Handcrafted—

Unique. Specific. You.

Each DISCARDED journal and sketchbook is handcrafted from used, discarded, and upcycled books sourced from local shops, used bookstores, and libraries.

They are each bound by hand, individually numbered, and signed. The care and time put into each piece is something you can see and feel.

How it Works.

I want the journal you carry to feel like you.

When you select Order by Style or Customize and choose a journal or sketchbook, you will be selecting a Made To Order item.

***please note: it can take days to a week to build your piece

Order by Style

This allows you to choose a pre-loaded “style” with simple add on options.

Customize

This allows you to be really specific in what we create together. Including unique additional customizable options.

In either case— You will be prompted with questions that are crafted from the many conversations I’ve had with previous clients. It’s an opportunity for me to get to know you and provide something unique to you at each level of involvement and price point. 

Need something now? We got you covered!

Browse and see what’s available on the Bookshelf, in the Thrift Shop, or take a peek at the Rare Book Room

I’ve had the privilege of building books from scratch, crafting old family journals into something new and lasting, or salvaging forgotten storybooks for a second journey. Sound like you? Contact me or find me on Instagram. I’d love to collaborate with you!
