Hobonichi x Plus Deco Rush - Yoshie Watanabe Petit Bloom

The Deco Rush by Plus × Hobonichi works like a correction roller – instead of correction tape, it applies a continuous series of delicate illustrations to the paper. This model features the "Petit Bloom" design from art director Yoshie Watanabe's Hobonichi 2027 collection: a world of fine blossoms in elegant, understated color harmony. The tape is 10 mm wide and perfectly sized for the monthly column area of Hobonichi Techo planners.

Special Features

• Adhesive technology instead of ink: The deco tape leaves no ink irregularities and doesn't bleed through the page – can be used without problems even on the tissue-thin Tomoe River paper of the Hobonichi Techo.
• No buildup: The tape has no perceptible thickness; the book remains slimmer even after many deco tapes than with pasted stickers.
• Glossy surface: The film has a slight gloss finish that renders the fine Petit Bloom motifs clearly and precisely.
• Protective flap: The roller head is protected by a hinged flap that can be flipped out before application and snapped back afterward – protects the tape in your bag.
• Yoshie Watanabe / Petit Bloom: The design comes from the Hobonichi 2027 collection by art director Yoshie Watanabe – a line known for clear elegance and fine color palette.

Application & Tips

• Monthly spread: The 10 mm width fits exactly into one line of the Hobonichi monthly layout – as a dividing line between weeks or as a delicate frame for individual days.
• Weekly planner accents: Applied horizontally in the daily section of the Hobonichi, the Petit Bloom pattern structures appointment blocks without compromising readability.
• Technique: The tape adheres best to smooth surfaces. Apply the roller flat, pull evenly and slowly. At the end, lift the roller perpendicular to the paper – this creates a clean edge without fraying.
• Underlayer: A writing pad (pencil board) under the page provides more counter-pressure and ensures more even application.
• Combination: The understated Petit Bloom design harmonizes with fountain pen inks in cool blue, gray, and green tones as well as with fine nibs in the EF to F range.
• Notebooks and journals: The tape works perfectly well on smooth, calendered paper of other journals – anywhere the surface is even and smooth.

For Techo Enthusiasts

Yoshie Watanabe is an art director who created a collection for Hobonichi 2027 based on clear structures and subtle color palette. "Petit Bloom" – small blossoms in fine arrangement – is also available as a Techo cover and Weeks binding; the Deco Rush tape allows you to carry this same visual language into the planner's interior pages. Since the tape contains no ink, it does not react with fountain pen ink or gel inks on the page – it can be written over once the adhesive is fully set.
