Mix Journal
Item: Mixed Paper Journal Sketchbook
Seller: leahmackindotcom
Found this awesome Etsy journal / sketchbook on my Etsy search and fell in love! The journal is selling for $28.00 at the leahmackindotcom’s shop. It measures 6 inches x 4 inches and is 1 1/2 inches thick.
Here’s the best part of this journal -
It has a variety of paper between the covers! I love that!
The seller lists a few kinds of paper that are inside the journal in the listing on Etsy.com:
- lined notebook paper
- cream writing paper
- light blue writing paper
- white sketch paper
- offset press run-offs
- textbook pages
- genko yoshi paper (Japanese character writing paper)
- neon copy paper
- salmon pink writing paper
- mint green copy paper
- music note pages
What a great idea! I always feel really limited by most of the journals I come across. I think it’s awesome that this journal / sketchbook has tons of options!
This Etsy journal has 160 pages. The journal also includes four white envelopes bound throughout text block. Loving this idea too! This is the best journal ever!!

I’m a journal junkie.
I WANT IT O.O Lol
I’m going to go favorite it right now!
I love that binding technique… i don’t think i have seen that one. I wonder how it is done and if it has a name.
Hi!
Glad you like it, Kayla!
CJ – The binding method is a variant of the Button Hole Stitch. If you Google that phrase with the term bookbinding, you will get quite a number of hits of examples of this method. Typically, portions of the spine are left exposed an the signatures are visible. My favorite example of this binding is in a tutorial video, of sorts… http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V11ztKgKk6g enjoy!
Thanks again for the feature, Jackie.
