In A series paper sizing it’s standard - an A5 is an A5 in Japan and around the world (except for companies that create their own random size and just call it that 😂). But in B series paper ISO (international sizing) and JIS (Japanese paper sizing) are different. Japanese is larger. So a B6 Stalogy is larger than a standard B6. So a B6 in ISO is roughly 5x7 whereas a JIS B6 (like Stalogy) is 5x7.2. Some makers create their notebooks in standard B6 size and others use JIS since it’s used so much in Japanese planners and notebooks. So covers don’t necessarily work for both. Wonderland222 is ISO b6 size for example. LaurenPhelpsDesign (and others like my favorite CatpressoCo) make covers that fit B6 Stalogy. CatspressoCo makes lovely ones with halo stars ✨
Wow I had no idea! I could have looked this up but I didn’t think to check it before I cut it up! At least I can now explain away my meltdown! 🤣 I’m laughing about it now and glad I got it to work one way or another. I will definitely try Catspressco if I fill this stalogy, thank you so much for the info and tips! 💕 xx
Just found your channel Ms Sarah and I'm so excited. I watch Rachel beauty plans, whoops I did it again, now you!! I live in Alabama in the US. I also do stalogy set ups on my channel! You also measure like we do in Alabama. My dad always called in a smidgen! Just cut it a smidgen!! :)
Wow I’ve made it to the US, that’s amazing! Thank you so much for watching. I love those two channels too, Rachel really inspired me to go for a stalogy this year. I’ll head over and check out your channel in the next few days too. I love cutting things a smidgen, much easier than measuring 😂 xx
I sometimes use a notebook as a planner because they are no dates in it I can add date month and year 📓🖋 I love today video it made my day ❤️💜💗💞💕😀and now I love planning and I love writing too 📔🖋❤️💜💗💞💕
This is exactly why I opted for stalogy books this year! It’s less pressure to keep track of the dates and so flexible! Are you using a specific notebook this year or do you have a few on the go? Thanks for watching 💕 xx
@@messyandbeautiful yes I have been using first class style by FirstLine and I have so many notebook's I have 14 containers of notebook's I just love buying them and I now Love to write in them 📓🖋❤️💜💖💗💓💞💕
I don’t know if this helps but I saw Whoops I Did It Again Co putting a similar cover on a stalogy and she said you had to use a hairdryer to stretch it and make it fit. I think it was in one of her December videos. Hope that helps! Xx
Thanks Emma, I tried the hair dryer and gave up in the end! I’ve butchered it now, so maybe next time! I’m up to my goal setting pages in your planner - thanks for the comp win! ❤ xx
If your cover is for a standard B6 it won’t fit a Stalogy because it’s JIS paper size and taller as a result. But catspressoco sells covers that fit the Stalogy perfectly.
Thanks Bobbie! I think I left it too long as I bought it about 6 months ago. I’ve also butchered it now! Someone explained that there’s a difference with Japanese sizing (5x7.2) and internal sizing (5x7) and a B6 is Japanese sizing so it actually slightly bigger than B6! I learn something new every day 😂😂
First video of yours I’ve watched! I had to giggle when you couldn’t fit your planner in the cover, no I’m not being mean, I just suffered a similar thing! So bloody frustrating but your solution looked fine and it’s not a waste of money now! Thanks for sharing xxx💕
I’m glad it made you laugh to be honest as I’m laughing about how frustrating it was now! 😂 It’s so annoying when things don’t work out. I did try to edit out the worst of my frustration though! Thanks for watching 😊 xx
I would love to know what your measurements are for the monthly pages? Side to side, top to bottom and box size. I've driven myself made trying to figure it out!!
The monthly boxes are 5 across by 6 down off the top of my head. I have one calendar left to draw in my main planner setup so I will film an upload as a tutorial 🥰
I think that works when they are only sized a little differently, I couldn’t get it to work with this one! Maybe one day I’ll be brave enough to try again lol
This video was so funny! Love it how you kept it real when things didn’t go to plan! It really worked out in the end. It looks great.
Thank you! Mistakes are true to life so it’s worth showing the world 😂🥰
I have thoroughly enjoyed how this got progressively chaotic and the swearing just kept on coming 😂😂 thank you for not holding back 😜
Haha at one point I growled at the thing! I definitely had to edit that out though as I didn’t want to shock anyone half way through 🤣🤣
@@messyandbeautiful I think I’m disappointed you edited that out actually 🤣🤣🤣
I giggled watching this. I felt like I was watching myself. 😂 I subbed half way through.
Amazing thank you! I am an absolute nightmare when it comes to this stuff, it’s why I get so behind filming setups 😂
Loved it lovely 😂x
Haha thank you! 🥰
You are hilarious, just found your channel, must subscribe!!
Thank you!! I don’t try, I’m just a bit bonkers 😀
This was a great video. Love your set up. ❤
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it. Hopefully will be uploading the other one soon as I’m nearly done 😀

Contact the shop owner about that cover as a b6 is a 5x7 that should house a stalogy.

You have to use a hair dryer and stretch it with ur hands slowly while it's being heated.
