Matching the colour of the (grip) section to the artwork is one of the steps involved in making one of our fountain pens.
It’s fun, but also tricky, as the true colour of the resin only reveals itself once the section has been turned, sanded, polished and buffed.
Cross fingers for me please!!
(The octopus painting is by YULIA GLAS Artist.)

Many people ask, “What should I write about in my journal? Surely daily routine stuff isn’t worth recording?”
My gran wrote diary entries for decades, and today I can find out fascinating details about what her daily life was like.
My own journals give me a picture of who I was in the past and of events that I had simply forgotten.
So my answer to that question: Write about the day-to-day stuff and don’t wait a significant event to happen. Often you will only discover an event’s significance in hindsight.

Thanks to the feedback I received I will not be destroying my old journals.
And it started me on a process to list 42 Reasons Why I Journal.
If you would like to add your reasons in the comments I would love to hear them.

Just launched on our website: this original painting by Hanna Farmer on an A5 leather journal cover, and matching painting on one of our fountain pens.
A journal can be a place to reveal one’s many moods, whether happy, sad, mad, reflective, stressed, or content, and aspects of one’s personality, such as creative, zany, obsessive, impulsive, control-freak, a daydreamer, or addicted to beauty. (And sometimes all of these all within the same day!)
What better place to keep these thoughts safe than inside this leather journal cover aptly called My Many Faces.
The matching fountain pen is an astonishing work of art, especially given that it is painted on such a minute surface. Hanna painted directly on to the body of one of our Jabulani models.
We then coated the artwork in a clear resin and turned it into a fountain pen, adding a custom-made blood red grip section, a #6 Jowo nib and a specially designed custom clip.
The clear resin protects the artwork and allows the owner to carry this pen and use it as a functional work of art. The clip, cap band, and the logo medallion embedded in the cap finial are solid Sterling silver, made via the traditional lost wax method of casting precious metals.

Each of our hand-painted fountain pens is an original and this leather journal cover is also an original. (We will be selling prints of this artwork on journal covers, but just to be clear: what makes this one special is that it is the original painting.)
