About this Product
This beautiful cover was rescued from my mother's school text library, originally a 5.5” x 7.5” math book - you can see her beautiful signature on the inside front cover. Handmade papers grace the cover and inside you’ll find many embellished, stamped, stenciled, and folded pages. There are two bound-in signatures, each a set of 16 folded sheets for a total of 128 pages and plenty of journaling space. Included are tea-dyed and vintage pages, scrapbook and scrap papers, music, book, and magazine pages, pockets, tags, and clipped doo-dads. You will also find a birdhouse page charmer, designed to hang from the side of your book to mark an important or very special page. Your journal is finished off with a double-wrap of sari silk ribbon. All prepared and ready for you to journal on, my lovely.

Meet the Maker
The simple act of writing does something mysterious . . . it binds our ideas, events, stories & dreams to our minds & hearts. It secures our memories, even if we never revisit our words again.
Collecting the artifacts of our lives adds tangible beauty to our written words – letters & cards, ticket stubs, pressed flowers, first lock of hair & last hand-written list. They give us visual & emotional roadmaps of thoughts we capture & memories we cherish.
And since fancy books & lovely papers are the best for creating and collecting . . .
. . . I make them.
birdhouse journals are made from upcycled hard-cover books, scraps of fabric, envelopes, pretty, painted & found papers, clips, stamps, stickers & doo-dads … designed to be carried & used. They offer space to write, as well as to tape & glue our trinkets, pictures, mementos & doodles. They encourage writing, as well as stashing, stuffing, & keeping, whether you are light-hearted or serious-minded.
Find yours, my lovely… carry it always, fill it up & journal on.
