2025 Hobonichi Haul! CHATTY AND YAPPY

[@tattooedcat]

Ooooh Hobonichi Day! I love this! I got 3 Weeks this year because I have no idea, but I couldn’t pick. I also picked up a few random accessories, including all the clear covers with yarn on them. It’s so cute! One day I’ll do some paper tests, but I haven’t felt like it yet. Thanks for sharing! ✒️💜🧡🖋

I Def want to see a flip through! I love seeing how people are using their planners

[@MariaRosseau]

I bet your friend would want you to have two different freebie books if possible, rather than two of the same. 😉🤣 Yours is the only unboxing video I've watched. I'm definitely in the hurry up and wait camp, but it's working in my favor this year. Lots going on to keep my mind occupied. 😅

It only took about an hour when I was ordering at launch. The wait really wasn’t that big a deal and I got everything I wanted, including the Mina Perhonen I decided to get this year. I know this seems rude, but I think folks were getting a bit too dramatic about the system problems. It’s an incredibly busy website at launch so I have sympathy for their IT department because I’m sure they were scrambling. (Yes, I’ve worked on network systems 🤓 )

Oh, also, I would love to know a recap of how you are using your 2024 planners. Could use some re-thinking here. Would love to benefit more from mine. ☺️

The white diamond bookmark tags on the cherry blosson planner are shaped to represent cherry blossom petals.

I would like to hear your paper/testing impressions. I wholly agree with you about the planner rat race, know one want works for you, and being “over it”. My only sticking point is that the most important part of my planner use is Weeks (2 or 3 qty.), and for the Menu one and somewhat the gardening one, a lot of what works about it is to use my already small handwriting and an Ultra Extra Fine Platinum Century 3776 to write a total essay-length memo on any random day of the Weeks, and it was not possible to do so with my 2024 Spring Start (the others were Jan. start, and of course fine.) Testing some of the .28 and .38 Uni Jetstreams, to see if I can get to a place of having other pens I can use with my planners. But, I sure prefer to use the Platinums I bought for that express purpose… Also! I was at Yoseka, checking out planners, and happened to look at a 2025 weeks, and really felt in the moment that it had the pre-spring 2024 paper in it! I was shocked! Is this possible??!??!1? I’m curious to know if all yours have the same paper, in your estimation. Finally, I am okay with 2024’s A&S and A6 Cousin. The new “white” TRS; I don’t prefer it, but I can deal with it. It was the cream weeks that I had various issues with! P.S. If I were shopping today, I think I would get Red “Colors” Weeks, that PAMM (Generous Ocean, was it?) Weeks, and then the one with the Tanzaku (I can’t remember the name; it’s the one with strips of paper hanging from bamboo, and it’s by the same illustration collection that is over 100 years old and on the freebee notebooks) and maybe a burgundy leather weeks. And an A6 cousin. Undecided if I will get a cover.
