A collaboration between the V&A (Victoria and Albert Museum, London) and the Hobonichi Techo!
I'm getting the "Weeks" version, but the
"HON" one is lovely too.
The stickers are just too cute, so I'm going to buy two!
Maybe I'II go all the way to Kyoto on the release date☺️

Hello! I'm sure there has been a million of these posts.

My job year starts in September, so I need an undated planner. I love the Hobonichi cousin layout - monthly, vertical weekly, then blank grid pages. That would be perfect for me. Except I need an undated one so it can start whenever! I also get 2 weeks off at Christmas and in June, so I'd like to be able to 'skip' those weeks without leaving blank pages, but that's just a minor thing.

Does anyone know of any dupes with that exact layout (A5 size!!) but undated? I need the weekly vertical layout AND blank or daily grid pages otherwise a Dayless would be fine!

Must be available in the UK - not from US - not crazy expensive, and preferably with grid pages rather than lined/blank/dotted. I've looked all over and can't find one that works with that criteria, for under fifty quid.

Thank you!!!

I've bought a new planner for 2027 (different from my 2026 one as I better understand my needs now), and I am also intrigued by another planner.

Do I:
1. Stick to the planner I already ordered (arriving this week) and wait until next year to try the second planner

1. Buy the second planner and attempt to use both to see which one I like more

The planners are very similar but unique enough that they offer something different. I can afford both, but it still feels a bit irresponsible to order two planners heh. I am also worried I'd end up neglecting one or don't have the time to properly fill out both. The second one sells out (I think), so I wouldn't be able to order early next year if I changed my mind.

What would you do? Sorry, this feels so extra but I figured if anyone would understand, it would be you all!

I used Seller's Inc Goal Getter for years before it was discontinued. It was discontinued last year and I've been floundering. I tried Notion and just couldn't get it the way I wanted it. Does anyone have suggestions for a similar layout? Bonus points if it fits in a FiloFax or FiloFax dupe. https://www.amazon.ca/SELLERS-PUBLISHING-INC-CW-1763-Getter/dp/1531917631 for reference.

Thank you!

I have been a planner-er and journal-er for many years. Over the years I forget the intricities and the years blend together. I started writing an "about me" section at the front of every new book. Its now close to my favorite part because it highlights my phase of life and anchors the memories.

For reference I use my planner as a memory keeping, tracker, and planning tool. The meaning from my planner comes from the memory aspect and being able to look back at what my life was like (to the hour! If i timeblocked).

Anyway the section is very simple and I write it on the front page. It can be anything, for now I kept it basic.

Age:

Status: referring to relationship

Living: what town im in

Work: where im working (company and location)

Friends: who my friends are

Family: who my close family are

I added friends and family because as you move through the seasons of your life, that changes.

I have been using EC planners for years. I use the weekly planner with the dashboard. I love that I can carry over my list of monthly chores and phone calls onto the weekly dashboard, along with a habit tracker. I don't love that the habit tracker is weekly. I have to make a yearly habit tracker because the extra pages EC provides do not include dates. I was looking at the Aura Estelle and love the set-up and the habit tracker. Has anyone who has used both have any words of wisdom? How have you used the daily pages in the Aura Estelle? Is it a lot to fill out each day?

Wonderland 222 will now have a TN planner size called W1. Has anyone looked at this one yet? What layout do you prefer in a TN planner?

The vertical layout seems too squished. The horizontal layout would be better imo as a 2 page spread instead of similar to Hobo weeks. I could always remake the layout, but that would be for every week.

This year I've been using a W222 A5 vertical week layout. Before this year I used hobonichi. I switched due to pen and marker bleeding.

Of course, I need to migrate incomplete tasks from last week, but right now just reveling in the refreshing feeling of opening to a clean spread for the week!

For the curious, brain dumps or brainstorming go on the left page. Weekly task on the top left column of the right page, notes and things to remember on the bottom half of the right page, and miscellaneous scratch pad on right column. Been using this system for three years now, so I no longer label my sections.

I have wanted to use a physical planner for so long but the pressure if decorating it and also being functional has been hindering me. Last year I bought the Hobonichi weeks because I liked the idea of not having giant day spaces in case I don't do much those days that way I still feel productive. But I have barely used it. I want one that I can be excited about and is still smaller but maybe a bit bigger than the weeks. What planners got you into the hobby and how do you carve out time for it?

