Moleskine Leather Notebook

You guys have really been a bad influence on me as I just received my leather notebook cover from Renaissance Art. It fits the 3 1/2" by 5 1/2" Moleskine notebook and is brown leather with a black leather snap closure. BTW my wife said I can't play with you guys anymore!!! LOL!!!

Leo. That is indeed a fine cover you have got. As you your wife, heck get her into fountain pens, I am sure she will love them!

Ian, that's possible to get her interested but I know she prefers ball point pens and thinks that my rollerballs and fountain pens are a waste of money..... Actually we are kind of opposites as she thinks everything I collect is a waste, takes up space and collects dust!!!

Sounds great on the cover, Leo! I'm sure you will get many years out of it.

Hey, biro, rollerball... it's all the same and what you prefer.

Just keep your "stuff" dusted and sure it will be alright.

If your wife is called Carole Leo, I think we married the same woman.

The feel and smell of this beautifully crafted cover is sublime, I have it on my Moleskine day to a page diary.

Congrats! I'm on their site pricing stuff out in another tab as I type. The vintage look is excellent.

What size pen loop did you get? I'm not sure if I need a large or medium.
