The wallet canvas part is an amazing idea for people who use their art travelers journal for EVERYTHING... You diffidently made it completely functional for all day, everything use, just what us artist need in their art journal!

I've been mesmerized by your videos and skills. I won't have the resources to get into woodworking/dyi crafts in the near future, but watching you is so relaxing!

What a wonderful gift for someone. I know a lot of writers, now I know what to give for Christmas this year. Wonderful and a fun video. Thank you

I think these would make wonderful Christmas gifts too!

Great project and video, I liked the leatherwork, book binding and sewing.

I particularly enjoyed the canvas pocket element! Nice job!

I LOVE this idea! thank you for sharing. I think I'll make some as Christmas gifts this year!

I love the way you stitched your notebook. I will be trying this. Thnx for inspiring.

I like the way you threaded the elastic, I have never seen it done that way before, and the addition of the inner canvas 'pockets' very good :)

what a fantastic gift idea. Thanks for sharing Lynn.

These notebooks are gorgeous ! Congrats Linn 🙂

This is the first time I've seen your channel, and I just subscribed. I love this notebook! Am putting this on my Christmas list! Looking forward to watching all of your other videos. These look like really cool projects. Thanks for sharing this!

I can't get enough of your videos can't wait for any new ones

Great DIY. Very Informative. Great Instructions. I like that you not only made the travelers notebook, but also the paper inserts. Thank You for taking the time to make this video. Good things to you.

If you want more hinge like action you can put different sized washers in the embossing tool and make embossed lines along the binding. Put 2 lager diameter washers with a shorter one between. This way you get two lines on the first pass. Then one wheel rides in previous line so that the new line is parallel.

Awesome job! How can someone be that beautiful and smart at the same time???!!! Love the projects! Keep it up...

we love your work and your way to show it! congrats!

Nice job Lynn, another good project.

I love this so much! Definitely going to make one myself! Thank you so much for sharing!

Thank you so much for this idea! I love it ! You explain that perfectly and I did all by myself too!

Superb as usual. As a notebook lover I will definitely try this!

brilliant Lynn. I think I may over think this stuff.. you make it look easy.

Thank you so much, I when to Micheals and had a 50% coupon. I bought the leather and string. Travelers note in under $9 dollars.

Thank you, I really like the idea of using canvas for the insets. Great ideas and video.

Incredible and so simple! A must try

Love it! Nice job Lynn! I like how the paper note books come together. They look great!

beautiful book! great job!

You inspired me to make a similar leather journal. It's pretty sweet.

Great directions, I really like the pocket insert!

Very nice work, they all turned out beautiful, I think my favorite is the brown leather 🤓👍🏼

Really nice work Linn! ....I have that same utility knife, I will never get another one unless it has that quick change blade feature.

Like this alot, just simple and practicle. good job!

Diresta inspiration for leather work ? Love it ! Keep going !

very nice work, your channel is such an inspiration. thank you for sharing!

Linn, thank you for this video. I've needed something like this for years, because I must have 15 composition books around the house for when I gather an idea. this notebook will be a great addition. that's a great looking doughnut By the way! I'm a Maple French Crueler kind of guy, however that looked real good.

Wow ! That looked amaizing really now i want one!

hi Lynn I like the books & am also interested in your other projects too great job and have a great day

This is a good idea. I appreciate your efforts

Really appreciated your presentation and ideas. I subscribed.

Perfect timing. I have a deer hide salted and getting ready to turn it into leather. This is what I will make; Books for my grand kids

Looks really good! Nice and clean tutorial also. Idea for next booklets: put some nice stamps on the leather?

One of my favourites! thank you!

I like it!!! It's 'simple' ... and yet, "EXTRAVAGANT"!!! I have been " making " - ' INSERTS ' and TN - Covers, during these last few days, and to tell you, I have been "enjoying" it, to the expense, that, I even "created" my own business's "logo", yesterday!!! I have been watching Dyan Reaveley's and Jane Davenport's Mixed Media craftings and artworks, and is now "totally" entwined with them, that I make it a "habit" of 'drawing' & 'painting' " Whimsical - Faces" on my A5 - TN " Inserts " that I made myself!!! Waiting for Dyan Reaveley's Journalling Notebook for the First Time, I'm so "excited" to receive it, and start making "crafts" and "arts" with it! I also bought a 1,5 m x 1 meter , 200 gsm drawing paper, that I'm going to make a huge book for "crafting" with, aside from the Reaveley Book!I am in "what a planning"!!!! I wanna make a business with this, and call it my own "FIRST BUSINESS"!!!! I hope it will be fine .... Your "DIY" is really so good!!! TFS

I like that the leather cover is thinner and more flimsy than most packaged midori style journals that I see. Makes it more flexible to work with

Absolutely love your video!!!!! Mahalo for posting!!

