How to: Wicked-ify your journal this November!

If you’re mourning the loss of Eras Tour friendship bracelets, stop worrying and start crafting again! This Wicked-themed bead set has everything you could need to jazz up your phone case, make cute bracelets that represent your inner witch, or even decorate your journal. Try matching your phone strap to your journal spread for the month, or coordinating it to your favourite outfit. Make it a full day of Wicked-themed activities! On release day, get your friends together for a crafting session making your bracelets or phone straps, then wear them as you head to the cinema in your best Wicked-themed outfits. 

Something a bit more stationery-focused is this set from Waterstones, which includes 27 different stickers to use in your spreads. The stickers cover everything you could need in Oz, from Glinda’s wand, to Elphaba’s hat, and so much more! There are also exclusive cards included in the set, meaning you can make a journal spread that is completely unique. 

Why not try making a junk journal spread about Wicked, using our Ultimate Junk Journal? Keep any memorabilia or ephemera you get, including your cinema ticket, a piece from a box of popcorn, or any pink or green scraps you happen to find, and stick them all down in your junk journal. Add in some straw for the Scarecrow, tin for the Tin Man, and a mane for the Lion, and you’re all ready to go. Make sure you leave space in your journal spread to write your review of the film, as a fun way to remember the experience.

If you want to include Wicked in a more subtle way, why not try picking up one of our Pink or Green pre-made 2026 Journals? This year we’ve included two new colours, Olive and Dusty Rose, which fit perfectly with an Elphaba and Glinda theme. If neither of those two witches float your boat, try our Natural colour for a Scarecrow theme, Sunshine for the Cowardly Lion, Midnight for Nessarose, or Showgirl for Boq! The possibilities are endless.

In case you’ve sorted all your journaling for the time being (maybe you’ve already preordered your 2026 Journal…), here are some other ideas to make your everyday life a little more magical!

Try having a self care evening and listen to the Wicked soundtrack while painting your nails with this wonderful nail polish set from Marks and Spencer. Maybe even match your journal spread to the nail polish! The set contains four water-based nail polishes, with sparkling shades of black, pastel blue, pale purple, and green, so whether you’re an Elphaba, Glinda, or even a Fiyero, there’s a shade for everyone. The box is even Wicked themed as well, so could make the perfect gift for a Wicked-obsessed friend.

Once you’ve painted your nails, try slipping into a pair of Wicked-themed pyjamas to really get you in the mood for Part Two! Marks and Spencer have a huge range, covering both an Elphaba-themed pair and a Glinda-themed pair. Try matching with your bestie during a rewatch of Wicked: Part One before the next film gets released!
