Ok I just purchased this. I couldn’t help myself. lol it struck a cord with me and since it is ring bound I figured I could add my own pages as well since I also make my own journals. This one just rang out to me and reminded me of my Grandmother so much. I’ve admire your journals so much because they are works of art. And I am an avid collector of all things creative. This is a beautiful elegant timeless journal and I promise it will be cherished. And you can go on to make many more.❤ so happy to be able to be the keeper of this wonderful piece. 😊❤

Firstly, what an absolutely gorgeous journal. Secondly, I had to laugh when you said you put a price on it that was ridiculous so that you could keep it. :-) My mother-n-law is a bead artist and she makes these gorgeous beaded showpieces and she made one that she absolutely loved. So she decided to charge 3x what she normally does, thinking nobody would buy it. Somebody bought it within 24 hours. She was so upset about it that she asked the person who bought it if she could wear it for a month before sending it to them, and they agreed! :-) How hilarious is that? I'm glad it worked out for all involved. (Incidentally, I went and checked to see what you charged for this and I think it's worth every penny, even though I would not have been able to spend that amount. But so many journals I see on KZbin I think are way underpriced. The amount of time and effort, not to mention supplies, that go into them, honestly, they should be sold for thousands, because that's probably what we've put into them!!!) Have a lovely day. xoxo

This is just beautiful, as usual! I love the ring bound journal. I have made one. It's easier to design each page. You dont have to worry about the weight of the page, and of course, it is easier to write in. I'm attracted to the vintage colors as well. Lucky lady who bought it!

Speechless I am. Speechless and in awe. I love all your journals because they are so made with love and expertise. And I love Arabella because she is rich and exquisitely made. Again and like all of your journals. Have to repeat myself and not am sorry. Arabella is so appealing to me because of the neutral colors that underline the already noble appearance and, of course, because of the precious content! I think in Arabella’s case the ring-binding is daring because of the more modern touch BUT perhaps it is the contrast that makes it work so beautifully. Chapeau! Another masterpiece indeed!

I absolutely love th colour and style, lace and collage and every little piece of ephedra. i believe Arabella to be really special kind of lady ,in her day. So inspiring and unique.thank you for sharing this ,it has brightened my night and made me so happy. I am off to bed now with Arabella on my mind, who knows what other secrets will unfold in my dreams tonight .Xx
