Loved the collaging!!
This year I am trying new things got a moleskine on clearance so trying that olgave been doing happy planner for years
Are you still using this.. I just started moleskine but it's a little larger and want to try this small one
Thanks so much Estella!! Love this. Sorry it took me so long to watch this (I’ve been travelling). I love how you’ve done this - I see that you annotate as you go. I’m not sure how i can do this but I’m keen to try it out. I can never remember the phrases and quotes that I loved so this is excellent. ❤
Thanks so much for watching! It takes a little bit of practice, but it gets easier over time! I hope you enjoyed your travels and holidays. Wishing you a Happy Nee Year!
Good n Organised planning! but need it more simple ..like one book to carry around..instead of... Any tips..thank you!
It’s definitely a great feeling to be able to use one planner! I am going to try my best this year to keep everything in one book besides my everyday carry. I have two A6 planners but they are for categorized uses.So let's see how this year turns out!
Thank you for sharing, Estella🤍 I’ve always wanted to know how to do this, I’m excited to start with my first book!😊😊
Thanks so much for watching! I'm so glad this was helpful. I love being able to write and tab my books while I am reading. It allows me to immerse myself in the world I am reading.
It's interesting to see how people use their cousin in such a minimal way 😅 mine is full with stickers, washi and a lot of writting...the chunkiness is getting out of hand
Thanks so much for watching. I think it's great that people use Hobonichis or any planner in a way that brings them joy and happiness. As long as it is functional for you that is all what matters. I really need to work on evening out my spreads so the chunk is not located in the top middle only.
I’m new to this which Hobonichi you said it was the one with cat mom? 🐈
Hello and thanks for watching. That was my 2024 Hobonichi Hon in A5 or Hobonichi Cousin planner.Im also using a 2025 Hobonichi Hon in the Gingham Cover.
Beautiful. Looove your collaging? Where do you get your magazines? Do you routinely buy them? Certain ones?
I purchased these clippings from Art by Naty on Etsy but have also used Magazines from Uniqlo or Fashion Magazines. There are so many types of magazines that have specific niches. I also have pages of text available from romance books I purchased and read. I plan to use some of their pages in my journal if I don't donate them. Hope this helps.
Have you used one planner or journal throughout the entire year? Which planner or journal was it? Introduction: 00:14:21 Yearly Overview and Monthlies: 02:39:16 Weeklies: 03:10:22 Turning The Page to a New Year: 07:02:22 Daily Pages: 08:21:14 2025 Gigham Hon: 21:58:22
I'm thinking about starting to annotate but I wondered -- do you annotate as you first read the book, or do you read through the book once, then go through and annotate after?
Hello and thanks for watching. I actually annotate as I read!
Are you still loving this bag? Would love an update!
I loved the bag yes. I just had to be more gentle with it because I was literally lugging it everywhere.
Hey, thanks! I am planning on a massive re-read of one series and whenever I remember how messy my original annotating was I just get a headache. Seeing a waaaay cleaner way of annotating is really gonna help
Glad it was helpful! Thanks so much for watching!
Hello Everyone! Happy Holidays if you celebrate. I wanted to share what I use for annotating my books. Thanks to @desleyjaneplans for this recommendation. Pen: Uni Jetstream 3, Mildliner Markers, and Tabs from Amazon (not sponsored or affiliated). Let me know if you annotate your books or if you don't. Also do you read you books by listening to them or getting cozy on a couch, bed or whatever cozy spot you love?
Your planners look incredible! I have fully fallen in love with this theme as well! I got the sticker pack from Amazon a week ago; it’s so great! I’m not familiar with the other company you got the other pack of stickers from? Could you drop a link for them? I’d be soo thankful!
Hello and thanks so much for watching. I got the stickers from saricastudio.com (Not Sponsored). Im really loving this theme!
I am glad I am sharing how I am feeling wtih this setup. I think as planners we expect ourselves to be set in how we setup our planners. Sometimes its okay to start over, review what your intentions were and using what you have while gathering inspriation. Stickers mentioned and used are from Sarica Studios, (Not an Affiliate, Not Sponsored) Dark Academia stickers + Sticker albums are from Amazon (Not an Affiliate, Not Sponsored).
They have walkman at Roses if I'm not mistaken and they're fairly cheap.
Thanks so much for sharing this! I will definitely look!
@@TheMinimalSophisticate Hey, Dear. I’m in Five Below now and they have some cute ones for 10 bucks.
I’m going to check tomorrow!
Meeee! I literally bought a Kinbor weeks so I could save some money. I just broke down this week and ordered hobonichi weeks mega because I thought of a way to use the extra note pages. I couldn't help myself 😢😊
It's definitely hard to resist the Hobonichi! 😄
I can't tell you how many times all year I told myself and everyone else that I would not buy a hobonichi weeks for 2025...and then I went and bought the pistachio colored mega. It's so gorgeous 😂
It's such a gorgeous color! It's great when you find a planner you love. Thanks for watching Cheryll.
I love how your cover turned out! 😍
Thank you so much! I’m so happy with how it turned out! I just updated the covers because I got inspired and changed the stickers.
For my Sterling Ink, I drew all the December weeklies in the first notes pages so I could start using it lol. Also pro tip - you can flip some of the back pages so they are under the front to make it easier to write at the beginning of the book. I’m realizing that’s hard to explain in words, so hopefully that makes sense. It works well with both hobonichi and sterling ink bindings.
