DIY Leather Journal Kit with Tools & Beaded Pen - Make Your Own Journal

Item highlights

  • Materials: full grain leather, a5 notebooks, waxed thread, beaded pen

Seller's description

Make your own hand-bound leather journal, or give them as unique gifts! These are carefully hand cut and shipped quickly from Montana.

Included are:
Leather cover, leather strap, waxed thread, needle, four journal notebook inserts, beaded pen supplies, awl* and instructions. Please note that this is natural leather and has variations such as scratches, brands, scars, and variation in the color. Many of our journals feature a natural edge, which adds to their one-of-a-kind character. If you’d prefer a straight-cut edge please let us know. The leather has been pre-cut with holes punched for stitching in the kits without tools. The kits with tools include an awl and the leather and notebooks are marked for you to hole-punch them. Please note that the kits with the awl are not suitable for children as they are very sharp, and caution should be used. Your four pen bead colors will be a surprise, carefully picked to coordinate with your journal and thread colors.

A5 kits are larger sized, approximately 6x9 inches, while A6 are smaller, pocket-sized journals, just under 5x7 inches.

Kits marked as SECONDS have some small mistakes or imperfections, but still make great journals. Currently, all seconds listings are for A5 size.
