    Hello Helen! I loved this setup! For the plastic cover ( or any cover) with the Hobonichi binding you can flip the cardboard covers all the way, both at the same time then when they together you can easily get the plastic cover on both sides at the same time, and slowly turn them back to place, this way you don't need to bend the cardboard cover at any point. and your book will be intact, by this method you can easily leave the vellum without glue tape and change things often, because you can remove and put it back the plastic cover as many times you want :) My English is terrible but I hope it helps someone.

      I was going to leave the same comment so I was happy to see other people already have mentioned this! 👍 Somehow I managed to figure this out last year when putting my cover on my 2021 Cousin, it was scary at first to bend back it back that much but it was totally fine, the spine is so well made it doesn't hurt it at all!

    This is so awesome Helen 💓
    The Midori clear cover you purchased is the A5 1 Day 1 Page Codex clear cover, which is different from their normal A5 clear cover. Anyone wanting to buy this particular cover like Helen's please find the cover that is labelled "Codex"! The Codex cover is great if your Cousin is going to expand over the year.

    • @starbucksmocha88
      @starbucksmocha88 3 роки тому +1

      Thanks for sharing this info! I got just the regular A5 one and it does fit (tightly!) but it'd be cool to have it be a bit more roomy so I can put more things in there and not worry it'll get too big 😂

  • @CharlotteBarrettYT
    @CharlotteBarrettYT 3 роки тому +5

    Love the setup! Im so excited to start my new one! Pro tip for putting on those covers so you don't have to bend the hobonichi - open the journal holding on to all of the pages except for the cover pages and let the cover pages go backwards. It'll easily slide into the cover slots that way without bending any pages. Hope that makes sense haha

    i love the cover that hobonichi sells to go with the planner, so many useful pockets, so protective, and totally worth the price imo. plus you can get the clear plastic cover-on-cover that provides even more protection (and i put the cute little poster that came with mine in between the fabric cover and the plastic one)

    Thank you for doing this and providing a tutorial on doing the sizing and printing, especially for those of us that have challenges like myself. I think we will have similar set-ups in our hobonichi cousin this year, I had decided early on when I bought my new 2022 planner it was going to be all TCMC this year!!! Also wondering if you would consider creating/designing items for the other side of the year at a glance page for the 2023 and 2024 calendars, as well as do something for the following monthly pages in the hobonichi cousin as well? I would love it so much!! I am going to have a hard time figuring out what color tabs to use. I love all of yours so much! Thank you for all you do Helen, now catch up on some sleep girl. ((Hugs)) xoxo

    • @starbucksmocha88
      @starbucksmocha88 3 роки тому

      Yes!! I would LOVE to see some TCMC designs for the right hand side calendar page as well as the monthly calendar pages in the Hobonichi. (For this year I got myself Virgo & Paper kits. Ashton makes some great kits for monthly and weekly in the Hobonichi planners, thought I'd mention just in case you didn't know of her shop) but yeah I'd love a TCMC kit for the monthly section with a bottom washi sticker like the vertical kits have. (I've been cutting the one from the vertical kit down so it can fit 😂)

    @bloom6081 3 роки тому +44

    This is going to sound horrifying, but the easiest way to put a cover on a Hobonichi is to open the front and back covers as far as they can phyisically go, and then slide both sides into the Midori at more or less the same time. I've done it with multiple Hobonichi planners and notebooks, and it never causes any issue, because they do such a good job at building that spine.

    • @starbucksmocha88
      @starbucksmocha88 3 роки тому +2

      Yes exactly!!! I was scared to do it at first but it's the best way to put on the cover and I've never had an issue with it either. It's awesome that it works on all the Hobonichi planners, I did this to put the clear cover on my Weeks too 👍

      (just in case you don't already know this) pro tip : bend back the back & front covers of your Hobonichi at the same time - don't worry it won't hurt the spine - and slide both sides in to the clear cover at the same time, so you don't have to bend your Hobonichi to get it in the cover.
