Latest batch of Little Golden Book repurposed book journals. All contain the original story along with 50 blank pages for lists, sketching, memory keeping or guest book purposes.

Game card notebooks.
These are a project I stumbled upon to use up the strips of paper left over when I trim A4 pages to size for my larger repurposed book journals. I collect all types of cards from op shops - flash cards, board games, affirmation cards - and I match them up in size and bind them for tiny notebooks. I’m running low on wire coils at the moment so these ones are made from upcycled comb binding.

Lovely reviews from lovely customers. I have bird journals with either blank paper or in the ‘mixed paper’ junk journal format, but only one of each bird type as they’re from vintage books. See if I’ve still got your favourite bird available:

Paper drying.
Gorgeous winter sunshine is giving the opportunity to get a big batch of recycled paper made. This batch is greenish-grey - mostly post-consumer white papers with a couple of torn Woolies paper bags and some green paper scraps.

New batches of handmade paper available in my etsy shop. I’ve added an extra step to the process to get a smoother finish - after hanging them up to dry overnight, I roll them out to get rid of air bubbles and creases, then continue the drying process. Do this latest batch is best if you want a smoother writing or drawing surface. Mostly earthier colours in this batch, but some brights will come once we get more sunshine in our days!
