🪄techo kaigi - or the art of buying 8 planners to realize you only want to use one✨ 

I’m using a a6 ring binder and the sterling ink a6 common planner and notebook that I cut up in punched to put in my binder. It gives me the flexibility of rings with trp. And I can’t add and take away pages as I like. I enjoyed you going through your thought process. It is so easy to get caught up in buying and buying and not just figuring out what you need.

I love, love your spreads! They're so pretty and all have a lovely theme. For the images on your calendar pages, are you drawing them or are they stickers? I couldn't tell lol. For 2024, I have two primary books that I'm using. One is the Papier Undated Planner which is great for someone like me who can be very detailed for a stretch of time but then when I get burned out, I might not jot things down as much or I'll do it after the fact so, so far, it's really working for me as far as day-to-day tasks, appointments, habit tracking, etc although I really hate that it doesn't have a blank calendar. And then for my information/brain dump, I'm using the A6 Hobinichi Techo Day-free notebook. I'm a big note-taker and the A6 notebook is becoming a really great place for me to take my notes for my 2024 goals like Wellness, my workout regiments are logged there, other notes to prevent muscle damage, supplements, pre-workout routines, post-workout routines, etc. It's been really helpful and bc of the small size, I literally bring the notebook with me when I go to the treadmill as a reminder of the tasks to complete beforehand and it works very well for me. I totally get the concern about over consumption bc I want to leave behind the habit of notebook buying just bc they're pretty lol thank you for sharing your spreads!

I so relate to your dilemma of which planner to pick! But half the fun of journaling, I've concluded, is trying to find the best one! Hope you're enjoying your chosen one(s)!

I bought 5 planners for 2024🤭 Only two of them I use as planners. I'm more a journaling girl 😄 So I use three of them as journals. Love your video❤ I using take a note a6 and hobonichi weeks as planners, used them for some years now. I also bought sterling ink standard size, hobonichi cousin and another weeks. They are my reading journal, daily journal and movie/ tv journal.

Lovely spreads 😊

This video is so relatable!! It takes some trial and error to figure out what really works. And there are so many gorgeous planners to choose from. For 2024, I’m using the hobonichi cousin avec and the hobo weeks. I loveee the cousin avec sm. But I admit that I’m also already thinking about the planners I’ll buy in 2025.

I'm doing a really good job sticking with my sterling ink common planner A5 full year but my other planners have been kind of on rotation. Thankfully I love to commonplace so even if I don't consistently use one of my books as a planner I can repurpose it and still fill it.

Love the creativity in how you changed/re-used the weeks spread. Can I also ask, where is that pink washi tape from? 😍

I saw the kinbor from the thumbnail and I had to click and watch it. Part of me wish that I bought the dragon A5 daily 🥲
