I'm glad I'm not the only one who looks at their partially used Midori pocket diary and finds it so adorable that it's hard not to go back. I was glad to discover those mini monthly ones. Next year I can put on in my passport TN. I just don't need boxes to write in every day in my weekly one, but perhaps I can make it into a gratitude log for the sake of using the paper for something. I'm impressed by how many uses you've found for different notebooks!
I have looked at those Midori pocket diaries for years already before I purchased my first one. They are so cute! If I start thinking now, I may come up with a use case for one for next year 😅 I have been wondering if I could replace one Hobonichi Weeks with the Midori Weekly... May need to try that to get some cuteness into my lineup also for next year 😊 Thank you so much for commenting 😊 P.S. What design do you have? The clover is my favorite, last year I had the birds and the dog one I keep eyeing every year 😍
@@Katiplans I have had the bird one this year and last because I have pet budgies. The clover is my second favourite. The dog and cat ones have such cute illustrations too though.
If you buy the mini and put it in a passport cover, the pen loop is also a great bonus. I enjoyed using it in my passport TN. And now I need to stop talking myself into buying one for next year too 😅
I am so impressed that you were able to make a video of all these planners/journals! Brava! I have way too many occasional/random/pending things that it hurts my head to take inventory… but I must do it! Yet I still want new covers or notebooks LOL the struggle is real! There’s just so much cool and cute stuff out there!
Thank you 😊 I can admit that I didn't enjoy stacking my books in one place - it was a bit too much to be honest. But now it's done, and I don't have to do it for another six months 😅 But I do like making these - having the history. And it can be eyeopening to see everything at once 🤣 And yes - more is more 👍🏼🫣😂 P.S. Now I can focus on dreading the promised cover collection video - that will be tough too 😅
@@Katiplans I really don’t think it’s too much because you are using each for a purpose - there weren’t many pending at all! But I guess then you can share your cover collection and it might seem more… but that’s another thing… because we can have multiple covers for one purpose if you just prefer to change colors for seasons etc.
I have never been good at changing my covers for seasons. I see others do that, and it seems like a great idea to get some variety and change. But usually I stick to one cover because it helps my brain to know what's inside. And sometimes when I try to change covers, I reach for the wrong books and things stop working. I also would like to have all covers in use... But if you are happy in one certain size I can understand wanting to change up covers sometimes. I would like to be able to do that... On the other hand - I like the idea of one perfect cover too... But I also like change, so in that way the cover change could help in sticking to the same system. Do you change covers for seasons?
@@Katiplans Yes, I see others do it and I can understand - like changing clothing, styles etc. But I mostly use certain covers for specific purposes. It might change over time, but generally, I want them all to be in use, rather than swapping around... but I'm just swimming in supplies right now and I think it has more to do with other things going on in life and it's like my stationery situation is a reflection of my life situtation!
I hope everything is okay, or at least will be okay again soon 😘 I don't know if swimming in supplies is good or not, but I assume it's not your preferred situation 🥹
I love the entire collection, but especially your daily little burgundy one. Is that a gillio, and what size is it? Thank you, I giggled the whole way through because I have so many books as well,😅
Thank you so much for commenting, I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the video 😊 Yes, sorry about the daily planner. I forgot to mention what it is, because I have been talking about it so much lately 😅 I did an unboxing and a flip about it before this video. It's a Moterm pocket Luxe 2.0 VegTan cover, but I have changed the 30mm rings which it comes with to 19mm rings. The color is plum (which seems sadly to be sold out now). If you want to see my anxiety about getting it, watch the unboxing video 😅 czcams.com/video/wprcQZmpbUw/video.html It's my first vegtan Moterm and I had my doubts about getting it... but now I love it 😊
I’m using an A5 half year Stalogy for my reference book. That may be a good use for the one you have. With all the pages, you can easily make sections for different reference categories like quotes, keys, etc.
That's a good suggestion. I just don't understand the concept of a reference notebook 😅 I have watched some flips but it just hasn't opened to me how I would benefit from it. I need to keep thinking about it... Thank you for commenting 😊
@@Katiplans For me, it helps me remember things that either dont change or don’t change often but are always relevant to my life. For example, I’ve got a page dedicated to all of the books I own. It helps keep me from buying duplicates.
Haha, I have tried to make a list like that but have failed. But it's a good idea. Thank you for your explanation of the reference book - I like that 👍🏼 I will keep thinking about it 😊
It's a Fjällraven Travel Wallet. I found it on a flea market and just had to buy it. I love the color. It doesn't come with elastics. I put those in myself. I have tried to find it online, but can only find the smaller versions, so I don't know if they have stopped making it 😔 The passport size version fits two passport sized inserts. I have shown that one here, if you are interested: czcams.com/video/cxUC9fUalwE/video.htmlsi=l3pQCoFZ_hFdUPD9&t=687 Thank you for commenting 🙏🏻
Yes, I cherish it very much and I couldn’t believe my luck. It was in excellent condition and still a bargain. Like tenth of the retail price! I just couldn’t leave it behind although I didn’t know what I could use it for 😅 But I was sure that at least Hobonichi Weeks would fit, and I was so glad to realize that regular inserts fit also 👍🏼 Thank you, I’m glad to hear you enjoyed the video 😊
So cool to see all the books and journals together and get a picture of how it all fits together. Thanks for sharing. 😊
Thank you for watching and commenting 😊
I really like your pocket rings…even though I am not a rings person. So cute.
Thank you 😊 I'm so glad that I finally realized to put all things that I like together in one cover 😅

Would love to see your vision book tn - I’m always interested in other uses rather than travel because I’m not traveling much now 😅
Luckily I haven't journaled yet from some travels pre 2020, so I have still some travel journaling to do 😂
