For years, Iโve been a Happy Planner girl through and through! ๐ The cute covers, colorful layouts, and disc-bound system (hello, customizable inserts!) have kept me coming back year after year. And donโt even get me started on the joy of decorating each spread with stickers! ๐ฅฐ
But latelyโฆ Iโve noticed something. I havenโt been using my planner as much. ๐ฒ And I keep seeing so many adorable Hobonichi-style setups that it got me thinkingโฆ should I try something new?! ๐

๐ Happy Planner vs. Hobonichi (โฆSort of!)
Hereโs the thingโI donโt love the Hobonichi itself. The cover is just too plain for my taste. (Yes, I could sticker bomb it, but still!) I needed something cute, fun, and still functional with daily spreads and a sleek notebook feel.
Enter the Hubman & Chubgirl planner! ๐ It has that minimalist but still stylish vibe I love, but with layouts that work better for me and look at that cover! ๐
โจ Why Iโm Making the Switch! ๐
๐ Size & Portability โ As much as I love my Happy Planner, sometimes I want something a little slimmer and easier to toss in my bag.
๐ Fresh Layouts โ A new planner means new ways to organize my lifeโand Iโm totally here for that. ๐ก
๐ Because Itโs Fun! โ Letโs be realโฆ half the fun of planning is trying new things, testing layouts, and playing with stickers. ๐
๐ Will I Miss My Happy Planner?
Um, YES! 100%. Iโve loved my big, beautiful pages for so long, and I know Iโll always have a soft spot for them. But who says I canโt switch back if I feel like it? Planning should be fun and flexible! (Just like our schedulesโฆ hopefully ๐).
๐๏ธ My Plan for Q2!
Like breaking in a cute new pair of shoes, I need some time to adjust and make this planner mine. So, for Q2, Iโm setting up my new H&C planner, testing it out, and (of course) sharing all my thoughts along the way. Will I totally fall in love? ๐ Or will I be running back to my Happy Planner by Q3? Stay tuned! โจ
