Three ways to use the Hobonichi Weeks + a full mid-year flip-through | messy planning

Hi, friends!

I hope you’re doing well. In this week’s video, I’ll show you three ways that I’m using the Hobonichi Weeks - as a health and wellness tracker, a meal planner, and a home and garden planner. I’ll also do a full flip-through of each of them and reflect on what happened, what went well, what went less well, and what I learned in the last 6ish months that I’ve been using each of these books.

Are you a fan of the Hobonichi Weeks? I’d love to know how you’re using them and if you have any suggestions on how I can improve my use (especially the home and garden one!).

Also, if you have any feedback or requests for future videos, please let me know! Thanks for being here; I appreciate you! 💗
