Custom Notebook Covers
I hand stitch leather and cork to make beautiful and functional custom notebook covers.
My custom covers fit A5 slim/TN standard inserts, and are approximately 3/8" wider than standard Travelers Notebooks, leaving a little extra wiggle room for those who really love to stuff their notebooks. They have two internal elastics. For other sizes and configurations, please contact me.
Covers from Scratch
Natural cork and white cork are available. Stitching and elastic can match your TN's color, or contrast it. Pocket options include three-card slip wallets, folio pockets, pen loops, and secretary pockets. Have a different pocket shape in mind? I can probably do it - shoot me a message!
Custom covers from scratch range from $60 to $90, plus shipping. Turnaround time is two to six weeks.
The beauty of the Travelers Notebook is its simplicity. Adding cork pockets to existing Travelers Notebooks brings function to your notebook without bulking it up, so you can keep traveling light. There are no zippers, snaps, or buttons in my pocket configurations. The notebook itself keeps the contents in place.
Modified Travelers Notebooks
Natural cork and white cork are available. Stitching can match your TN's color, or contrast it. Pocket options include three-card slip wallets, folio pockets, pen loops, and secretary pockets. Have a different pocket shape in mind? I can probably do it - shoot me a message!
TN modification costs between $40 and $60, plus shipping. Turnaround time is two weeks.
Fine Print & Policies
Guarantee:
All my custom work is done using a double length of waxed linen thread for durability. My stitching is guaranteed for life.
Bulk Orders:
I work in small batches, often using aftermarket leather that might never cross my workbench again. This makes every cover unique. Bulk orders are possible with advance planning - please message me to coordinate!
Oil Tan Leather:
Some of my pre-made or custom covers are oil tan leather (always marked as such). Please be advised that this leather may transfer oil onto other leather products if they are in contact for long periods.
Turnaround Time:
I am a one-woman studio, and I hand stitch every cover. Turnaround time for custom covers from scratch is 2 to 6 weeks, depending on complexity and sourcing materials. This does not include shipping time.
Shipping:
I ship USPS in the United States, and use various tracked services internationally. Please email me in advance to coordinated international shipping.
Payments:
Payments are processed via PayPal Goods & Services. This protects both parties. I do not accept other forms of payment. For custom notebooks, 50% of the total payment is due in advance.
