New additions to the shop, at last! Four hardcover notebooks with heavier weight paper and ten notebooks bound with the sewn boards binding style that results in semi-flexible covers.
This golden yellow kimono silk with white flowers is one of my all time favorites. The weave playing with light makes this fabric look simply magical.
I guess a majority of the books I added to the shop today have a beautiful pattern woven into the silk in addition to the printed pattern. I love how much time and effort has been put into designing these kimono fabrics – it makes upcycling them into books all the more rewarding.
This one has also some gold print on it!
For those less into colors and bold patterns I’ve made this trio of black notebooks with patterned spines.
At the end of year I moved my workspace to a new location (not open to public, unfortunately), and I’m still getting used to it and searching for things in wrong places. I’m thinking maybe I should make some bullet journals next, haven't made those in ages! What do you think? I have a little too much book cloth and printed papers in stock (=not enough space to store them), and bullet journals would allow for some nice pairings. Spring is fast approaching and I hope the lighter days bring more energy to my studio. And to you and yours, too, of course.
The world is a strange place these days. Most of my customers live in the U.S., so of course I’m a bit concerned what happens if the change in EU tariffs takes place. 25% is quite a bit, so if you’ve dreamed of getting one of my books, maybe now would be a good time to place an order. Delivery via economy mail can take 2-3 weeks. If you’re interested in priority air mail (4-7 business days), you can always contact me and inquire about the cost.
I wish kind days to everyone. Many pages of gentle thoughts.
