Making a Cover for my 2024 Hobonichi Cousin in my One Piece Thousand Sunny Logbook Cover

Hi lovelies
This is my first setup for 2024 and it’s a cute one! I’ve been wanting to do this ever since I saw someone flip through the Guidebook on KZbin.
This is a pretty simple process but I thought you might like to see how it all came together.
I will set this planner up further for use in 2024 but for now I just wanted to get the cover sorted.

"What to do to increase happiness " is how I understand it to mean. Hope that helps. I love how the cover turned out. That washi tape was the finishing touch.

[@desleyjaneplans]

Thank you! That’s a great quote, I really appreciate you letting me know. Ah thanks, I love that washi tape 🥰

You did a fantastic job on this cover. I LOVE that bear. His expression is so ... perfect for a work planner, haha. I love both pictures you were contemplating. The one with the coffee is a perfect "This is a Monday" image. The one with the planner, though, is my favorite. He reminds me of my pugs, who have that same expression all the time. Loved this video -- I like your chatty ones, because we get a peek at the thinking behind your design decisions.

[@desleyjaneplans]

Hehehe his expression really is perfect. I still want to use the one with the coffee too. Thank you SO much. I really appreciate it. X

Aw your cover turned out so cute! I really like the addition of that yellow washi tape, it finishes it off nicely.

[@desleyjaneplans]

Thank you so much! 🥰 I really love it.

This cover actually turned out reat! I am in love with the bear too but I can't bear to cut the guidebook. T_T. Maybe I will print out some images instead

[@desleyjaneplans]

You could scan it maybe? I thought about that later lol. Thanks so much 🥰🥰🥰🥰

I thought one of those bears was holding a roll of toilet paper. The little guy with the journal is my spirit animal.

[@desleyjaneplans]

🤣 oh dear! Yes I love him too 🥰

[@fagerdam]

This setup is sooo pretty! I also got the Hobonichi magazine, but I haven’t decided were to use the cute bear.

[@desleyjaneplans]

Thank you, I love it. That bear is the cutest 🥰

[@magic.nostalgic]

I absolutely love what you’ve done with the bear for the cover, and the washi is just perfection! A wonderfully understated but still adorable work planner 🐻💛 Well done!

[@desleyjaneplans]

Thank you so much! I love it 🥰 it’s turned out even better than I’d hoped.

[@deniselinscott1035]

I looooove bear themes!!!! Ahghhh sooo ca-ute!!! Now I want the guidebook so so bad haha

[@desleyjaneplans]

I can’t tell you how happy it makes me to see that little guy on my planner. I love it 🥰 Thank you ☺️

[@Vanessa-mz1cs]

[@HobbyHoppers]

That Bear!!!! So adorable and a perfect match for that cover! ❤❤❤❤❤

[@desleyjaneplans]

I love it so much! 😍

[@nattycozy1]

I love what you did with the pages! I have the same book but I'm not sure I want to use the pages but now i'm tempted!

[@desleyjaneplans]

Thank you! I love it too. It’s so nice to open the planner and see him there 🥰

[@nattycozy1]

Actually I think I will do it, otherwise the book will just collect dust eventually! Ty for the idea! :)@@desleyjaneplans

[@desleyjaneplans]

@@nattycozy1 oh yay, so glad you’re going to do it. Thank you 😊

Thanks so much! 💖

[@ZayaPlans]

that bear is too cute

[@desleyjaneplans]

He is adorable 🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@poetspicecolorwrite]

Way too cute

[@desleyjaneplans]

Aw thank you 🥰 I really love it ❤️

[@mgtogno]

i love that cover design, but its too expensive to me and im not really a one piece fan...but i loooove it

[@desleyjaneplans]

It was an expensive one I admit. I saved up and treated myself. I just love it. Not really a OnePiece fan either but I couldn’t pass up this one ❤️

[@MargotMakesIt]

So Cute! Do you currently use a Hobonichi Cousin for work? If so, HOW do you use it for work?

[@desleyjaneplans]

Thank you! I used a Cousin for work for 2022 and then I changed to the B6 PaperTess but I find I’m running out of space in that one. So I’m back in the Cousin. I use the Monthly and Weekly sections for planning. The Weekly is my favourite space. I previously used the dailies for notes but I take too many notes (maybe I’m in too many meetings lol) so I have a separate notebook for meeting notes and I want to use the daily section in the Cousin for daily planning, reference information, and reviewing my week/month.

[@darlamaple6319]

Awesome idea! Looks great and if you find out about purchasing the bears please tell us :)

[@desleyjaneplans]

Thank you! I absolutely will 💖

[@magic.nostalgic]

Yes! Would also love to know as well if you do find out!
