Charming flea market journal

I love and collect paper, in all sorts of configurations, especially as journals - from the most elementary newsprint ones that dazzle with their simplicity - to ones with poetry written around the edges or beautifully edged with gold leaf. Usually a few pages are filled with thoughts and sketches, sometimes they are never touched, and others get filled to overflowing. This one, spotted in a flea market is sooo wonderful sooo I wanted to share.

I too, collect journals especially for my craft notes. I buy them whenever I see a special one and have received some extraordinary journal books as gifts as well. I keep them on a shelf waiting in the wings until I am ready to begin a new one and carefully choose among my collection.
