COVER DESIGN
This handcrafted, leather, personalized BOOK REVIEW journal features a simple, classic notebook design with a latch and rivet enclosure. The outcome is timeless sophistication with a nostalgic old world feel. All of my books and journals are made to last a lifetime (at least!) And the leather only gets better with time.
BINDING STYLE
SEWN BOUND - This journal is hand-bound using a historical bookbinding technique of sewing the pages into the spine, which gives a lovely old-world look and feel. This binding method is durable and permanent.
PERSONALIZATION
We use an old-fashioned style of personalizing your leather, called Embossing. Heat is pressed into your journal cover, leaving a gorgeous and rustic looking imprint that is permanent.
See examples of embossing throughout the listing photos on any listing.
If you select the EMBOSS option, your book review journal can be personalized with YOUR NAME + "READING JOURNAL" or “BOOK REVIEWS” or any variation of that you prefer. Names include up to 15 characters.
>>>>Please leave your preferred embossing in the Personalization Box or Order Notes. YOU MUST SPECIFY if you would like a title such as BOOK REVIEWS in addition to your name. Unless otherwise specified, names by default go in the BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER; titles by default go in the TOP CENTER.
If you would like additional characters, you may add the listing entitled "Additional Embossing" to your order; located in the MORE CUSTOMIZATIONS section.
Alpha-numeric font is all caps, Times Roman.
Special characters available include: . ' , # @ ? ! " $ % & * : > < ; / \ •Names, initials, etc, typically go in the lower right corner by default on most journal designs; unless your specific journal design, size, and personalization length warrant a different location. If you have a specific location you would like your embossing to go, you must message me or indicate the desired location in the order notes. If specific instructions are not left by you, formatting and location discretion will be left up to myself, and determined by what is most appropriate given your specific journal design and personalization.

Our leathers are USA tanned, premium full-grain cowhides chosen for their rustic yet beautiful character.
Due to the nature of the authentic leather hides, there will always be variation and uniqueness from one journal to the next.
Each hide will have some degree of "pull-up," which refers to color variation where the leather is creased or bent; which gives the rustic and distressed appearance. Pull-up creases go away with rubbing the leather with a cloth or by hand.
