instantly made my spreads feel more peaceful. Soft lines, gentle curves, and this dreamy, minimalist vibe that works with just about any layout.
If you love adding a seasonal or nature-inspired touch to your bullet journal or junk journal, the snowdrop doodle is a must.
It’s the perfect doodle for winter-to-spring transitions, for days you need a little calm, or even as a theme for those “just breathe” weeks.
Where to Use Your Snowdrop Flower Drawing
This tiny bloom is surprisingly versatile.
Here’s some fun ways to use your snowdrop flower drawing simple in bullet journals, art journals, or anything in between:
- Border Corners: One small snow drop doodle in each corner of a spread adds charm without overwhelming the page.
- Mini Dividers: Use a little snowdrops drawing between days of the week or between journal prompts.
- Quote Pages: These look so good around a quiet quote or affirmation.
- Junk Journal Layers: Try sketching a snowdrop flower line drawing on tea-stained paper or layering over some vintage ephemera.
- Daily Logs: Draw one bloom per day, then color the petal to match your mood.
- Envelope Art or Mini Notes: A snow drop flower drawing on happy mail? Yes please.
Snowdrops don’t scream for attention, which makes them easy to tuck in just about anywhere.
Tips for an Easy Snowdrop Flower Drawing
If you’re ready to add a few of these into your next journal spread, here’s a few fun ideas to play with:
- Go Light With Ink: A thinner pen makes the delicate shape pop. Or try grey instead of black for a softer look.
- Pair With Washi: Snowdrop doodles look adorable next to muted florals or vintage-style washi tape.
- Draw in Clusters: One snowdrop drawing is cute, but a little group of them really captures their natural vibe.
- Tilt the Blooms: They look prettiest when slightly drooped to the side — adds movement and makes it feel real.
- Add Snowy Touches: A few little dots around them for snow, or a soft blue shadow beneath.

How to Draw A Snowdrop Doodle
Follow along with our easy Snowdrop doodle tutorial. Simply follow each step by drawing the part of the doodle in GOLD.
Instructions
Step 1
Decide where you want your snowdrop doodle on the page and start by drawing the stem of the bloom on the left side, curve it slightly to the left.
Step 2
Next, draw a drop a little down from the top of the stem that your first snowdrop petals will connect to.
Step 3
Then draw three petals in a bell shape to form your first snowdrop drawing.
Step 4
Now draw the stem for your second snowdrop, this one will be the bloom on the right. Curve this stem slightly to the right.
Step 5
Create your second drop just like you did in step 2 for this bloom.
Step 6
Then draw the petals for this bloom. I made these smaller and more compact than the first bloom to create the effect that this flower had not yet fully opened.
Step 7
Next, draw the drop and petals for your middle bloom.
Step 8
Time to draw the last stem next. You can also add leaves to the bottom of the snowdrop in this step if you like.
Step 9
The last step is to have fun and color your Snowdrop drawing.
Bullet journal Snowdrop Flower Drawing
There’s something kind of magical about snowdrops. They’re not loud or bold — they’re quiet strength and soft beauty.
And honestly, I think we all need a bit of that in our lives sometimes.
A snowdrop flower drawing adds a lovely, understated elegance to your bullet journal. They’re delicate without being fussy, and their shape is so unique — that little hanging bloom like a tiny lantern.
So if your bullet journal has been feeling a bit too sharp or busy, adding in some snowdrop doodle simple lines can totally shift the energy.
They also carry this beautiful meaning — hope, renewal, and quiet beginnings.
Which makes them perfect for:
- New month covers
- Intention setting pages
- Reflection spreads
- Winter-to-spring transitions
- Mood tracker blooms
Basically, if you’re creating a page that’s a little dreamy or a little reflective, drawing snowdrop flowers is a sweet way to bring it all together.
