notebooks

I made more. I got a new Japanese stapler specifically for miniature notebook making. I still think I need to streamline this process better..
All of them are generally mini, except for the solid coloured ones which are 5.5" books.. I've been encouraging friends to take them off my hands, I'm at 100 books now..

I was in a cleaning frenzy and emerged hours later with 11 new notebooks. I couldn't help it.

These are ~5.5" x 8.5" full bleed except for the blue. Does anybody want the magenta one? I have two....

I got this knock-off washi tape for my birthday and I found a good use for it! My notebooks are getting an upgrade! 

 

This book is a bit worn because I started using it right after I made it. And it's the first time I've made a 5.5 x 8.5 book! But this one is actually for sketching so I'm going to see how long I last until I buy myself a new moleskine.

P.S. I'm not sure what is the point of posting about this notebook making obsession of mine, but everyone has told me that it's both weird and impressive and worthy of sharing the number of notebooks I've made and kept in a shoebox over all these years.. so these posts are going to keep popping up every once in a while I guess.

Notebooks

I've given many of my notebooks away to classmates because I make way more than I can use. They are mostly wallet sized, but I have a few that are a bit bigger that won't fit in your pocket. When I see postcard sized print media or paint chips, this is the first thing that comes to mind. "What will it look like as a notebook?" And then proceed to crop it in my mind. So these are the ones I have left:

^These are two different colours.

^medium sized

^Transmediale,                                            ^KDDI studio
