Wherever you go and however you like to get there, there’s a travel journal bound to be perfect for the trip! We will make three different travel journal formats, each with their own purpose and loaded with possibilities for adaptation.
A Globetrotter Accordion is a small yet roomy book to show off your travel photos and mementos. Next, a Japanese Wrapped Back Journal with a soft cover and lots of built-in pockets re-purposes topographic maps in a creative way to give you both blank and decorative pages.
Then, a Tacket Bound Journal uses a lightweight cover with your choice of map- vintage or modern- to show off this sturdy ancient stitch. Three signatures inside hold a variety of acid-free papers. We’ll further customize this book with added pockets, extra maps, and brad closures.
If you have a cool map you don’t mind cutting up or gluing, be sure to pack it!
