5 out of 5 starsEverything about this!! Five big wonderful stars honestly!
The book is gorgeous, sturdy, exactly what I needed. I had reached out to the seller to customize the pages, heard back right away, and even with the customization (which turned out perfect) the book shipped SO quickly! I couldn't believe it, I had planned to wait weeks. The pages are thick enough for no bleed/ghosting with regular 'gel' pens (ie the Pilot G-2 we use often at our corp office).
I am so happy with this purchase and I will definitely be back for another once this one's full. -

5 out of 5 starsI absolutely love this album. I wanted something to display my Zentangle tiles, and this has worked out beautifully. There is enough room to center the standard 3.5 square tile, and then tangle a frame around it. The pages are a good quality paper, and my in does not bleed through. I will definitely get another one once I run out of pages!
The only fault I can find, is the adhesive corners take a bit to get used to. Since my tiles have rounded corners, it was tricky at first to full insert. I have figured out a system, and all is good now. They adhere nicely, and I’m able to switch out my tiles. -

About ThePlumUmbrella
My passion is combining my love of color and pattern with my love of bookbinding
Call me old-fashioned but I still like to write things down. There’s just something different about putting pen to paper than there is in typing something. It’s more personal. It takes time. It gives you space. There’s something about having your thoughts represented in physical space, something you can hold in your hand. You can capture your present and read through your past. My joy is making vibrant, durable books that people use to organize, contemplate & chronicle their lives.
I've been learning the craft of bookbinding for 16 years. At my day job I repair books; at home I make them from scratch. There is a joy in crafting something from start to finish - envisioning how it will look and how it will function - and in the process of turning paper and fabric into a beautiful book where someone can tuck away their personal thoughts, dreams, photos and to-do lists.
I'm a very visual person, a lover of color and pattern. The right color combination can totally brighten my day and change my mood. I'm inspired by bright, vibrant scenes as well as dark and moody ones. I could get lost for hours staring at a great pattern.
My passion is combining my love of color and pattern with my love of bookbinding. The result is this shop. I hope you find something here that you love and will inspire you.
