5 out of 5 starsThe Binding Bee was so great to work with! I had seen and admired their products at local craft fairs for years. When I was ready to order, I worked with them directly via Etsy and email. Their products are beautiful, hand made and unique.

5 out of 5 starsThis journal is perfect! The leather and stitching is nice. The lock and key are STUNNING. Shipped was very fast, it was sent out the morning after I purchased it and arrived within a couple days. I couldn’t be happier. I would absolutely purchase again. Thank you Binding Bee!!

5 out of 5 starsAbsolutely in love with the journal! Purchased this for my daughter for a school project where she has to pretend she is an early explorer and make journal entries about her discoveries. Seller was so easy to work with, had great communication and the finished product is stunning! Did I mention that the turn around time was extremely quick, because it was. Would absolutely do business again!

About
Leather journals handmade in Indianapolis, Indiana
As a lifelong lover of books, reading and keeping a journal, bookbinding was a natural fit for me. I started exploring the world of book arts in high school at our local library by reading how-to books and absorbing all of the artist journals I could find.
Later in college, I learned my first historical binding stitch and fell in love. I have been bookbinding ever since! Binding Bee officially started in 2008 when I opened up my Etsy shop and started selling at small craft shows around Indiana. Since then, it has grown into my full-time job, and I travel to art fairs around the Midwest and sell on Etsy. To see more details about my making process and samples of custom work, please visit my website: www.bindingbee.com
