@@KatiesCraftStudio you’re welcome! And yes, I will need to do a follow up. I will also be searching to see what others do as well. I do know I want to use the monthly area as specific projects and mark which days I work on them. Thanks for watching!
Thank you for putting this video up so quickly. I was contemplating getting the BK A5 Slim cover, but as I’m in the UK, didn’t want to risk it if it didn’t fit. The managers notebook looks perfect
Yes I really don’t know and crossed my fingers. I kept looking at the measurements on both websites and it sounded like it would it and can confirm now. It’s such a special planner! So glad I could demonstrate for those who were wondering. Thanks for watching 💕
Thank you for this! I regret not ordering the manager with my A6, it would make a perfect household planner or, more likely, when I manage to land that job I'm looking for right now... But ordering a planner for a potential job just wasn't justification enough for me right now. 🤷🏼♀️ I have 3 planners each year, that's what I can and like to keep up with, and I already have that lineup for 2025. Love this notebook though, hope it will still be around when I change jobs. 😊
@@missfl0werstar yes that’s hard when you already have your three. It is really hard to keep up with more and find three about my limit too. And for something that isn’t solidified yet. I think she really did order a lot more planners this year and hoping when you do get that job it will be available and part of your celebration. It’s hard but I do believe good things are coming! Sending you all the positive energy to welcome a beautiful transformation in your work 💕
Cannot wait to get mine. These look great. I bought the same plus the pocket, A6, and B6! Im deciding between two A6s or 1 B6 for business specific notes.
It will be so worth the wait! I love all of Papertess products. And it is so hard to choose what will work best :) Having them in hand helps so much. Thanks for watching!
Yes I was really surprised how quick it came. Like most shops bogged down right now it’s hard to tell when it will arrive but they will :) thanks for watching!
Hi, Not sure how much you want to spend, but I just got a Louis Vuitton Emily MM Notebook cover. It’s technically for an A5 slim. It comes in a few colors and canvases. I’m using for my Sterling Ink N1 (Standard TN) planner, which is a little narrower than A5 slim, but works great! Thanks for sharing the planners you got! Always good to check out all the planner options! XO from MN, SakuraStephPlans
Ooh those are definitely top of the line. I would probably search for a used one but that’s good to know. In my next video with the Manager’s, I think I want to go into a few more details and I am so happy it fits. Not many A5 Slim covers but there are lots who will custom make things. I do like a clean and polished look so we will see this year if I end up investing in anything else. Thanks so much for sharing 💕
@@LenaMellow yes I have been hearing some rumblings about the paper from different companies but the actual pen tests I have seen are all ok. I don’t remember which company I saw. I would do some tests but I don’t have any fountain pens and the only pen I use is erasable. The only thing I swatch is tombows. I hope someone out there is sharing some testing. It would be really interesting to see from different companies in the 2025s and if there are differences from last year.
Ok now I am seeing more pen tests come out and seeing the issues. I will post the two I found and will add more. I have some of the pens and could do some tests since I have different books. This is disappointing from the supplier, Sanzen.
Exactly! Anything to make it easier. I used it all this year and it helped so much. The year previous I was drawing things out and it definitely took a lot more time. I love the PTD weeks so much. Thanks for watching!
Catspressoco has a A5 high quality cover in stock right now. I've bought some . It's clear with stars and is called the "Leustrom" A5 one. (I spelled it wrong lol.) I'm not sure why they don't have all their items in stock right now but really hoping they'll get everything back into the shop.
Oh that’s another good one! This one right? catspresso.com/products/jd22w-milky-white-star-glitter-cover-for-leuchtturm1917-archer-olive-a5-notebooks Thanks for sharing!
@@vickiTHESECRET I don’t. But I can see how that might work. The covers I have are pretty stiff so they would need to be broken in a little bit since they were made for thin books. I am trying to think if I could mock that up somehow. I have a compact TN and a regular A5. I think I also have a thick weeks somewhere.
@@i.am.katiesanders No worries. Thanks for even considering it. After watching that portion of your video like 10x, I pushed pay on a brown leather TSL A5 slim that I saw in a FB bst group. I will know in the next week or so if my theory works. lol.
@@vickiTHESECRET I think you have a really good idea. I would definitely try it and if not I think they do resell really well. Let me know if it works!
@@lg3545 I ordered within 10 minutes and got UPS Express shipping. It did come faster than I expected. Last year I ordered within the first 5 minutes but the DHL shipping took two weeks. They will come!
Total stranger, here. I have no autoimmune anything, but the second shingles vaccine kicked my ass. Not just arm. YMMV. Still better than shingles, but maybe clear a deck or two for that one.
Oh yes, that first one was a doozy and clearing time for the second one indeed. And yes, so much better than shingles itself! Thank you for the reminder. I had spaced out the shots but also need to make sure I don't schedule anything during that time.
@@thiandavis good question! I have yet to have a B5 in my hands (I am getting a notebook soon to compare) but it may have been easier to translate the design on her grid system. It would be really nice to have the extra space to fill an A5. Could also help costs? Maybe we can pose the question in her Facebook group.
@@i.am.katiesanders Yeah, I figured that the costs for a new product may have been prohibitive, especially if she offered it in two sizes. Maybe if it does well, then we could get a full A5 next year. I bought the B5 as a companion to my SI A5 Common Planner for work. I would have loved to carry both of them around as the same size, but I’ll make it work! LOL!
how thick would you say it is?
The Manager is about 13mm and the weeks is about 21mm. Hope that helps!
@@i.am.katiesanders i meant the thickness, is it around 1cm or smaller?
@@JessDean-b4v The thickness of the binding is 13mm = 0.512 in = 1.3cm so it’s over a cm. The weeks is over 2cm.
@@i.am.katiesanders thank you so much!!
Thanks for sharing these. I'm so fascinated by the Manager's Notebook so I'll be curious to see how you use it.

There are so
Many planners it’s hard to keep them straight.
@@janiekcarney5482 so many options out there!
I was waiting for an ink /pen test!!!! There is much ado about the new River paper. The A5 Slim uses it.

I’m going to search for pen tests on The Rosey Life Planner, she uses a higher weight paper.
@@i.am.katiesanders If you have a HI Tec C Coleto please include it in the pen tests. If I can’t use fountain pens this year that’s my back up.
@@LenaMellow I don’t have it right now but have an order to jetpens for a few and will include it when I get them!
thats exactly why I was thinking id choose this ptd weeks- no time to draw my own layouts!

I take a b6 plastic cover & I cut off the folded part to use with my b6 slim. I just use packing tape to put the pocket back on.
Oh that's an awesome idea! Thank you!
I love my sojourner A5slim cover.
Another beautiful option! :)
Hi, Is your BK x TSL cover an A5 or an A5 slim?
@@AbbeyChrissie great question and I wasn’t clear in the video. It’s an A5 slim. They do make both sizes.
OMG! Hi! Would you happen to have a 520pg Sterling Ink TN? I have been trying to see if that would reasonably fit into the TSL A5 slim cover.
