Wow, I just stumbled onto your channel. Thank you, your commonplace system has really ignited a fire under me to go deeper in mine. I have been a bit neglectful of mine because I was doing the copy information of my interests. I was definitely following the “rules” which at first gave me comfort, but over time I think became too detached for my liking. So many ideas and expansive thoughts just popped up in my mind while watching your wonderful video! Another subscriber !👏🏽🌟
I thought I lost the internet in the end (I'm listening as I clean things up in my house) :D I've been journaling/commonplacing for som any years and it never really struck me to involve both the text AND my reflections on it. And to art not to make it pretty, but to make it easily readable! Thank you so much for the video
It was interesting seeing your set up and how much you write. I don’t know if I could do that much without my writing turning into an undecipherable scrawl, but I always appreciate when anyone else does it. Just one thing…..you mentioned once a month you have major problems. I used to have uncontrollable temper each month. So suggested I eat two bananas a few days before my period was due and carry on eating them till a couple of days after I’d started my period. Initially I laughed, thinking it wouldn’t be any use, but I did try it and I did it every month, and I never had another temper issue, in fact everything was so calm. It might be worth trying.
I absolutely adore seeing your pages! & you talking about the threads and themes connecting through typically uncommon topics had me sitting back and rethinking my entire commonplace book hahaa! I never thought of it that way and now I’m excited to flip back through my pages and find those common threads
Wow that is so kind of you to say, thank you! 🤍🥰 I'm so glad you found some value in this video! It's always so much fun noticing those patterns in our books over time.
Hi! I really enjoyed hearing your take on commonplacing- your topics of choice are also so interesting. I look forward to hearing more about how the TN is working as a home for your commonplacing 🥰🍀
Thank you so much for the thoughtful message! I'm so glad you found it interesting ❤❤And yes I very much look forward to settling into the TN for my commonplace! 🙂
Oh this is so gorgeous! And informative as well, thanks for sharing <3
Thank you so much! That is so kind of you to say, really appreciate your support 💗
gorgeous haul 😍
Thank you! ❤
My sister is going to Japan next week. I still haven’t decided what I want her to buy for me.
How exciting! I hope she is able to bring back what you'd like ✨❤
Enjoyed your channel. 2025 Intentional planning is something I’m looking forward. Life has been extremely hard n need to focus differently. I only have 2025 Common Planner and Roma Cavallini leather journal. It’s been my go to for years. I can create anything in it to document my life. ❤😊
Thank you for the thoughtful message 🤍 What an exciting lineup you have for next year! I hope your 2025 planners serve you well ✨🙂
This is a lovely haul! You demonstrated a lot more restraint than I did. 😅 It seems like we were both in Japan around the same time! I think we both visited a lot of the same places while we were there. 😍
Whattt that is so cool we were there at the same time! Haha it was so hard not to pick up every single thing in store. Thank you for the kind words! ❤
Yay! We have matching weeks! I’m so in love with the cover and it’s so special that you got to pick it in person. I’m excited for you and your TN as well!
Thank you so much for the kind words! ❤ The weeks IS beautiful. I really enjoyed your 2025 lineup video and I'm so excited for you too!! ✨🙂
so cute
Thank you! 🤍
such a cozy video!! as for me, i'm still deciding what planner should i get considering past years 😅 so this kind of videos are good to get me inspired and think about organization☺
Thank you so much for the kind words! I'm glad you enjoyed it 🙂
Ooooh mercy! I want to go to Japan so badly. A lovely haul!!
Thank you!! ❤ It was so hard to leave 😢 I hope you are able to go someday soon!
Congrats on your first video!! 🎉 It was great! So much of it resonated with me. Glad you’re here! 🫶🏻
Thank you so much for the kind words, means a lot to me! ❤I just subscribed to your channel, so excited to check out your videos!! 🙂
Lovely video, thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much! Happy to have you here & I'm glad you enjoyed it 🤍
Enjoyed this video ❤ welcone to youtube. I feel same way about sterling ink - I tried it twice & didn't like it. Your reasons are same as mine. Love your pages ❤ I have my line up on my channel if interested. (Think it will change 😅😅) xx
Thank you so much! ❤Really appreciate your message, and I am looking forward to seeing your videos! Going to subscribe right now 🙂
Loved this video, it was so good I would never have guessed it was your first video ever. I have to say I was laughing when you got to the Sterling Ink review. I completely agree, something about that planner is so cold. Don't get me wrong, it's a GREAT planner and in fact I've used an A6 Sterling Ink for most of 2024; I definitely recommend for people to explore it. But it just doesn't resonate with me for some reason. Hobonichi has a great personality, but not the functionality I need. I'm in a Wonderland222 for 2025 and so far love it. I love your characterization of planner-hopping as "experimenting". Not every planner is perfect for every person, so it's nice to try out several brands if you can to see what speaks to you. At least, that's how I personally justify spending too much on planners every year, lol. Anyway, sorry for the long comment. Your channel is great so far, can't wait to see what else you post, and good luck in 2025!!
Haha I'm so glad I'm not alone in how I feel about Sterling Ink! Oh I've never tried Wonderland222 but the layouts look great. I hope it serves you well for 2025! Thank you so much for your kind words and support ❤
so excited to watch all of your videos
This means so much to me, thank you for the support! 🥺❤
So appreciate you sharing! This is my third year with Hobonichi but first year with the cousin. Your formatting and functional approach are similar to how I enjoy using my journals. Thanks for the inspiration, excited to subscribe and see more. 🤍
Thank you so much for the thoughtful message and for supporting my channel! ❤❤That's wonderful, I hope you have been enjoying the cousin this year!
