[@JuliesPlans]

Hey guys! My olive green weeks IS leather and I meant the SMOOTH weeks tends to not pay flat. I was just excited about my order coming so fast and got the two mixed up! Thank you for understanding 😊

[@shamalakrishnan3908]

😅

[@sherig1376]

Actually that olive green one is a leather cover. Pretty sure the soft versions are the ones that don’t lay flat. The color on that olive one is so beautiful. I bought the lavender one and the cats bow and tie for myself.

[@JuliesPlans]

Yes I addressed that in another comment :) I was just excited and got the two materials mixed up :) it happens!

[@dropslemon]

the hobonichi exclusive pen IS a uniball jetstream btw! it's just an exclusive pen body with the hobonichi logo and year on it.

[@JuliesPlans]

I think I said that? It just doesn’t have the pencil like the ones not given away by hobonichi :)

[@deniseholmes7958]

Thanks for the walk through, especially the comparisons of features from the different sizes. Happy 2024 planning!

[@ismene6546]

Thank you for sharing your haul! My favorite Hobonichi is the Cousin. It makes planning out my everyday sticker shop tasks and journaling so much easier and more fun to see my progress over time 📖

[@Appu2508]

Absolutely love your small giggles when you talk... it really releases the lines on my forehead ❤

[@allim467]

Julie! Stop making me want to buy things! 🤣

[@JuliesPlans]

🤣🤣🤣

[@sugie9513]

Love seeing your order! Can’t wait for mine to come. I got the Raspberry Mega and a Cousin this year.

[@amandamendez2875]

I love your haul!! I got mine too!! I can’t wait to see what ideas you have for the A6. I’ve never had one so I’m excited to see how you use yours.

[@JuliesPlans]

Yay!!!!! I know the A6 has me really pumped but I’m also worried for my A5 because of it 🤣

[@dzuel09]

I was shocked at how fast the order came. Like you, I ordered Thurs night and today when I saw FedEx I was like no way that’s for me. Ha. What a pleasant surprise.I got to cousin this year as well,and for the first time the weeks. I love the artist series, botanical theme cover. It’s gorgeous!

[@mayelamontenegro-urch4380]

I’ve been using Erin Condren for the last couple of years and want to switch it up a bit. Absolutely LOVING the weekly and cousin. A bit nervous about whether I’ll like the paper, but I guess I won’t know until I try it. Excellent review video!

[@LinzyMakesPlans]

This was so helpful, tysm for all the knowledge! ❤

[@JuliesPlans]

You’re very welcome!

[@tayloredplan]

Ohhh that olive green is so pretty!

[@JuliesPlans]

perfect for fall and spring, right?!?

[@ArcieCollection]

How exciting!! I'm still waiting for mine, hopefully it comes next week 😍

[@JenJthatcrazy8]

A6 is such a cute size lol! I've had the daily A6 before and enjoyed using it. I'm going back and forth on getting a Day Free and another Weeks.

[@susanpilchard5417]

That olive is pretty! Happy to see that it does lie flat!! They did knock it out of the pack with covers this year. Hard decision. I ended up with the black in the paper series. Love it!

[@SamisSweetLife]

Dang it, Julie!! Now I want a Cousin! You make it look so good. This was my first time ordering from Hobonichi and I wanted to order solely for the aqua/teal covers they had. Pink and teal are my colors. Can't wait for my order to get here. I got 2 different Weeks along with my order because I couldn't help myself lol.

[@differentkindofGEKE]

I’m so excited and low key jealous you received it so soon! I ordered launch day (US August 31) 1:37

[@marcycalderon]

Ooohhhh! That Olive Green weeks is beautiful!!! I want! :)

[@JuliesPlans]

it's my fave for sure!

[@ElizabethNorton143]

Yes!!! Been waiting It’s a GREAT WEDNESDAY AFTER ALL!!!!

[@JuliesPlans]

Yay! ❤️

[@Freckles439]

Thanks for such a thorough overview.

[@JuliesPlans]

You’re very welcome ☺️

[@desireepurto1201]

Now I'm ordering green olive, lol. It's gorgeous in person!!

[@JuliesPlans]

It really is !

[@VanessaPetiteCo]

I chose the botanical cover weeks and I'm so glad to see it lays flat! Mine's arriving thursday and I can't wait :D Thanks for your review!

[@JuliesPlans]

Oh that one is so pretty!!!!

[@journalland2891]

Love that olive weeks!

[@JuliesPlans]

Me too!!

[@asexualatheist3504]

I ordered the cousin and the Twinkle Shells cover - the one with the giraffe. I wanted whimsy.

[@gojenn0927]

Well done!!

[@cathysplans1777]

Girl if you sell the extra pens, keep me in mind please. Love to see all these Hobonichi things! The Olive is stunning!

[@nuchithoj]

Yes me too! I want to make a planner purchase just for this pen but that’s ridiculous 😂

[@catcy90]

I got a weeks with the "Tiny Dragons" aka seahorses on the cover. They are just too cute! I also got the penguin and panda mini tapes. Still haven't decided if I "need" a cousin to go along with it. Edit: HAHA! I caved. I realized I "needed" a cousin too. So, you can't have too many planners, right?

