Hello peeps and Happy Monday! Today, I found the source file for this set of happynichi or fauxbonichi planner stickers while I was converting my files to Adobe Illustrator CC. So, I am providing another fauxbonichi planner stickers release for you today. I haven’t released these for a long while; so, I have changed the color theme and restyled some of the stickers for the season!
I redid a previous release with a lovely pink and green color theme and of course, some cute doodled graphics. You can find additional sets that I have created within the blog post and at the tail end.

What is a Fauxbonichi or Happynichi?
These planner stickers are designed for the “fauxbonichi” or otherwise known as the “happynichi”. For many of you planner newbies, just to recap on what a fauxbonichi is…
The fauxbonichi is a restyled planner that resembles the layout of the popular Hobonichi Techo Weeks planner. However, it uses Me and My Great Idea’s ( the manufacturer of the Happy Planner) popular “skinny” or Happy notes planner. It measures 4.125″ by 9.25″ (the interior pages) and has 9 discs as the binding, the same as the Classic Happy Planner.
The pages for the fauxbonichi are approximately half the size of the Classic Happy Planner. Depending on the half sheets you use, and how they are designed, you can use this type of planner as a portable personal planner. This planner has two great things going for it, it is slimmer, therefore more portable and the discs allow for a greater flexibility for adding or moving the interior pages, something that bound planners do not allow.
While these planner stickers I am providing today can fit smaller personal planners, they are styled differently from most small stickers.
Other Uses for these Fauxbonichi Stickers
The Hobonichi Techo Weeks is smaller at 3 3/4″ by 6. 3/4″. I have gotten feedback that many of you are using these smaller stickers for your personal planners.
You might want to reduce the printable by 10 percent or so to actually get them to fit but they are not an exact match.
What Type of Planners Do these Stickers Fit?
These planner stickers are made for the redesigned Fauxbonichi type of planners.
However, you might want to take a look at the different personal planners mentioned in the following list to see if they will be suitable for your planner.
Different planner binder companies give these smaller size binders different names; but , generally, they are usually as small as a pocket book and can be carried in one’s purse or briefcase:
The page size is usually about 3.75″ x 6.75″ or 95mm by 171 mm as in the “personal” and compact planners by Filofax.
The page size for the Recollections planner is 4″ by 6.75″.
Please note: These stickers will also fit in a Traveler’s Notebook which can accommodate filler sheets or inserts with a horizontal layout that are sized at 4.33″ x 8.25″ or 127 mm x 210mm.
The other planner that these stickers might fit is the Hobonichi Techo Weeks which is 3.7″ x 7.4″
Please keep in mind, these stickers are much smaller than my usual Erin Condren or Happy Planner stickers!
How small are the stickers?
The full box stickers in this set are approximately 1.0″ inch in height. The small circle round stickers are approximately 3/8″ or 1/4″ across.

How to Use this “Fauxbonichi” Planner Stickers Printable:
There are several ways you can use this printable to create your stickers and I have included a few in the following instructions:
1) The easiest way to use this printout is to print it out on a full sheet of white sticker paper and if you own a Silhouette Cameo or Silhouette Portrait or other digital cutter you can cut out the to-do lists or planner stickers using their designer software. ( **Please note: You must have the Silhouette Designer Edition software upgrade to open pdfs in your Silhouette. I also have redesigned the template so that the margins are within the “registration” area of your silhouette. You will have to spend some time creating the cutlines for the Silhouette.)
2) Also another method, would be to use heavy bond printer paper or you can use 65 lb. white cardstock depending on how thick you want your sticker and then place adhesive via a snail tape runner or with a Xyron sticker tool or machine.
3) The time consuming way is to print out the planner stickers on sticker paper and “fussy cut” out by hand, I have spaced the elements so that you can use a pair of good craft scissors to get a clean cut and handle the fussy cutting. Another handy tool to have for the straight cuts is a slide or rotary paper trimmer which will reduce cutting around the stickers. Reader’s tip: If you are cutting by hand, do it while watching TV.
Facts about the freebie:
- A set of 105+ planner stickers on a 8 1/2″ by 11″ jpeg file (landscape). – 1.7 MB
- These elements were created at 300 dpi. Your printing results should be very clear and sharp with a smooth lay down of the ink color. The preview pictures both on the blog and on Google are at 72 dpi, so you often can not see all the detail accurately or colors are sometimes distorted.
- Color scheme: violet, light purple, sage green, light green
As usual these freebies are free for personal use, (check my TOU if you haven’t previously.) If you have been here before, you know the drill. If not, you might want to read the quick TOU below before you access the printable.
