about the heirlooms: this journal is a space for meaning-making, for memory gathering, for writing/drawing/sketching.
heirloom journals are blank, handmade journals. they're soft and sturdy made with clothbound covers and hand marbled end pages made using the ancient japanese process of suminagashi.
the HEIRLOOM JOURNAL is great for drawing, pen writing, pencil sketching, collage, and light wet media usage and pairs well with a mug of tea, a long story, gratitude practice, a landscape drawing, or a long road adventure.
