For someone that is new to the Hobonichi club, you have dressed it fabulously. Your humor is spot on cause we are all a bit cra cra It is amazing how much you can get into this tiny book, and if you write small, even better. Thanks for sharing.

I love the way you plan, I’ve watched a few of your videos and you’ve shown me how to be creative without spending a fortune on stickers, I’ve completely changed the way i plan in my weeks. Thank you and please keep the videos coming

[@tansueyi]

That's the most functional/use for the annual I have ever seen! ♡ I never know what to do for any annual pages. All I do is write birthdays down and I have maybe 10 people that I actually care enough to want a reminder for their birthday so it always end up being blank and wasted. Thank you for the ideas

[@Addicted2Planning]

Sue-Yi Tan thanks for watching!! :)

[@tansueyi]

You're welcome. It was a pleasure

Love your video. Super straight forward. I watched this about a year ago and I ended up buying a TN pocket plus. Now I'm waiting for my first hovo weeks 😁

[@Addicted2Planning]

Thanks!! I hope you love it as much as I do!!

[@kimberlyhanson965]

I love your tip in idea!

[@coconutdance1615]

Waow! What a surprise! I thought about this planner too this year but I bought too many planners so I have enough to test right now. Really curious to see if you will enjoy planning in this tiny planner. I really have to make my daily and monthly checklist and my weekly review. Thanks for sharing this again!

[@Addicted2Planning]

Coconut dance maybe come fall you’ll be ready to take the plunge for 2020! ☺️

[@laurie2553]

Love this video, lots of new to me tips, so thank you!

[@Addicted2Planning]

Thank you for watching!! I have more in my 2020 set up video....

[@IncurablyCreative]

Oh my gosh! @LindseyScribbles was so right 🎉 This is so helpful. Thank you ⭐️ Getting my brain to focus in a practical way about this stuff these days is like herding cats. I bullet journaled for years, then life kind of exploded and i drifted from one planner to another, without much success. Last year i caved and decided to see why Hobonichi is so popular and I’ve spent a year in a Weeks Mega. I set it up when it arrived in October (in the back) like a bullet journal hybrid and for the first time in years every month and week has been used so far. Which is kind of miraculous to me. I’ve been experimenting with multiple ways of using the weeklies, and am finally inching towards something that works (tho Lindsey’s recent video has me pondering a couple of tweaks to it) and as I haven’t used all the pages in the back yet I went for a regular weeks this year. So I’m pondering how to best set up all the adulting stuff in one place - and this is helping the process enormously. So I’m about to start inhaling your content. Again, Thank you 😊

[@Addicted2Planning]

Awww! What a wonderful comment! Thank you for watching & thank you for commenting! I’m so glad you found something helpful here. The weeks is pretty great!

[@cbss1487]

[@Addicted2Planning]

Aww. Thank you! ☺️

[@michelewhite1956]

Lol you are not alone! It really is obsessive and someone needs to do a study on the phenomenon! I bought an A5 Avec while I waited for my Weeks Mega to arrive from a Hobonichi group buy online. I have consumed well over 100 videos! And yet it was SO hard to actually put pen to paper lol. And obviously I watched many - more than once lol like yours!

[@Addicted2Planning]

Michele White Aw!! Thank you for watching!! Are you happy in your set up now?

[@michelewhite1956]

Jodie Kelly yay!! Thank you for watching!!

[@Jolynn777]

@@Addicted2Planning I just ripped the first page🤦

[@Addicted2Planning]

Jodie Kelly oh no! I put down a full page sticker in my 2020 that went in crooked. I tried to remove and it tore the page. I had to cut the rest of the sticker & also cut the hobo paper... and had to use UnDu for the rest of the sticker. Such an epic fail. Find some pretty washi or scrapbook paper to glue in?

Excellent use of Hobo Weeks. I use those thin booklets for my dailies/Bujo, Just a thought.

[@Addicted2Planning]

Megan Campbell thanks! I just uploaded an update; I’m getting a mega for 2020 & will use the back for the daily Bullet Journal. The little notebooks will be for my @Agenda pages. :)

great video I want a hobonichi for 2020

[@Addicted2Planning]

Jonae KyOshee thanks! It’s such a great planner!!

[@pauladiaz4620]

I LOVE your cover solution! On my way to Michael’s now. I too am new to hobonichi so I’ve bought a bunch of stuff to play/experiment with & have struggled with unsatisfying covers. I could use vellum as well, right, to avoid the extra-springy cover?Yay!

[@Addicted2Planning]

Yay! Sorry I didn’t see your comment!! How did it turn out?

[@pauladiaz4620]

@@Addicted2Planning No worries--not so great. I tried it on the cousin and the paper was not the right size. I had a hard time finding vellum. I should try again on my weeks, but haven't got there yet... I'm reserving the weekend of Thanksgiving for planner set up overload!

