Item details

I created this gorgeous journal because I believe your words are worth it!

The covers for this pretty hand bound journal were made using original cyanotype prints.

Both front and back covers feature Wiltshire wildflowers. There are Ox-Eye Daisies and poppies.

The cover prints were created using Rhesho paper, which is handmade in Bhutan using the traditional Himalayan floating mould method in which the pulp is poured onto the paper frame. The paper is sun dried on the frame. Made from the inner bark or bast fibre of de-nar, a Bhutanese variety of lokta, which is a sustainable and renewable resource.

It really soaked up the cyanotype chemicals, and I think these are the deepest blues I've ever achieved.

It doesn't really come across in the photograph ... how I wish I had "feelyphotography" ... but this is an incredibly tactile print.

I used some Gold ink and salt in the wet cyanotype developing process.

The inside covers are made using handmade Nepalese Lokta paper, in a gorgeous deep teal.

I used Coptic stitching to bind the book together. Coptic binding means that the book will lie completely flat when opened, which makes it perfect for journaling or sketching.

This gorgeous, floral journal would be the perfect gift for any woman … for her birthday, for Mother’s Day, or just because she deserves it!

I gift wrap all of my journals before I post them out. I'm always happy to post direct to the lucky recipient and will include a personal message from you, if you'd like me to. Just leave me a note with your order. What could be nicer than receiving a one of a kind gift through the post!

The book is stitched together with royal blue waxed Irish linen thread.

For this journal I have used cyanotype print spine wraps, which look beautiful when your book is standing on a shelf. This is not just a journal, it’s a work of art.

All of the cartridge paper for the pages is recycled, mostly from old paper cups, and it’s all hand torn or cut to size. The paper is 140gsm and because it is recycled, it has a slight texture, which makes it perfect for journaling or sketching. I always write with a fountain pen and the paper is wonderful for that.

This book is unique and made entirely by hand.

I offer all these perks with ALL of my hand bound journals ...

- free gift wrapping
- one of a kind
- eco-conscious gift
