Customer Reviews of Bookseed

Now in my 16th year, I am so grateful and humbled by the number of customers who take the time to post reviews on the website.

And to those who email  the stories of how my work has been used and received.  Really lovely!

I've gathered a few here for easy reading, and also because the reviews are linked to individual products, and they will sadly disappear, if and when items are discontinued.

Many thanks to you all!

Personalised Writing Paper Set

Product: Personalised Writing Paper Set
Posted By: Keryn

The set received far surpassed my expectations. My daughter wanted paper for her guests to write her and her husband a note at their upcoming wedding. She plans to make a book for a keepsake. This writing set is perfect for this.
Beautiful italic font on quality paper, with a personalised touch for their special day. Beverley was awesome to deal with and guaranteed delivery by the required date. I would absolutely purchase again and totally recommend Bookseed if you are looking for that personalised gift

 

Personalised writing paper set - stunning

I stumbled across Bookseed whilst searching for personalised writing paper for my good friend as a 'last' birthday gift. The paper is stunning, and comes beautifully packaged - the perfect gift!
My good friend has been using this paper to write farewell letters as he is unfortunately very very sick, and Beverley was super understanding and progressed my order accordingly. I have since come back to request more paper as my friend loves it so much and wants to write more letters whilst he can!!
An absolutely gorgeous gift and beautiful customer service. I'll be back for sure. Thank you!!

This was a third time order for me - I love the work that Beverley does. It feels so luxurious to open up my new journal and begin on a new page. And being able to pick a Liberty fabric is also a treat. If you are looking for a beautiful gift for a loved one or yourself you can't go wrong with a Bookseed Journal.

This is my second Journal from BOOKSEED / Beverley in just over a year. As with my first, the quality of the piece & skill used in its creation is superb. Beverley’s communication & options provided ensure an excellent product, exactly as envisaged.

Both the finished product, and the experience of engaging with Beverley, was just beautiful. These journals are such a treat - the care of the Bookseed Team is evident in every aspect of the journal that arrives into your hands. I particularly love the ability to bring Liberty fabrics into my written world. It is a joy to open the journal and commence whatever journey of literary flight emerges.

Extra Large Leather Desk Mat

Posted By: Wayne Bass
Aesthetics are important to me. Having the right 'feel' when I sit down to write something or read at my desk. There's something that hints at a simpler past with this desk mat. As it now sits around the fountain pens and old glass inkwells, it feels as if it's always been here. The touch and smell of real soft leather is something that can't be replicated. It's the real thing. It's classic and it's luxurious and we all deserve some of that in our lives. Welcome home.

This is a really classic, stylish desk mat, which fits perfectly on my husband's large desk. The leather is soft and excellent quality and it is finished nicely. He likes working on it, which easily fits his laptop and notepad. The service for my order was outstanding. I ordered the mat quite close to Christmas, not expecting it to be delivered in time for my husband's birthday on Boxing Day. Despite this, the order was packed, posted and arrived before Christmas, allowing me to give the mat to him as part of his birthday gift. Thank you so much for such exceptional service. I highly recommend Bookseed to others.

Posted By: Adrian Brown
Given this was a very short lead time for a handmade purchase (a special gift for wife's birthday prior to a sudden long term interstate assignment), Beverley was unfazed, gleefully took the order, assisted with fabric selection / embossing and dispatched the journal to arrive well within the required date.

The smell when you first open the package is something from a past era, the leather / fabric / stitching stunning in detail and the quality of paper so good, the recipient is now hesitant to put a mark on it.

It is said, after the virus, we should support local manufacturers and I am absolutely delighted to have done so for an excellent product and very fair price.

You know it's a good gift when you also want one too!

We'll be back!

The product arrived in no time, carefully packed and beautifully covered as if it was a gift. Upon opening, everyone remembers the smell of old leather, but nowadays there are hardly any leathers that exude this uniquely soothing scent. The soft, thin texture of the leather gives a lightweight feel and fits well on my desk. The traditional look and splendid quality of hand craftsmanship including the stitches show meticulous and fine attention to details that only an experienced artisan can create. I am very delighted to own this unique piece of treasure that I am sure will lasts for many years to come.

