2022 Planner & Journal Lineup | Hobonichi Weeks, Traveler's Notebook, Personal Rings
Hi friends, welcome back to my channel. It's been a while since I uploaded a video, but I'm back and I'm here to show you my planner and journal lineup for 2022, and here they all are. And you might be seeing the stack and thinking, "Oh my gosh, this is a lot. What is going on?" And I will be explaining myself. So some of these notebooks, I did technically start last year. So keeping that in mind, I don't think it's that ridiculous, but I'll just go ahead and start with my lineup here. So just to explain how my lineup usually works, I always like to keep at least three daily notebooks. I have my daily planner, my daily written journal, and my baby journal. So let's talk about my daily planner first. I am using another Hobonichi Weeks again for 2022, and here it is. If you follow my Instagram, you've seen this setup already. I am using the Galen Leather zipper cover in the Crazy Horse Brown. It's a beautiful, gorgeous cover. It's so soft, it smells so good, and it marks up really nicely. It's already showing signs of use. I've been using this for two weeks now, maybe three weeks. And just to show you what the patina looks like, here is my slip-and-zip case, also in the Crazy Horse Brown. And I've had this for a year and a half now. I unboxed this on my channel before, so you can check that out if you'd like. But here is what the patina looks like. It is gorgeous. So here's what's inside. I did take the time to decorate my pockets here on the left side. I usually keep my pockets simple, but this time, I made the effort to really decorate these pockets and make it something that I love seeing every time I open up this cover, and I will be explaining more about these deco cards when I do a proper setup video for my planner. I do plan on filming that soon, but the short version is, I made these planner cards myself and then these are stickers that I bought on Amazon. I will link them down below, And then I am using the Zebra bLen pen for my planner.
So here is my Hobonichi Weeks. I'm not completely done setting up the inside yet. I do have this sticker pocket here in the front with my planner card here that I made last year. I covered the inner pages with some scrapbook paper just to match the outside cover, and I haven't cut off these bookmarks yet but I'm seriously considering it again this year. I cut it off from my Hobonichi Weeks last year, which I do have here. Here's my 2021 Hobonichi Weeks, the first one that I finished. I started this on March 2021, and I was kind of in and out of this planner throughout the whole year but I did end up using a lot of the pages. And overall, I think this was a success and I'm really happy to be in another Hobonichi Weeks for this year, but as I mentioned, I haven't finished setting up the pages yet. I fell behind on preparing my lineup for 2022 just because in December, if you were following my Instagram, you knew what I was up to. I was playing Endwalker because it came out on December 3rd and that was all I did for Decembe,r was play that game and also prepare for the holidays and all that. So my lineup kind of fell by the wayside, and I'm just now catching up in January. So if you feel like you're falling behind on your planner setups and you feel like you can't keep up with social media and all that, don't worry. I'm right there with you. It's totally normal. But I did go ahead and start bullet journaling like I said in my Hobonichi haul video back in September when I bought this Hobonichi Weeks. I said that my intention was to bullet journal in the back pages of this Mega. Did I mention that this is a Hobonichi Weeks Mega? Because it is. It's been a while since I filmed, can you tell? But anyway, so I already did start the January pages on this Mega. This is my blotting paper, by the way. I'm just gonna set it aside. So here is my monthly title page, and then my tracker page, and then I dedicated a page for weekly notes for when I want to do a little bit of forward planning for that specific month.
