Each cover is typed on my vintage typewriter, Dorothy, onto handmade cotton rag paper that has been made from recycled t-shirt industry waste. The soft, natural off-white paper has a beautifully textured feel - you can see the imprint of the woollen blankets that the sheets are pressed between. A beautiful deckled edge to the covers gives each notebook a touch of timeless imperfection.

Hand-stitched with strong linen thread and tied with a length of recycled silk sari ribbon, Inside, you’ll find thick recycled cartridge paper — perfect for writing, sketching, or playful creative exploration.

Details

Size: approx A5 with 60 pages

Materials: handmade cotton rag paper cover, recycled cartridge paper pages, linen thread binding, silk sari ribbon tie

Price: £20

How many words can I have?

The style of these books is better suited to one or two words. So that your text fits nicely above the ribbon - I also space the letters out more than Dorothy’s usual style which takes a little more room but I think it looks great.

Can I use a fountain pen or watercolours in it?

Absolutely - l use fountain paper on this paper every day. it doesn’t feather or bleed. you can use a wide range of artist media too, including marker and brush pens, charcoal, pencil and even a light wash of watercolour ( I wouldn’t soak it)

Size?

Available in 2 sizes, A5 and A6 with 60 pages of 140gsm recycled cartridge paper hand stitched inside a typed cover of handmade cotton paper that has been made from textile industry waste.

How long should the personalised text be?

Your notebook will be typed on a vintage typewriter which means that I can’t change the font size.

I can fit 28 characters per line including spaces. ( I may need to split some of your lines if they are over this but will always do it in a way that makes sense to the flow of the text)

1-4 lines looks great. I can fit more lines on, but it can tend to look cramped especially if they are all full 40 character lines.

If your text is a little long for this size then I also have a larger A5 and even A4 size available in my shop

If you have a really long message, consider having it typed inside the book instead. you can add extra text to by typed inside here
