Love this😍 I am still waiting for my order, but thank you for sharing about the Mother memo pads! I have ordered the a5 too and was hoping the a6 version was available, too.. now tempted to get that weeks too 😅
@@themochicloud I am going for a HON- I ordered a few a6 ones - Crescent Moon Delivery, Rainbow & Liberty fabrics. will pick one among these & gift the rest 🤩so excited
I love your haul, thank you so much for sharing! I'm so glad to know that Amazon JP has the Mother memo pads -- I got one set a couple of years ago, and didn't realise the Hobonichi store doesn't have them anymore! I also really wish I had gotten that beautiful Plate of Confectionaries Weeks ~ I love that you're able to pair the new gorgeous Tanabata Weeks with it! 😍 I've wondered about the leather closure for the Weeks, how do you like it? the red you chose looks stunning against the One Piece Weeks!
Thank you so much for watching! I absolutely love the leather bookband, since you do have the ability to loosen it if your book gets chonky over time! The hobonichi store probably has the mother memo pad for the cousin size still available, but they are not stocking the weeks and a6 size for some reason 🥲
I love this, I will upcycle my unused pages at the end of this year and keep them for scrap notes snd blotting paper. Ibwas gling to throw the book away after transferring to my 10 year journal but let's be real, it's too expensive to just toss away a bunch of unused pages!
I've been shopping through my stash this year and using my unused pages in past hobonichi weeks as my daily scribbles. Using them in a new tragen weeks cover I bought last year. I've been Hobonichi free for the past 3 years (except buying covers and accessories). Was using TN passport size notebooks for the past 2 years and planning to move into an A5 size Nolty in 2025 as an archival journal while returning to the pocket sized rings for EDC drafts. Not considering Hobonichi Cousin as I don't do my weeks vertical. My old A6 Hobonichi also had so many blank pages that I ripped them apart and made refills for my ring binders. I guess I work better without dated pages as its a waste if I missed a few weeks of journaling.
It’s a nice idea to have older planners in new covers, that way you still feel like you’re not missing out on things that may catch your eye for the current year. 💕
I took one apart with an x-acto knife and it didn’t come out nearly as neatly as that - thanks for showing me that method. I covered up my messy spines with washi tape: tomoe river on its own is a little thin for discbound punching but I love writing on it! Next time I take one apart it’ll definitely be like this 😊
42:12 I love that anime!!! And so badly wished I could see someone play in person. My goodness seems so hard and it’s super impressive 😮 I would never use them but it would be cool to have! Haha
Right??!!! It’s so competitive too, one of my favorite sports mangas. I was so surprised later when I realized I had the whole set from hobonichi. Just can’t read or play it 🥲
Hi, I have a Gillio Appunto in A6, and it has the exact same stitching on top, but not at the bottom. I was wondering about that too, but since both covers have the same, maybe it's because of the back pocket? I don't know …
Yes, I think it’s the pocket that needs that specific stitching! How are you liking your A6 appunto? My A5 compagna is way too much leather for me now.
@@themochicloud I actually really like it, but I wish it didn't have a back pocket, and I'm annoyed by the zipper in the back. Even tho I like it, I wish I bought a VDS custom instead. I already have a VDS custom ring planner which I really really love, in JL brown. I have done so many customisations and ended up spending wayyy to much. Sadly I'm not into rings, but hopefully it will come back. I don't want to sell it, because I'll never buy it again, so I'm just saving it for another time, haha! Yeah, the A5 is pretty, but a lot of leather. I imagine its a lot to handle.I've gone smaller and smaller ending up not needing a lot of space.
You’re correct: there used to be pencil boards for Mother in each size for many years, with new designs every year since at least 2016. Seems like they are slowly phasing out the Mother series in favor of One Piece.
@@themochicloud Also, since I jumped In and commented on the pencil boards before I got all the way through the video (😅), just want to add that I think a Sailor Moon x Hobonichi collab would break the internet and it’s something that I hope for every year (Sailor Moon, not the end of the internet…Ok, maybe both sometime 😂).
I also got the navy blue last year and I love it! This year I have no clue.. stardust is my favorite but it's like getting the same one again. I didnt really like these year's colors :(
I totally agree, it’s not that popular but it’s such a wonderful anime! It was the first anime that made me want to pick up the manga so it holds a very special place in my heart 💜
So glad to have you back!! I love how effectively you repurposed your old books, it's a breath of fresh air in the midst of all the overconsumption in rhe community 🥹 Also super happy to see your 7 year journal still brings you so much joy 💜💜
Thank you so much for watching, I’m so glad you enjoyed my rambles haha 🥹 I absolutely love my 7 year so much that I think I’ve made it my whole personality 🥲
Happy to see a new video from you! It was great to hear how your notebooks are going. Your Moleskine is such a cute size and I can tell your 7-year weeks brings you lots of joy :) It's a good time for many of us to reassess our lineups and I've done the same as the previews roll out. I'm looking forward to see what your lineup will look like for 2025. I really feel your video description as a fellow person who posts on RU-vid, it's so hard to get back into filming and even then, being happy with what one films to post it, is what gets me. Best of luck for the rest of 2024 💕
My friend, its been so long!! Im so glad you enjoyed the video. Its just as you said, life just gets in the way of posting and i seem to have this situation every year during the spring and summer months :D Best of luck for picking your lineup as well, I cant wait to see all your videos! I've so much to catch up on as well 💜
Clever! I have a Weeks that I loved the cover and take it out every once in a while just to enjoy looking at it. Now I'm thinking if there's another one that comes out next year that I love, I'll set it up like this right off. (-:
Welcome back! Thank you for sharing your lineup ^^ I share the sentiment about not using TMR paper for work, it's too precious to write something about work on it 😆
Thanks for making the video and sharing your planner journey, I think we can all related when admiring others planner spreads and wanting to grow your own style. For a different size, maybe try Sterling Ink B6 size.
I love that you're doing this! 🥰 Love to see alternatives to **actual** 5 year journals (I'm using an A6 techo myself and just finished my first year in it as well) and I love how you set yours up. Here's hoping we can keep it up! 💪💪
This video is sooo inspiring 🎉 I am also reusing a 2023 book in 2024 which I got discounted. I will use it as a common planner/notebook. I will be covering over the dates or using them as a page number to index on the year tracker page. I love the A Night of Falling Stars and so glad I managed to get it but haven’t completely decided if I will use it as a reading tracker or a language learning book or both!! Thank you for a lovely interesting and enjoyable video🎉
Yay for reusing your 2023 book too!! I absolutely love the 'A night of falling stars weeks', theres something very magical about it!! I hope you get the best use out of yours too. Thank you so much for watching 💜
Love it! The Nolty for the win. The absolute piece I was missing for 24' . I'm in IT as well. Cloud infrastructure for like 9 years. Can't wait for your work planning video
Where on earth do I recognize this song from and why does it make me emotional? Either way I really love how you say "good morning, good afternoon, good evening" to your planner 🥺
Recognizing your voice, I already know what you are going to state in your likes and dislikes. Why not just sell the one you dislike, if you cannot bother to plan by taking your book out of the cover like I do.
Thank you so much for watching! I would basically use them for whatever I feel like at that time. I have a ring binder that I will move the pages to after I’ve hole punched them. I think for the most part, the blank pages, are gonna be my random deep dives of manga that I read and for the pages that have the Japanese writing on, I’ll just use them for watercolor sketches 😊
