2025 Common Planner Release #2 | N1 and N2

[@ameliachai7026]

The more consumers are given options, the more demanding they become. For years before Sterling Ink came into existence, we were all stuck with the same boring colors and designs from Hobonichi and we still bought them and, hey surprise!, the world didnt end. Catherine has put more effort and transparancy and listened to what we want than other planner/notebook producers on the market.

[@SterlingInk]

Thank you so much for understanding! I really appreciate it.

[@SamisSweetLife]

While I agree with a lot of what you are saying and the message behind it... I never bought a TRP planner at all UNTIL Sterling Ink because exactly what you said, the Hobonichis are OOGLY. I saw that gorgeous pink SI cover and tried a TRP for the first time ever. And I do totally agree she has done amazing things. But a lot of us didn't just "still bought them" with regards to the hobonichis because oof! (I'm a planner reviewer so I finally bought some hobos for 2025, and yeah still think they are ugly lol)

[@bellaluna321]

​@@SamisSweetLifeOk but it's still quite a bit of entitlement to expect a new planner company to offer any and all colors just bc you want that color.. Every company is different and we are lucky there is some consumer feedback taken into consideration with these independent companies!

[@sashaeliot6074]

I don't understand why some people are upset that all the sizes are not available in all the cover colors. What matters is the layout and the fact that she has included more sizes (B5 in particular has my heart ❤‍🔥). That yearly tracker she has added for this year is a game changer as different people can use it in different ways. Having a horizontal layout option instead of the vertical layout is brilliant as well. 😍🥰

[@SterlingInk]

Thank you so much for understanding :)

[@tiffanymo3683]

We may not be getting the sizes we want in the colors we want, but we all bought the Hobonichi Cousin in that god awful color for years so we will survive. The Common Planner is still the best planner 🥇

[@ItsjustmeAR]

Facts

[@17...20]

🤣🤣🤣💯💯💯 This is so true!

[@17...20]

@@tiffanymo3683 I only bought one (Hobo Cousin Avec) and had to cover it with pretty paper IMMEDIATELY 😂 Let's not forgot all the money 💰 people shelled out to cover the quotes and back pages. Catherine's products are upgrade through and through 🏆

[@Hereforthecommentsection]

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@myrenecopeland1957]

Say That for the people in the back 😊

[@DreamEverything]

The fact of the matter is that most people will have their planners covered inside a beautiful leather or fabric cover. The colors are beautiful. I’m excited

[@SterlingInk]

🙌🙌

[@AileenTownsend]

Do you happen to know of a good cover for the N2 size? I always keep my planners in a cover but I don't know if this N2 would fit in a traditional TN with bands? Thanks!

[@DreamEverything]

@@AileenTownsend it’s a weeks size equivalent. Search the Weeks measurements when looking at covers.

[@kat-yd6je]

Catherine, I just want to say you have so much patience and grace. I see so many of the same questions over and over that could be answered just by watching your videos lol I could never, I find myself getting annoyed on your behalf sometimes 😅

[@SterlingInk]

Haha no problem it's my pleasure. I fully understand not everyone has the time to sit through the whole video. I am the same way :)

[@Tria0526]

I say this almost every time I read comments! I COULD NEVER 😂😂. I have zero patience to deal with the constant questions and whining. Bless you, Catherine.

[@JessicaSmith-ie7cm]

The comment section actually reminds me of students. I think one gets used to answering questions over and over because we all take in information differently but adults are here…BUT my students are adults too 🤣

[@SamisSweetLife]

ha ha same same. I was reading the comments sections like, did we just watch the same video because I can answer that Q...

[@sharonwu186]

THANK YOU for adding on-screen text to show what you're talking about in the video. There is A LOT of useful information in these videos and they very quickly get confusing since the planners can look very similar on screen. Also I really appreciate chopping up this year's videos into 3 parts. Makes it SO much easier to digest and re-watch to find what I'm looking for. I would love it if you put even more text throughout the video, as it would really help me as a visual and not audio learner.

[@SterlingInk]

Thank you so much! We will try to do that for the next one :)

[@mollymollie6048]

I’m really looking forward to ordering from you! I also want to say that I really appreciate all of the hard work and behind the scenes effort you are doing. My father owned his own business and I understand how much hard work, dedication, stress, and excitement there is in creating something that is your own, being your own boss, and YES, carefully examining the data, polling for interests and then see how sales match in order to shape the product line to suit the majority of regular customers as well as enticing new ones. It’s a LOT of work, and I thank you for it!!! I hope people don’t give you a hard time about “this size isn’t in the color I wanted 😢😢” and understand that you aren’t a huge factory, you’re a small business, and, well, you can’t satisfy everyone, and it’s a waste of time trying. There are a thousand covers to buy, or ones you can create yourself if your perfect size is a color you don’t like. It’s okay, people!!! As a scientist, I also appreciate your use of data (this planner is a scientist’s dream, quite frankly…and a love of science, data, and organization doesn’t mean you also don’t love fun, creativity, and a space made for self-expression. I hope you know that your work is very appreciated, and your hard work and dedication will pay off! Looking forward to the A5 video, and I need to go back and look at the pocket and passport one again, so I can see if that’s something that will work for me (never had a tiny little planner!)

[@SterlingInk]

Thank you so much Molly, I really appreciate you taking the time to send me your encouragement. It really does take so much more planning and action in order to get all the products designed and created and launched, but this launch specifically is the biggest one that is incomparable to any other release. So thank you so much for seeing through that and recognizing the effort that goes into it. I hope my kids also see how we work and can also send others in the future the same kind of positive energy as you have done to me. Thank you so much again and I hope you will find something you like :)

[@mollymollie6048]

@@SterlingInk You’re very welcome!! I think your kids will very much see and be inspired by the hard work you do. This is a huge launch for a newer company, and I know you’re worried…but Sterling Ink and all of the changes have been a big buzz and a lot of people are interested not only because of the changes to the interior design, but also that you offer a lot of sizes that fill people’s needs/style of planning. I wish you the best of success in this launch. You’ve done a fantastic job. What I’ve seen is people’s videos being really pleased that you have the sizes (and not really worrying about the cover colors) but the variety of sizes seems to be a great appeal (as it is to me as well!!) It seems like people really like your products and I’m looking forward to mine!! You can do it!!!! I’m happy to spread the encouragement and I’m glad it felt good to you. I’ve been the lucky recipient of some random acts of kindness recently and I’m glad my comment created a sense of that for you!!

[@joannabosse8475]

Thanks so much for the N2 (weeks) vertical!! what is my absolute perfect layout, but no one has carried it before you.

[@SterlingInk]

Thank you so much! I am keeping it for people like you. I really appreciate it. Your support will help keep this SKU available for future releases.

[@amandastarshine89]

I’m so excited to try it! I love the sneaker weeks mega but wished it was vertical for a specific need I have - and this is a better version of what that would be with all the goals and quarterly stuff - thank you :)

[@brandigarcia9823]

I'm new here and I've been looking for a small planner like the N2 that still has hourly. So hard to find.

[@carmentorres7434]

Thank you so much for keeping the N2 vertical because it’s the one I absolutely love

[@SterlingInk]

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it.

[@pineconelife]

Your videos are great, Catherine. Amazing what you have pulled off! So many choices. Thank you. I am so excited for the A5 video! Thank you also for letting us put holds on so our orders ship all together. Also, thanks for the $8 flat rate to Europe! Best deal for shipping I’ve come across so far. You really do a great job at listening to us!

[@SterlingInk]

Thank you so much for recognizing the effort! I am just trying to treat the customers like how I would like to be treated as a customer. I appreciate your kind words!

[@katryalls6323]

The N2 vertical is my favorite and love the neutral colors you chose. I would be happy with any color as it’s all about the function for me, so glad you created this. It’s the only planner I need and keeps me on track with work!

[@SterlingInk]

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!

[@17...20]

ALL of the colors by Sterling Ink are GORGEOUS - regardless of our fave color.

[@SterlingInk]

Thank you so much! I personally think they are all beautiful :)

[@MoniM_]

I am so happy you are keeping the N2 vertical - nthat makes me so happy . the vertical layout is what I have always loved and I love the size of the full year N2. thank you!!!

I really love the behind the scenes information you're sharing here, and I love that you are so thoughtful about the choices you are making as a company.

Thank you so much! I really really appreciate it!

[@VeganOrganizer]

These are all beyond stunning! You're a true miracle worker, Catherine! ❤ You put such an incredible amount of energy, time, and thought into your products and it really shows. The colours are all beautiful and it's amazing that you offer so many different layouts. 100% behind you and all the incredible work you do for the planner community!

[@sentient.ball.of.stardust]

I am so impressed with your effort and determination to listen to your customers! I absolutely love that, and you keeping N2 Vertical alive just for a few customers is beyond considerate! Can't wait for launch day! 🥰 The N1 Vertical in Camel is going to be a perfect match for my new fountain pen, the stars lined up perfectly.

[@SterlingInk]

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!

I was praying it would come in vertical full year but I'll just have to get both now lol

[@kaede1924]

I really appreciate all the explanations you share for the options! I of course had my heart set on a certain combination, so hearing the explanations helps me accept the options available (and that no, I don't need *everything* to be in Forest green! 😅). Thank you for all the hard work you are putting into these beautiful notebooks!

[@SterlingInk]

Thank you so much!

[@emilyinwhite]

I ordered a planner in 2023, beautiful but the print was so light. I saw your darker print for 2025 and passed up Hobonichi this year. Thank you for making the change! 🎉

[@SterlingInk]

thats amazing to hear, thank you so much for making the switch over. Welcome to the SI family!

[@dianemilligan7370]

I discovered the Common Planners last year. After many years of Hobonichi exclusively, this year I am switching to a Sterling Ink option to replace my last Hobonichi hold-out, the Weeks. Then I will be exclusively Common Panner. Very excited and looking forward to getting my new set up going for 2025. 😄

[@SterlingInk]

Thank you so much!!! I really appreciate it :)

[@fine_nib_witch]

Aw bummer, I was really hoping to get one of the new colors, but I'm pretty set on using the N1-V full year for 2025, after I ran out of pages in the compact on 2024. I'll still buy it in Caramel but I was looking forward to the tweed or linen. I totally understand where you're coming from though, it's a business at the end of the day. I hope you don't discontinue the N1-V ever :) ty for all the work!

[@Chaos_and_Creativity]

Same. I thought it was a popular size and layout!

[@SterlingInk]

Yes I am not sure why it's not more popular either.

[@jennthern5330]

I am sooo excited for the N2 in fairy floss! I gave up on my Hobonichi planners for your products. They are readily available and such good quality. Hang in there :)

[@SterlingInk]

Thank you so much!

[@00tlo00]

I’m so happy you added the yearly overview layout!🎉 That is typically where I track my paydays, days off and on call weekends in my Weeks. I think I can completely wean myself off of Hobonichi for 2025.

[@SterlingInk]

that is a great way to use it and track everything!

[@belinda1596]

Love your products so much Catherine, we really appreciate all the hard work you do to try to keep everyone's interest in mind. Personally I'm a huge fan of the notebooks and the fact that you offer those in gold edging as well. My style changes sometimes from week to week so being able to draw up my own layout but still have that beautiful sophisticated look is very much appreciated! Definitely takes the typical notebook look to the next level. Love it! ❤

[@SterlingInk]

Thank you so much!!!! I really appreciate it!

[@season.appreciation8102]

Thank you so much Catherine for all your hard work and attention to detail. I’m a new customer from the UK and really looking forward to ordering my first N2. As someone else said, it’s the INSIDE of the planner that’s most important - people can always tweak the cover or put another one over the top if it’s not quite to their taste. (You can’t please all of the people all of the time). You already offer a fantastic product - I wish I’d discovered you before I bought my Hobonichi weeks for this year! So I’m looking forward to placing my order. 😊

[@SterlingInk]

thank you so much for understanding! Appreciate all the kind words on the planner and glad to hear you are looking forward to the 2025 planner!! ❤️

[@shelleytaylor1778]

Can’t wait. Ordering the N1h compact…whatever color you have. They are all gorgeous!!

