It’s been one of those weeks this week, so my Midweek Musings are going to be rather short & sweet!

But regardless of that, it’s something I’ve been wanting to share but keep forgetting! I even took the photograph weeks ago in anticipation of sharing, and just never got to it! So, here it is: my new favorite notebook is the Erin Condren Hardbound Notebook!

I’ve been collecting them here and there as they go on sale, and I’m addicted! They’re a perfect size, 5″x8″, so you can use them in a lot of ways. You can toss one in your bag or, use them as a journal as I do, and they’re perfect for that!

They come in a bunch of colors, and the cover is so soft feeling. It’s hard to describe, but they’re really cool! Plus, the cover is able to be personalized – I chose my name on some and a variant of my name on others. But you don’t just have to stick with your name, you could “label” it for any purpose you desire.

You can also get them in two varieties – lined and dot grid. I chose the lines because they’re for my journaling and I’m not into bullet journaling (yet! LOL). The paper is really nice and heavy, and its edges are colored to match the cover color. And they have the ribbon place-keeper so you never lose your spot!

If you’ve been on the hunt for a notebook/journal of really nice quality, but reasonably priced, give one of these a try – I’m really happy with them. I’d been searching every time I had a chance in the stores for something just like these, and everything I’d found was pricier and not as nice! Just one more thing I love from Erin Condren! ❤️
