a whole lot of bullet journals

I had a super productive start for this week and finished not only the planned case bound bullet journal lot but eight long stitch bullet journals as well! Despite a steady flow of orders I'm still making these dotted grid notebooks in very limited lots and with planned variations from lot to lot - so, if you find a book you like, I suggest you grab it quick before it's gone! This time the notebooks are all one offs. Not making multiples keeps me entertained and guarantees your book is as unique as you!

Small and large case bound notebooks, both with 96 pages. (My least favourite part about working with book cloth: getting that moiré effect on photos from the weft and weave of the cloth. In reality the book cloth is really nice and solid coloured.)

Large long stitch bullet journals with either 72 or 120 pages. These open exceptionally well, so they're really nice to use.

All of the above books can now be found in my shop's bullet journal section, where there are lots of other books with dotted grid pages, too. Some even come with linen drawstring pouches for protection!

This week my studio is freezing cold, so I need to stay active and bounce from project to project, and occasionally I just migrate to the living room and enjoy Netflix marathons with V. while folding some origami stars for you! We had -9°C temperatures already and snow on the ground, but we expect autumn to return next week. A part of me hopes for some warmer weather for warmer hands...
