About this template
Our Monthly Household Budget Template, which is both comprehensive and straightforward to use, is the only family budget planning tool you'll ever need. You can customize the names of your envelopes within the spreadsheets, fill in transactions for each family member, and more across four sheets within the template. Our budget spreadsheet template is fully editable and ready to use in Google Sheets and Excel.
Allocate Your Household Expenses to Envelopes
The budgeting system used by this template is very simple. You only need to use sample envelopes or customize their names, enter a monthly limit for each, and then record transactions on a separate sheet. This envelope budget template will give you a full overview for the period on a summary sheet based on your records.
Here is how our template works:
- On the Setup sheet, you can set up envelope categories, and on the Family Members sheet, list all family members participating in the budgeting.
- In the Transaction Log, you include the transaction date, expense category, amount, expense owner, and any notes.
- On the Expense Sheet, you get a full overview of each envelope, including total expenses and graphs of estimated versus actual expenses across all categories and by expense owner.
This means you only need to record all transactions, and built-in formulas and automatic charts will do the rest. You can also make a copy of the template for each month to reuse it. Download the household budget template for Excel from our website.
