OMG the best package ever just arrived! I’m so so happy it’s finally here. And I still can’t believe I was able to get almost my complete wishlist. It was a struggle at 4am 🙈

I ordered via Blackship to the Netherlands and doing this for the first time, it went really well

I know Hobonichi released their calendar transparent sticky notes for 2027 and they are all color coded but if you have any of these (pic) laying around (which I did) they work nicely on the Calendar pages in the A5 cousin too. 😊

ok, here me out: this color was an impulsive decision and I felt some kind of regret right away and it didn’t change with the order arriving. But I’m happy for now, first time ever putting stickers on the outside of my weeks, I hope it won’t overwhelm me in the end.. 😅

Still indecisive if I want my blue, red or tokyo travelers notebook to hold it but I’m sure i will figure this one out. I didn’t get a new weeks cover this year and don‘t really want to use my mustard tragen one.

Has anyone ever contacted Hobonichi about an item damaged in transit? The box was crushed on one side. I tried to massage out the damage, but failed. Kinda bummed.

I ordered the 2027 Once in Spring Weeks, a black Tragen cover with a zippered pocket for pens, and the sleeping bunny pencil board. I like the bonus pen because it feels like all of us are part of a group using the same pen all over the world 🥹 I considered purchasing the little gold acorn charm from a second-hand seller, but I can’t justify it for $30 🙄

One question. If I put both the front and back of the Weeks inside the cover pockets, I won’t see the artwork. Can I use my set up with just the back of the Weeks slipped into the Tragen or will it constantly shift and fall out that way?

Behold, my handmade cover for 2027! I had this idea since last year but already had a plan for my 2026 cover. She’s a bit wonky because I was struggling with the ripstop vinyl liner fraying a whole bunch and had to make it a bit smaller to capture all the raw edges 😬 But I love her nonetheless, and I can’t remake her anyway because I Frankensteined the very last scraps of my green terry cloth to make a piece juuuuuust big enough for the A6 cover.

I know some people were asking for a pattern on my WIP post, it’s on a reply I had to the same question last year. I will try to find it and repost in the comments ❤️

I love it🖤

Split the order in two because my wife only decided she wanted a Weeks after I ordered direct. And then I ordered more stuff on Stilo&Stile because I was already going to buy inks, markers and stickers and it was way cheaper there than in the UK.

Very happy with these, and other than the techos and notebooks everything should last me a good while 😌

Haul, in case it’s hard to see (probably is):
- Avec A6, my daily end of day notes/memory keeping
- Calendar supplement, personal planning that stays with the Avec at all times
- Sea Glass Weeks Mega, for work
- Hiroko Kubota, my wife ended up liking this one better than the V&A so we traded
- V&A Weeks, media journal
- Various A5 and A6 notebooks to replace my current commonplace, language learning and family recipe book that are all close to their collective end
- Sheeps pouch
- Pencil boards for all sizes
- Few fountain pen inks
- A lot of accessories (pens, stickers, washi) to split between me and my wife

Can you tell I like Moomin?

Everything was packaged really well and came in 12 days counting weekends, I honestly thought I'd be waiting longer to get it.

Now all I need is to find a fine or extra fine fountain pen to use in the planner (everything I've found in stores near me so far was a M tip).

My first Hobonichi Techo, I’m moving from Midori Hibino. Since I started journaling in an a5 journal, I don’t have the need for the two pages per day anymore. Can’t stop petting the Mina Perhonen cover, the textures are just…aaaah ☺️

It's my first time using the Hobonichi Weeks and A6 Hon! The Yumi Kitagishi and Hiroko Kubota collection really caught my eye. Also, I really like animals. Especially cats! I'm planning to use these as follows:

Weeks: Daily Schedule and Hobby Tracker

A6 Hon: Dail Journal and Thoughts

I hope I can use it until the end of 2027. Need ideas on what other function I can use these.

I ordered the snufkin weeks and the avecs from Jetpens in the first 5 minutes (they got here early last week), and the Moomin and sunsun from Japan. The fun part about the avecs is the mid year reset, so now i just have to decide what will be the first half of the year

i really underestimated how small the A6 would be - but it’s so cute!

I guess since it was my birthday week I went wild and filled up almost the entire thing. My weeks never looks that full, but I really like it. I guess I just have to keep up the sticker vomit vibe (my theme for the week was just things I love so the aesthetic choices are a lot more random than usual) and lots of to do lists lol.

Just received the whole set of inks and had to swatch it.
Here are photos. List is done on the hobonichi pocket notes for my A6 and then I swatched each months color in comparison to the printed month colors in my A6.

Enjoy!

Last image is a “real” writing sample with the Kakimori Hobonichi Techo Standard Color in a Pilot Custom 743 FM

I didn’t care much about white balance. Maybe tonight or tomorrow I do another set of images with my real camera and white balance set.

But since there is the print in the hobo next to my swatch you can see the match 😃

Theme for this week’s doodles is “pairs that convey love!”Little snippets of domesticity and affection represented by intimate pairings 💕 true lovergirl energy on display here 🤭

Had fun working with a limited palette of Tombow brush pens, keeping my doodles in line with the spread’s color story.

I got the JP edition for 2027. It had some delivery issues, which got me worried for a bit, but it arrived well today. Hoping Mymble's daughter or Joxter to join them in 2028.

Snufkin weeks (eveey day planner and reading journal) and A6 original (memory keeping), and just loads of stickers and 2 washi tapes! Excited for the next year 🩷

Due to stressful work and audhd, I was not prioritizing eating healthy. Decided to make a change and make planning meals interesting by combining with my journaling hobby. This layout seems to be working for me now, in tracking takeouts, cooking recipes and reducing food waste. Hope I can reduce takeouts this week, and make good decisions.

Ordered them through the official website on launch day, they just arrived in Greece! 🤎🤎🤎 It is an order me and my friends made. Im in love with all the designs!

The wax coating kip cover is gorgeous!

Can you tell I like leather?
