@@DesertGal It has that design, but it's not a HON as in it's softcover, not hardcover. I have that notebook in both sides and I love it, but a hardcover notebook would be swoonworthy!
Love the Hon! I use an A6 notebook for my daily journaling and absolutely love the size. Maybe one day I'll get a hon! But for now I enjoy the serotonin boost that I get from starting a new pocket notebook every two months-ish. I totally appreciate your effort to go on a no-buy as someone who really can't afford to join team Hobonichi just yet. But I did order myself a Kinbor (the cheaper, chinese alternative!) I got the vertical time series one, it's like a cousin but without the daily pages!
A6 is so cute. I love the seratonin boost of a new notebook every couple of months. That’s a good way to approach it. Yeah. Hobonichi was waaaay out of my budget for a long time so I know how you feel. I hear the Kinbor ones are good though! Xx
I use one of the travelers company sticky corner pockets to slot my pencil board in so that it doesn’t slide out so easily. ❤ that got on my nerves but I just stuck it to the end sheet paper since I have my a6 hon in a clear cover.
so envious of all the exhibitions you have access to in London! that Yoshida book was gorgeous :) haha, the struggle of living in the middle of nowhere USA... love the video!!!
Oh I am SO SO lucky. I do everything I can to enjoy London to its fullest (especially considering how expensive it is to live here 😅) being in the middle of nowhere has its perks too - nice and quiet. Lots of space. No mean people on the tube 🤣
Hi Jo! I stumbled across this video and I instantly subscribed! I resonated with a lot of what you talked about. ESP the serotonin boost that buying stationery gives you and how when you started out you felt so much pressure. I felt excatly the same and went into a stationery spiral. And now I have enough stickers pet tapes and all of the things to last at least 5 years 😂.
Welcome to the channel!! Oh yeah - the serotonin boost is a cycle. It’s a balance because this is my hobby but as you said - I’ve got enough stickers to last me a while 😊
Thanks for sharing! I love your honesty and the fact that you’re trying different things in September and other books instead of shopping for 2025. I know what you mean about not having people to talk to about planners and notebooks. I think people think I’m weird. 😂😂
My family are kind of used to me getting excited about cat stickers, but anyone else just gets confused. It’s so nice finding people who have such a huge passion (even if it is through a screen) thank you for watching!! And you will always have a planner friend in me 🫡🫶🏻
Smiling from ear to ear when watching this!! So glad to have become your friend 😌✨ And I love how you used that Moomin print :,) Can’t wait to bring you some goodies from HK in the middle of your no-buy time~ which I’m hoping to do after HK as well! 🍋
Aaand the distinguished cat stickers are some extras from a friend, and I had those ones in double… so I’m not sure where they are from but I shall ask 😎
With regard to the weeks, I loved it, but I really ended up using it as a date book for work and personal, carrying it around whenever I was out (away from desk, office or home), so I had my two very separate schedules with me - just times blocked off. I also used it for shopping lists, etc. for “out of the house”. I felt this, while a lovely little book, was wasting the powerful little notebook, and I did not want to use it for my personal (too small). I ended up using the weeks for a financial journal, which sits perfectly in my secretary desk. The horizontal allows categorized spending to be quickly tallied and entered on to the monthly, and the index perfect for tracking those pesky infrequent or not auto paid bills. Really works well, and keeps the info separate from my personal journal. Just in case the weekly doesn’t work out as a content journal/planner. I also found it is a great, small profile archive for finances, and has really helped me stay focused in my financial goals as it is so easy to tally spending (which went unaccounted for far too long).
I love the idea of a financial journal, I would love to have one in theory (and I think it would be beneficial to me) but in reality I know I can never keep it up. Im starting to accept the fact that I wish I was a weeks person but it’s just not for me (right now). X
They ARE cute! I bought one in 2024 and then another because I love the way it feels in my hand. Definitely got another one for 2025. This was a winner from hobonichi!
Ohhhh that’s it! It’s how it feels in your hand. I couldn’t describe it but you nailed it. It’s just so holdable 🥰🥰 I think it’s a huge winner for Hobonichi, and a good entry point for new people to the brand who might not have the funds for a book and a cover.
