Dressed in espresso-brown reclaimed leather, my coat has a rich sense of age about it. Treatment with a protective polish has brought its true beauty to the fore. Embellished on my cover flap is a delicious verdigris patina ornate brass dragonfly which has been stitched into my coat with dark rust linen thread.
Open me up and you’ll fine I begin with a beautiful hand antiqued Ex Libris bookplate for your own personal introduction. To follow, I am filled with 140 sheets (280 pages) of hand-torn archive text paper to let your words take flight.
Archive Text is a high quality paper with a short grain & slight cream color, which has been classified as a permanent long life paper as defined in the American National Standard. Each piece has been stained with tea by hand for an olde worldly appearance which adds a unique dimension to my distinctive persona. My pages have been stitched into my coat with dark rust coloured thread, allowing me to lay flat when in use for accessibility & writing ease.
When you are not using me, I'll keep your creations safe with my double leather wrap tie, which simply tucks in on my back with two vintage wooden beads - one red, one green.
Measuring 3 ½ x 6 ¼ inches, I’m a fine journal for urban or country travel – but also quite enjoy sleeping under pillows & bedside drawers.
A double page spread in my journal, ready for some journaling. Images by Nancy Baumiller and Cassi's Creations. See more here:
I'm reading Mitch Albom's "have a little faith." The reading is going as slowly as possible because I don't want it to end. (Refer to previous post re ending-issues.) I was particularly touched by page 102 and so that was what I wanted to write in my journal today.
(Loved "the five people you meet in heaven" too, but haven't yet read "tuesdays with morrie.")

Anyway, it's a wallpaper from fiftyfootshadows.net, and the font is Journal (available from dafont.). The quote and the clock are Conky; the quote is pulled off tinybuddha.com using curl, and the clock/rings are a special Lua script I wrote.
Included in the rings are:
+ Hours, minutes, seconds,
+ cpu1 & cpu2 usage, and a total
+ memory usage
+ battery charge (for my netbook)
+ day of the month and month of the year
+ used file system space
It's all totally customisable!!! You can get the script over at Conky Hardcore! conky.linux-hardcore.com/?page_id=2880

make it a statement about something I know with certainty - that guides my decisions and shapes my life. An easy one for me - how lucky I am!

Learned how to make this journal in Mary Ann Moss' "Full-Tilt Boogie" class. It uses the inside of an antique cabinet card photo album.

This is a journal cover I made featuring an image of the Eiffel Tower. This is something I woke up with in my head, and I had so much fun pulling odds and ends out of my stash to make it! It has a pocket in the front cover to hold your pen, a ribbon bookmark, and it latches with a jewlry clasp. It covers a regular composition notebook.
