5 out of 5 starsAn absolutely beautiful hand crafted journal! I very much love it, and would like to purchase more from the orange windmill in the future. They are equally nice to write in with pen. The shipping was right on time and the journal was perfectly wrapped. Thank you! ^^

5 out of 5 starsPrepare yourself, because I’m about to gush about a freakin’ journal....this pandemic has been very hard for me, I have a few severe mental health problems and being unemployed and isolated has made me very depressed. This journal is my light!! I found it on Etsy and it just spoke to me, then I saw that the maker was from the same place that my dad was born. It was fate! I have felt so creative and inspired since I received the journal. The craftsmanship is breathtaking and the detail is so beautiful, it actually makes me emotional. Thank you thank you thank you for creating something that could help bring me back to life.
About TheOrangeWindmill
Journals Made From Locally Found Leather and Vintage Books
The Orange Windmill is a one-woman creative business based out of Hamilton, Ontario, Canada. I use unwanted materials to create beautiful things. The leather used for most of my journals are remnants from upholstery projects. The hardcover journals come from discarded vintage books. I love being able to use old and breathe new life into it!
I love each part of the bookbinding process - from cutting the leather to piercing the hand-torn pages to binding them all together to make something useful and beautiful.
It's my dream to one day own a studio and gift shop, where I will sell only handmade items from all over the world!
