Explore the wonder, trust your magic touch, and let your heart sing.

“Bird Song” Handmade Journal
"A bird doesn’t sing because it has an answer, it sings because it has a song." - Joan Walsh Anglund (also attributed to Maya Angelou) This unique journal is ready for your song. :) The handmade journal has several decorative paper pages (both scrapbooking papers and recycled papers are used) inside a sewn fabric journal cover. The journal also has a small pocket sewn into the front cover when it is being made. These are great for gratitude journals, quote collections, mini scrapbooks with pictures, guest books, poetry, funny things kids say, travel notes, bridal or baby shower notes, hopes, dreams, prayers, love letters to life and ourselves... so many lovely possibilities. I keep a guest book in our home and it's so fun to go back and read what visitors have said in the past. My kids and I use them for personal gratitude journals and quote collections. I also use one similar to this for Thanksgiving as a combination guest book and gratitude journal that can be easily taken with me to the celebration, whether at my home or elsewhere, so everyone can add what they are thankful for over the years. The journal measures approximately 4 x 6 inches. The paper pages are slightly smaller inside. I like the texture of ripped edges so the pages inside vary slightly and have some purposely torn edges. Please inquire for an international shipping estimate. I will gladly do so! Wild Wonderful Wishes to You, Julia
