Thanks for the video. Nothing prevents you from starting mid year like we did. You go back and forth in the book anyway ;). That’s why the start and end date are not pre filled with 1st of January. Common present for those who get married or start another important chapter in their lives.
Maybe you could add more years to the Hobonichi - 2024 and beyond on the right hand side, maybe not another 5 years, if your son does doodle on some of the pages, but a couple more to use more of the book. I couldn’t wait to start mine this year, so I did the last three months of 2020 on the right side page for my 2021 start.
I had a clear cover on a small year planner I had years back and after a year it was a little cracked and abused. But I can appreciate the Embroidered 5 Year journal coming with one. Let us know how it holds up! I suspect the company offers more of these dust covers. Im a little bummed I am seeing this video so late in the year and can’t snatch up one of the Hobonichi dated planners. Wish they didn’t put years in them. I’m looking for just that with the thin “bible paper” ❤
I prefer Hobonichi 5 year for family journal, or if you have a lot to write and prefer the Midori ones if you just want to write one or two lines a day.
I'm using the pages on the right to transform it in a 10 years journal, works like a charme
Haha I think I will be doing that as well!
this is an amazing idea!

How did it work for you starting mid year because I wanted to start on my birthday
Such a useful video, thank you 😊 I was thinking on buying a Hobonichi but now I know there’s more options to look at 🤭

Yes, I also plan to just add 3-4 more years on the right side!
Thank you that's a great idea!
Good idea! I have a midori 10 I just bought and am going to start Jan 1 2022 and I cant wait!

I love the idea of a family journal ❤thanks for sharing that idea!
the right hand side is designed to be used for things like photos or stickers, or like you said to extend the writing i believe
that is a great way to use it!
You can start from any date… it makes no difference 😉
I cant Help myself but the midori Looks exactly Like the typical German bible you can find in every church Here. Color, size, Look, printing... 🤷
Thanks for sharing! Good info!!!
What's the size difference between the embroidered vs. Red Door version?
Hi I believe they are the exact same size. The embroidered looks larger because of the plastic cover
Great review! How do midori and hobonichi deal with leap days? Do they use lighter shades?
Thank you for this video! Are the midori journals particularly heavy?
Thanks for your sharing! May I know where I can buy the Midori one.. I'm in Hong Kong😂
Omg what is this embroidery thing and how can I get it?
which one do you prefer?
I prefer Hobonichi 5 year for family journal, or if you have a lot to write and prefer the Midori ones if you just want to write one or two lines a day.
Which book do you have more writing space on a day?
I think hobonichi
I liked the midori one but after not even a year the binding on my book completely broke
REALLY?!? like it's unusable now? omg
How sweet 🥰😍
Thank you!
