The thing with the clear covers is they have to seal the edges and that makes it bigger. I'm thinking an option is what we call in the UK sticky back plastic. The clear sticky film you can buy (vinyl wrap). We used to cover school notebooks with it. You can do it really neatly and it lasts ages.

Hey! I actually thought long and hard about mine, and decided that this year in terms of planners, I'm going to stick to two for the whole year---the Hobonichi Avec Cousin to be my catch all/ memory keeping, and then the Traveler's Notebook Undated Vertical to have at work. I feel pretty content with that--though this is not including my journals (morning journal, and when needed, a travel journal).

This is so relatable. This year I experimented with so many planners. I thought I had things figured out for next year, and I don't. I got the weeks for my edc, and the a6 five year. This are the only two that I'm sure about and stuck with my plan. My daily journal, I did a 180 on. This year I'm using the a6 hon and I love the size. For 2025 I got the original and a few covers that I liked. But than I saw a hon that I really liked in people's unboxing. And now I realize I might be a hardcover girly. I think the original is easier to journal with because it lays flat better, but I would like to archive my journals with a pretty cover and the year, it takes up less room on my shelf, and tbh, I don't see my self switching up my covers during the year like I thought I would. So I ordered the hon that I wanted and now I'm trying to figure out what to do with the original that I got and with the covers because I like them and I want to be able to use them. I have couple of zip covers that fit the hon, one of them from the 2025 release is a tight fit, but it does fit, so that's comforting.
@TheMinimalSophisticate16 күн бұрын
Thanks so much for watching and sharing with us such a relatable experience as well. I think there are ways to use the extra techo original like a messy log of everything that happened in the day to write it down neatly in the Hon at the end of the week or evening. Brain Dump List, Reading log/journal. A commonplace notebook. I have a video on that on my channel if you want to see that. There is also a media journal such as what movies, books or shows you are watching or listening to. I hope you get to use all your notebooks and that we can have some amazing 2025 memories with them!

Really interested in a brainstorming/braindumping video if you make one! I’m switching to A6 for next year (currently in A5) because of the same thing you mentioned- I want to be more intentional about what I write in my journal instead of braindumping and memory-keeping like I’m currently doing in my A5. Now I’m trying to decide where I should do my braindumping… I did buy an A5 for next year just in case A6 doesn’t work, but I also have a weeks that I use as a planner, however I never really use the notes pages that much, so I could use those for braindumping. Decisions, decisions…
@TheMinimalSophisticate16 күн бұрын
I love the idea of using the weeks as a planner and then using the notes pages for braindumping. Logging the date at the top of the entry and then just write down all your ideas as they come to you! Love it! I will definitely keep the brain-dumping video at the top of my mind to share.
