Bound Custom Journals

Custom Bound Journals recently launched their website for the public to use and create their own custom journals. If it wasn’t for Kickstarter I’m not sure if I would have learned about them yet. I’m happy to say that I was one of 298 people that supported them via Kickstarter so the team of 3 could pursue this dream/​amazing business venture. I was a virgin of Kickstarter until I cam across Custom Bound Journals… I like to be on top of things (no pun intended) and I can always recall having a «day-​keeper» or schedule book handy during my most productive years of life (definitely not during the 4 years at UCSB)… I always bought an expensive piece of crap at the beginning of the year and by March… I’d either lose it or just get bored… this changed one year when I lived in Kyoto while serving as an Assistant Language Teacher on the JET Program. I found the most adorable and useful tool every a sturdy, hardcover bound, journal that was nearly half the size of binder paper but in a book shape and thin too! I found this useful and convenient to carry everywhere I went and I filled this book up to the brim with important contact numbers, pictures, shopping lists, vacations, things to do etc… I finished that one until December and never found anything like it. (I purchased it at JR Isetan at the Kyoto Station… they had over 20 all different designs and I bought the Arnold Palmer design with the classy little umbrella logo.)
Fast forward a bunch of years… Kickstarter is just like that amazing little book I picked up but this time you can customize your journal from the front cover to cover type and every single page from beginning to end. I’ve come up with many great ideas but starting a company so that everyone could make their own was definitely not one of them. Cheers to the threesome for their idea and their quick follow through. I look forward to creating my own in the near future.
