Leather Handmade Journal

Gave this as a confirmation gift to a very bright, gifted and very musically talented young man. He absolutely loves it.

The notebook is covered in light leather, perfect for a gift, easy to use.

Beautiful leather quality

I bought this for the cover, cut the journal, and placed a small Catholic book inside it tucked into the pocket cover. On the other side, I put the journal (but cut it down to fit). Now I have a cute Missellette and journal for my trip to Italy/Vatican. Even lasered my name on the inside. I am going to use a bit of my boot oil to soften it up the leather a bit as well. Very nice quality. Came fast shipping

I initially purchased this journal for a client because of the symbolism of the Tree of Life. I have several variations of the Tree of Life in my home as it is one of my favorite images. I was pleased about the the quality and the look. My client's reaction was wonderful which confirmed that I made the right purchase.I bought 3 more - one for my business partner, one for me and as a thank you gift for another client. I read the description and comments especially in the low ratings very carefully before buying the first one.I was surprised that for the price it is really leather - (I can see it in the under skin and there is the smell of leather). The journal papers does not lay flat - they give you a good amount of paper and I assume that's why there is a strap to wrap around the binder and I handle with care. I also paid attention that the journal is an insert which is why it's refillable. There was a small tear on back grey insert but it didn't take away from the functionality and quickly fixed with a piece of tape. I liked the personal thank you note - it was a nice touch. I believe as with leather, it will soften over time.Every experience is different and I wanted to be intentional and thoughtful with my review to ensure my expectations were realistic. I found this product to be excellent especially for the price. I have more expensive journals that are not this beautiful. I will definitely buy this again. I am initially giving it an overall 4 stars because it just came so I haven't had a chance to use it as yet.I forgot to add that the bag to present it in adds to the beauty of the gift.I have just updated my rating to 5 Stars.

Pay attention to the size detail, because this journal is quite small. I bought it as a gift. Make sure the person receiving it not only write really tiny, but is extraordinarily succinct!! 😕

First of all, I'd like to say the seller took the extra time to pack this very well. This is very much appreciated. Second, the art detail was stunning and leather is very good quality. Have friend obsessed with Tree of Life items. Feel 100% positive they will love this. Special thank you to seller and Amazon both for making this product available. Great price, fast shipping. I highly recommend this item. I purchased Smokey. Beautiful color.

As someone who is on his 11th journal in the past 15 years I can be pretty picky. My last two journals that I finished were bought by my wife in a specialty shop in Pikes Market, downtown Seattle. That was three years ago and for some reason, I think she was looking for forgiveness. She must have been given forgive ness because they were truly excellent journals.I was coming due for a new journal when I ordered two from Amazon. When they arrived and looking at them I knew they wouldn't satisfy my writing style and big hands. The solution was to make them into our family vacation journals while searching for a suitable replacement for my wife's gift. That gift was coming to an end with only few pages left.After searching I decided on Life Handmade product. The journal arrived quickly and very well protected. It's a beautiful leather journal with a jewel on the front cover. The lined pages could be replaced with no lines but I understand some people love the lines. The front cover is beautifully designed.However, the one thing I would change in this product is that jewel on the cover. For those who need to practice their handwriting script, that jewel becomes a problem. That jewel isn't necessary because the design of the front cover is beautiful. It didn't take many lines of my writing before I found my Leatherman and removed the problem. I am not going for the over the top beauty of the front cover but to improve my writing and penmanship.Over all one of the better journals I purchased on Amazon.
