Absolutely! Please reach out to us at [hello@alittlebindery]. We’d love to hear from you.

I’m noticing some minor blemishes on the covers and/or the pages.

Any minor blemishes on the covers of our journals are a natural result of the high-quality, eco-friendly, handmade paper we use. In addition, our printing process may result in minor printing inconsistencies on the pages inside. We take pride in our commitment to sustainability by minimizing waste and embracing the imperfections that may come with handcrafting techniques. We believe the unique charm of our journals comes from the fact that they’re truly one-of-a-kind.

Where are your journals made?

Our journals are made entirely from our apartment in Los Angeles, CA!