[@Addicted2Planning]

@@pauladiaz4620 good time of year. I will be prepping my 2021 also.

[@TiffanyBisson]

You'll have to let us know how it works for you. I haven't hopped on the hobonichi train yet, but I am super tempted!!

[@Addicted2Planning]

Tiffany Bisson yes! I bit the bullet, super excited... think I’m going to love it!!

[@annadaloisio8141]

Great video! You seem to have a solid plan on how you'll be using the Hobonichi -- I have also been fascinated with all the buzz around this type of planner -- I'm afraid to commit LOL -- please keep us posted if you're still loving it. What's the Walmart wallet??

[@Addicted2Planning]

Anna Dal thanks!! I’m excited to be in it... there’s this $8 wallet at Walmart that everyone has been using, as a cover. I’ll do a quick video once I have both. 👍🏻

[@lifewithvalerie21]

New subscriber here! I have been thinking about using the Hobonichi and watching tons of videos because it’s so small and trying to decide if it’s worth picking up or not... thanks for sharing!

[@Addicted2Planning]

Nate’sMom Plans thanks for subscribing! I’m loving this planner! So lightweight & transportable. Highly recommend! 😀

[@lifewithvalerie21]

Addicted 2 Planning thank you so much for responding and your input! I need something I can take on the go because I’m constantly on the go and forgetting half the things I’m supposed to do.

[@Addicted2Planning]

Nate’sMom Plans give it a go. Think it absolutely meets those needs!

[@pengyou26]

Loved your video! I have the same acetate paper, but never thought to use it in a dashboard! Question: Have you found an ink to use with stamps that won’t bleed through the Hobonichi Tomoe River planner paper?

[@Addicted2Planning]

Misingyu2 that’s the question right?! Have you tried as many as I have?! So there is one that works... the imprint isn’t as pristine or precise as say the Versa Fine stamp pads, but those bleed like mad!! I ordered this one... works pretty good: www.simonsaysstamp.com/product/Mama-Elephant-Creative-Color-DARK-STORM-Ink-Pad-ME14012DarkStorm

[@Matt-bm3ke]

Hi! I love your channel! I really like your tip ins! Are they designed to be like a wipe off board? Like can you put checks in the boxes and erase them without an issue?

[@Addicted2Planning]

Matt hi there! Thank you!! I’m sure with a whiteboard marker you could use in that way! :)

[@glenfeasey]

Great video, I see the weeks and an ‘almost’ journaling system. I’ve had the standard, the the mega for 2020 and have the standard for 2021. I use it daily and love it but still feel it’s missing something to make it perfect. Do you get what I mean? Maybe I’m just a typical indecisive journal collector? 😂

[@Addicted2Planning]

lol. I do! And I’ve been eyeing the A6 techo. But my system works? Why fix what’s not broken? I love collecting notebooks tooooo 😄

[@JenniferPerryMyScraproom]

OMG - where did you get that "Starbucks" coffee cup stamp?

[@Addicted2Planning]

Jennifer Perry My Scraproom hi! Sorry for delayed response. They are from Tim Holtz. They come in two sizes in a whole kit... I think they’re on Amazon. Google Tim Holtz mini blueprint coffee stamp

[@pennykussman7262]

Oh man!! Now i want to try that!! But is the paper real thin? I prefer a little heavier paper. Your setup is great!!

[@lavenderlovelifeuk]

It is very thin. What is stopping me from buying one is the fact that it takes a bit of time to dry fountain pen ink 😭

[@Addicted2Planning]

Penny Kussman the paper is thin but awesome! Think of it like a “runner”, svelte but super strong! 😆

[@michelewhite1956]

I LOVE that coffee stamp! Who makes it?

[@Addicted2Planning]

Michele White it’s by Tim Holtz... :). Someone else asked here and I believe I posted a link on amazon.

[@Kathy_Ellen]

It's a HOBO-BUJO with a Splash of GTD. :) I LOVE it. Now I want to try the Weeks lol

[@Addicted2Planning]

Kathyest lol!!! Omg, I am loving this little book!! You should try it out!!

[@daxapanchal9959]

Which uk suppliers did you say you ordered the sticker kit from?

[@Addicted2Planning]

Daxa Panchal hi there... it’s an Etsy shop. She was very responsive and I’ve since learned that it has something to do with UK-USA shipping. I’ve since received them and they’re wonderful. Josephine Bow Designs is the Etsy shop and I would order again... but would set my expectations to six weeks to when I’ll see them. Why do you ask?

[@daxapanchal9959]

Hi thank you for reply. That’s great. The reason I asked is I’m in UK and I’m looking for UK supplier. So would you send me the link please?