An Incredibly Sexy Journal

Product: Leather Journal A5 - Chesterfield Ruby
Posted By: Shea Belle

The most wonderful thing I've ever held in my hands. The leather is a stunning colour, and you can tell that its was made with an intense love and passion for creation. You will open your package and your knees will buckle at that intoxicating leather smell and you will definitely not feel worthy for such a masterpiece. Be prepared to never want to write on another surface again because this journal will spoil you. I wish the people I've dated were as beautiful as this journal.
Quotes from my household upon the unabashed parading of this journal around the house:
"Thats divine bro"
"Ohh pretty"
"Oh my god its so beautiful"
"Very Snazzy"
This journal is hands down the best thing I have ever bought myself. You're denying yourself one of the greatest hits of serotonin you could possibly experience if you don't have this journal.
Thank you so much for this journal. I love it and I love you.

My husband and I had been searching for an antique looking Family Tree Journal when we came across Bookseed. Beverley was so helpful and knew exactly what we wanted, even to the point of personalising. The finish on this product is superb! We had the pleasure of presenting our son for his 40th birthday, with this beautiful journal so he can now record his findings on his research into the family history. This journal will become a keepsake and handed down for generations to come! Thanks again Beverley

I bought this as a present for a friend, and she absolutely loves it. It's obvious that extreme care has gone into making it, every little detail speaks to the pride that Beverly takes in her work. It has also been very pleasant dealing with Beverly, not only did I have the journal in hand less than a week after ordering, she accommodated my specific requests regarding the packaging. 

I also opted for the embossing and personalised front page additions, which enhanced an already beautiful piece. 

I highly recommend anything from Bookseed, and I'll be sure to acquire more of Beverly's work in the future.

I ordered a Leather Notebook Cover as a birthday gift for a friend. The Cognac colour gave it very elegant and vintage look. My order was shipped out promptly and arrived within the expected delivery period. The item came neatly wrapped with a purple ribbon on top :). The leather was soft and flexible and it came in a practical size that fits most standard A5 notebooks. Bookseed is an excellent choice for quality artisanal leather goods with a personal touch, it offers a wide range of designs that are ideal for gifts. Highly recommended. 

 

A must buy!

Posted By: Paul

It is always nice to purchase something locally and the product surpasses your expectations. The leather feels supple, the stitching is near perfect and the look is fantastic. Leuchtturm 1917 notebooks are fantastic and the paper is first class unfortunately the covers are a little average. This handcrafted cover is a fantastic complement to my notebook and looks much better alongside my favourite fountain pens. 

A pleasant surprise was the way in which it was presented on arrival. All too often a seller throws an item in a post pack and sends it on its way. Not so with Beverly who personally adds a note to the package and has the item wrapped carefully and tied with ribbon.

Beverley promptly responded to my enquiry regarding a custom order and the final result is a sleek and professional black B5 leather cover. A very well-received gift. My husband loves the blind debossing detail too. Beverley was a delight to do business with - prompt initial response, great follow up communication and a very high quality final result. Will do business again. 

 

Beautiful Quality, great job.

Customised book cover

I was so fortunate to find Beverley. I had bought a Bible for my young nephews Confirmation present and although as special gift in itself, it lacked "keepers" quality. Having found Bookseed on an internet search, options were discussed with Beverley and I mailed the book to her so she could create a custom made cover. What was returned to me 2 weeks later was a beautiful hand made book in its new Antique oak cover with my nephews initials embossed on the cover. What has been created is a personalised keepsake of excellent quality which my nephew will be able to keep forever. I'm sure I could have bought a cover over the internet from China, but I gave the work to an Australian Artisan who obviously cares about her work and produce a very high quality product that I'm so happy to gift to my nephew. Thank you Beverley

Posted By: Rick Whelan

I was sick of carrying good quality books in my backpack and destroying them, so I searched around the net for some sort of covering and came across Bookseed. And so I got in contact via email. Beverley responded pretty much immediately and was happy to email to-and-fro till I was happy with the design dimensions. Within no time the bookwrap was delivered and I’ve been using it ever since; it remains in my backpack with whatever I’m currently reading nestled safely inside. I get asked about it regularly at work and at the coffee shops I frequent. I got the wrap made in ‘Antique Oak’ leather and it looks stunning. I was so impressed with it I had Beverley make an identical one for my Dad for Father’s Day and had it embossed with his initials. Now I’m trying to find an excuse to buy another one of some sort….. Actually I have to add that I am so glad to have gotten something custom made of great quality that hasn’t been made offshore from fake leather for $2, and it’s great to see an artisan tradition flourishing in our own backyard.

