Frequently Asked Questions
How do you engrave my journal?
To get the best engraving results the tools really do matter. We only use top-of-the-line Trotec laser systems allowing us to capture tiny details with incredible quality. It’s high-tech, meets high-art, meets custom design!
Will I receive a mock up to approve before engraving begins?
Yes - mock ups are sent for your approval before we engrave. There is no charge for this and you can request as many revisions as you would like.
Can I use my own logo or handwriting for the engraving?
Yes you can upload a high-resolution logo or a clear photo of handwritten notes.
What kind of refills does this journal use?
This journal is designed to fit standard 6" x 8" A5-sized inserts.
How does the leather age over time?
We use premium top-grain leather that is designed to develop a patina. With use, the leather will soften, darken slightly, and pick up unique characteristics. Scratches can be buffed out with the oils from your hands, making the journal look better the more you carry it.
Where is this journal made?
Every journal is designed and custom-engraved at our studio in Canada. We take pride in supporting local craftsmanship and ensuring every piece meets our "Memories Made" quality standard.
How long does engraving take for personalized items?
Once you approve the mockup, we aim to engrave and ship your journal within 2–4 business days. Times may be longer during the busy season - Christmas, Mothers day, Valentines etc.
How long does Shipping take?
Shipping within the GTA is usually 1-2 days.
Across Canada: Typically arrives within 2 to 5 days
US: 3-6 days on average.
International: Between 5 to 10 days.
Can I upgrade the shipping to express?
Yes you can - please contact us for upgraded shipping options and timelines.
Journal, Box and Bookmark Details
- Journals are 6.75" x 8.75" and come with a refillable 6" x 8" book with 192 lined pages. Flap tie closure, Made from top-grain cowhide.
- All journals are dark brown in colour but as these are made from a natural material no two are exactly the same. There are different shades of brown and your journal may be a little lighter, or a little darker, in color. Different monitors will display colours differently as well – the same journal may look different when viewed on two different monitors. If you have a preference in colour we will do our best to find one that matches your preference from the existing stock on hand. We cannot accept returns for journals because the colour does not match exactly the colour in the listing photos. Please be aware of this when ordering.
- Journal leathers are thicker weight top-grain cowhide, making each hand-made product a unique piece that showcases the leather's aged and weathered patina. Random, beautiful, and natural blemishes add texture and variety to each of our product.
- Leather will scratch and scuff which we think adds character to each piece. Scuffs can easily be rubbed out with a finger tip. If you prefer polished shiny leather please do not order this journal.
Your leather product may have some of the following characteristics:
SCARS & SCRATCHES
STRETCH MARKS
WRINKLES & VEINS
COLOR VARIANCE
Some color variation between hides is common and is a natural result of the tanning process. These makes each piece unique while still preserving the tone and hue of your chosen color.