What is your instagram?
So easy to get overwhelmed with so many journals but best of luck making it work. I find for me, as long as only a few of them (personal and work) are time based, then I can hang on. Some can just be ones where you write the date for each entry, that is less pressure for me anyways. I am going to try to do Personal (hobonichi cousin), work (stalogy 6-month), gardening (Peter Pauper Press Voyager), private writings (notebook therapy hinoki). I bought an archer&olive a5 vegan cover and will find a use for that. I also use a Paper Republic A6 as a jotter notebook, I carry it with me just so I can write things down, make grocery/errand lists, etc. I will have an art journal, mostly tombows and watercolors, but I haven’t figured that out yet, I think A5 makes sense for that though.
Thank you for sharing! 🙂 Sounds like a very well thought out and functional system for yourself! I completely agree about finding too many dated notebooks overwhelming. I technically only have two dated books for 2025 so hopefully it's manageable for me 🤞
Absolutely ADORED this video! I love how you explain things, really clicked with my brain. I also just bought a moterm cover for my cousin and I was wondering if you pin or hold down the flap when writing? I won’t be actively using it until 2025 and that button flap is already bothering me hahaa!
@lexandlorex That is so kind, thank you!! 🥺🤍 Haha I actually never noticed what a hindrance the flap can be until you mentioned it! I think it's because I'm left-handed, so my right hand naturally rests on the flap as I write loll. Buttt I just played around with my cover and you can actually tuck the flap back into the front cover as you write, so hopefully that solves it?
@@moonlit.journal yes!! When I first opened it I was like “oh, this is perfect for left handed writers” but that does actually help a ton, thank you!
@@lexandlorex haha that is so funny! And I'm glad - can't wait to see you use it in your upcoming videos! ✨
It’s great to see how you’re setting your planners up. I’ve picked up a lot from watching the TN videos that TN owners are posting. I’ve got a monthly planner that I made from a grid notebook, a daily planner for a health issue, and a travel journal, which has notes about where I’ve been at the front, then at the back a couple of pages for campsites I really like, plus a list of items I need to stock my van up with again in the spring ready to start travelling again. I’m thinking of putting another grid insert in just to have for notes and perhaps some thoughts. I absolutely love how versatile they are.
Oh I love your travel journal ideas! I think I could benefit from something similar. Thanks for sharing! ❤ And I agree, the versatility of TNs are what I find so appealing.
@ Thanks 🙏 I’m not filling the travel one with anything I’ve collected like tickets, stickers etc. although I do draw a bit of leaf design on one side so it just makes it look a bit different to just writing. I like the inserts to stay slim. I’m looking forward to putting together the camp sites I like because it’s so easy to forget which were the best. So there’ll be the name, address/location, and phone number for booking. I’ll put a number on each of the travel notes at the front so I can use the number of nice sites when I put the details in the back of the book, match them up.
@@OldWhistler7743 I love the functional approach! I always feel our notebooks should work for us and be unique to each of our needs. 🙂
@ Indeed. I actually started with mine as a journal for getting back into the Tarot/Oracle cards, just as a hobby for myself. I used the three inserts that came with the TN, but they are now stand alone notebooks because I’ve gradually found what I really want to use my TN for and it’s working fabulously,
this was such a nice haul! i’m glad to hear you had a wonderful trip!
Thank you! 🙂 Appreciate your kind words! I feel very grateful I got to go on this trip.
Aah this was lovely! 🍀❤️ Thank you for the good company 💌
That is so wonderful to hear, thank you! Your videos have always provided great company for me so it means a lot coming from you 💕
so excited to have found your channel! :) this was an amazing first video, good work! thanks so much for sharing! 💛
Thank you so much for the support! I'm so happy to have you here ❤
I really enjoyed this video. Your presentation style is what I like, real. No pretense. I look forward to your future videos.
Wow, this means so much to me. Thank you for these immensely kind words! 💕
Hi!! I would recommend using some background music and divide the video into sections, especially since its a long one! It will make it easier for us to follow along 😊 Keep up the good work!❤
That's good feedback, thank you! 🙂
@@moonlit.journalI have a different suggestion. Keep it clean without bgm for more videos and wait for more responses. I watched a lot of journal writing videos. Some people’s voice is better suited with bgm, and some aren’t. I remember reading comments from viewers sensitive to sound and they have preferences. It’s true that the section division for videos over 20 minutes provides convenience to audiences. Anyways, I was excited when the algorithm brought me to your channel, specifically your first video, a good at that, so i’d like to share my thoughts. This is probably my 5th reply in all these years 😊
@@Lee-rc2dj Thank you for taking the time to comment, I really appreciate your feedback! I tend to agree. 🙂
Lovely!!! What pen are you using for writing? Thanks!
I use the Pilot Super Petit! 🙂
Love your style ❤❤❤
That's very kind, thank you! ♥
Love your video! For 2025 I will be using a Cousin, and your pages inspire me so much✨
Thank you so much! I just discovered your channel and subscribed 🤍 your journals are beautiful!!
