Á while back I discovered you can paint Leather Travelers Notebooks with acrylic paint, my all time favorite medium. Regular Acrylic paint will work, however special acrylics for leather are better and give a much nicer result. Since then I have made quite a few Traveler’s notebooks that were painted, among which are my painted …
Since I started making Traveler’s Notebooks I have tried out several different ways to thread the elastic through the spine to keep the notebooks inside. Obviously I started with the normal method, which is one thread, this is realy plenty to keep the notebooks in place. However I got so many requests to put two …
A year has passed since I made my first leather Traveler’s Notebook and I’ve been using this sytem now for well over a year. I’ve been making my own diaries and inserts right from the start and have adapted the system to suit my needs. I’ve used several different lay-outs and setups through-out this period, …
I received several questions about how to add extra booklets to your traveler’s notebook and since this is rather difficult to explain with just words, I thought I’d make a blogpost about it with pictures to make it easier to see.

A very short post from me today, to show that I’m still alive (and kicking). I’ve been really busy building the content for my little Etsy shop, which is now starting to look like a real shop. I’m really proud with how it’s all starting to come together. Still not completely there yet, but people …
Last month I found out about a phenomenon called NaNoWriMo. I thought all month about joining, because I always wanted to write a book. I always figured I would do that someday. By the end of the month I realised, someday was never going to come. I would just have to bite the bullet or …
Lately I’ve sortof been obsessed with making these Midori style Travelers Notebooks (MTN) and things to put in them. Trying to figure out how to put it all together and make those beautiful notebooks, covers and accesories. What materials to use, the leather, the elastic and those nifty thingies they use to connect the elastic …
I wasn’t going to write a WOYWW post today, because I have so much stuff to do. I figured it wouldn’t be responsible of me to write a post and then not find the time to go and comment on the other workdesks out there … and there are a lot …. But you know …
