- Hobonichi 5 Year A6 Techo | Almost 3 Years Later! It's holding THREE years of photos! I noticed I kept saying, "... two years..." I am always hesitant to share my 5YR since he exploded from his binding, but if I had to do it all over again, I'd probably do it the same way. I just might line up the photos in a different fashion.
Since my 5YR Techo won't fit into its Hobonichi leather cover, I share how I'm using it thanks to Two Mice on my Bookshelf. Here's her channel: / @twomiceonmybookshelf
Thank you for watching this video and, if you enjoyed this video, like and subscribe! If you didn't, give it a thumbs down. I'm never sure what to film.
I started a second channel, if you're interested in houseplants and gardening: / @blueovalgalsthisandthat
And follow me on Instagram! I take nice pictures!! :D / blueovalgal
Wow. That 5-year is sturdy!
The fact that it is still together outside the binding is impressive.
Hi, yes, it’s very impressive!! Thank you for watching the video and commenting! :)
I am impressed with your 5 year techo! It’s amazing that you’ve kept it up for these years :) After you finish it it might be interesting to look into rebinding it!
Thanks! Someone in the FB Hobonichi group mentioned the same thing (to rebinding). I will definitely look into it in two years... :D Thanks for watching the video! I do appreciate it! :)
I am thinking to buy 5 year Techo first time so looking for reviews. And found you. I love this video-I've been watching it on repeat! I love the way you use the cover. The positive and lovely energy that comes through from your video brightens my morning. Thanks for sharing
@InteriorLookbook Thank you so much for your kind words! I never got around to making some kind of cover for it. I would highly recommend a 5YR though I wouldn't suggest trying to fill it with photos every day. :)
@@bluovalgal I know why you wouldn’t. BTW, have you temped to switch to A5? I am torn between A5 and A6, so your opinion will be appreciated
@@InteriorLookbook Yes, I have the A5 2023-2027. I bought it with the intent to doodle/draw every day. Depending on how you’re going to use it and the larger size doesn’t bother you too much, I would recommend the A5 Cousin size. The writing space in the A6 is less than 1” tall while the writing space in the A5 is less than 1 1/2” tall, if that makes sense.
@@bluovalgal Thanks a lot for your input
@@InteriorLookbook Good luck! :)
That’s so cool to see one so full looking!! That’s my favorite thing about hobonichi
Yes, he's very full! LOL It's really going to be interesting to see the 5YR completely filled (with photos) in two years... :) Thank you for watching the video and Happy New Year!
I want to thank you for proving how sturdy and well made the hobonichi 5yr is. I am strongly considering getting one as a 10yr (using the opposite page for the extra years) and the fact it can hold up to your stress test proves to me it would survive as a 10yr, even if the edges will probably become a little ragged.
@ciannacolean5125 You're so welcome! If you add nothing to any of the pages, I think the edge of the pages will not become ragged, if you're "careful" with it. I think using it as a 10yr is a great idea! I just wish the A6 and Cousin covers would fit the 5YR. Thank you for watching the video and commenting. Happy Holidays!
Thank you for sharing! 2022 will be my first year using a 5 year Hobonichi.
You will love using it!! Don’t stress too much, if you miss a day or two. I’ve basically stopped using the left side of the page and can fondly look back on the photos on the right side. Thanks for watching and commenting on the video! Happy Holidays!
Loved it! Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful Hobonichi filled with very dear memories. Made my day!
Thank you so much for your kind words!! 🥰 Have a wonderful evening!
what you did your hobonichi is like my worst nightmare lol. Not that I disagree i think you've got some lovely memories.
Yes, it was my worst nightmare, too. I can't remember if I said it in the video, but I don't know why it didn't occur to me when I first started to do it that it would bulk up like crazy. NEVER occurred to me until a few weeks in that the 5YR was in trouble.
It's so cool! Like a 5-year treasure
Yes, that's what I wanted! Are you using a 5YR, too? Thank you so much for watching! I appreciate it. :)
@@bluovalgal I'm thinking of trying the 5YR this time (in addition to an A5, I actually took a break from Hobonichi for 2020 and am ready for it in 2021) but I'm afraid of commitment LOL
@@polyglotg LOL I get it! There's a 5YR FB group, if you need ideas. As I said in my video, I didn't keep up with my highlights of the day (on the left side of page), but I did try to keep up with the photos on the right side. If you keep up in your A5, you could always go back in your A5 to fill in your 5YR, depending on how you decide to do it. :)
Wow that is awesome! I have the a5 5-year I use for noting something about my day, 2020 is year two. I just got the a6 5-year journal to start logging my daily bible verses. I’ve been doing it in an a6 techo and thought the 5-year would be a better place. Won’t be putting any photos in it. Am wondering if you think with only writing it would fit in the leather cover the entire 5 years? Thank for sharing.
Hi, yes, the A6 5YR would fit into the 5YR leather cover, if all you do is write in it! When I first bought my 5YR almost three years ago, the 5YR Techo did fit into its original cover without any problems. So you should be fine. :) Thank you for watching the video! I do appreciate it!