Thank you!! Omg you are too kind. I also love my spreads mostly because they are full of my life vs focusing on aesthetic 🥰🥰 which is always the way to go. Stickers are from a wanle studio PeT tape, I think it’s a cafe or cake shop or bakery one? But anything Wanle studio is beautiful xx
That beautiful Hon was calling my name as well but decided to get an original a6 techo instead. Really, i just couldn't resist the dog ears fluttering in the wind cover on cover ❤
Thank you for watching. I have thought about using sticky notes, but knowing me I will forget to cover something 🤣 for me though I think there’s also a benefit to keeping personal journaling in its own place so when you are going through dark times you can have some separation. And I don’t get triggered when I flick through my pages. I’m enjoying having it separate (not to mention the fact that when I am writing personal stuff it tends to be illegible and completely incomprehensible 🤣🤣🤣)
A6 and smaller are my absolute favourite journalling sizes. I moved into the Cousin fir dailies thus year but use smaller ones for all sorts. I also struggled to use the Weeks for planning despite trying 3 tines I think! It's great that you know that you can flipflop between one or several - no rules!
The smaller notebooks do have their benefits. But for journaling, I am loving the space of an A5. I am learning that I need that freedom to flip flop. Thank you for watching! ❤️
i had the same experience lol. I am a daily planner and I use the A6 Avec (which I wish came in English lol) but I got a HON for the first time this year and I am so obsessed with it I love it its such a nice size and feel
Is it just me, or does finding friends when you're older feel a lot like dating, and it's exhausting!! 😅 thank goodness for my husband, pets, and planners.
Oh finding new friends exhausting indeed! And very scary the older you get. I envy young kids who just go up to a random kid and bond over something so simple like the colour of their shoes. 😆
I switched to a SI vertical Weeks size - in about March of this year and haven’t looked back. I love trying out different layouts and have leaned to use the top section for basically where I’ll be then using the lower sections to log details
I wish I lived close to you! I need local planner friends too. I moved to another state in 2020 and have made no friends! I have the same HON on the way. I’m so excited to get it!
Love watching your videos! Also love seeing a fellow Brit with a whoop band as I don’t know anyone who’s got one 😊 can I ask where you got your yellow band from? I love it but can only seem to find it through “Whoop your way” and the shipping is crazy x
Thank you!! And yay team whoop! I mostly use it for sleep tracking as workout tracking only really works when you actually work out (which I struggle with 😂) the yellow band is one of the summer hydro ones - I swim a lot so it dries a lot quicker. It’s super cute. And yeah, the shipping is crazy expensive so I only have a few bands a rotate through. Xx
Omg I have the same issue with the Weeks and literally said to myself as I was mapping out next year that I’m going to get the Mega Weeks and use it for a media journal!! I even have the same Weeks you show in the video. Look at us being twins! 😂😂😂😂
Yaaay! I think the thing that I have issue is there’s no grid on the left hand side. I’m not good with no grid. I go all over the place. I need the structure 😂
@@Jojournals90 Omg same here! It throws me off every time I open to a page. I write horribly crooked without grids or lines lol. I’m looking into a Weeks from a couple other brands because I NEED a guide when I’m writing and I prefer a vertical layout. I’m flexible on the layout, but not on the lack of grids or lines lol.
Just found this video! Sorry to hear about that cretin in the meeting, glad you had a better rest of the day! Did you find out where to get the distinguished cat stamps from please? Also I get a bit carried away with spending (I panic and think “if I don’t get it now I might not find it again!”, or will find another way to justify it 😅) but it will be so exciting when you get to Japan!
Oh my word. What is that MOOMIN TN COVER? 😮 May I ask if the images are only stamped on with the gold foiling, or are they pressed onto the leather like blind stamping? I hope I am making sense 😅
I got mine on eBay and it was very pricey but the heart wants what it wants 😂 it’s stamped on with gold foiling, I know the foiling does come off over time (part of the charm) so I am being mindful of it.
Thank you! It’s a Japanese exclusive that I got on eBay imported from Japan. I won’t lie, it cost an arm and a leg! But no where near as much as they are selling for now. It’s my prised traveller’s possession 🫶🏻
I have just found out this video and was an immediate subscribe! I found myself a lot of what you were saying so relevant for my situation at the moment! I bought my first hobonichi for 2025 (weeks) and I have inmediatly wanted to use it and after having it for a week I am having the impulse of getting the cousin to memory keep and journal more. But I am stopping myself and making me wait for a month before I buy it! So the no buy stationary talk really helped! Looking forward to more of your videos!