I’ve never thought of using the notes pages for December weekly spreads, but that is a great idea! I am glad that you shared that you shared that idea. Also I did try folding the planner onto itself but I did not like the bulk towards the middle of the planner for writing (Hope that makes sense.)Thanks so much for watching.
Who else has bought something they said they weren't going to buy? I was inspired by Tori on Paper, Lorae, WhatupV and Lex. They all have amazing channels. Stickers are from Brittany Keller Art, Little Magic Prints and Amazon (NOT SPONSORED or AFFILIATED with any).
I Love your functional set up! Great flip.
Thank you so much for watching!
I love your zippcover with the pink black and white stripes where did you order that one? Haven’t seen that one on the hobonichi side.
I ordered that one on Amazon. Just research Hobonichi A6 Zipper cover.
I love your multiple planner system. I didnt know Sterling Ink had a B6 slim! I'll have to check that out.
It is such a great system for my current needs. I love the B6 Slim size. I’m hoping that I stay consistent with all of them in 2025.

Love the A6 neon plaid Hobo cover! I have it in A5 but the smaller size looks so much cuter :) For 2025, I have purchased an A6 Hobo HON and a couple of Weeks, Moleskine daily, and some Cloth and Paper inserts for 7 and 8 disc planners. AND still do not know what I will be using 😂
I know that feeling! So many great options make it hard to choose. I hope you definitely get to find something that works for you!
@ Thank you!!
Hi, where is the front cover girl sticker from (dreads & lollypop)? Thanks
I purchased my stickers from RedBubble. You just have to look up fashion girl to hopefully find it.
Love these ideas! Thank you
You are so welcome!
Love your videos!🎉 what brand is the zippered leather folio that you have your planter inside of please? 🙏🏻💕
The café au lait/ with the grid, is Hobonichi (Either 2024 or 2025).💗
The Hobonichi Cafe Au last Cover 2025 Edition.
I don't even know what I'm doing anymore. I was holding off on buying a 2025 Hobonichi because of the issues with the paper. I saw yesterday that 2024 planners were 50% off on Amazon, so I bought one of those instead. I'll use the rest of November and December, and will redate the remainder. This is after buying an Erin Condren and deciding I hate it, btw. I think I might turn that into a three- or five-year journal somehow. smh
I feel that! It is such a multiple choice for me when it came to trying to find the perfect planner. Sometimes we just have to go with what we feel works best.
Who else has updated their front cover stickers multiple times? What is on your reading list?
I just got my Paddington cover and i was sooo scared on the cover on cover not fitting 😭 the blowdryer is genius!!! ❤❤❤thanks a lot for that
You are so welcome. Thanks so much for watching.
Same! I wish the common planner starts in November.
It would be so much fun just to get started but I can understand the appeal of beginning in the new year. Thanks so much for watching and sharing your thoughts.
Loved this vid!
Thank you so much. I appreciate you watching!
One lady I watch on YT (Plannerdmom) started her CP weeks book by drawing them out in the back of the book. I considered the CP book but I just love my Hobonichi books. Good luck with your planners!
That is such a great idea and I love the idea of drawing out the calendar sections in the back! I definitely understand the love for all the Hobonichi options. Thanks so much for watching!
It's refreshing to see a less-stress functional planner.
Thanks so much for watching. It's a great way to organize your life without feeling overwhelmed, right?
I think Wonderland222 starts in Dec this year
Really? That would be great!
Hi!! Love your videos! Did I miss where did you get those zippered covers from?
Hi thanks for watching. They are from Hobonichi. 😀
So you’re a functional planner I’m more of a decorative planner. So it’s fun to take a day out the week and use sticker washi tombos so while it might be overwhelming to you. It’s stress relief to me
It is definitely interesting to see how different people use their planners, and I appreciate how you mentioned the different ways we all find stress relief and joy in planning!
I know it’s personal preference, but I like starting my planners in the new year. My current weeks I want to complete it all the way through December
It’s so nice to complete a whole year in a planner!
How do you use your Hobonichi Weeks? Share your ideas so others can definitely learn. Shop mentioned is softpaperstudio.com (NOT AFFILIATED OR SPONSORED) who was known as Caffeine and Paper Co. Love her stickers of Latte.
The thing with the clear covers is they have to seal the edges and that makes it bigger. I'm thinking an option is what we call in the UK sticky back plastic. The clear sticky film you can buy (vinyl wrap). We used to cover school notebooks with it. You can do it really neatly and it lasts ages.
Love this! Do you find that the zippered covers lay flat or do you take the planner out to write in it?
Hello and thanks for watching. I think it takes some time for them to be trained to lay flat. However my other gover from Hobonichi does lay flat because of the material type.
au lait is pronounced "oh lay" just so you know :)
Thanks so much for letting me know. I was really hoping to say it correctly.
Girl you can send me one if you have to many lol
LOL I love all my covers. I get why people start collecting them.
So cute! 🎉 I didn’t fully understand… the zipper covers that they are in are Hobonichi brand, too? 🙋♀️🙏🏻🤔🧐
Hello and thanks for watching.Yes they are also from the Hobonichi brand.
