The olive one its a treasure.

[@thosewithwords]

I really enjoy the original olive! I like the new passport one too, though.

[@meowing_prospector]

I love looking at all your tn's, this was so much fun. They all their own personality, thanks for sharing.

[@thosewithwords]

Thank you so much for watching! I love that you said they have their own personalities - it really feels like it!

[@jasminemarie637]

Love hearing your stories about each cover.

[@thosewithwords]

Thank you Jasmine! I want to make a lot more memories with each cover!

[@autisticbucky]

what a beautiful collection! thank you for sharing 💛

[@thosewithwords]

Thank you so much! I don't have the biggest collection, but each one feels like it really belongs here 😊

[@dabblinginjournals]

What a wonderful collection of TNS so beautifully personalised! I would so love a Truly Yours notebook. A big splurge given I live in the uk! Perhaps I should save up my teeny tiny you tube income 🤣 Would probably take a year but worth it lol! I’m so happy to have found your channel…so many videos to explore. Thank you for sharing your beautiful notebooks! My best wishes to you, Ali x

[@thosewithwords]

Thank you so much for watching and leaving a kind comment! I really enjoyed the customization process to make the TNs my own 😊

[@2tinytreasures]

Love all the customized items 💕 great stories…also love the airport letters for a travel notebook 🤔 the ideas 💡 now rolling in my head. Thank you for sharing! Special indeed

[@thosewithwords]

Thanks so much for watching - I'm glad it sparked some ideas for you!

[@Carla2637]

Ive heard there are products to take care of the leather of your Tn's. So you can bring your olive one sort of "back to life".

[@thosewithwords]

Yes! I keep meaning to try a little bit of leather conditioning cream on it but haven't been able to find one in a small size (since I won't be using it too often). For now, I'm enjoying the weathered look on my traveler's notebooks. Thanks for watching!

[@awefull-gold]

Such a lovely collection, each cover with its own story 🥰

[@thosewithwords]

Thank you so much for watching! Each cover is special to me in its own way 😊

[@sandramathews4915]

Great with stories! I wish now I had written a brief bit about each of mine (when I bought them and where etc).

[@thosewithwords]

Thank you for watching! I had to dig up some old emails and posts to piece the stories back together 😂

[@LazyStory]

Buy less, then it is much easier to remember

[@dallymagno]

You have the most beautiful collection. All glossy & soft kind. While mine are suede kind which i really don't fancy much but what can I do. They are the only ones avail in our country. ☹️😀

[@thosewithwords]

For some reason a lot of my TNs were smoother from the beginning instead of that super soft, suede-like material - and as I used them, they started to become shiny. I still have yet to add a camel regular size to my collection and maybe that will be more suede-like? I hope yours will become glossy and soft with regular use!

[@mathildelonborg]

Don’t worry - they get glossy with age and lots of handling. My camel is the slowest to get glossy as it is very suede but I have one passport I used daily for a year and it’s nice and shiny now.

[@julia-here]

Lovely collection! May I ask where you purchased the black wallet insert for your most recent passport cover? I am looking for something similar. Thanks so much :)

[@thosewithwords]

Thank you for watching! I got it years ago in Seoul from The T.I.ME store and it's a leather insert made by a brand called Poshprojects. I'm not sure where else it would be available, but another lovely brand called 1.61 soft goods makes their own TN leather folders here if you're interested: 1point61softgoods.com/all?category=Traveler%27s%20Notebook

[@julia-here]

@@thosewithwords it’s lovely! Thanks so much for the reply and the alternative ☺️; very excited about trying a passport cover as a wallet!

[@ash5533]

Can other inserts be used in these notebooks?

[@thosewithwords]

For sure! As long as the measurements of the inserts match the cover size, you can use papers from different brands (or even make your own).
