So I made these cute little DIY Easter egg decorations and it got me thinking, should I do a DIY coloring journal?? I’m thinking a natural wood cover with a design on engraved it that you can color yourself. Should I try it??

I’ve been practicing making some casebound books and really loving it. More coming soon.

I’m really loving this green lately 😍 Anyone else???

I only do white books by special request because they’re extra tricky to keep clean. My process has improved so that I can make a white book cover with more confidence, but it still takes a little extra work. So if you’ve ever wondered why white is not one of my regular color options, now you know!

The lighting makes this book look like a dark blue, but it’s actually the prettiest color shift.

Did you know I punch holes in every single page of a journal by hand before sewing them all together? Assuming I’m not adding any embellishments to a notebook cover, folding all the pages and punching the holes is the longest part of the bookmaking process for me.

From start to finish 🙌🏼 if you haven’t checked out @knowledgeistower.bsky.social you definitely need to.

I’m all about those designs that look good on their own, but if you’re in the loop they’re that much better. I definitely feel that with these two.

I’m debuting these custom memory journals today in honor of my dad who passed away a year ago today. They’re filled with prompts to help you remember a loved one who has passed and, like always, full of custom options.

These extra large Coptic journals are always some of my favorites to make. They’re twice as big as my normal campaign journals and can still be customized to your liking.
