Thank you! I have really enjoyed the hobonichi cousin this year and am excited to see how my journey evolves with it into next year. Thank you for being here and for your thoughtful comments, they really made me smile!

Wow….thank you for talking about practices. I am really struggling with feeling overwhelmed and overstimulated by everything, even things that usually bring me joy. I am feeling the burnout. I’ve been looking for a way to shift my perspective. This was so helpful!!!! ❤️ I’m going to try this.

Once again, I'm in awe of your planner! I've gotten back to being consistent about certain parts of planning, but I'd love to be better overall. Oh, and the whole folding over the Hobonici - my mind is blown! I had no idea that it was made to fold over like that; I'm forever looking for something with just the right thickness to put under one side of my planner. Folding it will make using my planner so much more pleasant. Thank you for the tip!

You're welcome! I figured I'd share that because a few people had asked recently and it was one of those things I was hesitant to do, even after I was told it worked, because it seemed like it would break the book, but it doesn't! I am curious what people are doing with the new HONs next year because I don't know if those spines would work the same... (one of the reasons I didn't get one, although they're so cute).

I LOVE this idea of practices! This might make my life more “livable”. Definitely gonna do this. Subbed immediately ❤

The way I absolutely cackled when you said the Coffee Monster things are bald. I don't understand their appeal either. They're just white bald blobs. I don't even think they're cute they're so ugly to me 🙈

Ha! They have grown on me, and Helen is the sweetest which definitely increased the appeal for me, but I still don’t understand why they are bald 😂

My mind is BLOWN with the folding back of the book like that!! 🤯. I just got my first cousin. But it’s a HON. I wonder if it will still work??

@LindaLovesCreating

I was wondering this about the HON as well! That was one of the reasons I didn’t get one for 2024, I’m unsure if it would work and wanted to see what other people do.

What pen do you use in your hobonichi? I love how you have set up your perspectives

The Sarasa mark-on 0.5! It’s such a good pen, highly recommend. amzn.to/3HtzaeA

Hi, Love your video What pens do you use when writing in black

@LindaLovesCreating

4 ай бұрын

Thank you! Most of my writing is with a Sarasa mark-on 0.5. amzn.to/3HtzaeA. For the thicker brush lettering in black I use the Tombow fudenosuke hard tip. amzn.to/3SgG2zl

Do you use the Sarasa Mark on 0.5 on these pages? The black ink looks so vibrant. Do they smear?

@LindaLovesCreating

8 ай бұрын

Yes! It is the best pen I’ve found for these pages to be vibrant but not smear. It would smear a little if you ran your hand over it immediately, but it dries very quickly for tomoe river paper and being a gel pen. And I’m a lefty and have no issues using it!

Hi do you have any idea what the fabric is for the cover. It looks like a canvas but not being able to touch it is hard to identify it. Thanks for your help as able.

It is leather + canvas. There is more info in the online shop where I purchased it. They are sold out of the one I have, but they have it in another color here: www.baum-kuchen.net/products/a5-notebook-cover-night-walk

Sorry if you have this noted or said this somewhere but what do you use for the weather icons? They aren't stickers, are they?

@@nankhanna unfortunately it’s most likely sold out, I’ve had it for awhile and she tends to stock new stamps each month and not restock the ones that sell out. However, she does bring back favorites or create similar stamps. I’ll keep an eye out if she ever sells a similar one I’ll link in my instagram stories!

I just ordered my first hobonichi cousin and i dont understand the pencil boards yet.

Basically it’s used to prevent indentations from writing on the opposite pages. It also acts as a page marker for the current day.

@LindaLovesCreating

8 ай бұрын

I tend to put it about 3 pages behind where I’m writing. It gives you a firmer, but not too firm, surface to write on and helps prevent your pen from creating indentations. It’s also great if you paste stuff into your book because it smooths out the surface.
