Secret Garden: Three Mini Journals Diary – August 19, 2014

These are mostly blank, small journals with the pages stitched in.The coloring is restricted to the cover, and a faceplate; the rest is blank. They are a great size for slipping into one's purse to take occasional notes, especially if you do not expect to remove pages.The coloring is very intricate. Sharpen your pencils! You will need very fine points. I recommend an electric sharpener to do the heavy work, and a hand-held one like the "Twist 'n' Sharp" for the final, perfect points.While the cover material takes color pretty well, it's oddly nubbly so is hard to get a solid coat of color; there will likely be a few white dots. That does not detract from the all-over effect, though.I think these look handy, and the covers are fun to color. and at only around $2.50 each, they're affordable.

These journals are just what I wanted: beautiful and easy to carry around!These are pocket sized notebooks so beware for those expecting medium sized journals or coloring books. They remind me of a pocket sized moleskine but slightly larger in width and with blank paper.Not only are the covers beautiful but the paper quality is great. As a lover of gel pens I am very picky about my notebooks and I can say these notebooks are a pleasure to write in. They are easy to carry around and no bleed through at all when it comes to writing. Will definitely be purchasing these again and might even go for the larger sized journal because I love these small ones so much. Recommend these to anyone looking for small notebooks they would like to gift to book loving friends, or simply have something to toss in their bag and scribble in when they have a bit of free time.

These seem to be smaller than the size listed in the description. When I purchased the description said: Product Dimensions: 7.2 x 0.8 x 5.8 inches. However, these can't be more than maybe 3X5 inches when closed. Perhaps the dimension noted is for when the book is fully opened, and not just the size of one page? I was hoping to use them to take notes at work, but these would be better suited for my purse - for when the kids get antsy in a restaurant to doodle in, or for taking down a quick phone number or shopping reminder.Super cute, though! Just thought they were bigger.

Stunning, stunning, stunning. I bought these as a gift for my mom and they are the perfect size, and paper quality - they have a very precious feel about them, perfect for recording your deepest thoughts, or doodling you heart's desires. I would give products by this artist a million stars if I could!

just need a little something fun to add to my hording lol pages a blank so they will be great for practicing doodles. super cute pocket size so you can take it with you anywhere

While they are very cute and I really do like them, they are TINY! Must not have paid much attention to the size measurements, I just figured they would be similar size to a moleskin journal. They are almost too small to use them for the intended purpose but they are just so cute I'll probably figure something else to do with them! Again, if you are thinking they are going to be a little bit smaller than an average journal or book you will be disappointed they are about the size of one of those tiny pocket sized notebooks or a large post-it note.

every one of us should keep a journal....NOT a diary, but a journal. Look it up if you must, but I promise you that more people than you can imaginewill enrich their lives by reading a journal written by someone they knew, or someone they admired, but most assuredly by someone who loved them.

These are my favorite journals! I love that they are blank and they don't have any lines. They're also really pretty on the outside.
