I was watching this video in bed with my cat spooning and when your cat’s head popped up I told him “oh look a kitty” he also loves sitting on my planner while I’m working on it 😂
You can insert some card stock to the back inside sleeve pocket of the plastic cover to make it sturdier. Then some people take a bone folder and gently run it along the inside of the back pocket to loosen any glue along side the inside of the leather pocket . Then try sliding it into the Eternal Leather cover. Gentle hand and it does the trick! And I agree. I totally prefer the Eternal Leather.
I did that and the cover is still way too small for the notebook. I filmed the comparison video today and you'll be able to see how much shorter the cover is to the planner. 😬
Detrich is actually so cute, but what is it about cats that they just have to be all up in your sfuff, sitting right on what you are doing and walking right under your feet that you either trip over them or step on them? I say that all with love of cats, we have one :)
Happened upon your video because of the Common Planner and oh my gosh I think you are the cutest!!! I just Loved listening to you talk to the cat and just everything!!! 😂❤ Enjoyed hearing your ideas on setting up the planner too.
I've done it all, I'm sure we all have. A5, B6, B6 slim and I even had a leuchtturm pocket. Next I'm in an A6 bujo and it is the perfect size for me. With the nanami plenty of space to plan, write and lists. I prefer the Gillio personally for my A6, the rust color is to die for. I don't like the spot on the clasp, if you do the eternal leather is better. Would love a video with your thoughts on the journal and the pen! Also I'm very happy that you've been able to get more videos out. Love to see them and hear your thoughts about things ❤️
Oh I can't wait for the vault to be opened up again 😉. I don't have a Gillio, but I can tell you from looks, the ETL is amazing 😍 and a sure winner in my opinion. It is on my wish list for sure 🥰
Love your video as always! I need to get my setup video filmed to share! I rented a Gillio for a while and I was not impressed. I like my VDS covers and like the leather a lot. I did not like the Gillio leather and didn’t feel it was very nice or worth the price tag. Imho. Can’t wait to hear your full thoughts. You can sometimes use a paper trimmer and just barely trim the edge of the clear cover and then use a letter opener or butter knife to run around the edge of the planner pocket to make it fit. If it’s literally just a smidge too small.
It fit in the back pocket without the clear cover HOWEVER, the thicker spine of the full year made it so it didn't shut nicely. The cover would poke out. Not sure if that makes sense.
I really enjoyed this video. I don’t see myself using the common place book just because a B6 doesn’t fit my lifestyle. Im an A6 for on the go & A5 for my desktop. I tried to keep a journal in my planners and it becomes too much. Im easily overwhelmed. So I keep a “burn book” in my TN. But I love your style! Keep the videos coming! 😊
If you contact eternal leather goods and he can adjust the size, will you let me know? I’d like to try out thr cover for my sterling ink b6 planner this year!
Dear Ali, I really enjoyed your video and listening to you talking about the common planner usage and also about the covers. And I would sure like to hear your thoughts on a comparism of the Gillio to the Eternalleathergoods. Is it in the natural color? All the best for you and your loved ones heading into the New Year!
Oh, how funny that you forgot what you ordered!😆I always say it is like getting a present when I receive items that I have ordered because I always forget what I have ordered!
Midori is the cover probably from Jetpens. I have one in A5. I am screaming my heart out ❤. I love your owls. I just hope when you announce I can purchase it. Ha!
I have the English man Siri. He sounds just like a real life friend of mine As for everything in this video,the time tracking, the resistance to change, etc. Makes perfect sense to me, since I am also on the neurodiversity spectrum. I would have played with my planners today, but I am sick. Either I have the upper respiratory infection or the omicron. I feel miserable and hiding in bed today. My Apple Watch is basically yelling at me to stand, and I ignore it.
I'm so sorry you're not feeling well. Praying you recover QUICKLY! Thanks so much for your encouragement and for watching my vidoe! Get well soon. xoxo
Oh my gosh! I’m so excited the owls are coming out of the vault! I love your owls. ❤ On a side note and I know you kinda mentioned it in another video….it’s a personal one how do you do your eyelashes as I love them? 😍
Sure! I can do a video on how I do my lashes. I use a couple different products and the actual lash segments I use are from Lash Linx. Love their hybrid H1 and N2 styles!
Can you just cut the top of the plastic cover. I do that with all of mine for my ELG's covers. And I only have to cut a tiny bit off. 😊 I love my ELG's covers better than the one Gillio I own. 🙈🤷♀️
I don't think I would like doing that but I'm ok with getting another one. Yeah, I was quite surprised at the quality of the Gillio for how much hype there is around the brand. 😬
It's this one...www.ebay.com/itm/294811264751?_trkparms=amclksrc%3DITM%26aid%3D777008%26algo%3DPERSONAL.TOPIC%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D243537%26meid%3Dfbcb063284074293a819f19a128b7937%26pid%3D101524%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D1%26itm%3D294811264751%26pmt%3D1%26noa%3D1%26pg%3D2380057%26algv%3DRecentlyViewedItemsV2%26brand%3DPilot&_trksid=p2380057.c101524.m146925&_trkparms=pageci%3A3b775ade-8c85-11ed-94d8-76544f69f58a%7Cparentrq%3A7f0e89fd1850a69e55955a47fffecc5c%7Ciid%3A1
Or… use your planner as you like- and don’t worry about fitting everything from one year into one planner. Start it any day and go on to a new planner when it’s full. Then start the next. Why let a set number of pages limit you’re creativity and productivity?!
I feel like that would be too much for the front also. 😬 I did put some in the back and that helped ALOT! Thanks so much for the anniversary love! xoxo
All the likes for your furry little gremlin! You too but he's adorable 😄
Thank you! He's a mess but I love him so much!!! 😻

So sweet!!! Thank you for your love! xoxo

maybe run a butter knife buy the stitching of the book that it doesn't fit it?
Merry Christmas Ali!!!
Hope you had a Merry Christmas too! xoxo

Love hearing your thoughts! Was thinking of this planner, but I’m biased to using a6 size for easy on the go planning/journaling!

I also prefer VDS plus their customer service is stellar.
@@Dreblueskies yes it is! And the customization ❤ I adore mine
I feel the SAME way! I was actually kinda shocked! 😬
Hi Alli, I really enjoyed your video! Can you please confirm, did the common planner fit well prior to adding the clear cover? Thanks!
It fit in the back pocket without the clear cover HOWEVER, the thicker spine of the full year made it so it didn't shut nicely. The cover would poke out. Not sure if that makes sense.

They have all kinds of sizes! A5 which is my favorite size too but now she even has B5!
Lemme know if you’re really thinking about selling your eternal leather b6 to get a new one! I’ve never had a snap closure cover & am intrigued!
Love hearing your cat.
He's SOOOO vocal! haha!
You could always add some thick card stock or patterned card in the inside of the plastic cover to help with the stability of the cover.
If you contact eternal leather goods and he can adjust the size, will you let me know? I’d like to try out thr cover for my sterling ink b6 planner this year!
He said he can. I just need to finalize the measurements. :)
Dietrich is hilarious 😂❤

Yup! It's the natural color. I did upload that comparison video this week if you're interested. 💛
New to your channel, but I enjoyed your video!!
Yay! Thank you!
Completely off-topic, but I am completely loving your nail polish color! Would you mind sharing?

Oh-my-gosh! Where are those paperclips & tabs from?!? I need these....😊

Dietrich greatly improves the video, although I love the planner/journal content too lol
I just found your channel and I'm 🤣🤣🤣.. I so very much see myself in you in these moments. The ADHD is REAL! 😂...I'm glad I found you! 💜
Oh my gosh...so real. haha! HI!!!! Nice to 'meet' you! I'm super honored that you visited me in my little corner of the tubes. 💛

I will be restocking them for a while so hoping you get some too! Thank you so much for watching and for the love! xoxo
So when you figure out the new dimensions let us know cuz I need one too that will fit this planner with the clear cover.
Will do! :)
This please 🙏🏼
I would love a comparison video of your B6’s-all of them.

Do you get the Hobonichi kit? The Full sub kit didn't have those skinny sticker strips. Want them!
I don't have any of the kits. I just purchased it separately.
Ooh those owls!! I would so buy your gorgeous stickers Do you sell them?
Can you just cut the top of the plastic cover. I do that with all of mine for my ELG's covers. And I only have to cut a tiny bit off. 😊 I love my ELG's covers better than the one Gillio I own. 🙈🤷♀️

Are you going to sell your Eternal Leather's A6 cover?
I am not, but I am selling the B6 cover.
Or… use your planner as you like- and don’t worry about fitting everything from one year into one planner. Start it any day and go on to a new planner when it’s full. Then start the next. Why let a set number of pages limit you’re creativity and productivity?!
I am using my planner as I like. I like using it for this current year. :) Thanks for watching! 💛
How much is the gillio
I got a buyer minutes after posting the video so it's been sold for awhile. I'm sorry!
He’s cute
Are you in Virginia?
I'm not in Virginia. Thanks for watching!
Throw a small piece of cardboard in to strengthen the front cover.
Btw, glad to see you posting! ❤️
Congrats on 20 years!
I feel like that would be too much for the front also. 😬 I did put some in the back and that helped ALOT! Thanks so much for the anniversary love! xoxo
He’s as nosy as our Maltese, Mia
If you want to sell your Eternal Leather Goods B6, let me know. I am interested
I am! I am filming a video tomorrow about my comparison thoughts and then both will be going up on eBay. 🥰
