– what would you bring out of your burning house?

I would bring myself out; screaming, shoving women and children out of my way; BUT
had I a choice I would bring whatever I could from the above items.

If I only had a choice of one it would be that black, plastic little thing near center which houses about everything I’ve ever worked on professionally since I were 19.

Got this leather cover for my notebook the other week. Vegetable tanned leather, I believe, so it should turn shade and get even more nice looking over time.

What’s more is that the notebooks are constructed to lay flat when spread. And this cover helps with some added stability.

It have some pocket-less slits, and a pen holder that reverts to being flat when not in use, making it pretty slick.

Naturally I got enough reasons to pick up some work on a simular book-cover idea of mine I’ve had for 2 years now.

Started experimenting with thin (less sturdy but way fluffier-) leather.

Grey A5 sized smooth leather, fluffy on the inside and medium roasted all around. Interchangable colored ribbons able to support 1 large book or 2 small ones. And a handy, slighly more soft- and way more elastic wrapping band in the back.

Comes with a penwrap made from the leftovers.

One short roll of a sticky black sheet, a cutter, cutting mat and a few hours later the thing adorns one of the balcony exits like so:

Freshly cut bambu from the local forest, honed down to the right cm to fit the bedroom walls. Are the lightning to come from below or from above? We’ll see.
