You seem to be moving more into journaling and art than planning. Your weeks sounds like a catch all on the go planner. Like a common place book for your daily life. That is great! I'm curious to see how you will get into this new line-up.. and quite frankly this is quite a big change of planning/journaling life 😊 I have been around here since your happy planner days (you weren't even into FPs then); so it is inspiring to watch you going through life and adapting according to your needs
It's definitely a change to when I first started. I will still be planning - it will just be more simplified than when I used to use 3 or 4 planners for planning. The theme this year is more about simplifying, but also encouraging myself to be more creative. Thanks for sticking around so long!
Thank you for sharing! The Hobonichi A5 cover looks beautiful-I’ve seen it in multiple videos from various channels, and I never get tired of it. Whenever I see that cover, I can’t help but click! :)
I love that your are using what you've got for some of your journals. And I love that you are sharing your thoughts as you've pivoted. I totally still have no idea what I will be doing moving into 2025. I bought all the pretty things and have a lot of options. But I couldn't possibly commit to my lineup this early lol. Ask me again the week after xmas leading up to new years and I may know by then 🤣
I totally get it! Everyone is different and this is very early to have this set up. Some people like their lineups to be ready in advance and some don't want to be tied down yet! And yes, I could not justify buying more notebooks (whether Hobonichi, Sterling Ink or Galen Leather) when I already had a stash I was not using!
Love watching your videos on a Sunday night - it’s like we’re doing a chill catchup 🫶🏽 looooove your lineup choices and I’m excited to see how they evolve! I enjoy year-over-year journaling (and I laughed at the weather tracking because I love to see what the weather patterns are in my 5 year 😆)
8:37 I have also just bought a 2024 A6 size one as it was on sale on Amazon and I’ve been using it as a daily doodle/zentangle journal. I only use one side of the page for zentangle as some ink/pen combinations or maybe the zentangle itself causes the my inks to bleed through. Great lineup and inspiration for for next year, I’m still undecided. 😂
That sounds great, Karina. Hope this lineup will work for you. Just a little sad , I’ll miss your weekly plan with me in your hobonichi cousin weeks pages ❤.
Thank you! I did enjoy my Plan With Me's in an A5/Cousin but I found I wasn't using them the way I wanted to. Who knows? It could always be something I go back to in the future - that's the beauty of planning/journaling.
I am using A5 SI as my self care and improving , journaling The sam Hobo weeks as my EDC and functional planning SI weekly booklet as my home manager I liked your lineup as journaling is a private thing and that is why i decided to use Hobo weeks and my functional planner Maybe in 2026 i will do the same as you did for 2025 ❤
I’m still trying to figure out 2025. I’m currently using a Hobonichi Original as my planner and journal and I like it, but I don’t know if I want to try something new. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and plans for 2025!
I'm of the mindset using what works for you. Don't try new things just because it's what's trendy on social media. At the end of the day, it's your planner and your life. 😊
Did you check your hobonichis for the paper issue? I got a Weeks,then read about the issue with the TR in a lot of the 2025 nichis. I was testing with a slightly panicked edge because I wanted to have a lot of fun with my Inks this year.

So glad you’ve found a system that works for you! Excited to watch you learn your new system 🙂

Aww thank you! I would love to get together with our planner stacks and catch up. And the weather - only in Canada!
I like the variety of note books. I would like to keep a sketch notebook for birding to work on my retrospect memory.
I love that! I've heard so many different ideas for sketchbooks - a great way to keep the mind inspired and motivated.

Even got the A6 weekly for my handbag.
I love that! Yes, I got my A6 HON for sale on Amazon. I couldn't pass that up. And it's okay to be undecided - it's only October!
That sounds great, Karina. Hope this lineup will work for you. Just a little sad , I’ll miss your weekly plan with me in your hobonichi cousin weeks pages ❤.

Maybe in 2026 i will do the same as you did for 2025 ❤
Thank you for sharing. I love hearing how everyone uses their planners!

@@KarynaLovesToPlan great advice, thank you!
Finding planner peace is hard. I keep buying and can’t decide.🤔
@@northernvault2247 and that’s okay. There are so many things that could work for you. And it’s okay to change!
I feel the same and do the same

@@AmyranthLovely yes I tried the notebooks and there is a little shadow which is typical of TRP. Mine are fine.
What nail polish is that?
