    The wallet canvas part is an amazing idea for people who use their art travelers journal for EVERYTHING... You diffidently made it completely functional for all day, everything use, just what us artist need in their art journal!

    What a wonderful gift for someone. I know a lot of writers, now I know what to give for Christmas this year.
    Wonderful and a fun video.
    Thank you

    • @darbinorvar

      I think these would make wonderful Christmas gifts too!

  • @joeobrien196

    You could mix pages for projects. Graph paper for plans. Lined pages for notes and unruled for design and sketched details.

    • @darbinorvar
      @darbinorvar  7 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Exactly! That's why I made different books.

    Thank you so much, I when to Micheals and had a 50% coupon. I bought the leather and string. Travelers note in under $9 dollars.

    I particularly enjoyed the canvas pocket element! Nice job!

    If you want more hinge like action you can put different sized washers in the embossing tool and make embossed lines along the binding. Put 2 lager diameter washers with a shorter one between. This way you get two lines on the first pass. Then one wheel rides in previous line so that the new line is parallel.

    I've been mesmerized by your videos and skills.
    I won't have the resources to get into woodworking/dyi crafts in the near future, but watching you is so relaxing!

  • @silverpromidi
    @silverpromidi 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I like the way you threaded the elastic, I have never seen it done that way before, and the addition of the inner canvas 'pockets' very good :)

  • @tessamae4477
    @tessamae4477 5 ปีที่แล้ว

    I like it!!! It's 'simple' ... and yet, "EXTRAVAGANT"!!! I have been " making " - ' INSERTS ' and TN - Covers, during these last few days, and to tell you, I have been "enjoying" it, to the expense, that, I even "created" my own business's "logo", yesterday!!! I have been watching Dyan Reaveley's and Jane Davenport's Mixed Media craftings and artworks, and is now "totally" entwined with them, that I make it a "habit" of 'drawing' & 'painting' " Whimsical - Faces" on my A5 - TN " Inserts " that I made myself!!! Waiting for Dyan Reaveley's Journalling Notebook for the First Time, I'm so "excited" to receive it, and start making "crafts" and "arts" with it! I also bought a 1,5 m x 1 meter , 200 gsm drawing paper, that I'm going to make a huge book for "crafting" with, aside from the Reaveley Book!I am in "what a planning"!!!! I wanna make a business with this, and call it my own "FIRST BUSINESS"!!!! I hope it will be fine .... Your "DIY" is really so good!!! TFS

      How do you process a deer hide? Can you suggest a book or some form of instruction please? I hunt deer and elk but have never saved the hide and would love to stop wasting the hides. Thank you for any help

  • @RowanWiccae

    I like that the leather cover is thinner and more flimsy than most packaged midori style journals that I see. Makes it more flexible to work with

  • @KayleyJG

  • @bluebat0714
    @bluebat0714 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Sounds like a winter project for me and possible Christmas gifts. ALSO: meant to mention this is in your painting video. Invest in a brush/roller spinner.

  • @Ryzomadman

    Like the idea of a book for keeping tracks of receipts and delivery noted etc rather than stuffed all over the place in different pockets.

    @PangBard 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Yep, I'd like to have specific secured places for the pen pencil and fountain pen as well as a place for small geometry instruments , ruler protractor.

    • @MFunkibut
      @MFunkibut 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You could probably whip one up out of additional leather and attach it one of two ways - either tuck it beneath the elastic and have it removable or rivet/contact cement for a permanent solution. Cause I was thinking the same thing; need a place for pencils etc.

    • @darbinorvar
      @darbinorvar  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I like that idea too - in my last leather notebook I added a pencil loop, however I really wanted to stick with simplicity here.

    • @reychop
      @reychop 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      You can do what she did with the fabric thing. Add a zipper to a long pocket and you can slip the pencil and some pens in there.

  • @Stinow
    @Stinow 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Looks really good! Nice and clean tutorial also. Idea for next booklets: put some nice stamps on the leather?

    Linn,
    thank you for this video.
    I've needed something like this for years, because I must have 15 composition books around the house for when I gather an idea. this notebook will be a great addition.
    that's a great looking doughnut By the way! I'm a Maple French Crueler kind of guy, however that looked real good.

    • @surajbhawal2474
      @surajbhawal2474 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Project ElectricEye that's the whole point of being a vegan. they are against every form of animal abuse. So, if they wear leather then they are the biggest hypocrites.

  • @francoisbelangerboisclair
    @francoisbelangerboisclair 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great but you should use a Speedy Stitcher sewing awl. It will do the job for the insert booklet but also for the fabric insert. it not as fast as a sewing machine but lot cheaper and can sew boat sail or leather. Got one to repair my leather sandal...

    • @aakritibagchi2663
      @aakritibagchi2663 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      You could probably just cut a little bit of elastic or a rectangle of leather and sew it to the side to make a pen loop
