Mini diary from Marta

I love to jot notes. I used to keep a daily diary, in the throes of adolescence, and I would write pages and pages a day, mostly whining about having to wear a school uniform and being annoyed that I couldn't drive yet. Sadly (or maybe not?) I haven't kept a diary in years, being a little fearful of the time commitment.

And then sweet Marta sent me one of her mini diaries. So tiny! So perfect! So easy to fit into my day (and my bag)!

A mini fill in the blank diary is a perfect first step and it will be so nice to flip through it later. The cover is gorgeous and the paper is perfect. D actually examined it with his keen graphic design eye and requested I find out what kind of paper Marta uses because it has such a wonderful weight and sheen.

Thank you, Marta!

For those of you who want your own, they are up in Marta's shop along with lots of other special things.

  1. I am totally in love with those! What a great idea. I, too, used to keep a diary, but it starts to feel like I'm talking to an imaginary friend, haha. Weird. But these are great!

  2. I gave my Mom a diary of sorts, with things filled in the blank spaces.
    I had photos and drawings and she told me it was the sweetest thing ever.
    She said, " I had no idea you loved me so much!"
    I love these little books. They are so you!
    We are loving our weekly eat pads and the napkins. My daughter wanted to know if I made them!

  6. Why would you complain about those "skorts" and teal polo shirts? We were too cool! Glad you're keeping a diary again, although this blog is a diary too and maybe someday your kids will be reading it.

  10. Very, very sweet. Those mini journals are a great idea! Perfect to write in right before you close your eyes at night -- and recall all the beautiful moments you had throughout the day.

  14. Oh, it's perfect! I used to keep a diligent diary as well, and lately I've been thinking up picking it up again. Isn't it interesting how we had so much more to say to a blank page as a teenager than we do now?