[@tammyblankenship6569]

I use mine as a schedule for my work hrs for the whole hear it looks after it's done

[@CaffeineByTwilight]

I got the botanical A5 HON. I also got the weeks in Sangria in English and the Year of the Dragon one in Japanese. I’m a terrible enabler because I also picked up some SI planners and TN…. I have a lot of medical issues as well so I know I need different planners for different things. oh also the weeks are all in the old Tomoe River paper which is why it looks different. 😊 Love your video and definitely going to subscribe for more.

[@Easypeasypumpkin]

I noticed some of the shapes on the 365 check off are cats, so cute! Also I wasnt gonna get a weeks this year, but seeing the olive green it goes perfectly with my Galen weeks cover in the green, so I may just have to suffer UK prices for one 😂😂 Great Haul!

[@mommymarthaaaaaaaaaa]

Love your choices 😍 have not ordered yet but I have used a weeks in some capacity since for the last several years so I bet it is coming 🤣 also considering a HON- just because I want to try it and I really want either a weeks or hon in the Liberty fabrics. If you decide to sell any of your pens, please let me know! I need to find people to do a group order with because I always want the pen.

[@jacquielopez5201]

I got the cousin Avec, it's going to be my all in one planner. I also have a stalology

[@JuliesPlans]

Love that!

[@Ree29Ree]

I use my weeks for medical as well

[@lydianlovesyou]

Thanks for giving me an idea to give my abandoned Hobo weeks a new life. LOL. I'm going to use it for my finances and track my spending.

[@JuliesPlans]

It’s kind of great because it’s about the size of wallet/ checkbook 😂

[@Craftyfan-ht2iz]

Last year pen was navy and brown. This one is pretty

[@JuliesPlans]

Yeah I did not like last years pen at all 🤣

[@Stormbrise]

I love the olive green also, however, I went with the Another night of sparkler stars, the artist design with the cat on a wire. As for how many notes pages, you get 366 pages next year plus the 5. I will probably do a pen test on the new paper on that one. Or pick up a A6 Day Free, since all the memos and notebooks still have the old TR paper in them. Then just keep the A6 as a pen swatch book.

[@JuliesPlans]

👏🏼 awesome

[@EmmaPlanPrettyPlan]

Oh my goodness I haven’t noticed this either!!! 😮

[@katismith]

I missed the olive green and settled for the gray.

[@JuliesPlans]

Loved the gray too!

[@wendyhoward2699]

These look great! I still want a cousin. Blessings.

[@JuliesPlans]

Thank you wendy!

[@Cocacabanabudgets]

I just learned about these today n im so sad 😢 I need 😂

[@jessicaladd85]

What some of the best anti smudge pens out there? I have the Sarasa Gel pens...and there's a little smudging

[@planwithkellye2926]

Oooohhhhhhh ❤

[@JuliesPlans]

❤️❤️❤️

[@plancreatecope]

Nice haul. I am going to try the HON this year. I thought the Olive Green was leather this year. I did buy the Hollyhocks A6 cover for my notebook.

[@JuliesPlans]

Yup I addressed it in another comment. I just got the two materials mixed up :)

[@plancreatecope]

@@JuliesPlans I didn’t know. I thought it may have been a hobo exclusive. I just bought the grey Mega. I really wish they would come out with a couple of cute covers for it.

[@joannewalker6257]

Omgosh I just bought the olive weeks after seeing your video 🫣 I love the look of the weeks but then never use it, so this year I’m gonna have to try again!!!

[@planningwithkarebear7509]

I just ordered a cousin and it will be my 1st hobonichi product...i plan to use either ink joy gel 0.7 or sarasa dry 0.7mm. Do you think that these pens will work ok with the paper?

[@LauraBeutler]

The Hobonichi pen actually IS the UNI Jetstream, just in a custom design. So you can get the refills and make it exactly the colors you want.

[@JuliesPlans]

Correct. But it also has no pencil 🤣

[@linhnguyens1]

@@JuliesPlans Not all of the Uni Jetstream multi pens have a pencil, just the Uni 4&1 body style, which has 4 pen ink colors (Black, Blue, Red, and Green) as well as a pencil 😊

[@JuliesPlans]

@@linhnguyens1 that’s what I meant by my comment above…. That it has no pencil. Not that all of them have no pencil 😅

[@kristyhall3914]

What clear cover do you have for your cousin? I didn't see it in your Amazon storefront. Thanks!

[@LusineG]

Question - I have never used an Hobonichi and want to try for 2024. I have been bullet journaling and using the Moleskine and Leuchtturm1917 A5 books. Is the Hobonichi Cousin the same size comparison? I am thinking the A6 Hobonichi might be too small for me. Thank you so much in advance!!

[@stephaniepauls1978]

I can't wait for my cousin to get here. I ordered it on 9/2 and im still waitng for my shipping notification 😢 Tad jealous of everyone who has already received theirs lol.

[@ChristaAllan1202]

How do you use the Weeks planner? I want a Cousin, but just wondering ....

