from secret leaves
I'm so excited about these! They just came in and they are really so wonderful. I think they'd make the most extraordinary gifts. I can't remember when I've been this excited about a new product at Inspire Co.
There are three different types of books, all handmade by Secret Leaves in St. Louis, Missouri.
The first in the series is an incredibly unique photo album with black pages. The covers are so elegant, made from music books. The albums are decorated with ribbon and a wonderful vintage button or jewel. They will arrive to you with a tin of photo corners and a white pen...all you'll need to do is collect your photos and inscribe little notes. Wouldn't this make an incredible wedding gift?
The second type is a scrap journal. The pages are made up of all sorts of fabulous old papers including maps, envelopes, old letters, and more. All vintage and original. Just imagine how much fun (and how easy it would be) to tuck in your own treasures, photos, and mementos!
And lastly, we have books that are made from old book covers, rebound with loose papers, to make a fabulous and inviting journal. There are two versions of this journal. One is made with bright colored book covers from the 40s and 50s. The other is made from very old book covers rescued by Sharon and Ann at Secret Leaves.
I'll put them in the store early next week. Stay tuned. But, if you can't wait until then, shoot me an email and I'll give you pricing information, etc.

This is absolutely stunning...love them all
They're all wonderful! I've been occasionally making ringed scrap journals over the last three years for sale on my website. They're very popular.
I'm sure you'll sell out!

These are fantastic. I love the scrap journals. Especially the Red Moth one. Alas, it is gone already.
Words cannot express how gorgeous these albums and journals are.
The ringed journals are truly works of art!
