I think I smell that gorgeous leather from here ughhhh 😍😍😍

[@samplans]

It’s smelled so good!

[@louisem6176]

Keep it Sam. Just pop it out of sight and then when you go back to a weeks it will be a lovely surprise as you can change back straight away - no waiting 2 months for a beautiful cover.

[@samplans]

You have a good point!

[@loreedavis9592]

I have several Janet Leather planners all different sizes, some with rings, some are TN’s. Janet leather does patina beautifully. In my opinion it is the best leather that VDS offers! Yours is gorgeous.

[@samplans]

I can see why you love it! I just smile each time I look at it!

[@peachyplanner4834]

I LOVE my JL custom standard. I try not to worry about stains and it’s my planner this year and it stays in my purse. It’s soft, smells great and is gorgeous.

[@samplans]

It’s the most exquisite leather!

[@BlushnBlue]

Definitely beautiful. One day in life I will have to try a VDS. I think I would like something like that for the Hobo Cousin. Thank you for sharing Sam.

[@samplans]

I think you’d adore VDS!!

[@SYRSALLY]

Your new vids is gorgeous.

[@angiepayne6104]

The JL is my favorite- Keep it in case you use the weeks again

[@Bronte30]

This is gorgeous Sam! I have a Special Nomad in JL black that I purchased off BST, and it is gorgeous! I've been thinking about ordering a weeks, and this may have just convinced me to do it!

[@samplans]

I hope you order one!

[@thedivinefemme5285]

It's a beautiful leather. Just beware of liquids, including raindrops...ask me how I know, lol.

[@samplans]

That’s what I am afraid of!!

[@kloughman100]

That is absolutely beautiful! ❤️❤️❤️

[@nola_plans]

JL Brown is my FAVORITE VDS leather! Apple Guard that baby and use it! 😊

[@samplans]

I had my husband do two coats and I moved in!

[@nola_plans]

@@samplans yay!! Enjoy your custom! And, totally unrelated, but I’m originally from Massillon. Go Tigers! 🐯

[@StacyEspinoza]

You’ll want to spray that with Apple Guard or something like that. The jl brown is a sensitive leather. Gorgeous cover.

[@samplans]

We gave it two coats!

[@connieolson8497]

Is that Gillio a muppet? I have Gillio muppet kermit green. I love it. But like you said it is a little large but it can hold a lot too I love the back pocket.

[@samplans]

Yes it is! Rowlf, and I love it.

[@MunchkinTran]

Gorgeous!!! ❤️❤️❤️

[@siennacharles9220]

She's gorgoeous! I'd be interested in this beauty if you decide to sell her at some point. In the meantime, may you use her in good health. Thanks for sharing her with us.

[@samplans]

I think she’s a keeper!

[@siennacharles9220]

@@samplans that's awesome! Enjoy her and all her beauty!

[@debbieperleberg8230]

Hi, Sam. This is gorgeous. When you custom order, is it possible to have one made that will fit a Hobo Weeks with the cover on cover?

[@samplans]

Yes, you’d need to request the height to accommodate. I just chose not to and avoid further expense.

[@coco_plans]

Congratulations, Sam! It’s stunning 🤎

[@samplans]

Thanks!

[@happyone444able]

Hi Sam! This was a very helpful review and I will plan to order one. I want to order one in black. If you have time would you share exactly what you did on the site or did you send an email with your specifications? I am so confused when I look around on their site. But these are beautiful and would probably last forever! Thanks again for your review!!

[@samplans]

I only selected the base Standard Mega Codex, and chose JLB for all options. I included in my notes that I wanted lots of texture, and then emailed that I would prefer a gold popper, but you can just add that in your notes. I would have but didn’t know that was an option.

[@happyone444able]

@@samplans Thank you very much!! This is my first year using Hobonichi weeks and Cousin and I am loving it! Thanks again Sam for taking the time and for the great video review as it has helped me make a decision!!

[@00tlo00]

I wish the codex came with the height to accommodate the CoC. I ordered a custom and had mine increased but- cha-ching! That’s one nice thing about the Gillio. Anyway, hit me up if you decide to sell the rust slim Appunto!😉

[@samplans]

Email me! I’ll list it later this week if you decide not to get it.

[@mrsdudeandkids]

It's a beautiful cover, but it won't change your pen issue.

[@samplans]

So true. That stupid paper!

[@ginamiller6754]

It’s beautiful! Now, you need an A6 in JL brown. 😉

[@samplans]

Right?!