Thank you so much for providing all of this information in such an organized manner. Your shop is easily becoming my favorite.

[@SterlingInk]

thanks so much for saying that about our shop!

[@tigerlily006]

Wow, just wow. Can’t wait to make my first purchase from the UK. Great video showing size comparisons, helps to see the interior size even though they are all the same, I need to see the column size etc so really love you did that x

[@SterlingInk]

thank you so much for all of the kind words and also an early welcome to the SI family!

[@RealMoriSenpai]

Honestly verrrrry sad the Tweed isn't available for N1-V. It's always on the horizontals. But I do understand the logic and rationale behind your decision-making, Catherine. :) Thanks so much for all the beautiful work!

[@SterlingInk]

Thank you so much for understanding. The Vs in narrow and smaller sizes are just not very popular unfortunately which I can understand because they get very narrow, although Vs are my favorite no matter what size :)

[@artist2author]

Please don't get rid of the N1! I use four of them along with booklets and am not a travelers notebook person. I don't like the weeks at all. You have spoiled me with the planners and can't go back to Hobonichi. I will be trying the dailies in A5 and can't wait for the B5. Also, please have a caramel or black because I can't stand pink in any form. I'm not trying to be pushy or a pain, I just love your products! I also purchase these as gifts for family and friends which are also no pink people. This video concerns me only in the fact of your surveys. I have my own business and understand what you are saying but I have had this happen to me too often and am just pleading and praying. Thank you for listening and I have the dates posted. Can't wait!!!

[@SterlingInk]

Thank you so much! I really appreciate you voicing your opinion. This is the exact reason why I can't make single color option planners in the "flashier" colors like pink or purple or tweed or linen because I know too well about people's concern and the more neutral muted tones are more well accepted. N1 is not close to the chopping block at all so don't worry! Again I really appreciate your feedback.

[@artist2author]

@@SterlingInk To many not in the Planner tribe this would seem silly, but I felt like I was holding my breath until I knew. Thank you for the reassurance that I know my enjoyment of N1 will not disappear

[@Kaymuun]

I am so glad you decided offering more different layouts than the same layout in more different colors.

[@SterlingInk]

Thank you so much!

[@anaschrepel2742]

Ok, I’m in love. I was struggling with trying to find a smaller planner with a vertical layout, this is a game changer! I’m in love with the n2 vertical and the color ❤

I have used vertical weeks for three years now, similar sized to N2 V. We’re definitely a small crowd but i cannot seem to stick any other formats other than vertical. Love all your lineup btw!

amazing to hear that you have been using the vertical system for 3 years now, and appreciate you saying that about the lineup!

[@mrskellymontes]

Love your planners. I’m getting the n2 vertical compact & forest is one of my favorite colors your offer 🥹

[@SterlingInk]

thats a great choice for a planner!

[@SamisSweetLife]

Welp, it looks like I am going to NEED N2 and N1 options because I gotta have the new pink and purple. I was going between which size I was going to get for next year (I used one of each all year, one for my youtube channel and one for my workout planner). THANK YOU!! I am 100% a pink girlie so I really appreciate your willingness to pivot and still make a pink option available. In the future I would love the caramel/mist texture option in a pink color if that's ever possible. I love the look and feel of that texture. And the gold edge option is one of my favorite Sterling Ink touches! I've been with you since the beginning and I am so happy to see your growth and love that you've still kept the gold option across the board.

[@SterlingInk]

Thank you the new pink and purple are both so gorgeous and pair so nicely together. Thank you so much for choosing us every year since we have launched! I really appreciate it!

[@michellekay06]

I’m so torn 😂 I love tweed, but I’m also considering a full year in N2. I know my 12 year old will want the fairy floss. No questions there!

[@SterlingInk]

Haha thank you so much!

