Thank you for making me feel validated with my 10 hundred planners that all contain the same information and require different size stickers and different pens that I use strictly for my own personal enjoyment. Lol
Same here- I love having a space to write things down. As a sahm, I don’t really have a schedule but I like writing down dinner ideas for weeks when nothing sounds good and I can’t think of anything we’ve liked for dinner 😂 also water tracker etc because my babies are 2 and 3 months old, mama needs to drink more than coffee lmso
Great video and yes, I am one of those that gets overwhelmed from too many notebooks with the same information. Have a wonderful new year and may 2025 bring you good health and much joy.
Hi! I love your ideas, as always. I, too, am relieved that I'm not the only one who has overlap between planners. 😅 Additionally, you have influenced me (yet again) to get a cover for my A6. I'm trying that out this year. My line up is: Paddington Weeks for schedule and normal stuff. A6- all things wellness, tracking, and PM reflection. Moleskine Daily continues to be my daily journal and gratitude. I'm on year 5 or 6 with it. ECLP for back and forth for work/ home. Have a wonderful New Year. Thanks for your content, honesty, and overall awesomeness. 😂 ~Bethy💛
Staying with the Weeks and minimal TCMC deco for my personal EDC. Moved to a Wonderland 222 A5 Core, unstacked weekends, from the Cousin for mainly work planning. They still have original TRP paper for 2025 and I was overwhelmed with the Cousin daily pages. Ordered in September. So unwittingly avoided the paper issues. Already missing my Cousin (a little). I love this time of year, seeing everyone's planner choices, enthusiam, lessons learned and new ideas!
Great video! I'm using the Hobonichi Weeks in 2025. That will be my primary planner and the only other planner I will have is the Commit30 Brand fitness planner that I use to track my fitness and nutrition in. I do also use a small 5x7 daily notebook for notes and rough/messy planning or brainstorming and the one I'm currently in is a little cutesy one I found at Target...I literally have a whole drawer full of notebooks ready for this or any purpose!
Oh my goodness I am a canva lover as well. I use the templates to make my boss gift certificates for her massage business and have made so many phone wallpapers. I will have to look at the vision board templates and make me one too
I just bought a Hobonichi cousin last night! I think paper quality was kinda holding me back, but honestly I love the printing and the all in one of the cousin!
Being my first year in Hobonichi I love the Cousin I don’t see anything wrong with the paper. I have seen very little shadowing. ❤ It’s a dream to write on but again it’s my first year so I have nothing to compare it to.
i’ve already been using my weeks and can’t wait to dive into my cousin! i have my coffemonsterzco order coming in and can’t wait to use everything and hopefully not get overwhelmed and give up 😂
I still don’t know what my entire 2025 full line-up is 😅 i’ve never been this undecided so late in the year lol. I’ve been using a MomAgenda as my weekly planner with an A5 stalogy notebook for notes and daily pages for personal life. Really enjoying that. I think I am leaning toward the Cousin for work with a stalogy notebook as well?! Yikes. I don’t know haha Thank you for sharing! Lots of wonderful ideas to consider and really pretty colors you have for 2025. They feel vibrant.
I have a B6 academic year which is good through the spring- I didn’t see the need to purchase another one when that one is still good if I want to hop into it between now and then 😊
Hi there Julie. Great lineup! I am using a Papertess Designs B5 Manager’s for work, an Aura Estelle B6 daily for home life (EDC) and an Aura Estelle A6 catchall for wellness. I’m hoping three systems are manageable for me. Take care❤
I was not happy with the Hobonichi Cousin paper quality, so I ordered a 2024 Hobo from Amazon and will be redating that. I also got another one for 2026 when they were like $15 on Black Friday, just in case. I use so many stickers and embellishments that it doesn't matter.
Have you done a pen test yet? My Cousin seems to be ok - but my Weeks has bleed through! I thought it could have just been me being too heavy handed (new to Hobo) but I also bought one of those thin little notebooks (for a perennial pen swatch book) and there’s no issue with that one…
Not a Hobonichi user, but unfortunately; a uterus owner [albeit one without fallopian tubes, sterile! ] so I use a yearly overview calendar to track my not-so-consistent cycle, it's helped me as I'm in the throws of perimenopause and to share with my providers. I just track start and end. It's not blatantly obvious what it is but honestly... it's part of life so if someone were to see it... let's normalize it! Wow sorry that got a little soap-boxy! Just a suggestion, if not for you, maybe others wondering what they could maybe use it for.

