Custom Leather Moleskine Cover

Morningbreeze Blog has a beautiful leather cover that was custom made for their moleskines that they use. As you can see from the photo to the left that this cover compliments the moleskine. It seems to be the nice high gloss leather surface. There is also a place for a pen to call home at the top of the moleskine. Very nice indeed as you have it all in one location. This seems to be fairly similar to the leather cover that I made for my Miguelrius Notebook. I would assume this will protect the moleskine as much as the leather cover I made. This will keep everything nice and neat.

Great Job MorningBreeze!

:) Very cool! Thanks for pointing it out!! :)

BTW, have you gotten a Vanishing Point by Pilot/Namiki yet? I never thought I’d like it as much as I do- it’s now my every-day pen. :) Super-fine line… the Japanese F’s are nice and fine. Definitely would work well with a Skine- the finer lines do better with ‘em.

I hate to say it, but even though I love my Miquelrius, I still really love Moleskines as well. :) Just peeves me that they could be making them with much better paper.

Hope you’re doing well, Alan!

You mention a custom leather cover you created for your notebook. Do you have a blog entry that discusses it or maybe some pictures?

Why yes I do – Thanks for asking.

They link to my Flickr Photset about the journal and the leather cover.

By the way – Thanks for visiting and welcome back any time.

Merlin: I’ve been following you and your travels for some time now, but this is the first time I’ve seen the Miguelris Leather Cover you made. I am quite interested in either the plans or, if you are into it, “commissioning” you to make one for me. Let me know what you think or propose. Thanks so much. This is a GREAT site, and I have learned much. Kelly
