Frequently Asked Questions
Custom and personalized orders
Yes, we love making custom pieces tailored just for you! Because we craft every journal to order in our workshop, we are always happy to personalize your book. You can add embroidered names, initials, or special dates, adjust thread or leather colors, mix lined and blank paper inserts, or pick your favorite elastic cord and charms. Have a completely bespoke design or special size in mind? Send us a message with your idea or reference photo before ordering. We respond within a few hours and are happy to share a preview photo once finished so you feel completely confident in your order.
Sizing details
Each listing includes a visual size chart with exact measurements, as dimensions vary slightly between our embroidered linen hardcovers and refillable leather journals. Our three most popular sizes are A5 (210 x 148 mm or 8.3 x 5.8 in) for daily writing and guest books, Narrow (220 x 120 mm or 8.7 x 4.7 in) for classic travel journaling, and A6 (148 x 105 mm or 5.8 x 4.1 in) for carrying in a small bag. If you need a custom dimension to fit your favorite planner or notebook insert, just message us and we will happily make it to your exact measurements.
Care instructions
Our journals are built for years of everyday use with simple care. For hand embroidered linen covers, spot clean gently using a soft, slightly damp cloth with mild soap if needed, and let the fabric air dry away from direct sunlight. Avoid machine washing or submerging the book in water, and slip it into a pouch when carrying sharp items like keys in your bag so threads do not snag. For leather covers, wipe dust away with a dry soft cloth and apply a tiny amount of natural leather balm occasionally to keep the leather supple.
Gift wrapping and packaging
Every order is packed with great care so it arrives safely from our workshop in Vietnam and feels special to open. Your journal is wrapped neatly inside protective layers, ready to give straight to someone you love. If you are sending an order directly to a gift recipient, we never include pricing inside the parcel. We are also happy to include a handwritten gift note at no extra cost! Simply type your personal message in the checkout note box or send it to us via Etsy messages right after ordering.
Wholesale availability
Yes, we gladly welcome bulk, event, and wholesale orders! Because we run our own workshop with a dedicated team of embroiderers and bookbinders, we can customize larger quantities for wedding parties, corporate gifts, retreats, and independent boutiques. We can embroider individual names, company logos, or custom motifs across matching sets and offer tiered pricing based on quantity. Please message us with your desired item, quantity, customization details, and target delivery date so we can prepare a tailored quote and timeline for you.
Can I see a preview of my custom order before it ships?
Absolutely! We want you to love every detail of your piece. When you request custom embroidery, personalized text, or a special combination of leather, elastic cord, and charms, we are always happy to send you a photo of your finished journal via Etsy messages before shipping. Just let us know in your order notes or message us anytime, and our team will keep you updated directly from our workbench.
Can I mix paper types or choose my own elastic cord and charms?
Yes, you can! You do not have to stick to just one paper style. For our refillable journals that include 3 paper inserts, you are welcome to mix white lined, white blank, kraft lined, and kraft blank inserts however you like at no extra cost. You can also request your preferred elastic cord color or specific charms. Simply leave your preferences in the personalization box at checkout or send us a quick message!
How long do custom orders take, and can you meet a specific event date?
Every piece is handmade to order in our workshop, and current delivery estimates are shown clearly on each listing page. Because custom embroidery and hand bookbinding take careful time, please share your event date with us if you are ordering for a wedding, birthday, or upcoming trip. Message us before purchasing with your target date and destination country, and we will confirm right away how quickly we can craft and ship it to you.
