Welcome!
I can't deny that this channel was a product of COVID. I've been left a lot of time at home with nothing to do but watch UA-cam videos. After watching a lot of videos, it's given me the false sense of confidence that I can do it too. Haha. Not really. However, since I love watching other peoples’ videos, I thought I would make videos of mine as well. I expect this channel will just be a “what’s hot” right now on my mind type of channel. My interest vary often so by documenting some of my numerous hobbies.. I hope someone else can benefit from my experiences.. whether they be successes or failures.
Fun fact: this channel is a product of “what’s hot” on my mind and one of my hobbies. Hopefully I can keep up with it. But judging by my track record.. I wouldn’t hold your breath. :D

After filming this video, I saw on Sterling Ink's Instagram page a video explaining the change in paper for the stickers. She said that she started to outsource some of the printing for her stickers which is why they were able to put foil on the transparent matte stickers. AND I was right.. she called it washi sticker paper. Haha. If you want to hear her talk about it, check out her Instagram p...

Hobonichi A6 Monthly Plan with Me (Jan 2021)
Thank you so much for sharing! I was wondering about this pen!
So, here, so there, so.. so and soo. .. are you talking to a horse or what !?
I got the ink creep as well in my kaweco sport 😤 no matter how hard I wipe it off more ink comes out
Bonjour je recherche des idees pour ranger mes stickers mais je suis nul en anglais et je voudrais savoir comment vous avez cree votre Petit carnet rose les stickers tiennent sur quoi c'est exactement ce que je voudrais faire les colles par thème et pouvoir les redécoller quand j'en est besoin merci beaucoup pour votre partage c'est very good 👍🙏👌😘😘😘
Are the refills on these Kaco similar to Pilot G2 style refills??? Can these refills be used in signo/pentel energel/pilot G2, etc??? And is it waterproof???
I have I think 15 fountain pens now and some are worse than others as far as nib creep goes. My Pilot Metropolitan has the worst nib creep on it. I have other pens with that issue but I assure you it's pretty normal. Love the review, I'm thinking of buying this pen since it's pretty and its nicer loooking than the Compass and cheaper than the Pro Gear Slim, both of which I have. The line on your page being thicker might be due to the paper you're using. I have a sailor in Fine and one in Medium Fine and I can't really tell the difference but yours looks significantly thicker than mine does. It looks more like a medium or broad maybe, so I'd try new paper.
R they waterproof?? Or atleast hold up to a good amount to water?!?
I think this one would be perfect as my work planner 😍
I have also started dappling in fountain pens... also inspired by my hobonichi this year lol. I got the Muji fountain pen, it looks like a regular pen, its really no frills, but it has a really nice fine tip and is really affordable at like 16-23 dollars depending where you shop. I have been looking at sailors, but this it the one that would be in my price point and like you said there are not many videos. I like the point of view of your review, it really does show my use case perfectly...and I don't think I will be purchasing this one. Thanks again, and happy planning!
Hello! I am Sherri Green. I have been trying my hand at Planner/journal planner design on KDP on Amazon. I designed 3 planners. I would like you to review the planners. Can you do that in the next month if I send a copy of each planner? Please let me know if this is possible and where to ship the planners? I really look forward to your insight?--Sherri B. Green
Didn't your TAN planner come with a clear cover? I saw others have one.
No mine did not. It was for sale on the website but I didn’t purchase one.
That costs extra
It is tomoe river paper. It may be 68gsm vs Hobonichi 52gsm
Is this a dull pink color or is it just the camera?
It's not a bright pink. I would say it's a baby pink color with gold shimmer.
@@mjshobbies Thank you. It looks different in videos and photos so i couldn't figure out how the color might actually look like in real life.
I got the same one but hasn’t arrived yet. Also having issues with filling the dailies but I ordered a kin or A6 avec to try for work as today I have the hobo cousin for all and it just too much for work to do’s… so confused because I also got a weeks hahah. Interested to see what you will end up doing and please share your layouts for inspiration!
I’m right there with you. Trying to decide planner lineup for the following year is the most exhilarating yet confusing times. 😂
Thanks for the review - the Procolor/Shikiori line is a great way to test out Sailors without jumping straight into gold nib territory. The Vanishing Point is made of brass, hence the weightier feel. I also find I get a lot of variation in line width on the VP EF nib depending on my writing angle. In my experience, Japanese nibs tend to be ground to suit a more vertical style of pen hold.
Thanks for all the knowledge! I’m inching my way towards gold nibs.
Are they refillable?
i haven't found refills, but you can open them up
Others have said yes but I've never tried.
That's their pro color line, which always has some form of four seasons.
Thanks for letting me know. I love their four seasons line.
They copy lamy colours.
they come with an extra refill too?
I have one Sailor Pro Gear, Every Rose Has Its Thorn, and am looking to buy another. This was very good review of yours. Thank you.
oooh. That's a pretty one you have. Thanks for watching!
Hello. Congratulations for your video. I write from Spain. I have a Sailor Shikiori Shimoyo and I am very happy with it. I have a question: which of your two fountain pens do you like better? I had doubts between Shikiori/Capless (Vanishing point). Thanks in advance.
Tough one.. I like them both honestly and I use both frequently. But if I had to only pick one then I would say I like the Pilot Vanishing Point EF more.. purely for the convenience of not having to constantly twist the cap on and off.
