I've been proudly handcrafting custom journals and leather stationery since 2008.
Each piece is hand cut, folded, sewn, stitched and wrapped in my little studio and sent all over Australia and internationally.
I buy the hides, cut the leather, make the covers, hand fold the paper, stitch the books and do all the finishing touches myself. I also create the patterns so all the designs are my own.
My work is used in so many different situations. From baby births to end of life celebrations and many of the great milestone moments in between. To corporate work, film and television, Airbnb, small business and home office.
I'm constantly surprised and delighted by what a day in the studio brings. Some highlights include:
- a Log book for a young lone sailor on a round the world voyage
- a journal for a father donating a kidney to his son
- recreating a small journal similar to a grandfather's taken into war to be gifted to his grandson who had long admired this treasure
- the Last Post signing book for the Melbourne Shrine of Remembrance
- desk mats for the boardroom in Canberra for our Department of Defence
- a journal for a daughter capturing the life story of her dying father
- a commissioned piece for King Charles
- and many, many more wonderful treasured items with extraordinary stories
Thank you for supporting my work and enabling an artisan tradition to continue.
