Unique journals are crafted with imagination, using cast-offs & "finds" from the recycle bin and fresh materials from the art store. I specialize in Japanese stab binding, one of the world’s most versatile and elegant bookbinding styles. Each blank notebook has double-fold flexible covers, natural-fiber stitching in traditional patterns, unlined pages for writing or sketching, and unique embellishments. They are truly one-of-a-kind books to use, give, and treasure. And if you have a desire to “self publish” a poem or tribute or essay you’ve written for family members, I’ll bind identical books in the custom colors you select.