[@AmberEvelyn31]

I’ve never even noticed the grid changed color !

[@JuliesPlans]

Isn’t it wild that we didn’t see it?!

[@samantharindfield3107]

Have you ever considered the cousin avec? Especially since you don't mind it in Japanese. That might help with the bulkiness, from what I've heard. Still trying to talk myself into getting one but afraid I won't be as consistent as I'd like

[@JuliesPlans]

I purchased it last year and then didn’t use it 😅 probably a good option for me though!

[@zee3e]

the pens are the uni jetstream refills! so pretty unfortunately does not come with the US reseller orders :

[@JuliesPlans]

Does that mean JetPens doesn’t have them either? 😭

[@zoeybea6984]

​@JuliesPlans Jetpens does not. I ordered my first 2 weeks from them and neither came with a pen. It was one of the reasons I ordered from Hobonichi last year I was tired of missing out on the pens 😂

[@arguchik]

@@JuliesPlans Yep, the pen and the free gift (the little bag this year) are 1101 store exclusives. I think you can buy refills for the pen at JetPens or any other retailer that carries Uni products. But no other retailers will have the Hobonichi store exclusive Jetstream pen, neither for sale nor for free.

[@msteppling3550]

Have you ever had the Wonderland 222 all in one? I am comparing that to the cousin and on the fence.

[@JuliesPlans]

I have but it never sparked my interest :)

[@postalplanner]

I picked up ‘Another night of falling star sparklers’ . Its the one with the animals on a tight rope. It’s my first hobo weeks. Now I want the Olive too. 🤦🏽‍♀️

[@JuliesPlans]

Omg that one is so cute!

[@zoeybea6984]

The original techo has 2 time tables as well they are on 2 pages instead of 1. I didnt know the day-free a6 only had 1, I wonder if the a5 also only has 1 🤔

[@JuliesPlans]

I have an original on the way as well:) can’t wait to check it out!

[@jillnelsonmalmt6085]

🥳

[@JuliesPlans]

❤️❤️❤️

[@justdessely2371]

Have you seen the new wonderland222 all in one unstacked? Like the cousin but completely neutral and a US company

[@JuliesPlans]

I’ve heard of it :)

[@CaliGurlGrown_VA_Raised]

URL?

[@ErinR0618]

Did you make the vision board? if so I need details!

[@JuliesPlans]

I did! I put it together on Canva and sized to fit then printed on vellum :)

[@kathleenstebbins3050]

I'm not going to lie I'm more than a little jealous. I actually ordered exactly at launch Tokyo time because I have a family member that lives there. And they might decide to send it between the 6th and 14th of September. 😮 Again, jealous. 🤓

[@JuliesPlans]

Our order said the 14th as well! Fingers crossed you get yours soon ❤️

[@Ch6rlotte]

Are the plastic covers durable enough to use on the planner?

[@JuliesPlans]

They sure are!

[@Craftyfan-ht2iz]

What do you think of the paper? Is it a big difference than the previous paper?

[@JuliesPlans]

I do t think there’s enough of a difference to really notice but I have a HUGE pen test video coming next week so we will see!

[@LeaverWild]

I’m surprised you didn’t try the Common Planner in these sizes…

[@JuliesPlans]

I pre ordered two different sizes and will review them when they arrive!

[@Gunmetalpuppy13]

( writing this before watching the whole video, so I don't know if you answer this...) but how is the new Tomoe River paper?

[@JuliesPlans]

I think it’s great! I tried the sample that came with the planners last year and I really liked it!

[@Gunmetalpuppy13]

​@JuliesPlans good to know! 😊😊😊 thanks

[@NYDriver74]

I’m confused. I want the English A6 Cousin but it says not on sale til 11/1. How did you get it?

[@Theresamonet]

It went on sale on Sept 1st. It’s now sold out, and you’ll have to wait until it restocks in Nov. Or you can try to find one still in stock with a US retailer.

[@amycampbell2264]

I’m confused, I thought the olive cover only came in a leather cover?

[@JuliesPlans]

Check the pinned comment ☺️

[@Jessica-xc6vn]

The olive cover is leather, right?

[@JuliesPlans]

Ooppps Meant to say Smooth. The Smooth ones don’t lay flat 😊

[@Jessica-xc6vn]

thanks! That would be a dealbreaker for me!@@JuliesPlans

[@gotica]

It's not tomoe.. Didn't they change the paper?

[@JuliesPlans]

It’s still tomoe, just a different version ☺️ it’s on their website

[@caelointheclouds]

Use google translate! They have written such lovely things, words of wisdom.

[@JuliesPlans]

Genius!!! Thank you for sharing!

[@lilyandrose8557]

Just let Google Lens translate any language you need to

[@Rime_Di_Michelangelo]

I love people trying to explain/show the size difference between A5 and A6. 😂 A6 is half of A5 simple as that

[@JuliesPlans]

Maybe for some people it’s not quite as simple and visuals help ☺️ like if you don’t even own either size, it’s not as simple as that.

[@bookearts-ye4me]

mine is arriving today 🫣 i’m so excited !!!!

[@JuliesPlans]

Yay!
