![]() ![]() I whipped one up as a sewing project and it has kept all the gold writing on the outside looking like new. Since this little book will be with you for a LONG time, buy or make a little protective sleeve to slip it into when you're not writing. I've been writing in this little journal for three years now and already bought a second one just to make sure I can continue this wonderful habit into a new volume. I don't even think I've ever had a journal for this long before! This book has definitely succeeded in keeping me in the habit of journaling, and I am so glad I bought it. It has now been about 3 months since I have started writing in the One Line a Day memory book. I love looking back on my past entries and I love the challenge of narrowing down my busy days into 1 or 2 of the most important events. The idea behind this is that you can look at your entries from a single day over 5 years all on 1 page. Each page has 5 or 6 lines per section, and 5 sections per page. Even the inside pages are aesthetically pleasing and simple enough that it makes my handwriting look pretty. The gold-edged pages are another great bonus! The book looks amazingly elegant and appealing on my night stand. It's more of a Tiffany blue, with gorgeous gold embellishments. The blue color is slightly different from what I expected based on the main product image. ![]() When I stumble home after a long day and just want to roll into bed, I see this book on my night stand and say to myself, "Might as well write something, it will only take a minute!" Even if I forget to fill in a day, going back and filling in a line takes up minimal time.Īside from the 5-star concept behind this book, the design is also beautiful. Writing in this book is easy peasy, rewarding, and (dare I say it?) fun! I don't feel pressured into having to fill entire pages with my questionably existent thoughts. It is now 3 months later and I am more than pleasantly surprised. Based on the reviews for this book, I thought I would give the whole one-line-a-day thing a shot. I also wanted to jot down reminders of events and milestones, because of my horrible long-term memory. I bought this journal because I wanted to start getting into the habit of reflecting on my day before bed. I'm the kind of person who buys journals, writes in them for a week or so, and then gets bored. I honestly never thought I would give a 5-star rating to a journal. The ribbon page marker is also holding up just fine.Ī nice little journal, I've enjoyed writing in it daily, and look forward to using it for the next few years. However, these issues are mostly cosmetic - the spine and binding have held up very well, as good as when I bought it, I have no worries about it falling apart any time soon. As I said, I travel a lot so my journals see a lot of wear and a bit of rough use - so if you're like me, this is something to consider. The lining on the cover is starting to warp a bit, causing little bubbles and larger creases - although the cover below is still fine. Some of the gold on the edges of the pages is starting to scratch off as well. First, the gold lettering has worn off the front and spine. Overall, I am happy with this journal, but there are some flaws. I travel a lot so I also appreciate it's smaller size. I have small, neat handwriting so I am able to put a fair bit of information in each day - folks with larger handwriting may have some trouble, but there should be enough room to write the highlight of the day (which is the point, after all). At the end of the journal you are given three sections for 'dates to remember' - basically blank lined pages for any use. Each section provides a place to write the year (20_), and then gives six small lines to write on. Each page has the date listed on top, and five sections for each year. The bulk of the journal is, of course, made up by the daily pages. #Memorykeeper binders how to#That is followed by a page that tells you how to use the journal. The first page is a place to put your name, address, phone number and email (in case the book is lost). It's a small (but thick) journal, with a nice blue cover and gold details. ![]() I bought this journal a little less than a year ago, and have been writing in it daily. ![]()
