✨ Hobonichi 2026: talking myself out of buying everything (again) | cozy planner chat

Hi friends!
The Hobonichi 2026 previews are here, and once again I’m sorting through my first reactions so I don’t end up trying to add everything I like into my cart. In this video, we’re catching up on some thoughts about my Traveler’s Notebook and how I’ve been using it for my memory keeping.

I did a video like this last year, and found it helpful to narrow things down in advance, so that I didn’t end up “accidentally” adding things to my cart when I made my purchase.

✨ A note: I know not everyone enjoys planner line-up chatter, especially when it can feel overwhelming at this time of the year. Please know my intention here isn’t to encourage buying more, but to share my own process of reflecting, simplifying, and being mindful about what I add to my collection. If this isn’t your kind of video, no worries at all. I hope to see you in the next one!

I’d love to know - what do you think of my selection? Which Weeks would you choose between the two that I narrowed down? And what are your thoughts so far for 2026??? :)
