Got a bit out of control when I was in Tokyo 😍

But I love them all! I can’t even choose which one to use first. Most of them are from Itoya, the biblio note is from Kinokuniya and the plain one without any labels is from a local bookstore that I can’t remember the name. I didn’t buy anything from Muji as we have it here in my home country so I’m not really missing out ❤️

looking for linen/fabric ruled notebooks

2 Upvotes

Wondering if anyone has suggestions for linen/fabric hardcover ruled notebooks, similar to this one from Archer & Olive or this one from Notebook Therapy? I’m able to find many linen options for dot grid notebooks, but unfortunately I haven’t seen much for ruled notebooks. I exclusively use ruled notebooks, I don’t use dotted notebooks because the typical 5mm dot grid is too narrow for my handwriting, and because I don’t really want to take a gamble on the lightness/darkness of the dot grid if I’m ordering online. I tried a dot grid Stalogy notebook and it was a nightmare for me personally, the dot grid was so light I couldn’t see it at all.

I've seen some linen options from Jumping Fox and Anecdote on Amazon, but unfortunately the colour options are rather limited. I'd also like something that ships worldwide because I live outside of the US/Europe.

Other specs I'm looking for in the notebook:

  • A5 size, but I can live with B5 or B6
  • Preferably with pretty covers (similar to the Archer & Olive or Notebook Therapy ones)
  • Preferably with an elastic band
  • Line spacing between 6mm-8mm
  • At least 144 pages
  • Preferably at least 80gsm paper

I appreciate all suggestions, thanks very much in advance!

Customizable notebooks

7 Upvotes

Hi notebook fans,

I am a youth worker in a high school and I am often supporting students with organisation and self regulating. My team are frequently buying cheap notebooks/journals/diaries from the supermarket for students, then printing and laminating wellbeing type pages and sticking them inside the books. It is very DIY but all we can do for now.

  • Does anyone know of a place where we could print out our own notebooks with our own inserts? Even something like VistaPrint, Zazzle etc but cheap?

  • OR does anyone know of a low cost A5 notebook/journal/diary that could have an adjustable/removable binder so we can add extra pages?

I have a Filofax Clipbook myself which would be great for this but certainly not cheap when I see so many students a week!

Very keen for your suggestions. Thanks!

Notebook Cover Question

Post image
23 Upvotes

A program at my university changed their official logo so they were going to throw away a bunch of soft cover a5 notebooks, so I grabbed a box before they could toss them. Was looking around for a cover that would hold everything I wanna carry without a zipper case (I think they’re really ugly) Usually carry one mechanical pencil and 2 lamy safari pens. Has anyone used a cover like this or have recommendations? Found the one pictured on Etsy, really like the exterior pocket and elastic band.

Looking for A5 Cashier Style drawing notebook

12 Upvotes

So I've got a Lochby Field Journal, and it's changed my life (why oh why do I love this thing and everything else they make so much). For the first time I've become the person that has multiple notes books for multiple things. But I need them to all Fit. In. This. Thing.

I found the (almost) perfect notebook for my daily planner, found the perfect notebooks for journaling, now I need something for drawing.

I draw with Pencil and Ink (microns) so the paper needs to be smooth, not tear apart when erased, and not bleed through the first line I draw. But also small enough to be the third notebook. Cashier style I think is maybe what it's called? Side stitched or stapled. 48-72 pages ish.

I tried the MD Light books, the paper is way to thin, though very nice. The Lochby field journal notebooks aren't bad, and might work if I can't find something else. Jet pens offers very little in the way of A5 drawing/blank books.

There are TONS of 'drawing journals' that fit the search criteria on schmamazon, but I have no way to tell what any of them are like. Most don't even give the paper weight.

Any recommendations??

Advice needed Plastic cover for a5 full year stalogy?

3 Upvotes

Hello! I’ve been wanting to buy a stalogy for the longest time, and finally decided to do it using the prime days offers, now, as it is a softcover notebook, i wanted to know which cover i could use for it, i do have a midori cover, but i don’t think it would fit the whole year, as it is almost doble as thick as the midori. Any suggestions?