And then, I started rapid logging in the back and this is just the traditional bullet journal rapid logging, and I'm really glad that I went back to this method of planning because it felt really comfortable for me. When I first started consistently planning a couple of years ago, I started with a bullet journal and this was exactly how I would plan my day. I would just list out everything that I wanted to do that day and it's been working out great for me so far. So I'm really happy about that. And then for the weekly pages, I've been doing memory keeping. I really like using a weekly spread to do some creative journaling, so that's my plan for these weekly pages in the Hobonichi Weeks is to use this for creative memory journaling and in the back, it's going to be for bullet journaling. Again I'll be doing a more detailed flip of this entire setup, so watch out for that. Next up in my daily lineup is my daily written journal, and I'm currently using an A6 Tomoe River paper notebook. And I have it housed in a Moterm Cream Croc Original cover. So here's what the front cover of my notebook looks like. I bought this on Amazon sometime last year when news broke out that the Tomoe River paper, the old version was going away. And so much like the rest of the planner community, I kind of panicked and stocked up on the old type of Tomoe River paper. So this is one of the notebooks that I bought with the old version, and I have two of these notebooks so once I fill up this notebook, I'm most likely going to be using that one as well. And so far, I've just been using this for pure writing. As you can see, just a lot of writing with my fountain pens. I really like flipping through a notebook that's just full of words with no stickers, no decorations, no ephemera, or anything like that. It's like flipping through a novel and that just feels really good to me.
So that's my goal for this notebook, is to do lots of writing and journaling and I usually do with morning pages style. I usually do it in the evening, so it's more like evening pages, I guess. But anyways, three pages a day is what I try to aim for in this notebook, and it's been working out really well. So that is my daily journal. It's a lot of private and personal writing so obviously I can't flip through this, but there it is. I've been really enjoying the Tomoe River paper for journaling, and I love how these pages crinkle as you go through the notebook and you use each individual page. You can see clearly the pages that I've used and which ones I haven't, and it's just been super nice. And then the last of my daily notebooks is this. This is my baby journal, and for the setup, I have it in the Chic Sparrow Tea House Chamomile. This is the classic traveler's notebook, so there are no pockets. I bought this on clearance recently, and they no longer have the Deluxe. They only had the Classic left on the site, so that's what I went with, and it doesn't bother me because I am using a plastic sleeve for my baby journal that I stuck a sticker pocket on here, so if I want to add deco, I can just use this. And this year, I decided to change up my baby journal and I'm no longer using a Moleskine pocket weekly. So I did bring out my old baby journals here. So these were my past two baby journals. They're both Moleskine pocket weekly planners, and I did one-line-a-day journaling for my son, but I've started to feel like the line-a-day journaling isn't working out for me anymore. So this is the kind of journaling I did for my son, and I don't show this journal very much on social media just because it's a very private and personal notebook for me, but this is what I do. And so I would usually write just a couple of lines a day, just something cute and fun that happened that day or maybe I want to write a special message for my son.
Whatever it is, I would write it down here, and as he's getting bigger now and more and more things are happening throughout the day, I feel like I don't have enough room for a single day anymore on this journal. I want a little bit extra room. So this year, I changed to the Dingbats pocket notebook. They call this the A6+ on their website, but it's not actually A6. So if you compare it to a true A6 notebook, it's narrower and it's a bit shorter. There you can see it's shorter, but it's also a little bit bigger than the Moleskine pocket size as you can see. So it's kind of a weird in-between size, but it still fits the plastic sleeve for my pocket TN, so I'm using it here. And I chose the Dingbats notebook because I've always wanted to try the paper. I heard that it was really good, and I thought the animal cover on the front is just so cute. I'm a little sad that I'm not using the Little Prince covers anymore for my son, but this is also really good. He loves animals, he loves bears, he loves elephants, all sorts. So I was super excited to be using this notebook for his journal and it's grid paper just to make it easier for me. I really like grid paper for writing because I like to write neat, but I can't write neat on my own. I need hard guidelines for when I'm writing, so grid for me is the best, and I did do a pen test for this notebook in the back. So I tested my fountain pens on this paper, and it performed really well. There is some slight bleed through on the medium nib fountain pen that I have, but if you're using extra fine or even a fine nib, it should be fine. And the paper is so smooth to write on, like the pen just glides on the paper, and I love that feeling. I'm one of those people who loves smooth paper, like the smoother the better. And I also like cream paper. I prefer cream over white so this is pretty much the perfect paper for me.
