idk if you realized already but the clear cover you got is a cover on cover to use on top of their other nylon cloth ones. It's not the same as the weeks clear cover where u put it straight on the planner out of the packaging. If you want just a clear A5 cover to put over your cousin get the midori a5 clear cover.
Thank you for the heads up!! My brain wasn't working and I didn't register that it was the cover on cover. I wanted to get the Midori cover to have a snug fit. Thank you for letting me know!! Did you get anything in the sale this year? Or have any favourite Hobonichi products?
This is one of my favourite compliments I’ve ever received 😂😂 I try to keep things organized so it’s easier for you guys to watch the video as well! And it’s also helpful for my chaotic brain. Thank you for stopping and supporting my channel !!
Ahhh ! I knowwwww it's SO cute!!! I'm at a coffee shop right now and I brought it and I love it so much!! Did you buy anything from the hobonichi sale this year?
Fellow Canadian here. I just bought one Hon with a few more things so I paid for the shipping. I’m glad that this year Hobonichi actually starts to take care of the import tax and we no longer need to pay that! I guess that’s probably part of the reason why everything is slightly more expensive than the direct rate from Japanese yen to CAD ( I made a note of the prices on the plastic package, and yes we bought them with higher prices than if we would buy directly in Japan). It’s still less expensive than buying from local resellers, so, yeah. It’s the price to pay for not living in Japan
I didn't realize that they covered the import tax! I had a nightmare that it cost me $537 for the import tax hahaha Next year, I will likely go to an online Canadian retailer so that I don't spend as much. But yeah, too bad we have such limited access. There were even many other items on the Hobonichi website that I wanted but was only available in Japan!!!
Ohhh hi!!! Welcome to my little corner of the Internet (and thank you for supporting me!)!! I will film a functional daily planning in my Hobonichi soon!! Thank you for the suggestion/feedback!
@@HappierbySeppy Hi! Yes I got the Wallpaper weeks and the bow and tie year of the snake weeks, an A6 techo original and the gingham cover, a hon for my son,, and an A6 day free! It got delivered to my friend's house and she's out of town until 10/10 😔 so I have to wait to get them
@@criseldasantiago7912 OMG I’d be so impatient to wait hahahah that sounds like a fun haul!!! Love that you got a Hon for your son!!!!! Can’t wait for you to get your goodies and enjoy them ! I’m itching to start setting up my Cousin! I think I’ll film the process.
Oh really?? I wonder why... did you get one? If so, which one did you get? I am going to gift the other one to my older sister instead so all 3 sisters can have matching journals haha
Great haul and if it makes you happy and not in debt then it’s definitely worth it, as is your happiness. I too bought a lot to meet shipping and I am on my own - like you said it makes me happy, I also budget for the big spend at this time of year. I got the same weeks as your sister for 2025. I bought all of Yumi Kitagishi’s range except the posits this year - not sure I will use them. In 2024 I used a Cousin Avec - weekly pages for health and daily pages for journaling but wanted to downsize next year so Weeks will be for health and meal planning and I got A6 for daily journaling. I also like to cover my Cousin before putting it in its cover, I use the Midori A5 cover on Avec but I think you may need the Midori Codex clear cover for the Cousin as it’s a wider book. I only put the back covers of my Cousin into the covers so the front of the Midori clear cover is an extra pocket for me, I may tuck in a folder there as some small Washi/stickers do fall out. I don’t find the small pockets on my Hobonichi cover enough for all my bits of stash 😂 (I used an Etsy dark cover as the start of the year and the Laurent Garigue Twinkle for the 2nd half of this year - expense but was so lovely to hold like a cushion). Wishing you and your sister planner and journaling fun. Varsha, London.
You are right - it brings me immense joy and I am not going into debt for it, so it is definitely worth the expense!! My Hobonichi box is still out on my table because even seeing THAT makes me happy!! What did you get in your order?? Good luck with the weeks!! I found it way too small for my needs but I understand the appeal of it. And I completely got the wrong cover for my Hobonichi! In the past I got the Midori one because I like it snug, and adding stickers to the cover itself. I will see how I like the cover on cover that I have and whether I can make use of it. I try to keep the back pages/inserts empty to make it easier to write, otherwise it will be filled up with stationery and stickers etc. The Stappo has been PERFECT for all my little stationery that I use on a daily basis. Love hearing about how you were using your journals and planners!! Thank you for sharing !!
Ohhh how lovely!!! Have you started using it yet?? What do you plan on using it for?? (PS. I've been so Scotland and fell in LOVE! Itching to go back!)

I bought last year clear A5 Midori codex cover and it was great for Cousin.

That's what I did last year and loved it!! I'll likely get the Midori one instead.
Thank you for being organized with your video

I use those pouches with see through the front. Love them.
Oh fun ! What do you use them for?
That pen pouch print is cute!
Ahhh ! I knowwwww it's SO cute!!! I'm at a coffee shop right now and I brought it and I love it so much!! Did you buy anything from the hobonichi sale this year?
The cover is big because it’s meant as a cover for a cover, that is why it is called cover on cover. Just a heads up.
I *COMPLETELY* missed on that when I ordered it. OOPS! It was the Midori cover that I would want to get instead for a snug fit.

@@HappierbySeppy yes! Do a video!!I will gladly watch it😊
I’ve have noticed that a lot of people are getting multiples of the same little booklets.
