Hobonichi Cousin // June 2023 Flip Through

Still going strong with my Hobonichi Cousin, but def reconsidering a lot of things! In this video I'm sharing a flip through of the completed pages for June + my thoughts on what worked and what hasn't worked so far.

Really enjoy your flip through planner videos!

[@LindaLovesCreating]

Thank you! It’s fun to share them. ❤️ I plan to continue these videos monthly and will share a full year flip in January!

I really enjoy seeing your cousin! You have great spreads and great use of color! I would love if you zoomed in your camera so we could see the planner better. You background is pretty but it’s hard to see what you mention with some of the details (ex zig dot pen color being too light). Just a thought! Enjoy the content 🤍

[@LindaLovesCreating]

Thank you! I can try to do that for sure, I’m always just worried I’ll shift the planner and it will be off camera. 😂

I write the same daily rythyms for every day in my weekly layout. Do you have a suggestion on how to use a custom printed sticker instead of having to write it out for each day?

[@LindaLovesCreating]

I’ve found that this doesn’t really work with the hobonichi cousin because the paper is so thin, it doesn’t do well if you place a sticker in the same place every spread. If you are set on using stickers in that way I would try to find the thinnest stickers possible (I’ve heard that clear ones are thinner than white) and try to vary your placement as much as possible!

I am a new subscriber and am loving going through your play lists from last year! For the washi I laminate 3x4 pieces of white cardstock and then wrap my washi’s around that. This way I can carry lots of my favorites with me. Hope that helps! Also, what stamp pad to you use that doesn’t bleed through the paper too badly?

[@LindaLovesCreating]

Thanks! I found some plastic sheets on Amazon that I can do the same with. I use the black staz-on for most of my stamping and it doesn’t bleed, but it does ghost a little. I make sure to not use a super juicy new pad though, that might bleed!

Thank you!

Love your planner vids…so helpful as I plan my planner for 2024. I am also testing a Hobonichi Avec before I commit. Question…you mentioned your the tabs, I was planning to buy Mylar tabs because I love the look. What tabs would you recommend? Are your tabs folded over Mylar?

[@LindaLovesCreating]

Thanks! The tabs I used are a thick vellum and they don’t fold over, they just stick onto the front of the page. I didn’t have an issue with them falling off, but some of them have broken off. I’m unsure which ones I plan to use next year, but these are the ones I had this year: www.graciedits.com/product-page/monthly-index-tabs

[@angelaurbano8786]

Thanks for sharing…looking forward to more of your Hobonichi learnings 😊

Such a well-used planner! What do you track in your yearly overview?

[@LindaLovesCreating]

Thank you! For the first half of the year I was tracking: daily plan, budgeting, Pilates/yoga, 10k steps, hike/other exercise, journal, creative time, picking up the house, cleaning the kitchen, and reading.