You could mix pages for projects. Graph paper for plans. Lined pages for notes and unruled for design and sketched details.

Exactly! That's why I made different books.

Really good idea! and so well explained! thanks!!!

Sounds like a winter project for me and possible Christmas gifts. ALSO: meant to mention this is in your painting video. Invest in a brush/roller spinner.

I just saw your video n Tfs, your books r awesome n you've explained very well 🤓🤗

I really like the simplicity of these, yet so handy!! Keep up the great videos!

I couldn't find a 365 paper journal so I decided to make this..can't wait!

Adorei!!! Obrigada por compartilhar teu conhecimento. 😍

I love thissss! I need one of this!!

Like the idea of a book for keeping tracks of receipts and delivery noted etc rather than stuffed all over the place in different pockets.

Tried and True is owned by some of the nicest humans on the planet. Funny enough I'm working on a coffee specific set of Midori journals! Cheers!

Do you have any recommendations as to where to buy the leather online? Thanks. Love your tutorials.

Thank you☺️👍🏻its perfect and easy👌

. Hi, very nice midori, I'm pending to make one with polipiel and you gave me a good idea, greetings from Spain

Hey, I really love this video you just posted because I’m creating notebooks myself. But I’m so curious what is that donut or that treat that you were eating?

great idea.... was wondering if you thought of making your own paper ... also think could be modified to be a tablet holder.

great work!!

Brilliant video thank you

I was checking anime haul and somehow ended here. Think I need to buy some leather.

Hi. Love this idea and really want to give it a go. What are the dimensions you cut the leather to?And also the 5 holes, what are the specific measurement for these? The middle one I get (it's in the middle) but the other 4?

This is very nice!

BRILLIANT!

Wonderful!

I love your craftswomanship!have you ever messed with a wood burner on leather it really cool.i used to go to our local flea market and get leather scraps cheap .ive made some small knife sheaths and keychains with the leather and burned the edges and right whatever you want on them it permanently burnt.thanks for sharing. stay safe

amazing!!! thank you!!!

genial su trabajo, felicitaciones

Hey Lynn! Great video. I noticed the opening music is on that Clickspring uses in his videos. Are you a fan of his too? I'd love to see you get into some metal shop work.

nice work! was wondering if you could maka pocket for a pencil?

These are beautiful. I have some metal alphabet "stamps". They would be great to personalize these. Thanks for the great tutorial.

As usual very nice handiwork Linn, But there was one thing you didn’t mention… Mmm that goodiegoodiething on the table, an exploded donut or….

Mmmmm that Blackwing 344 doe.

is there a specific template you used to make the lined paper and/or does anyone know what the "standard" spacing is if i make it with a spreadsheet style program

Yep, I'd like to have specific secured places for the pen pencil and fountain pen as well as a place for small geometry instruments , ruler protractor.

You could probably whip one up out of additional leather and attach it one of two ways - either tuck it beneath the elastic and have it removable or rivet/contact cement for a permanent solution. Cause I was thinking the same thing; need a place for pencils etc.

I like that idea too - in my last leather notebook I added a pencil loop, however I really wanted to stick with simplicity here.

You can do what she did with the fabric thing. Add a zipper to a long pocket and you can slip the pencil and some pens in there.

Looks great. I never leave home without a notebook.

Great but you should use a Speedy Stitcher sewing awl. It will do the job for the insert booklet but also for the fabric insert. it not as fast as a sewing machine but lot cheaper and can sew boat sail or leather. Got one to repair my leather sandal...

Nice! You took an ordinary object and made it into a beautiful ordinary object. Now I need one, lol! I may even start writing again...

I liked the video,the creativity so i subscribed tnx Ab👍😀😀keep uploading such videos
