Hobonichi TSUKI no IRO: Transparent Dot Stickers (15mm)
The TSUKI no IRO Transparent Dot Stickers bring twelve gentle seasonal colours from the Hobonichi Techo palette into a functional, circular format. Each dot is made from clear PET – the material sits smoothly on the page, peels away cleanly, and keeps everything beneath it fully visible. Two sheets, 48 dots, 15 mm diameter: large enough for visible markings, small enough not to dominate.
Features
- Transparent PET: The background remains completely legible – text, drawings, pre-printed lines. The colour sits like a soft shimmer over the paper without obscuring anything.
- 15 mm diameter: Large enough to work as a distinct colour accent and temporarily fix small note slips; precise enough for daily and monthly pages in Techo format.
- 12 colours, 4 stickers each: Distribution across both sheets reflects the complete TSUKI no IRO palette – ideal for building a consistent colour-coding system.
- Smooth, stable PET material: Adheres evenly to smooth paper, can be repositioned, and doesn't tear when removed. Leaves no residue on Tomoe River paper.
- Sheet format: 126 × 74 mm – approximately the size of a Techo page and stores compactly.
Use & Tips
- Colour coding by category: Assign one colour per life area (work, projects, appointments, personal) on your monthly overview – transparency keeps existing entries readable.
- Memo fixing: Stick a dot over the corner of a small note to temporarily secure it on a diary page without using tape.
- Highlight layer: Place directly over handwritten text to mark priorities – works particularly well on smooth, ink-fast paper, as the dot's colour overlays the text without obscuring it.
- Legends and keys: Build a colour legend on the first page of your notebook: apply a dot, note its meaning next to it. Use as a reference throughout the book.
- Combination within the TSUKI no IRO series: Coordinate colours across pages using sticky notes and index stickers from the same collection.
For Planning Enthusiasts
PET stickers of this thickness are sensitive to paper surface tension: on Tomoe River pages (like in the Hobonichi Techo), the material adheres particularly evenly and can be repositioned multiple times without damaging the delicate surface. If you use the dots as overlays for pencil or ink marks, ensure the ink has completely dried before applying the sticker – oil-based or water-based inks may run underneath the PET. Water-based fountain pen inks dry at varying speeds depending on paper quality; on Tomoe River, a brief wait of 30–60 seconds is recommended.
