I’ve had my eye on Bound Custom Journals for a while. The company was launched in 2011 after a successful Kickstarter campaign, inspired by founder Joel Sadler’s desire for a customized travel journal. The result is pretty extraordinary: a website where you can build custom notebooks page by page, with all manner of page templates … Continue reading Review: Bound Custom Journals
This week’s addict writes in detail about her love of notebooks and plans for using a new one: I have always been addicted to stationery, in particular notebooks and organisers. I can’t remember when or how the addiction started. Maybe it was since I was a little girl scribbling on my notebooks with “Dear Diary†entries. … Continue reading Notebook Addict of the Week: Miss Lai Lai
Now here’s a perfect holiday gift for a notebook addict, at least if they like Field Notes or similarly sized notebooks: I’ve always thought it would be nice to have some custom-made, perfectly-sized notebook storage.

An interesting side-by-side comparison of the Moleskine City notebook for Paris, vs. a Bound Custom Journal with Paris map pages. The writer admits he’s a bit biased as it’s on Bound’s own blog, but I think he did a very fair comparison of each notebook’s features. I haven’t tried a Bound journal yet, but I … Continue reading Moleskine Monday: A Comparison vs. the Bound Custom Journal
This week’s addict is a fellow Brooklyn resident who works as an editor and blogs at Brooklyn Arden. In a post about how she uses notebooks in her work life, she shares this photo of notebooks she’s used since 2001: As an editor, she says she has “a long, long list of priorities to juggle … Continue reading Notebook Addict of the Week: Cheryl
From yesterday’s New York Times Business section: PAPER still matters. The frequent whirring of printers in offices — despite the Internet, Microsoft Word, social media, scanners, smartphone apps and PDF files — attests to that. We may use less of it than we once did, but reading and writing on paper serves a function that, … Continue reading In Defense of Paper
… for me and my notebooks! I’ve been posting a little less frequently lately because I’ve been very busy preparing for a move to a new home. My notebooks, of course, are all coming with me, and I’ve been trying to organize them better in the process. For years, I’ve stored them all in shoeboxes, … Continue reading New Homes
