Here are two beautiful notebooks from
Daycraft: the
Signature sketchbook and
Feminique notebook. The Signature sketchbook has a sophisticated style, and the Feminique notebook is a slightly frillier style.
The Signature sketchbook has a soft-to-touch, flexible cover. The book is small, approximately 5 3/4 by 4 1/4 inches, so it can go anywhere.

The edges of the pages are black, which makes for a very dramatic-looking book:

"Daycraft" is subtly embossed on the back of the otherwise-blank cover:

The creamy paper is smooth, thick (118 g) and acid-free. There is a ribbon page marker that matches the paper edge color.

The Signature line also includes
lined notebooks and
daily and weekly planners, in a variety of colors and sizes. It's a beautiful, elegant book with wonderful paper and a soft cover.
The Feminique lavender notebook is a light purple color with a suede-like textured cover.

The first page inside the front cover has this inscription, which smells of lavender when you rub it:

The lined, cream-colored paper is smooth and thick (also 118 g like the Signature).

The book is A6 size (approximately 5 3/4 by 4 1/4 inches).
Purple! Fuzzy! Lavender fragrance! I love it.
The Feminique range also includes
diaries.
Daycraft is the #1 brand of diaries and notebooks in Hong Kong. They currently are searching for a distributor in the US. Let's hope they find one soon so we can all have access to these beautiful books!
