Bound Custom Journals was a Kickstarter project out of North Carolina. All went swimmingly and now they have a site fully stocked with three styles of customizable books to choose from to build your very own: the 4×6″ linen flexible hardcover ($35), 3.5″x5″ memo book ($10) and the 4×6″ leatherette flexible hardcover ($50). The linen cover is available in five colors, the leatherette in two. Even the memo book is available with five color options for the covers.
An assortment of paper types can be chosen for the inside:
Any combination of pages can be used; you can fill the front with a calendar and checklists and then the remaining pages with lined, blank, grid, isometric grid or all of the above. The options are pretty open.
Bulk orders will allow you to customize the covers with your business logo or personal artwork.
As best as I can tell, the interior of the book appears to be a bright white paper stock. And as luck would have it, Brad at the Pen Addict just posted a review of his new journal and memo book from Bound with pen tests and images of interior pages. Check it out as he finds the paper good with gel pens but not so good with fountain pens.