If youre looking for a REAL extra fine nib with about the same weight from Japan, idk what your budget is but the Platinum 3776 comes with a Ultra Extra Fine for ~$160 or so. I used to have one, loved it but im saving up for the same nib in a more expensive version that caught my eye. God bless!
Thanks for the rec! I'll have to research that one.
Love this video. So many great ideas. On how to organize stickers. May I ask where you purchased the 2 sleeve pocket sticker organizer?. I saw the quarter sleeve on amazon. Great video
Thanks!! I got the 2 sleeve pockets from amazon as well. It's from he same company as the quarter sleeves. www.amazon.com/20-Twenty-Pages-2-Pocket-Postcards/dp/B003AOK3O6/ref=sr_1_7?crid=14PA2GAQSIY92&keywords=bcw+photo+sleeves&qid=1648703714&sprefix=bcw+photo+sleeves%2Caps%2C120&sr=8-7
Amazing video! Thank you, so helpful for me!
Glad it was helpful!
Can I get these pens in the stationary shop..I am from india
Also what is the cost of 1 box??
Good question. I'm not sure where in India you would be able to get it. I got mine from amazon. They cost around $5-7 per box here in the US. Hope you can find them in India!
Great review! I also love my Muji pens. I only have black though. The Kaco colors are listed on Amazon.
Yes I love my Muji pens as well. Haha. Thanks, I'm just lazy. :P
Is that a Simply Gilded padfolio? I had no idea a Hobonichi would fit in one. I wish they had one that would fit an A6 too
Yes it is!! It's a little big for the A5 but it still works.
Hi I love your organization and so inspired! I'm trying to figure out (but failing) what the name of the foiled sticker shop at 5:40 is? Its the sticker on the right page in the lower left hand corner.
Oh you're too kind! I'm glad my obsession can be your inspiration. :) Those stickers are from papermusecrafts.com. I love her stickers but I don't think she makes those anymore.
I was looking to buy these, wasn’t sure which box to go for, your video helped. Thank you. In the green box the colour you gave the name rose is actually looks like a Burgundy to me.
Haha. I agree.. looks more Burgundy.
I detest the people that buy multiples of those cover on covers and causes them to sell out on the website and then try to resell for $30 or more. It’s disgusting. Not saying you’re doing this but ive been trying to get one and the resellers are horrible for taking advantage especially at this time.
I understand the frustration. I was waiting for these to be restocked too. I like to make big purchases because the shipping from Japan is horrendous. I can't do it often. Just once a year. Hope you get your hands on one! They're a beaut.
@@mjshobbies yes exactly! I was waiting for the Animal Crossing restock to happen to make my whole purchase since I was buying multiple things and didn’t want to pay double the shipping and so of course when I went to make my order when they restocked these were sold out. 😞 I am hoping they restock for Spring this and another cover I really wanted that sold out.
The little spoons don't come with the Weeks or Day Free planners, sadly. The extra tabs are for the sneaker Weeks specifically, because they don't come with the ribbon bookmarks.
Oooh. That explains a lot! Thanks for letting me know! Even though I have absolutely no use for them. haha
Hi thanks for sharing, the sticky tabs come with the mega, I assume so you can separate all those extra pages better and the little spoon comes with books you did not get. Thanks why it's not in your box. Looking forward to seeing how you set them up :)
Ahh. That makes sense. Thanks for letting me know.
Thanks for sharing your monthly setup. I like how you made everything work even thought they weren’t made for the A6!
Thanks!! You gotta do what you gotta do right? :D
Thank you. Thank you. THANK YOU! I didn't even get 1/2 way thru I was on Amazon and Samantha Mae's etsy page ordering. I'm using a photo box now ans although it's organized.. I can't see them! And you're right, all of those free little samplers you get with orders or hard to organize so the sticker book will work. Thank you for making this video. My OCD is not flaring up anymore. 🙃🧡
Haha. I’m glad you found it useful!! Let me know how it works out for you!
This is the first video of yours I have watched and I'm excited to see more! I found it so helpful especially the reusable folder, I'm a massive penpaller and I've just been storing all my stickers in mismatched envelopes in a cardboard box under my bed. you've motivated me to get organized.
Thank you! I’m glad it was helpful.
i want all of them ...
Not to be an enabler.. but get them!! :D
Are they refillable?
Yes
Yes
Great way to organize! This will definitely save me time and headaches lol, thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
I would much prefer you share your method for actual monthly planning than just choosing stickers.
My name is Halima and I am a gel pen addict
I think it’s safe to say anyone watching this video is a pen addict. :D
u could have shown the nib for us to be specific as to we should buy or not
I love this transparent paper, do you have a link for get it, maybe amazon? Thank u so much <3
Sorry for the late reply! I got them from sheetlabels.com. They have a wide variety of labels and papers. They ship out samples for free so you can choose 3 different kinds of paper to try out before you buy!
What type of pen are you using? does it smudge easy?
Sorry for the late reply! I use the unibazl jetstream ballpoint pen for the Hobonichi. It doesn't smudge.
I love this idea of printing pictures on transparent sticker paper. Thanks for sharing.
Yaaasss! Life changer!
@@mjshobbies Do you have a link for this paper? Or a name? Get it from Amazon?
