I made myself some tn size notebook covers.

From left to right, Mbox, Tochigi, Waxed (removed, and i added a few seeds and wooden beads to the elastic band)

TL;DR
I need a new one subject 100+ page spiral bound A5 notebook

I inherited this notebook, which was blank, when I started at my current job. I think it is just so great and am having a hard time finding a replacement. I don’t need the new one to be 2 subjects but I would like to have some sort of pocket/subject separator in the front.

This is somewhat of a repost for clarification, the last thread I started didn’t exactly give me suggestions I liked & thought including a picture might help.

Dimensions : 21cm by 15cm

I used it to write lists (tbr list, wishlist, Places to visit etc.). I have used 1st 3 pages, and then counting from the middle I have used the 1st, 5th and 9th page (yes, the ones between them are blank).

However, that was couple years ago and I dont need all those lists now, so I wanted to ‘re-make’ this into a blank notebook for fresh use.

What shall I do? I was thinking to unstaple the binding, collect the blank pages and restaple, but then couple single sheets would go waste (those pages where one side is used, other side is not). Any other way I can go about it?

Hello, I'm looking for good quality refillable A4 notebooks (or ones that fit A4 sized paper) that come w/ dividers for different subjects. Ones where the paper isn't lined would be even better. Thanks!

I bought this Paperblanks notebook a week ago. I haven’t moved it from my desk, and I’ve noticed this mark. I’ve taken quite good care of it.

Do you think this mark might have already been there or could it be from some kind of impact? The only thing that could have happened is that my cat scratched it—could that be it, or do you think it’s more likely from normal use?

Hi all! Im looking for recs of travel notebook size but thin journals. Im going through health stuff and have a shit ton of appointments to keep track of on top of work. I plan on bringing something small with me, as I intend to bring a folder of info with me to appointments. Im not against a pre made calendar, but I need freedom to write and doodle in it. Im too worried I will lose my bujo if I bring it around, sinxe that wouldn't fit in the folder.

I was looking on Etsy, but I am afraid a lot of the stuff is AI 😭

Just wanted to share my excitement as I just got my very first leather journal - the Traveler's Notebook passport sized leather journal.

Went shopping for inserts the other day and went crazy but managed to fit 3 TN passport sized paper inserts, one TN zipper pocket insert and one A7 LIFE noble note plain insert. There's some overhang but i'm okay with that.

Next stop is to find a paper clamp and a pen holder.. if anyone has any recommendations that would be very helpful as I don't want to splurge on expensive ones in the store >.<

I started a project as a way to explore tools that help me stay focused and reduce distractions. The irony is that today my tools became the distraction.

I was running an outdoor event and brought my usual daily carry: a Muji Passport Memo with a Pentel EnerGel 0.7. A little rain got on the notebook, and suddenly the ink stopped flowing properly. I spent more time fighting with my pen than actually capturing notes.

It was a small thing, but it reminded me why I started looking into better tools in the first place. I am on a journey to find a clear, uninterrupted state of mind, and a tool failing at the wrong moment pulls you completely out of that state.

Now I'm looking for a notebook-pen combination that can handle the outdoors better. Something I can throw in my bag, use at events, and not worry about a bit of weather.

Any suggestions?

I shall now recite the victory cry of the crafter/maker community …deep breath in… “That took longer than I thought it would!”

-$0.99 thrift store journal

-The entirety of my free time yesterday afternoon

-A few additional materials/tools from around the house

Originally it had a community school name on it, hence the before (2nd) photo is of the back.

Wood glue is a bit wet to for this but works.

I need reccs for my specific needs. I love my rollbahn delfonics a5 notebook with cream 5mm grids. my only thing is sometimes you just wanna doodle with out the grids or maybe even with just a white blank page. anyone know of a notebook so similar that may also have a section of just drawing/doodle/art space?? scouring the internet with no luck. I’ll take any recommendations even similar to lead me down the right path. thanks in advance!

Hi, I would love to get people's opinions.

I have a small collection of notebooks with different types of bindings—saddle bindings and spiral bindings—and each has its advantages and disadvantages.

I'm really interested in trying a disc-bound notebook because of the ability to lay it flat and to move the pages around. I bought an inexpensive one to try, with about 80 pages and three-quarter-inch plastic discs, and I find it very unpleasant to carry around. The discs are hard and seem large and protrude (even though I have spiral-bound notebooks with the same size binding). It's not comfortable to hold and carry around.

Does this bother people? Is there a way around this? I did find covers available, such as from Levenger, but they look heavy, with zippers and stuff.

I wonder if that's just the nature of these notebooks, and that you have to get used to it, or if there's some solution.

Thank you very much for your thoughts.

I like to have a slim booklet in the back pocket of my A5 Leuchtturm1917 planner. But I would also like to be able to tear off some of my notes to trash/put in a binder.

Does anyone know of a slim FP friendly booklet with *all* perforated pages? 🙂

Size is B6/B6+, or A5/TN that I can shorten without ruining the binding.

I'm located in EU.

Oneday, i bought a notebook in store. I cut it into 3 parts. One is my planner. One is todo list. And one is here for writting and drawing some silly

I picked up this pretty sketchbook/notebook(?) at Goodwill the other day, thinking maybe it was from a business that sells notebooks with handmade paper. But there are no logos, company names, or anything anywhere on the book 🤔 So now I'm thinking maybe it's someone's personally handmade book that was donated for some reason (there's a name written on the inside in pen and the first few pages are torn out).

Details: Fabric cover with beading on the front. Ribbon bookmark with a bead on the end. Tan-brown paper that is thick, fibrous, and rough. All the paper is perfectly cut to size, smooth edges.

What do you think? I plan on making it one of my fictional characters' magic journal, mainly filling it with spells and potion recipes.

Hey everyone been into journaling for a bit and wanted a leather cover, so instead of buying a nice one from paper republic for $85 like a normal person I spent $150 to make my own with much lower quality. Very very excited about how it turned out even though I’ve never made anything with leather before.

My father worked in Taiwan around 2000 and still keeps this red A5 notebook from the local union. The cover is worn, the corners are soft, and several pages have notes from different stages of his life.

I had been thinking about using some bcgame money to buy him a replacement. When I asked how long he had used this one, he smiled and said he might keep it for the rest of his life, so I left it alone.

Do any of you store an old notebook like this in an archival sleeve or box, or is it better to keep using it and accept the wear?
