So I made these cute little DIY Easter egg decorations and it got me thinking, should I do a DIY coloring journal?? I’m thinking a natural wood cover with a design on engraved it that you can color yourself. Should I try it??

I’ve been practicing making some casebound books and really loving it. More coming soon.

I definitely keep forgetting this app exists, but I’ll hopefully have more to show you here soon! Things have been slow this year so far, but I’ve been working on a few personal projects I’m very excited to share as soon as I can.

I’m really loving this green lately 😍 Anyone else???

I only do white books by special request because they’re extra tricky to keep clean. My process has improved so that I can make a white book cover with more confidence, but it still takes a little extra work. So if you’ve ever wondered why white is not one of my regular color options, now you know!

The lighting makes this book look like a dark blue, but it’s actually the prettiest color shift.

Did you know I punch holes in every single page of a journal by hand before sewing them all together? Assuming I’m not adding any embellishments to a notebook cover, folding all the pages and punching the holes is the longest part of the bookmaking process for me.

From start to finish 🙌🏼 if you haven’t checked out @knowledgeistower.bsky.social you definitely need to.

I’m all about those designs that look good on their own, but if you’re in the loop they’re that much better. I definitely feel that with these two.

I’m debuting these custom memory journals today in honor of my dad who passed away a year ago today. They’re filled with prompts to help you remember a loved one who has passed and, like always, full of custom options. elmrosedesigns.etsy.com/listing/1823...

These extra large Coptic journals are always some of my favorites to make. They’re twice as big as my normal campaign journals and can still be customized to your liking. #bookbinding #dungeonsanddragons
