My Planner Lineup for 2025 | Ft. New Commonplace Book, Hobonichi A6 and Weeks, TN and more!

[@abookabrewandcraftingtoo]

A girl can never have too many planners. I even have a Christmas planner that only comes for two months a year but it gives me a creative outlet for Christmas stress

[@stacysspace]

Haha! Same here! I forgot about it until I read this too! It's a Cath Kidston one I bought years ago! 🙈😂😂😂

[@SamisSweetLife]

Same girl same! I love the idea of calling it an experimental year! I have soooo many great planners to review and play around with for 2025. And I am not necessarily committing to using any single one 100% of the year. But I have big plans for my goals and big plans for playing around with lots of pretty paper and pens lol.

[@stacysspace]

Haha! How many years do you think I can get away with calling 'experimental' because I fear next year will be one too! 🙈😂 That's the problem-all of the pretty paper and pens (and accessories, books, charms, stickers...)!! Well, if my channel takes off like yours, I might just be able to justify it for 'work'! 🤞😂🙈

[@Crystalwren]

I appreciate seeing all your planners, and knowing that you’re experimenting, and I enjoy the encouragement for us to do the same. My current obsession is setting up a travelers notebook and a commonplace book! 😊 Thanks for all the tips & explanations!

[@stacysspace]

Oh, I am so glad! I am just starting to experiment with a Standard Travellers Notebook and I think I love it! So glad you are finding my videos useful 😊

One of the few perks of being an adult is that we can buy all the things if we so choose, so never feel bad for wanting to play with all the pretty paper things. Since I was diagnosed with arthritis last month, I’m downsizing for 2025 because I just can’t fill up, and honestly don’t need, an A5 sized page. I’m going with a Hobo Weeks Mega, an A6 and B6 Wonderland222, and an Aura Estelle Daily Weeks. I’m just trying all the smaller things in 2025 and also am going with planners that have the months and weeks grouped together (excluding the Hobo Weeks).

[@stacysspace]

Sorry to hear about your diagnosis, it is a great idea to downsize. You are right-I definitely shouldn't feel bad for indulging in my hobby-thank you. I would love to know what you think of the B6 Wonderland222 and Aura Estelle Daily Weeks because I have never tried those.

[@LeoGirl80]

@ Hobbies are designed to bring us joy, so why not invest in what makes us happy?! I love the Wonderlands and the Aura Estelle so far! The grouped months and weeks is making me excited to forward plan, a thing I rarely do. If Wonderland had a Weeks size, I probably would’ve just gotten all W22. The paper is comparable to other TRP planners and I’m not finding there to be intense bleedthru in any of them, including the Aura Estelle. Since the Aura is a proper 2025 start I haven’t played in it as much as I have the rest.

[@stacysspace]

I love that perspective-I will be borrowing it from now on 😂 I am new to both Aura Estelle and Wonderland and I would love to try them-Aura Estelle's covers and stickers and general aesthetic is so beautiful. The shipping costs to the UK are not fun but are very fair in comparison to Hobonichi so maybe I will give them a try next year.

[@LeoGirl80]

@ I totally get the shipping cost being a deterrent. That’s why I didn’t get the Papertess weekly this year. I just couldn’t stomach the shipping lol. I might do it though if I don’t get it out of my mind lol.

[@tortagialla]

Thanks for showing the midori commonplace book - I was wondering what it was! 😍

[@stacysspace]

You are welcome! I am absolutely desperate to use it if I am honest, but I am making myself finish my current one first because I know I will never complete it otherwise 🙈😂

[@LedgerAndLace]

Oh, I've seen WAY more! Have you read Liz Gilbert's BIG MAGIC? You might appreciate it. She talks about creativity and curiosity and it's really good stuff--very Julia Cameron adjacent. 🙂

[@stacysspace]

Haha! I am already planning on my next purchases so it looks like I am over my concerns 🙈😂 No, I haven't read that, but I will add it to my TBR-thank you so much x

[@ziggy2255]

Nobody needs to justify or explain their decisions. My line up for 2025 is weeks main planner, A6 weekly supplement bag carry, A6 original memory keeper, A6 5 year, A5 Kinbor for work and Kinbor weeks for health journal. Feels a lot but I know from many many years of planning what works for me.

[@stacysspace]

Thank you, you are right. I think being relatively new to the 'good' brands and collecting stationery, I feel a bit OTT sometimes, and then on days like today, I feel I don't have enough 🙈😂 I haven't tried the Kinbor planners-are they good? Are they similar to Hobonichi?

[@ziggy2255]

@stacysspace veeeeery similar and much cheaper!
