making my journal ecosystem from scratch 📚 diy leather cover and notebook inserts

sharing my project notes here ♡ https://payhip.com/damarischua One of my new year's resolutions is to be consistent at journaling and writing. I decided to try to DIY a Traveler's Notebook style setup in a Louise Carmen/Paper Republic inspired journal cover. I've always wanted to give leatherwork a try, so this project was also the perfect "excuse" for attempting a new medium! { resources } I referenced these videos a lot while making my journal. If you're planning to make your own, they may be helpful to you too!
