Recently, I merged their notebooks into softcover Moleskin notebooks and put them in a large traveler's notebook to keep them in one place. I sometimes include photos or bits and pieces of things they've written and tossed, even drawings... Continue Reading →
I shared a few images on my Instagram of the Spice Latte Traveler's Notebook I purchased but here's a few more. I'm loving this TN so much. It's a very soft and pliable leather. It feels so good in my hands. The color is a light taupe but more on the brownish beige side. I... Continue Reading →
I've been doing a ton of Youtube and Google research on the Fauxdori, an imitation (DIY) version of the Midori Traveler's Notebook, and finally found the courage and materials to make my first two. The leather were scraps...I was aware that there would be dents and stuff on them which was fine with me since... Continue Reading →
