Wow, they've arrived! Announcing two fabulous new journals that will satisfy even the wordiest of writers! First up is The Thickest Journal In The World. We are pretty sure that this tome is currently simply THE thickest journal on the planet! We have bound it in fine Italian leather in the classic colours of aubergine, black and tan.
Our tan journal is our deluxe edition, expertly bound in antique hide, which is the highest quality of Italian hide leather with an aniline finish that allows the beauty of the natural grain of the leather to show.
Between the thick padded covers the journal has a massive block of 1020 pages of fine quality plain white 150gsm paper. Whether you use it to record the events of your daily life, explore your thoughts and feelings or for your creative writing, this is a journal that will not only last a lifetime but will build into an heirloom to pass through the generations. We have made sure that the paper is suitable for all pen types and have gift-boxed it for maximum security.
But isn't everyone blogging now? Well, actually there's still a place for the handwritten journal. You can let your creativity have free rein, forget about elegant sentences and perfect spelling and explore your emotions and private thoughts, your relationships and memories. Do you really want to share this with the world-wide web? I was interested to come across this blog last month, where Kat Collins, a keen US journaler, shares 100 Benefits of Journaling. She finishes with 'Captures Your Life Story', which is what we really had in mind when we created these huge volumes, but she also highlights writing a journal as a tool for personal growth, healing, self-knowledge and stress reduction.
Plain journals are great for those whose creative spirits flow freely, but some of us find it easier to write with a bit of structure. So we designed our 'Lifetime Journal' in the same thickness, 1020 pages, but with a framework for recording your whole life!
We conceived this journal as an companion to our best-selling 'A Wonderful Life' range. Each book in this range is bound in handsome red leather and the words ' A Wonderful Life' are foil blocked with a shimmering gold stamp effect.
The collection began with a guest book and a photo album in a choice of two sizes; they are great for milestone birthdays, anniversaries and even retirements.
But the journal is designed to record one's whole life and they make a unique and original gift for a newborn or Christening too!
We were so pleased with these sumptous 'Lifetime Journals' when the samples arrived last week! As well as the 'big red book' we've again opted for black and aubergine, foil-blocked in silver.
The antique hide tan version is perfect for the blind embossed version that we wanted.
So what's in this Lifetime Journal? The first page is laid out as a personal bookplate, followed by a page on which to record some personal details. There are pages for writing about your education and work lives, places you have visited and your achievements. There is even a world map on which to plot your travels. The journal then builds into a complete picture of your life year by year, starting at age 1! Each year has blank pages to fill with any memorable events and emotions that made an impact, and then, to make it easier to order your thoughts, we've added some pages of useful prompts such as places I've visited, people I've met, things I've achieved and things in the news.
As an introductory offer, we adding a FREE engraved nameplate to match your book and add that personal touch!
So get writing- there's a lifetime of memories to set down before you forget anything!
Update! Now available in black linen!
