June 18, 2015 by Rebecca Wagner 2 Comments

Hello, my name is Becki and I am Sherlock addict. OK, maybe that is not totally correct. I love Mr. Holmes in any incarnation...period.

DIY Traveler’s Notebook

June 10, 2015 by Rebecca Wagner 5 Comments

Can I say I have been kind of obsessed with the Midori Traveler's notebooks lately? All that beautiful leather in a rainbow of colors! But they are so expensive. A Dori can't be touched online for anywhere under $30 for the standard size. What is a notebook junkie crafter to do?  You all know … [Read more...]

These are Crimson Luxe top tabs in two versions: one with reinforced holes, one without.

The goal here is simple:
How well do they hold up when you pop them in, move them around, and reposition dividers as needed?

Early takeaway?
These aren’t meant to be shuffled around constantly like a disc planner. This is more of a place-them-with-intention, then let them live there situation.

I’m testing both versions to see what actually holds up in real use, not just what looks good in photos.
More notes once I’ve abused them a little more. 😏

White plastic coil, slim cardboard backing so it slides right into the pocket, and cardstock covers — personalized, not coated.

Alien cover = Monthly Deluxe (with lined pages in back).
Bookshelf cover = Weekly Horizontal Compact.

We did have to cut the deluxe notes section to keep everything on a smaller coil (so the weekly fits), but we’re still testing what else we can add… including a special feature I’m not spilling yet.

Trying to make this thing as functional as humanly possible — stay tuned. 👀✨

Our A5 Coach notebook is finally getting the glow-up she deserves, and we’re playing with different refill styles to see what fits, flips, and feels right inside that TikTok-famous cover.

This spiral beauty is one of the contenders — and yes, we’re this close to having the perfect setup. Stay tuned… it’s all coming together. ✨📚

Who else is ready to upgrade their Coach with something way more functional than the paper it came with?
