I don't normally use the personal size leather covers because I just find that they don't have enough room to write, but the Lancaster Traveler's Notebook cover was so tempting that I had to get one. I already have a personal cover for my address book, etc., but went ahead and switched the notebooks out... Continue Reading →
Photos of Sugarplum, January, and No. 8 Leather Notebook Covers
Earlier this year, I shared an unboxing on video on Youtube of the three full-grain leather notebook covers above but didn't get the chance to share the photos (you can watch the video here >>> Unboxing 3 Notebook Covers), so here they are. Sugarplum B6 January (this is the name of the leather) A5: I've... Continue Reading →
Photos of Woodhouse Personal and Huckleberry B6 Traveler’s Notebook Leather Covers
By now you're probably super tired of seeing all these beautiful full-grain leather notebook covers. I'm obsessed by them and could never get tired of looking at them and touching them, so just bare with me. I'm still reading books. In fact, I'm reading two books right now: Bleak House by Charles Dickens and an... Continue Reading →
Snow Day (Photos) and Unboxing Video of 3 Notebook Covers
Daughter had a snow day today, which means no school. She's both excited and bummed. Excited because she can relax and not worry about doing homework, and bummed because she spent an hour yesterday making Crepes for French class and now she'll have to eat them by herself (and with me of course) or throw...

Photos of the Dark Brown Scout Cascade TN
The Maverick leather by Chic Sparrow is one of my favorite traveler's notebook cover. It's a water buffalo leather with amazing lightning veins. It's also one of the thicker leathers they carry. I believe the Creme leather is the thickest. The Scout is similar to the Maverick except the inside pockets uses the Creme leather... Continue Reading →
A Closer Look at the Black Beauty Creme B6 Traveler’s Notebook Cover
The Creme line from Chic Sparrow is their thickest leather. It's a soft and pliable, supple full-grain leather with a decent amount of structure so it's not floppy. It feels so nice and sturdy in your hands. It also smells wonderful. I'm not advertising for them. I simply love this leather, and a few others,... Continue Reading →
Snow + Unboxing Video: Woodhouse Personal and Huckleberry B6
We got snow today. It's beautiful but slippery. This is a view from the study, where I spend the majority of my time writing, recording, and crafting. Here's a video of my unboxing of the Austen Woodhouse Personal and Creme Huckleberry B6. They are both leather traveler's notebook covers by Chic Sparrow. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ikMXABdjj0Y I just... Continue Reading →
Gastaldi Cascade Folio A5
I've never been a fan of the color green for notebook covers, but lately it's been a color I'm drawn too. My first purchase of a green cover was the Glas Folio B6 from the Express line. I thought I was good with that one, but then the Gastaldi from the Artist line captured my... Continue Reading →
Emma B6 Traveler’s Notebook
If you haven't seen my video, I did an unboxing of this leather. It's an Austen Emma B6 Heritage by Chic Sparrow. I ordered this leather notebook cover during the December 2021 sale. This leather patina's pretty quickly. I've had it for about a month and it's already darker than when I received it. It... Continue Reading →
Unboxing Video: Chic Sparrow Emma B6 TN and Gastaldi A5 Folio
These are two of the prettiest notebooks I've purchased. I can't wait to start using them! Will post still photos of them later. For now, enjoy this unboxing. I was super nervous talking, so you might be able to hear it in my voice. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A2yQR64I_MY
