Handmade Accordion Paper Lock Journal.
Journal size is: 6-1/2" x 6-3/8" (16.51cm x 16.1925cm)
Page size is: 6" x 6" (15.24cm x 15.24cm)
Four Signatures, 26 pages each.
"Sing the Blues"
Journal features a front flap that hides the front pages of the signatures. This flap will help contain larger pieces of paper or memories. Covers and flap feature a paper bag feel w/burnt bits of vintage encyclopedia, and paint chip samples from Behr. Interior pages are thick and vary in color. Most pages are 6"x6", but some are a bit smaller. This journal is unlined and hand bound using a static accordion method. This allows me to "lock" each signature in with a piece of paper. Technically, these pages can come out, but they are a bit tricky to reinstall.
Pages are recycled scrapbook papers. Some may have an image on them. none of them are lined. Every page has a white blank side and a printed side. Some prints are dark; white gel pens work well on those pages.
Journal also comes with a paper pocket band that can be used or removed. It can catch little bits of paper, or indicate where you are in your journal. It can also be flattened and used as a bookmark.
Inside of front cover features a library card, stamped with the date the book was completed. This card can be removed and/or used as a bookmark.
This is a great journal for someone wanting to try junk journaling, but would prefer to have a premade cover and signature set. Everything is paper, there are no threads. The spine has no glue. It would be a great blank book to start with. This is a unique journal, there are no others like it.
As always, products are handmade and imperfect.