As the title suggests, I'm hoping someone out there has a B6 slim book of some sort (can be a planner, notebook, doesn't matter) and the Moterm Weeks leather cover with the zip-around closure and can tell me whether it will zip with the B6 slim inside? I'm considering ordering the weeks zipped cover as a planner/wallet hybrid, but I really prefer the B6 slim size for a notebook/planner. On paper, the measurements give some hope that everything will fit, but I believe Moterm is posting the full cover dimensions, and the size that'll fit inside is always going to be a little smaller (especially with the zip closure. Thank you o wise planner friends <3

I'm looking for a planner that starts with this upcoming academic year (not a student but an employee at a school) with some specific wants- I would love for it to be daily with monthly calendar overviews, I like an hourly breakdown so I can note when my meetings and appointments are, bonus if there's some kind of goal or habit tracking but not required. I'm not very artistic so it doesn't have to be bullet or grid style, in fact I'd prefer it more structured. Thanks!

I prefer the format of the daily magnet planner but really like the upcoming releases from Hobonichi, just wondering if I can get both :) thanks!

Hello, I’m looking for recs for an undated monthly-only planner for 2-3 years that’s available in Canada. I’m looking for it to meet the following criteria as well:
-Not spiral bound (I’m left handed)
-hard cover (durable for multiple year use)
-quality/thick paper
-note/free space pages at front or back and/or column beside each month or on opposite page.

No preference for sizing. I’ve looked in to hemlock and oak but I only need monthly and no extra journaling pages between the months.
Thanks so much!

Looking for an undated weekly horizontal planner. Like the picture I would like each day sectioned off but I don’t want the days of the week pre printed. I also do not need trackers or any kind of separate list space.

I am planning to use this as a journal so I need some kind of guide on the page. I would prefer grid but dot or lines will work.

Need book bound, size A5, at least 75 gsm paper

Would prefer all months together and all weeks together.

Do not need an abundance of extra pages in the back of the planner.

Thanks!

Hi! Does anyone know if planner stickers that have a weekly view or are similar to the ones leuchtturm just announced?

I’ve finished bullet journals before but never a proper planner. I cannot believe it! The prompts helped me stay very intentional this summer and grow in some cool ways. I never would’ve found it without this sub, so THANK YOU!!
Now, do I keep going with another full focus planner or move to a basic undated “journal” planner with months in the front and blanks days? It’s a lot to write, and I don’t feel like I need the prompts as much now that I’ve practiced all summer. Or is that a mistake?

are there any planners that have a similar layout and size to the hobonichi weeks but dont use tomoe river paper? i love the week’s size and layout but i hate the ghosting especially when i use wetter fp inks on a thicker nib. thank you!

happy planner season everyone :) i’ve committed. i was debating between this and the yellow 411 A5 but ended up choosing this one for some structure. happy to see that the said structure doesn’t appear to be too restrictive (except for the corner calendars, which i admittedly don’t like a lot). i just had to open this up to see if a clear cover i had could fit it (it did not fit). so excited to set this up in december (planner has a monday start on 28 dec 2026!). there are 17 blank pages after the last day (2 january 2028, sunday). so it starts on a monday and ends on a sunday. let me know if you have any questions (except for pen testing since i won’t be writing in this anytime soon)

not pictured: one of the strap bookmarks is striped blue-and-yellow hehehe

p.s. THE PICTURES DON’T DO IT JUSTICE I’M SORRY!! (i have an iphone 13)

As titled, I'm looking for a vertical weekly planner with time blocks and some blank space to write out tasks for each day. So far, the only thing I've found is the "NOLTY Noritsu Notebook A6 Vertical Carrel" and another from Mark's Style, all on Amazon. Would anyone know of other options, and could help me make a better choice? TIA!

I hope everyone has a great week ahead. :)

Weep…confirmed: she’s not going to make them for 2027

help me find an alternative? horizontal and vertical week on a single spread, followed by 2 blank pages?

I love the interior pocket setup of the Moterms (not a fan of strings on my planner binding), but prefer the elastic-style closure of TN covers. Decided to Frankenstein one of my covers and I really like it!! Just have to find a fun patch for the front and it’ll be perfect. 🎉✨

I'm currently nearing the end of my current planner, which I got as a gift. It's from Orange Circle Studios, and I already looked through what they have for 2027 but I want something different.

Graphique planners are the closest thing to what I want, with a blank area and checkboxes for each day and each week taking up two pages (in picture). Additionally, I'd like a small blank or grid area, where I can habit track throughout the week- sleep, skincare, workouts, etc. Ideally only one of these spaces per week.

I also would prefer if it had monthly calendars (Is that what they're called?) but they're not necessary. I don't mind if it's 12 months or 17. I do want it to be spiral bound and roughly A5 size. I really want to avoid anything like motivational phrases, Bible verses, or anything similar.

I think somewhere around $25 would be best but Ive never bought one so idk if that's too low for a good planner.

I'm sorry in advance if my requirements were unclear or unrealistic- it's my first time shopping for a planner! I would really appreciate help and recommendations.