We are validated 🥰
You are not alone sister ❤
🙋🏻♀️ Repetitive planner here! Love your line up.
Team repetitive planning! Woot!
Your joy comes first !!!❤
I’m sticking to my EC daily duo this year, but I have to say I absolutely love the colour palette for your 2025 line up. Giving off gelato vibes. 😍
Love this line up! I also love that you are leaning more towards simplicity. Same for me.
Me too! Simplicity is key! 😊

Thank you for sharing. I have not jumped in the fad of the tomoe river paper. I may just buy a journal to try.
I’d say it’s worth it! 😊, def not a fad…. It’s been around much longer than most of todays planners
Love your closing statement!! Here’s to an amazing 2025!🎉
Great video and yes, I am one of those that gets overwhelmed from too many notebooks with the same information. Have a wonderful new year and may 2025 bring you good health and much joy.
I’ve been waiting for this video. I’m using 22 planners this year. (Videos on my channel) I love watching your videos
You're just like me I love it !!! Every one has a purpose too right!! (At least to me hahah) I'm heading to your Channel to watch so excited !❤
Omgosh I already follow you on ig how did I miss yu had a channel !?!? lol my bad instant sub haha

It sounds like you've found a really good system for you!
@JuliesPlans Lets hopes so! I'll be interested to see how it goes for you this year as well.
The index is awesome as an index to take you to the main thing that stood out for each daily page. Just an idea.
That is such a great idea!
Immensely enjoyable vid! Love your line up. You make me want a Hobonichi A6 😂
Thank you so much!
What a great lineup! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much!

Their templates are incredible! Especially if you have Canva pro!

Always enjoy your videos! Happy New Year to you and yours!
Happy New Year to you too!
You are back!!😍🥰
Yes! 😊
I have those same cutie wool coasters! ❤

It can definitely be a struggle to decide, especially this late in the year!
I had an undated passion planner that I bought from a previous sale so that’s my 2025 planner. Hopefully next year i get my first hobonichi!
I think I'll start a Hobinichi planner for 2026. For now, I'm in my Laurel Denise planner and a daily planner I found on Amazon for 2025. 😊
I really loved my LD and never thought about purchasing a daily as a supplement. Dang it. I completely switched systems bc I need a daily🤦🏾♀️
Simple is my word for 2025! Great video and ideas. Im curious why you choose hobonichi over sterling ink planners? Aren’t they the same paper? Thanks!
I have a B6 academic year which is good through the spring- I didn’t see the need to purchase another one when that one is still good if I want to hop into it between now and then 😊
I LOVE that you don’t have single brown or beige cover! So tired of the neutrals.
Yes! I needed a break from those covers with uplifting/ fun covers!
Hi there Julie. Great lineup! I am using a Papertess Designs B5 Manager’s for work, an Aura Estelle B6 daily for home life (EDC) and an Aura Estelle A6 catchall for wellness. I’m hoping three systems are manageable for me. Take care❤
I have a couple of Aura Estelle planners to review and I'm super excited to maybe use one of them for work!
I was not happy with the Hobonichi Cousin paper quality, so I ordered a 2024 Hobo from Amazon and will be redating that. I also got another one for 2026 when they were like $15 on Black Friday, just in case. I use so many stickers and embellishments that it doesn't matter.
Also, LOVE Canva for the vision board! I made my yearly board on there as well, and am thinking of making one monthly for my cover pages.
So smart!
Have you done a pen test yet? My Cousin seems to be ok - but my Weeks has bleed through! I thought it could have just been me being too heavy handed (new to Hobo) but I also bought one of those thin little notebooks (for a perennial pen swatch book) and there’s no issue with that one…
Yes there’s a highlight on my instagram comparing the books and the difference in paper!
Who had the vision board template? Thank you 💜
Cynthia! Her handle is @cynthiaplans on IG
Curious what type of planner you use for work.
Just a notebook ☺️ mainly use outlook for a schedule
Not a Hobonichi user, but unfortunately; a uterus owner [albeit one without fallopian tubes, sterile! ] so I use a yearly overview calendar to track my not-so-consistent cycle, it's helped me as I'm in the throws of perimenopause and to share with my providers. I just track start and end. It's not blatantly obvious what it is but honestly... it's part of life so if someone were to see it... let's normalize it! Wow sorry that got a little soap-boxy! Just a suggestion, if not for you, maybe others wondering what they could maybe use it for.
If i still had a cycle i would definitely track it especially because it effects so many other parts of our lives
I live in Fort worth…are you near me?
I don’t live there, it’s just a sticker that was given to me 😊
Being my first year in Hobonichi I love the Cousin I don’t see anything wrong with the paper. I have seen very little shadowing. ❤ It’s a dream to write on but again it’s my first year so I have nothing to compare it to.
