Yeah I haven't seen many who ended up getting the Yuge cover. That was part of the reason I wanted to make a video was to show it so others might see and be able to make a decision.
Thank you!! Everything is going very well! I do wish I had waited before placing my order instead of ordering from a few different places. Would have saved me a lot of money. Definitely take your time before committing!
Do you still use your Oberon Leather journal covers? I'm wondering if you got any new ones since the last video. Currently eyeing the Cat in Window but can't decide on the color or ordering it custom in Fern (seems risky esp. since I'm in Europe). Your comparison video was very useful. I hope a hobonichi A5 notebook will fit. Lovely haul!
I do! I have three that I rotate between, amongst my other non-Oberon covers. I've bought quite a few Oberons over the years, but ended up selling them all to just keep my current three: Da Vinci in chocolate (which I modded to have a closure band), Thistle in chocolate, and a Unicorn Icon journal cover in black/brown. I also own a small portfolio in the Thistle design in chocolate. I have owned quite a few Cat in Window covers, in black, purple, and brown, as well as a portfolio, but I ended up selling them because I just didn't use them as much as my other covers. It's a gorgeous cover, though. I think it would look quite pretty in their fern color. I'm not sure how it would work since you're in Europe if there was a problem, but Oberon Design has excellent customer service when I've needed it. I can tell you that a Hobonichi A5 notebook does fit their covers! A Cousin would fit great, one of their thinner A5 notebooks would fit of course but would be a bit looser. You know, maybe I will make a video of all my journal covers.
@@inkfade4281 Thank you for all the wonderful information. I'm quite surprised you ended up getting rid of your brown Cat in Window, as you were raving about it in your last video! I wouldn't have expected it. I envy you on having so many different Oberons and being able to switch it up like that. Sadly, when I went to check out, I saw that the shipping was 50 bucks for one and 60 bucks for two, which is very high. It would amount to around 270 bucks total for just two covers when all the import costs are added on top. So I will have to give up on owning them, sadly. I don't understand why shipping to NL is so high.
@@Raneshep Yeah, I was sad to see it go but over the past year or so I've really decluttered my stationery. I didn't want fifteen notebook covers lying around when I only use a handful of them. While I love the Cat in Window design, for some reason I just didn't reach for it as much as my others. Wow, that's insane shipping. I'm so sorry. There's actually a lot of Oberon Design products on eBay, maybe you might find something there with less crazy shipping.
@@inkfade4281 Yeah, I actually went hunting for some on eBay but sadly the sellers that have the ones I like refuse to ship outside of the US. It's rough, I've emailed Oberon to inquire if there's a cheaper way to ship even though I know it's probably futile. For some reason, this super bummed me out lol. But I genuinely can't find any good-looking alternatives to Oberon, which is kind of strange, you would think there would be a bigger market for embossed leather covers out there.
@@Raneshep If you haven't already, join the Oberon Design Facebook page, it's called "ODO FRIENDS." I know people post journal covers to sell there and know some are willing to ship internationally. Perhaps you'll be lucky there.
I love that cover - apparently, it’s the same fabric they use for kimonos and obis. You have a very elegant esthetic.
Yours is only the second video I’ve seen/found with that beautiful Yuge Fabric Farm Cover. I bought it and love it!

It’s so great to see you again!! I hope all is well! I still havent made my order yet. I keep taking items in an out of my cart. Lol.
Thank you!! Everything is going very well!

2:54 I missed that opportunity to buy the cover! But I did buy myself the pencil board last year.
Congrats on nursing school!🎉
Thanks so much!!! I'm nervous but excited.
Will you consider selling the clear pencil board. Great video
I think I will hold onto it for now, I have a feeling if I sold it I would find a use for it shortly after lol.

Seeing how you find the pen disgusting if you wanna get rid of it, let me know, orange is my favorite color so I find the pen to be gorgeous