Woooowwww. Love it!
@mysummertouch, thank you! 😃
So cool! Thank you for sharing!!!
Thanks! Thank you for watching the video and commenting! I do appreciate it! :)
I love this, thanks for sharing!🙂❤️ And I love your furbaby photos lol! I'm a fellow english bulldog "owner" (more like I'm a slave to one😂) and I love bulldogs so much! If you ever do something with your book I'd love to see an update of how you accommodate all the chunk! (That's the one reason why I haven't gotten a 5 year...I don't mind chunk but I also worry it will fall apart). 🙂
LOL Yes, our first bulldog, Angus, had me wrapped around her paw finger. She was definitely the queen of the house. Bruce isn't as demanding but really loveable. LOL Someone in the 5YR Hobo group told me to try to bind it. I might end up doing that. (Been watching quite a few ladies making their own December Daily (junk?) journals and it's been interesting to watch them make their own folder covers! Thank you so much for watching the video. I know the explosion of binding freaks out some (like me), but it's still holding together despite that! 😃
I'm sorry for the loss of your senior dog. 💜💜
Thank you. I still miss her a lot.
You can pull the top layer of the photo, that is what I do. So it is a lot thinner!
😮 Seriously??? LOL Thank you for that tip!! I will have to try it! Someone suggested I buy the attachment using sticker paper, but given how old the machine is, I didn't want to spend the money on it. So thank you!!
WHOA!!! That 5 Year Techo...!!! This particular techo format is the one I am struggling the most with. It is just so unnatural to my usual "process" 😕 I am honestly still at a bit of a loss with mine. As I mentioned in one of my videos, I found myself repeating entries from the A6 techo 😑 THAT LEATHER! 💜 Perfection! 💚 love it! 🧡 Now I want one 🙃 The pretty flowers and birds embroidered cover that mine came with ultimately was not of any use to me (I am selling it, if anyone in New Zealand is reading this!). My 5Y techo is currently "naked" and I am OK with it. The cover is made of that plastic (?) material so the edges are pretty sturdy and it does not really need a lot of protecting. I wish they do not have the 5Y techo written in front of this leather cover, so I can use it for the other ones. Midori Traveller's Company I think has some BEAUTIFUL leather covers in A6 and A5. Very similar to this, in that they are natural vegetable tanned (?) with no dye so that it can patina naturally to honey brown! Thank you so much for showing us yours!!
@Incognito I don't read Japanese either. Heh. But now that I know what it says it does bother me. Yes indeed. Amazingly elegant!!
For 2020, there hasn't been much written in there. Quite frankly, there's not much of 2020 I want to memorialize on my pages. So I am okay leaving those pages blank but writing down the weather and photo on the right side of page. Like Incognito wrote below, I can't read Japanese, either, and I kind of like how it looks. I can't wait to see what you choose for your 5YR. Thanks so much for watching the video and suggesting! :)
I'm actually making the repetition thhe point of my 5-year techo. So I do daily journaling on the daily portion of my cousin, and then at the end of the week/day or whatever, I do a condense version of what I wrote. I just want to be able to look back and have an at-a-glance look of what happened the previous year. I'd hate to have different info on diffrenent journals anyway. Nothing wrong with a little repetition. 💜💜
Hi, where did you purchase the leather cover?
@John Ortuno I purchased the leather cover at the same time I purchased the 5YR Techo. Not affiliated with Hobonichi but here's the link from their site: www.1101.com/store/techo/en/2022/pc/detail_cover/fb22_s_nume/ Thank you for watching the video!
@@bluovalgal awesome! Thank you very much. And by the way loved your detailed overview
@@JohnOrtuno Thank you for your nice comment!
Here I am back on your channel and video a year later 😅
LOL Did you pick up anything for 2022? I will have to check out your channel later!
@@bluovalgal I did but it won’t ship until end of month and I am having such a hard time editing my orders as usual which always manage to annoy me every year. Yet. There I was. Every bloody year.
@@TwoMiceOnMyBookshelf aaahhhhh!!! I think I edited an order once and never again for all things you’re going through!!! Fingers crossed it ships smoothly and without any issues!
Holy cow that is thick
LOL Yes, it is. If I buy another 5YR for next year, I'm not sure if I will do this again. LOL Thank you for watching the video!
So on a given time, you have multiple planners, the question is which one would you use the most? Also, if they came out with some really cool electronic journals, would you use an electronic one? LOL. LIKED 👍👍👍👍👍👍
The one I use daily is my A6 diary. It's okay if I don't keep up with the other journals because I'd be able to refer back to my A6 diary to fill those blank pages. LOL I don't think I'd use electronic journals... I don't use my cell or ipad calendar. You've seen my sticker and washi stash!! How would I be able to use all that up on an electronic journal?? LOL
omg :D
@katyirie Thanks? LOL Many are turned off by the mere size of it and others love it. LOL Thank you for watching the video and commenting!
