2025 Hobonichi Planner Haul & How I May Use Them | Chatty - Grab a Coffee and Let's Chat!

I chose the same Liberty fabrics design for my A6 Hon...I'll use it as my EDC daily journal for morning pages and other things.

[@PersonalizeMyPlanner]

I really like your idea of covering up the 2026 calendars with sticker paper and using those pages to write out goals. 😊

[@melissaandrews1603]

I actually like the idea of daily pages for meal planning.

[@theothermrslandgraab]

21:41 I love how you addressed and worded the blank page situation. For someone like me, who gets discouraged if I miss a page, this was such a comforting thought. Thank you!

[@The_Productive_Spoon]

I have the same Hon as an A5 and looking forward to start 2025. Thanks for walking through your thoughts on your new planners.

[@darlaf2136]

I have a weeks in the liberty fabric to keep track of my health and exercise and also my plan to go Whole food plant based … for healing purposes. I use my cousin for every day planning and memories. I have a second cousin for my Bible and spiritual health tracking. ❤

Love the liberty design this year. Last year was my first year with hobonichi and I had a hon because I didn't want to invest in covers. I wanted to try the original this year, but than saw the liberty design and I couldn't pass it up.

I've been using the Weeks Mega for about 3 or 4 years now. It has217 pages in the back that I use for my bank ledger, monthly Rx's and OTC's, and my master monthly shopping lists. I keep this in my purse also to use th monthly calendar for doctor appointments. I don't always use the weekly portion, but when I do it's to list tasks that need to be done that week❤

One idea for the HON A5, since you intend it for memory keeping, would be adding in how to create memories. What I mean by that is e.g. seasonal bucket lists of day trips, what games you could play as a couple or as a family (think out of the box, not just common board games), where to go on dates, maybe a list of harmless pranks and one for how to (not?) organize a party. Although the ones where things go unplanned are often those we recall the best. 😂 What is a memory you always wanted to create, but haven't been able to do yet? Btw. Helen from TCMC publishes each months daily prompts for journaling on her webside now. Maybe they are something for those days you don't have anything for. Don't forget, you could always also do some artwork in your Hon. This year though probably better to do it on sticker paper first.

Hi Annie, So interesting to watch. I bought a bunch of planners but haven't decided which ones I will use for 2025. I would love to watch a video regarding your trigger lists. Thanks. I love the liberty fabrics, but each year I go for the standard cousin. Thanks for sharing.

[@Jeanniehud]

Awesome update Annie! Lovely planners for 2025.💞

[@foreveryoung2685]

I love the idea of using the weeks as a meal planner. I know that format works wonderfully for me as a fitness/exercise tracker, but I didn't want to buy a pricey planner for one purpose. Now I'm considering buying it for fitness/exercise and menus too and my other hobbies tracking like gardening, reading, and possibly even a cleaning tracker. Basically anything not work related but personal.

[@peakninsdoinglife]

For the dec pages. 2025 vision board would be a nice touch.

[@RootedbyTG]

I love this and how you plan on using. I bought the same Hon. I will be using it as my bible journal. My hon this year is chuck full amazingness. Lol. I have a regular cousin for Memory keeping and my weeks is my catch all edc. I added an A6 for 2025. No idea what 8m using it for, buttttt I’m using that cutie. I love her.

[@tuxedoplanstoday]

This is the INTRO MUSIC I LOVE!

[@357pls]

I think the December pages would be great for some fun weather statistics for the past year. So average high and low, number of rain days and sun days, number of days above and below certain temperatures, the average high and low for each season, etc.

[@berneserainbow1407]

Regarding tracking: Food, sleep, exercise, mood, cycle etc. are influencing your symptoms. Only if you track them, can you see trends and make necessary changes.

[@susannek4546]

the blank page situation for me is a tough one.. Sometimes it bothers me and I back plan and sometimes I do what you do on the week and just write "busy" or "I don't feel like writing." and let it go.

[@janiekcarney5482]

These are so beautiful. I want to buy these and use it for something for like five years. Or an undated version of this. I wish they didn’t use RED inside it.

[@alicem1111]

If you received the freebie a6 notebooks this year- it might be a good way to draw out your weeks like you do in your bullet journal. Since it’s working for you- it would be a shame to not have them or lose space in the daily section. If you had the little perforated a6 notebooks hobonichi always has I think it’s even thinner and would tuck away nicely in the HON.

[@suzisaintjames]

I put the moon phases on the weather page since that info is on the same websites. 💕🌞🌵😷 Ps. if you could figure out which planner steps goes with which of the 8 moon phases, I'd really be interested in what you come up with, i.e., new moon, is that for resting, reflection and recovery or for starting a new cycle (after reflecting and redirectung/restructuring)?

[@suzisaintjames]

Where's your mind map for this memory planner? What sort of pages do you have in your current memory planner that you want to continue (and which ones do you want to discontinue)? Where's that video on planning for a new planner that you did a couple of years ago? These will all help you figure out what goes on the extra pages. 💕🌞🌵😷

[@hannahclark8313]

Very interesting. Have you tested the paper? I've seen that it's pretty bad, esp. the batch for 2025. I saw that almost everything bleeds through! So sad. My last Hobo Weeks was back in 2019 so that paper was excellent.

[@PlanningAnnie]

I have done a little testing. No issues with my favorite ballpoint pens which is what I use primarily with the hobonichi planners.

[@hannahclark8313]

@@PlanningAnnie That's great!
