Balinese Blue Journals

I love this journal! The fabric on the cover is beautiful and soft, with a little bit of padding inside. The binder mechanism opens and closes easily. It came with lined paper with a space to fill in a date at the top of each page. The paper doesn't handle wet inks well, but ballpoint pens and pencils are fine. The mechanism is a 6-ring A5 one with about 19 mm between rings and a 70mm gap in the middle. The inner diameter on the rings is about 19mm. I've been able to find refills that fit easily and make my own with an adjustable a5 6 hole punch.

These were gifts for my nieces - I ordered two sets. They always wonder what Aunt Mer got them for Christmas - because I always send them something from Novica! They started trying to figure out what the paper was made of and how... They grew curious about the people who made the journals and researched! It's safe to say, they were enchanted. Since Christmas, the older of the two uses one regularly as a journal and the other for creative writing. The younger one writes and draws in hers. My brother had to convince them to start using them - they both regarded them more as objects of art than journals! I'm glad they got past that, but it does speak volumes about the beauty of these journals.

My sister journals everything! I am always looking for pretty and special journals. This is it! She loves blue. The journal came gift wrapped. A work of art too! I got myself one in white. So, I can see the quality is superb. She will love it. She is very artistic and a nature gal. I am excited to give it to ger for her Birthday.