[@GothicWiccan61]

I am so excited!!! This is the first planner that I’ve stuck with for almost a whole year!!! Oh yes things have constantly changed and I fell off at times because of life however I kept coming back to my common planner. Basically what I’m trying to say is that you’ve made such a brilliant product and I plan on stocking up on some undated planners and notebooks just in case you decide to retire lol I love the selection!! I’m not picky about the colors all I care about is what’s on the inside! Plus my notebook is never naked #moterm

[@SterlingInk]

Haha thank you so much! Retiring lol I have not thought about that but yea that day would come I guess :)

[@lek18900]

If you had any idea how long I’ve been thinking that a Weeks Vertical layout would be my ideal EDC… Thank you so much for providing this option even if there isn’t as much demand. I’m still deciding whether I’ll want a full or compact size (also taking into consideration my Weeks cover) but I can’t wait for the launch!!

These planners are so beautiful and such great quality I wish I can buy them all. It would be super extra awesome if there was an option to get the months followed by the weeks instead of having all the months together in one section but I will still buy these planners the way they are because they are so beautiful. I absolutely love them!!! ❤

[@SterlingInk]

really appreciate you for making that suggestion!

[@fantasyafield]

Thank you for the pink comparison! I love the quartz so much, but I totally understand needing to change it and knew there would be good reasons! I have been debating doing something small in the fairy floss to go with the forest and mulberry but couldn’t decide and this really helped!

[@SterlingInk]

I loved the Quartz too, but the preorder and later sales showed that it wasn't as popular as the other sizes. and really too bad about how the material was just not suitable for what we wanted to do.

[@myDemoji]

@@SterlingInk totally understandable, I run a small business too and it’s impossible to make everyone happy.

[@demigough2040]

🥰😍such a great clear and informative video, thank you so much Catherine. My only problem now is N1 or N2, I love the Mulberry but also love the pink, so I guess as I'm working😩when they go live (I'm in the UK) I'll just have to see what's left when I finish. 🤞fingers crossed. But to be honest if there's none left in either I'll just get a different one and put a cover on it, its the horizontal layout I'm loving.

hope you were able to get what you want, and like you said either way you have a solution for it!

Thank you! I have to look at the inventory on that :)

[@cali_graphgirl]

all of the colors are beautiful (except Onyx for me) - it's the layout that matters! excited about the Pink this year because I loved the original paper mauve!

[@SterlingInk]

Thank you so much! Yea I realized that there are some people who don't like onyx through my conversation with customers which is why we try to mix up the colors for the single color option ones. Thank you so much for understanding.

[@che5music]

I was hoping to buy a vertical n2 in a pink color this year. The pink color was the reason I tried a lot of your products last year. 😢

[@SterlingInk]

Unfortunately N2V is really not very popular and I really questioned whether I should continue offering it but ultimately decided to keep it for those who seek it out. For this reason I am unable to offer it in more than one color way and our past data shows us that pink is not the most purchased color compared to others.

[@lynnconroy8]

As always, clear and concise.

[@SterlingInk]

Thank you so much!

[@PlanYourOneLife]

Will the mulberry cover be available in the N2 compact? 😢 I loved the quartz and the mauve...I liked that they looked more muted. But I understand why you had to change it to the brighter pink cover.

[@Chaos_and_Creativity]

She states all the colors and sizes in the video. Only mist, tweed, and fairy floss for that size/layout.

N1 in mulberry is very tempting, we’ll see if I can hold out for a mulberry notebook

[@SterlingInk]

the N1 in mulberry is a great choice!

[@vozezh3855]

Just discovered your KZbin channel and business today ! The N1 planner is literally my dream planner. Sadly, your shop doesn't have an option for delivery to Russia. Anyway, I'm excited for you and your customers❤

[@SterlingInk]

glad to hear that you are happy about the new addition of the yearly tracker! thats a great way to use it too so you can visualize your year

[@aaammmddd]

Can't wait to get the N2-V for 2025!

[@SterlingInk]

thats a great choice!

[@JGVIllustrations]

Incredible lineup!

[@SterlingInk]

Thank you so much!

Does the mulberry feel as smooth as the forest?

[@SterlingInk]

Mulberry is smooth but it's matte where as I feel forest has a bit of a shine.

