Carefully crafted by hand using only the best quality full grain tough rustic cowhide leather, these personalized notebook covers are built to endure. As the journals are handled they will gain unique markings, making them even more personal and truly one of a kind. Each notebook cover is made to order and is personalized by hand in my small workshop.

This travel notebook has 4 elastic strands which can hold 4 notebooks in place. You can easily swap them out at any time & they are compatible with many easily available inserts.

PERSONALIZATION INFO

‣ Each individual brass letter is placed by hand
‣ Heat and pressure is used for embossing to ensure a quality & lasting imprint. (superior to laser engraving)
‣ Choose to personalize with your name, date, initials or special words.
‣ The font will be times new roman.
‣ I will choose the size type that suits your request best - going with large or small where it makes sense aesthetically.
‣ All sentence case will be done in 24 pt (the smaller letters shown in examples)
‣ The larger letters are only available in uppercase.
‣ Embossing is available on the front side only
‣ My processing times are fast, so I do not provide photos or a proof before shipping - but it will be just as beautiful as my examples.

Size info:
All brands of inserts in the same size will fit.

Please let me know if you are unsure which option is best for your preferred notebook/inserts.

LEATHER INFO:
‣ Real thick full grain cowhide leather
‣ Since leather is a natural material, please expect slight variances & imperfections. Like with all luxury leathers, expect potential tannery stamps on the inside of the leather. These are small markings of luxury, authenticity. I will not provide a refund for this stamp on the inside of the leather applied by the tannery.
Full grain vegetable tanned cowhide leather ( real leather) : Firm, smooth texture, builds amazing patina, pliable but holds shape over time. Vibrant colors.


PROCESSING TIME & SHIPPING
‣ Processing time is the amount of time I need to create your custom leather journal cover. This info can be found below the add to cart button, as well as from within the cart before checkout.

When I opened the package, I was blown away by how much thought and effort went into not only the item, but also the packaging. The cover came with a leather origin certificate, extra elastic bands, a handwritten note, and a little storage bag. It was all quite elegant, with black-on-black packaging, a bow, and simple gold branding. Initial inspection of the item was completely satisfactory in regards to quality. I was surprised it didn't come with paper, but after reading the description again, I realized I had misplaced expectations. I had messaged the seller about a time estimate, as I hadn't seen an Etsy update, and she responded promptly and courteously. I also had a special request, which she addressed perfectly. Overall, an amazing experience. Depending on the item's longevity, I'll likely purchase from this seller again.

Once again, ForestNine is the best. I've ordered two things from this shop (so far) and they have both been excellent quality and very useful. If I ever want anything else, I know where I'll be shopping!
