I purchased the "Dusky Pink Little Lady", she has made the trip to Arkansas, United States...Rec'd it today, Christmas in June...!! Can't put it down, examining over and over, she is so lovely...You can see Sara Lee puts her heart into making these, they are just action packed with imagination, creativeness and pure joy in putting them together, what a skill. It will be my favorite toy to just sit and look through and be inspired from, am motivated to do some creating too. SOOO CONTENTED WITH "DUSKY PINK"!!

Aaaw thank you, sometimes I wonder if the new owner would want personal family photos of the maker, but my journals are me, and made from the heart, and I guess all old photos are someone's personal photos!

The glory of this journal leaves me speechless. And the world 'glorious' is the right word. Sara-Lee, you take heirloom journal making to a new high. Regarding the 1941 letter written on the super thin paper: I think it might have been called 'onion-skin' because of its thinness. It was used during World Ward II for correspondence as it was very light in weight and therefore it was more economical to mail, particularly air-mail, than regular stationary. Thanks for the beautiful journal views.

Aaw thank you 🥰 and hi back from New Zealand 😊👋

If you are wondering, the handwritten letter is on onion skin. In the middle 20th century airmail was expensive and postage was charged by weight. Onion skin was used for carbon copies of typewritten correspondence and so was readily available, it’s likely the writer wanted to save on costs.
