Print Pattern Notebooks

For the longest time now, i've always been very proud of having such talented friend, who are good at what they do, and love what they do.

Geraldine here ( i call her cheng ), has been one of those poets friends of mine, who sometimes can go crazy in her thoughts, she has to filter them down onto books.

I concur with cheng, that we do need notebooks, (pls dont say iphones or BBs) , to "help contain your favourite quotes, awesome on-the-spot poems, or any sudden inspirational thoughts you get the urge to jot down. "

Thus, in line with that, she has decided to invest her time into sewing notebooks! And i meant, litereally sewing, handmade notebooks made from scratch.

All notebooks are A5 sized, with acid and lignin free covers, containing 50 sheets of pristine white unruled write-on paper, and coptic stitch bound. They are personally handcrafted and sewn very meticulously and almost perfectly together with much love, and are all one-of-a-kind because she does not repeat patterns. Each books costs $25 @ her blog Smells Like Paper

This papercraft notebook is titled :
Star-spangled Banner


Now cheng here, i will always remember as a friend who should get famous for creating her own font. Her handwriting is so amazingly consistent, its really a wonder. Look at that handwriting! Beautiful no?

The awesome thing about her blog is that she also does customization. She can draw and write whatever you want, which makes it such a perfect gift to give someone.

Other amazing works of hers include:

Animal Circus

&
Conversation Piece
She makes only one of each piece, so one would have to visit her blog frequently to see what she has designed! You can also visit her personal blog, filled with very very insightful, sometimes vulgar and explicit, but of course, very interesting reads to what goes on in her paranoid head. (:
