Have your own name, quote or title, typed on the front of one of these hand painted notebooks.

Dorothy, my vintage baby Hermes typewriter does the typing and I do the painting (I also ‘help’ Dorothy)

Everything is hand stitched together with strong linen thread.

They make a fantastic small gift, stocking filler or teacher present.

HOW IS IT MADE?

Your book is created entirely by hand. Each cover is individually painted, your chosen text is typed on my vintage Baby Hermes typewriter (her name is Dorothy), and then the whole book is hand-stitched together.

I’m Michaela, and I handle every step myself—from painting to stitching—so every journal is truly unique.

Your personalisation is typed on Dorothy, my vintage typewriter. The maximum text per size is:

A6 – Pocket Size

  • Up to 28 characters per line (including spaces)
  • Maximum 3 lines

ECO-CONSCIOUS

Creating sustainably is at the heart of what I do. Your order arrives beautifully presented in plastic-free packaging.
