Adrianne, I never leave comments. I’m happy to watch everyone’s creativity. But, when you mentioned your father used to cover your notebooks with paper bags, I had to comment! My father was very artistic and had beautiful penmanship. He would write out the subject of each textbook in beautiful font. I remember my History book was done with red, white and blue flag theme. He could make a plain paperbag book cover look like a work of art. You mentioning that brought back wonderful memories. Thank you for that. I like your ideas and set up! Yes, it’s a process and I too am glad when it’s done. I’m sure you’ll enjoy planning in your beautiful 2024 planners 😊
Thank you so much for sharing. I miss my father so much. His death was untimely, so remembering all of the beautiful things he did for us/me feels like honoring him in the best way possible. I am so happy to know we share such a similarly beautiful memory! I'm not one to comment often either, so I truly appreciate your time and effort. Hope you have a wonderful day 😊
I'm a bit late watching this, but have to say I did enjoy this video. Glad to see you finally in the cousin. It's very understandable that you think of the content pleasing your audience but honestly the best part of these videos is watching people do things in different styles. At the same time you can think about could this or a part of this style be something I could try. Like our planning style and taste don't match at all, but I keep coming back for the cozy vibes of the video. It's also nice seeing when design choices I would not choose, come together in the end and look nice.
Thank you for your thoughtful comment. I always remind myself that this content won't appeal to everyone, but I am happy that for those who return, they really want to be here, and that is so much more important to me. I am just myself, and although I try to be the best version of me, that won't appeal to everyone either! I am so happy you find the videos cozy! I definitely want to be warm and inviting in my personal life, so to know that comes across in my videos warms my heart. Thank you for watching 💕
Just discovered you Channel Adrianne, and I am watching you set up the Cousin for 2024. Absolutely fantastic and I am finding watching you work extremely relaxing but at the same time very informative. Thanks for your Channel. I have just subscribed from Nottingham UK 🇬🇧 I hope you have a Fabulous year 😊🎉🖐👍
Omg a lot of what is out there is really nice but is very expensive…u r so right!!! I’m struggling a lot at this moment with over spending 😢. It’s something I really need to get a grip of asap!!
I totally understand. I know some people don't experience that planner/stationary FOMO or collector feeling, but....not me! I love pretty things. I am working on it bit by bit. We'll be working on it together 😁
Just got to the part about the LPD cover. Yesterday mine arrived and I used a hairdryer on the spine to stretch the cover and it did fit. I specifically wanted the LPD for the pockets. Interestingly Sterling Ink plastic covers don't fit their new planners as the new planners have a thicker cover and I had use a hairdryer to the A6. 😮
Look at you! Ugh, I just did not want to pull out my hair dryer and do all of that. Lazy won. Lol. That is interesting about the Sterling Ink covers. Guess we need a new maker to come out with *all* the clear planner covers. Thank you for watching 💕
no matter how many times i watch your video fir sure i dont get bored and i enjoy it every time ^^ i wanted to ask you from where you got the vellum you used as cover infront of your hobonichi ^^ ty in advance :)
My LPD fit perfectly, with room left.. but ive heard to make it work you just get a hairdryer and stretch it out.. it takes less than 5 minutes. The Midori everyone talks about didn't fit mine (i have a hon).
I'm going to guess the clear cover didn't fit so great because of the number of pages in the Hobonichi (over 500, compared to the 369 mentioned in the product description), even though Tomoe River paper is a lot thinner than most. But I totally understand your frustration because one of the reviews specifically mentions using it on a Hobonichi. (I could be wrong because I don't have a full year Hobonichi on hand to measure. But if it's thicker than 0.5", that's probably it.) That tip-in tape is amazing! I had never heard of it before, and now I’m going to look into it. I appreciate your videos and life outlook. I think similarly, so I enjoy hearing the thought process behind your choices. I'm using an a5 Kinbor for 2024, and I'm really excited to get into it. I couldn't handle the price of the Hobonichi this year, and the T.R. paper was annoying me with the slow drying times in the one T.R. notebook that I tried this year. I used it as a planner for a month to try it out and realized that it wasn't overly practical for me, since I always use a fountain pen and occasionally need to close my planner quickly and take it with me. I've found the Kinbor paper to be a pleasant fountain pen experience with similar ghosting to T.R. paper but faster drying times. I may change my mind when I get into full-time use, though!
I would assume you are correct. It is unfortunate because I watched a few Lives where the maker discussed specifically that the clear cover would fit the A5 Cousin. Still, I may have done something wrong or purchased the wrong cover. Thank you so much for watching and for your lovely comment. I am so happy I get to share this with others, and the feedback is incredibly encouraging. Planner love is awesome 🥰
