Carefully handmade using only the best quality full grain tough rustic cowhide leather, these personalized notebook covers are built to endure. As the journals are handled they will gain unique markings, making them even more personal and truly one of a kind. Each notebook cover is made to order and is personalized by hand in my small workshop. I make these from scratch.
FAQ's
Q: Is the blank paper suitable for fountain pens?
A: Yes! The paper is thick & of high quality. Bleed through and ghosting is very unlikely with pens including fountain, and most water based fineliner markers. Not for use with sharpies.
Q: Can I use watercolor paints in my notebook?
A: You can do light washes, if you don't mind some warping. Many of my customers do this & are happy with the results - but this is not meant to replace a watercolor pad.
Q: Is the lined paper narrow or wide ruled?
A: Narrow ruled to maximize paper use

LEATHER INFO:

Let customers speak for us
from 5463 reviewsI am in love with my journal cover. I chose the violet colour and it is aging so beautifully. I have 3 notebooks inside it and I could definitely squeeze in another if I wanted to. Alyssia was so wonderful to work with and her craftmanship is fantastic.
This is actually my second purchase. My first was an oxblood in A5 and I fell so in love with it I needed an A6 immediately.
I got the red with silver elastic. I purchased a small star for the side and a black and silver geode for the clasp. The leather is beautiful and soft but firm enough to feel sturdy. It comes with 4 elastic already and they also include extra bands in your color and in black.
Stunned as always by the quality for the price, even the box and bag it comes in feels luxury. I just know I'll be making another purchase soon as I'm slowly replacing the journals I have with these 😄
This is now my second time ordering from forest nine and as expected the quality is amazing! An issue had come up with my order but Alyssia was extremely fast to resolve it. I now have 3 leather journal covers and I couldn't recommend this business enough ☺️
The most stunning leather journal I am absolutely blown away!!!!
The quality on this journal cover is unreal!
My second journal and I wish I had a purpose for a third one just because I love them so much!
Love my new journal cover! It took a bit longer than expected to arrive but once delivered, I could not be happier!
I am delighted with my journal cover, the craftsmanship is of superior quality, I actually cried when I received it, I was so happy! Alyssia is a lovely person to communicate with and the personalisation and charm look beautiful. Also the packaging is incredible and it’s telling that a lot of love and care went into making and sending my cover. Thank you so much Alyssia! I will definitely be ordering again 😊
Absolutely beautiful books, arrived quickly, and the personalization came out perfect!
I ordered the B5 trifold cover and it's gorgeous. It's very difficult to find leather covers this size, so this is a true gem! I really appreciated all the little details that came with the cover: the handwritten note, extra elastics in different colours that match the cover, the dust bag, etc. And the customer service is above expectations. Very happy with this product and I highly recommend it!
Beautiful journal I'm really happy with the way mine turned out:)
Absolutely beautiful, incredible quality I can't stop looking at it, I'm excited everytime I get to pull out out. I especially love the double elastic closure which I have not seen anywhere else.
I originally asked for different color elastics when I ordered and asked to switch to gold and was accommodated, then she sent extras of the original color I requested anyway and extra gold which was so sweet.
I will say I love the agate charm add on but if you are trying to keep your leather pristine avoid it because it has scratched the cover a bit already, but I like the lived in look so I don't mind.
This product is incredible. It's well made, thought out, and overall just a 10/10. Alyssia knew I would be putting a hardcover journal in, and she put in elastics that would suit my needs best—something I didn't think to consider. I will be recommending others to buy from her store when the opportunity comes along.
This journal cover was more gorgeous than I could have ever imagined ! Exactly what I was hoping for. The seller was great!
So so beautiful, i am so pleased with this. I will be ordering another joirnal.