This, and the Rhodia paper. And then as far as the journal goes, now that I'm no longer restricted by tiny rows, I have a lot more space to write in a single day, which is so good because I feel like I have so much more to say about my son. I've just been really enjoying this notebook. I'm really glad that I switched because I think if I were to use another Moleskine pocket weekly, I would most likely drop out because I just didn't want to use this format anymore. So switching to a grid notebook was a really good decision for me personally. And I do still like to put in a weekly photo in this journal so that hasn't changed. Just the way I'm writing is changing, so I'm really excited to fill up this notebook. I don't know if it's going to last the whole year, but I'll just start another one if I fill it up before the end of the year. And my plan is to journal for my son up to a point where he may be interested in journaling for himself. Hopefully he picks up my journaling hobby, but if not, I guess I'll just keep memory keeping for him, and I did add scrapbook paper to the inner cover of this notebook as well. I just wanted to personalize it to his taste. He's been really into planes also, so I thought this scrapbook paper that I have would be perfect for his journal, and then in the back, there's this back pocket here for the Dingbats as well, which I'm not using at the moment but if there are any spare photos that I want to keep for him, I'll just slide it in here. So here are all three of my daily notebooks. These are the only three notebooks that I go out of my way to update on a daily basis. All the rest, I can look at weekly, every other week, whatever, it doesn't matter. But these three I definitely want to keep up with every day, so when you think of my lineup like that, it doesn't sound that bad. Next up are my non-daily notebooks, so here they are. Here they all are.
Again these may seem like a lot, but since I'm not updating these every day, it's not that intimidating to me. So I'm gonna start with my personal rings first, and this is pretty much a reference binder, a companion to my Hobonichi Weeks. There are no dated inserts in here. It's just purely reference and goal planning, project planning. I do have to update my goals and projects tabs here for my plans for 2022, but that's what these sections are for. And then I like to look at my grocery list reference here for helping me come up with my weekly grocery list. So what I do is I just look at this list, and then go through my kitchen and then figure out which ones I need to buy for that week. So I don't buy all of this every week. It's just whatever's missing or whatever is about to run out. It helps me to have this checklist just to make sure that I have all of the staples and that I'm able to meal plan for at least one week. And in the back, I have a social media tab for my Youtube settings, Instagram settings, all that. I've done a flip of this video in my last lineup video if you want to check that out. I haven't changed the inserts. I haven't really been updating the deco or anything like that because I just haven't had the inclination to do so, but I'm really happy with how this planner looks, so I don't feel the need to change it. So there it is, my personal rings. And then next up are these two notebooks. So I showed these two notebooks in my last 2021 lineup video. This is my gaming journal in a Tsuki bullet journal from Notebook Therapy. And here's the front. I've already shown this and I'm going to be honest, I haven't done much with this notebook since I made that video because I was doing a lot of gaming rather than journaling about gaming. But I've been on a gaming break lately just because I burnt myself out on playing all the time, so I'm gonna be taking advantage of all this time that I now have again from my gaming break and catching up on my gaming journal.
And this cover is a Foxy Fix perfect fit Sugar Ethereal? Lilac? I'm not sure but it's a light purple color. And then here is my A5 ring binder that I'm trying to use as a commonplace book and this binder is the Yiwi gray croco. I bought this on Aliexpress and again the inserts. I haven't updated anything, but I do have plans for this A5 binder. I really just need to better manage my time as far as updating all of my lineup, but since this isn't dated or anything. I'm not pressuring myself to do that either, but my plan is to do some swatches on my binder. I want to do washi tape swatches, pen swatches. I also want to update my recipe section and start taking more diligent notes when I'm watching a video. I've actually been taking video notes in my daily journal here, but I need to transfer them over on my A5 binder and make them neater and more organized, because I tend to just scribble on my daily journal when I'm writing here. That's the plan with this A5 binder. It's still very much in my lineup. It's just sitting pretty and waiting for me. And then next, I have the new additions to my lineup for 2022. These two are going to be my art journals for this year. So last year, I was combining my daily journaling with my art journaling. As an example, here is one of my journals from last year. And I was doing creative journaling, collaging in this insert whenever I felt like it, and I really enjoyed these inserts. I love flipping through my art journal spreads but then the next five pages, it's just like, you know, random drivel and complaining about minor things, and I thought wouldn't it be nice to just have a journal full of just art spreads that I can flip through whenever I feel like it and feel inspired by the spreads that I made and all that, and not have 10 pages of random stuff in-between. I thought that would be great, and I also want to be able to do flip-throughs of art journals because I feel like I can't flip through any of my art spreads because the rest of the pages are personal and I can't really show what my process is, and I do find it a little frustrating.