Hi Beverley 
I bought a cognac book wrap as a gift for my daughter 's 16th birthday. She absolutely loves it ! 
She is using it to hold a journal for writing song lyrics and music tabs for playing guitar and ukulele. 
It arrived so beautifully wrapped ..we gave it to her as you had wrapped it ... straight from your hands to hers. Thank you for such a beautiful and lovingly hand made product and the thoughtful packaging. 
thank you Allison

Posted By: Christine

I bought a journal as a wedding gift, uncertain about a bunch of things - number of pages, what to emboss on the cover, which type of leather to choose. From start to finish, Beverley was nothing but helpful. She responded quickly to all my emails (a most important factor when I kept changing my mind!) and even took the time to show me what my embossing choices would look like on the real thing. I'm incredibly happy with the final product. It's not just any book to write it; you can sense the care and time Beverley put into her work. Would definitely shop here again!

Very impressed with the book wrap that I received. The blind embossing (initials) is subtle adding to both the finish and uniqueness. I asked for a longer pen pocket to ensure pens etc... would not fall out and it wasn't a problem. Beverly kept me informed every step of the way and it was beautifully gift wrapped (loved the ribbon). Wrap will accommodate a variety of different sized notebooks/journals etc and am very happy to recommend to this product.

We received the journal today and we are so thrilled with it. We wanted something personal and useful that we could give to our son as he sets off on a 12 month travel overseas. This is the perfect gift! We personalised the front page with a message from home so he is always reminded of us and the journal itself is extremely practical and functional. He can store his passport and papers safely without taking up a lot of valuable space.

Along with this, the journal is handcrafted and great care has been taken to create a unique product.

We love it and highly recommend it - especially for a young man.

I have purchased 2 products and have had them both personalised. The cost was minimal, the service impeccable and the personalised page made an already beautiful gift absolutely perfect. I highly recommend this service, it is one you cannot pass up.

 

Very impressed with the quality


Product: Leather Journal A4 - Classic Brown
Posted By: Gail

I was so impressed with the quality and workmanship of the first A5 journal I purchased as a christmas gift that I purchased another in the A4 size as an 18th birthday gift which I had personalised on the front page. Beverly's customer service and attention to detail is the best I have come across in a very long time The postage cost and turnaround time is excellent and the journal is beautifully gift boxed. I highly recommend them as the perfect gift idea.

 

Great find!

I contacted Book Seed with an urgent request for my Dad's 60th birthday and Beverley responded without delay, expedited the proofs and got the book in the post and delivered within 2 business days. The quality is fantastic, and the finish is so unique, I'm so glad I found them!

Lovely


Product: Book Wrap - Ravishing Red with Red Hand Painted Detail

The wrap is lovely. It's soft, the colour is solid and the line of detailing is more lovelier than photos allow. If you are looking for a book wrap to guard your book or journal please consider this. I was worried about the colour, but this red is bright, but not unnatural, so I do recommend this one if you are looking for red.

I contacted Beverley a while ago so she could make me a nice journal for my wife as an anniversary gift. She was very pleasant to deal with over the phone and helped me choose the right options that I thought my wife would like. Beverley made us a wonderful A5 journal with, purple leather with really nice blue stitching. I also had her print a nice personal dedication to my wife on the first page. It also came in a nice gift box.

The book itself is nothing short of superb, the build quaility is amazing. This is truly one of the most beautiful books I've ever seen. When I gave it to my wife, she instantly loved it and it has since become one of her most treasured items. She uses it to record all of the important stories and times we share as a family.

We were both so impressed that it was hand made by Beverley we showed it off to all of our freinds and family. Beverley truly is a master of her trade, you can see the effort and pride she puts into her work. They really are unique pieces of art. I wouldn't hesitate to comission Beverley to make me another of her fantastic books in the future. Thanks for the memories.

Given this was a very short lead time for a handmade purchase (a special gift for wife's birthday prior to a sudden long term interstate assignment), Beverley was unfazed, gleefully took the order, assisted with fabric selection / embossing and dispatched the journal to arrive well within the required date.

The smell when you first open the package is something from a past era, the leather / fabric / stitching stunning in detail and the quality of paper so good, the recipient is now hesitant to put a mark on it.

It is said, after the virus, we should support local manufacturers and I am absolutely delighted to have done so for an excellent product and very fair price.

You know it's a good gift when you also want one too!

We'll be back!

I would like to thank you for care and attention to detail in getting this order completed and delivered on time! The wrap with the embossing looks fantastic, it was a gift for my son competing his year 12 studies, and suits his art sketch pad perfectly. I hope it is something he will keep forever. Thankyou for making this possible and delivered within 1 week for the specified day! Brilliant!