Thank you so much!! Waiting is so hard but it’s worth it in the end when you have the right books for you and have really thought it through. The cousin is great for memory keeping, but if you felt overwhelmed by the weekly pages and the dated you could always try the day free first. Xx
i got the baby unsodo hon as well, absolutely obsessed with it. i think i actually bought everything from the unsodo line, as soon as i saw it was block prints i knew it was gonna be an expensive haul 😢did you go to both of the exhibitions you mentioned? i'll need to add them to my neverending to do list!
Lol I'm the opposite, I bought an A5 HON for my media journal and a weeks is better for planning for me because I don't have a lot going on in my life to plan, and its nice and portable.
Woah, that’s a lot of space for media journaling. Love it! I’m the same - I don’t have much to plan (and to be honest I don’t have much of a need to plan) I just want a planner 😩🤣😩🤣
Thank you, and welcome!! . Is that the flowery one? It’s actually the liberty fabrics Hobonichi cover for the cousin, and I added the elastic myself by poking a hole in the cover (was a bit scary) hope that helps!! X
I went on Amazon and got a HON A5 in the liberty fabrics for 2024 and then ordered the liberty fabrics for 2025! I’m going to use the beginning months of the 2024 for common placing for the rest of the year :) I love going to Liberty’s in London so wanted to collect the HON liberty prints. I love the Hon too, I kinda also want an A6 to carry around but definitely need to think because I do also love the traveler’s company for that! I can see me getting both - I use the TN for venting and in depth journaling and a hobonichi weeks for health and fitness. I was considering the A6 for reading and media because I really want to increase my reading and like quotes but idk yet 🙈 I have lots of things I want to track and I need separate books for it to work for my brain so I’m sure I’d make use of them all! Love this video and hearing you talk through ideas too :)
Thank you for sharing!! I love how you are using the beginning of your 2024 hon up as common placing. I ought to find a way to use mine up too to be honest 🙈 good luck with your books!! Xx
I haven’t actually. Sterling ink is really expensive to import to the UK and I can’t justify for testing. I also really love my cousin so don’t plan on switching 🙂
@@Jojournals90 oh makes sense! I live in usa and the Hobonichi & sterling ink both come up to about the same price so I switched this year. It has all of the beginning pages of Hobonichi but also 366 undated pages which makes it feel like so much less pressure if I miss a day or two
I wish they make a passport size or pocket size of this hon so i can carry around with me it would be perfect fit inside my small bags. 🙏🏻Anyway thanks for sharing. I love your hon covers 🤗🥰✨
Hello!! Welcome to the channel. I honestly would recommend you search Hobonichi and your country to find your local Hobonichi stockist as prices vary a lot. But if you are in the EU then Stilo and Stile are your best bet.
Hi Jo, I loved your video! New subie! I saw you were talking about the London pen show, I was wondering if you are going there? If you are, would you be interested in meeting up and having a coffee journaling session ? I will send you also Instagram DM, so won't be maybe so random 😀
Hey! Thank you for subscribing! I am going to London pen show and I think a few of us are meeting up. Drop me a DM on instagram and I will let you know the plan 🥰
I wish Hobonichi did a HON cover with a lined, blank, or grid notebook inside. I’d buy those EVERY single year.
OMG that would be AMAZING ❤❤❤
I think they do have a Hon notebook…with the botanicals on the front like this beige a6 in this video.
@@DesertGal It has that design, but it's not a HON as in it's softcover, not hardcover. I have that notebook in both sides and I love it, but a hardcover notebook would be swoonworthy!
Omg that would be amazing!! Or at least the day free as a HON 😱
@VeganOrganizer Oh! Gotcha….yes you are correct. That’s a bummer…
Looooved seeing your cute little a6 HONS!! They are just the cutest little size it’s hard not to love them
They are mu wee babies 🫶🏻 very hard to resist. Xx

The HON is gorgeous! 💖 Japan is going to be AMAZING!! Love your system 💖
Also excited to see your video about your fountain pens 💖
Thank you!!! I cannot wait.
I use one of the travelers company sticky corner pockets to slot my pencil board in so that it doesn’t slide out so easily. ❤ that got on my nerves but I just stuck it to the end sheet paper since I have my a6 hon in a clear cover.

That's a really good idea! I'll be using it too!
