Notebook nerds unite! I've developed an obsession with collaging notebooks by upcycling vintage postage stamps into abstract landscapes but the notebook itself is just as important to me as the collage.

My new notebook design has an integral index page - just spend a minute or two numbering the pages, then instead of endlessly flipping through to find your important-but-randomly-placed notes, you'll be able to just refer to your index to quickly re-locate those elusive snippets.

There is also an any-year calendar printed inside the back cover for quick & easy reference if you want to check any dates, at a glance.

The cover-collage postage stamps are individually arranged & glued into place with an acid-free, xylene-free adhesive then coated with a matt sealant for extra protection. They still bear fragments of postmarks and other cancellation marks as a testament to their former active service with postal services around the world - a fascinating slice of history!

This is a custom-made item and cannot be returned unless faulty.

Please note that if your order is being posted outside mainland UK, you (or the recipient) may have to pay customs or VAT charges and a handling fee. The seller is not responsible for any charges or fees that may incur.

Simply packaged in a plain cellophane packet your handy pocket-sized notebook will be stampified into something utterly unique. No-one else will ever own a notebook quite like yours! Use for all your first class ideas, travel notes, urgent to-do lists, or keeping track of your penpal's addresses. Also makes a great gift for the philatelist, traveller or boho stylista!

The front cover is entirely covered with used postage stamps, then coated with a matt sealant for extra durability. The back cover will be numbered & signed.

Customised notebook with firm-but-flexible kraft cardstock cover, secure stapled binding, and grey fabric tape covering the outer spine. A6 size, approx. 10.5 x 14.8 cm - ideal for tucking into a pocket or throwing into a bag/purse for notes-on-the-go.
