The Hobonichi switch revisited - a year of using the system
How is Helen getting on with her Hobonichi system compared to Bullet Journals
Hi,
We hope you are doing safe and well. Welcome to another edition of the Stationery Freaks newsletter.
We’ve just posted another episode of the show in which Helen shares how she’s getting on with her Hobonichi system.
(Some images are shared at the end of this newsletter).
At the end of last year (2023) Helen switched from Bullet Journals to the Hobonichi system. We did an episode on this switch in early 2024 - you can listen to that episode here, where Helen shared why switching over the New Year was a bad idea.
And so, a year later, we revisited this topic to hear how Helen is getting on, what’s adapted and whether she still needs a suitcase to carry around her growing sticker collection.
You can listen to the episode here.
I ask Helen about the Hobonichi system, how it differs from Bullet Journaling, how she organises her stickers, whether Helen then keeps each notebook and how her system works.
Helen shares more about the Hobonichi eco-system, bulldog clips & paper clips and how she’s had to retire her massive collection of Washi-tape.
You can listen to the episode here.
We also talk about or mention:
Mark and Fold stationers & our chat on the show with founder Amy.

And lovely kind comments left on Rob’s video from fellow stationery freaks
Another episode and festive listening
We are hoping to squeeze in another episode before Christmas, but let’s see how our calendars align.
If you missed our festive episodes from a few years back - here’s some lovely festive listening leading up to Christmas.

Until next time