And it's not like I'm doing this just for social media. It's just something that I want to try, and also when my friends and family are curious about art journaling and they want to see, I feel like "oh, I can't really show it because I have a lot of personal journaling to go with my art journal." So that's my reasoning for separating my art journaling with my daily journaling. I just want to see if that is going to work out for me. So I have two. I have the passport size traveler;s notebook that I haven't started journaling in yet this year, but I have the blank Moterm insert to start with for the year because I really enjoyed art journaling in my passport traveler's notebook last year, and I want to keep that up for this year. And then I also started an A5 art journal. So this cover is the Gillio Ocean Mat Croco A5 Appunto. And it's such a gorgeous color. This is one of my unicorns, and I'm so happy I was able to buy it on the Facebook Marketplace and it was brand new, so I got really lucky. Anyway so I'm using this as my A5 art journal and inside, I have the Rhodia notebook in A5. It is lined paper which is not my preference, but since I do have this notebook in my stash, I might as well use it. And I actually bought this from destash a long long time ago, so the first page is actually a pen test that the previous owner did, and I decided to just keep that as part of this notebook's story. And then I went ahead and I started art journaling. So I already posted this spread on Instagram, and I already have plans for what I want my next spread to look like, so I'm really excited about that. And I started this journal because I realized that I really missed the A5 size for art journaling when I was looking through my Instagram the other week, and I decided to just start one and since this isn't a daily notebook, I'm not pressuring myself to make an art journal spread every day.
I can just take my time with the setup and use this whenever I feel like it, and it's the same with my passport traveler's notebook. I'll make an art spread in this size whenever I feel like it. So sometimes I do feel like I want a large canvas and that's where the A5 is going to come in, and sometimes I want something cute and tiny and that's what my passport travelers notebook is going to be for. So here are my non-daily notebooks all together. Again, since I'm not using all of these everyday, I'm taking my time with them and just enjoying the process, kind of following my intuition with these notebooks. There's no stress, there's no pressure to finish them quickly, and it's just for fun which is the whole point of having a notebook lineup, right? It's all about having fun, so these are definitely for fun notebooks for me and I'll use them whenever I feel like it. So here are all of my notebooks for 2022. It is a huge stack. I think this is the largest stack that I've had since all the years I've been in the planner community, which to be fair isn't a lot of years but if you look at my previous lineup videos, this is a lot. A lot. But looking at this stack makes me happy. It gives me a lot of joy and I'm looking forward to seeing what I'm going to be doing with these notebooks in the coming year. So that's it for me. Thank you so much for watching if you're still here. If you enjoyed this video, please do consider subscribing. This is spellbound notes and I will see you next time. Bye!.
So here is my Hobonichi Weeks. I'm not completely done setting up the inside yet. I do have this sticker pocket here in the front with my planner card here that I made last year. I covered the inner pages with some scrapbook paper just to match the outside cover, and I haven't cut off these bookmarks yet but I'm seriously considering it again this year.