The look of the N1 vertical (and the pretty caramel colour) is so gorgeous to me, I loooove the narrow-but-tall dimensions. I keep flipping back and forth between wanting an N1 or a B6, ah why is this so hard 😅

[@SterlingInk]

such a hard decision to make! and I love the caramel color too ❤️

[@julieloop506]

Hey Catherine! Love the detailed videos you've been coming out with recently; they're really helping me decide on my planner for 2025. I'm between B6 slim H and N1 H. I'm trying to decide how much room I need in my weekly and how many pages I want in the back lol. All I know is my Hobonichi weeks is a little too small! Although, I do have a few questions: 1) Will these new colors be offered in notebook form? I'm just thinking that something like tweed would be fabulous for a B6 grid notebook! And 2) Will you continue to stock notebooks in the previous colors (like mist and forest)? I adore the mist color and would like to have a notebook in it; I just want to make sure, if I wait to buy, some will still be there! Thank you for all your hard work! 😁💖

[@SterlingInk]

Thank you so much!!! 1) We still have a lot of inventory of the notebooks so they won't be stocked in the new colors until the stock is low. 2) Some of the notebooks are in Mist and Forest, it depends on size. Again it really depends on demand. It seems like a lot of people want to see notebooks in the new colors so those might be first.

[@julieloop506]

@@SterlingInk Gotcha! That makes sense. I see that the B5 comes in mist and I might have to snag it soon 👀 Thank you! 💖

[@sukichan6572]

i love the idea of making the horizontal pages have the grid as well. my writing in my HB weeks aren't already straight and it would bother me so much LOL

[@SterlingInk]

thanks so much, and same here with writing straight!

[@vee9133]

What brand covers will fit the N1? I am new to this and would like to get a cover for the N1

[@SterlingInk]

Depends on what thickness you get. Gillio, van der spek, bujoplanner, eternal leather goods etc . I showed cover fits at the end of 2024 planner video if you want to check it out

[@crystalplanss]

I'm sorry if this question has already been addressed I haven't been able to find any info on it but I'm wondering will the fairy floss in n2 horizontal compact be restocked ? Thank you Catherine!❤

[@SterlingInk]

if everything goes as planned, we should be restocking in December

[@delilahpatton2635]

Now how am I supposed to choose between Mulberry and Fairy Floss..... might have to get both!!

[@SterlingInk]

ohhhhh that's a difficult choice :)

[@MissRuthina]

I am going to be trying a common planner... Haven't decided if I'm gonna ditch the last 3 months of my hobonitchi or use a TN weekly to get me over the line to 2026... I don't know if I want an N1 or N2. Compact for sure... So hard to choose... But these look so good!!

[@SterlingInk]

Thank you so much!

[@yvettepalacios3435]

I wonder if the waste from the planners could be turned into patchwork planners?

[@SterlingInk]

I am not really sure about that haha.

[@AileenTownsend]

I'm so excited for the N1 layout and sizs, but wondering what covers people like to use with this size? Does this type of book fit inside a regular TN with bands? Is there another cute option! I've always used Hobonichi, Moterm or TN covers for A6, Weeks etc . This will be my first Common Planner purchase! ❤

[@SterlingInk]

glad to hear you are excited for the release! and these should fit inside a regular TN with bands since they are the standard sizes. Also an early welcome to the SI family!

[@maryrartist2905]

I love the N1 …but you have the clear cover for them? ❤

[@SterlingInk]

yes, we just received clear covers in this size if you want to check it out on our website!

[@kellydavis6592]

I know you sell stickers for the monthly calendars on your website, but it seems like they’re only for undated planners. Would you consider releasing the same stickers on matte paper that would cover the existing dates? I desperately need a Sunday start for the monthly section! I know some planner companies have a “Sunday conversion” sticker kit, and I would love if y’all would consider the same!

[@SterlingInk]

I am afraid that the matte version would be too thick and would bulk up even more which is why we offer the Washi version which is very thin. For covering up the dates, I would suggest whiting out the words underneath and placing the sticker on top.

[@kellydavis6592]

@@SterlingInkoh, that’s a great idea… thank you! I’m a little embarrassed I didn’t think of it. Looking forward to the launch 😊

[@katebaker8763]

I’ve never ordered from Sterling Inc. I’m considering it possibly n2 full version for budgeting I use a planner and it keeps me on track but it’s huge and I want to size down thinking it would be great projects and managing the house so maybe that as well back any thoughts with that work?