And this cover is a Foxy Fix perfect fit Sugar Ethereal? Lilac? I'm not sure but it's a light purple color. And then here is my A5 ring binder that I'm trying to use as a commonplace book and this binder is the Yiwi gray croco. I bought this on Aliexpress and again the inserts. I haven't updated anything, but I do have plans for this A5 binder. I really just need to better manage my time as far as updating all of my lineup, but since this isn't dated or anything. I'm not pressuring myself to do that either, but my plan is to do some swatches on my binder. I want to do washi tape swatches, pen swatches. I also want to update my recipe section and start taking more diligent notes when I'm watching a video. I've actually been taking video notes in my daily journal here, but I need to transfer them over on my A5 binder and make them neater and more organized, because I tend to just scribble on my daily journal when I'm writing here.

And I was doing creative journaling, collaging in this insert whenever I felt like it, and I really enjoyed these inserts. I love flipping through my art journal spreads but then the next five pages, it's just like, you know, random drivel and complaining about minor things, and I thought wouldn't it be nice to just have a journal full of just art spreads that I can flip through whenever I feel like it and feel inspired by the spreads that I made and all that, and not have 10 pages of random stuff in-between. I thought that would be great, and I also want to be able to do flip-throughs of art journals because I feel like I can't flip through any of my art spreads because the rest of the pages are personal and I can't really show what my process is, and I do find it a little frustrating.
And it's not like I'm doing this just for social media. It's just something that I want to try, and also when my friends and family are curious about art journaling and they want to see, I feel like "oh, I can't really show it because I have a lot of personal journaling to go with my art journal." So that's my reasoning for separating my art journaling with my daily journaling. I just want to see if that is going to work out for me. So I have two. I have the passport size traveler;s notebook that I haven't started journaling in yet this year, but I have the blank Moterm insert to start with for the year because I really enjoyed art journaling in my passport traveler's notebook last year, and I want to keep that up for this year. And then I also started an A5 art journal. So this cover is the Gillio Ocean Mat Croco A5 Appunto. And it's such a gorgeous color. This is one of my unicorns, and I'm so happy I was able to buy it on the Facebook Marketplace and it was brand new, so I got really lucky. Anyway so I'm using this as my A5 art journal and inside, I have the Rhodia notebook in A5. It is lined paper which is not my preference, but since I do have this notebook in my stash, I might as well use it. And I actually bought this from destash a long long time ago, so the first page is actually a pen test that the previous owner did, and I decided to just keep that as part of this notebook's story. And then I went ahead and I started art journaling. So I already posted this spread on Instagram, and I already have plans for what I want my next spread to look like, so I'm really excited about that. And I started this journal because I realized that I really missed the A5 size for art journaling when I was looking through my Instagram the other week, and I decided to just start one and since this isn't a daily notebook, I'm not pressuring myself to make an art journal spread every day.
I can just take my time with the setup and use this whenever I feel like it, and it's the same with my passport traveler's notebook. I'll make an art spread in this size whenever I feel like it. So sometimes I do feel like I want a large canvas and that's where the A5 is going to come in, and sometimes I want something cute and tiny and that's what my passport travelers notebook is going to be for. So here are my non-daily notebooks all together. Again, since I'm not using all of these everyday, I'm taking my time with them and just enjoying the process, kind of following my intuition with these notebooks. There's no stress, there's no pressure to finish them quickly, and it's just for fun which is the whole point of having a notebook lineup, right? It's all about having fun, so these are definitely for fun notebooks for me and I'll use them whenever I feel like it. So here are all of my notebooks for 2022. It is a huge stack. I think this is the largest stack that I've had since all the years I've been in the planner community, which to be fair isn't a lot of years but if you look at my previous lineup videos, this is a lot. A lot. But looking at this stack makes me happy. It gives me a lot of joy and I'm looking forward to seeing what I'm going to be doing with these notebooks in the coming year. So that's it for me. Thank you so much for watching if you're still here. If you enjoyed this video, please do consider subscribing. This is spellbound notes and I will see you next time. Bye!.
