Hello! Are you curious to see what's inside September's box? Well, good news! One of our design team members, James, has filmed an unboxing video over on Youtube! Not only does he share the box contents, but he also does swatches of everything as well.   If you haven't subscribed to him already, you are definitely missing out. He creates the most beautiful spreads in his Traveler's Notebooks and I personally appreciate what he can do using a black paper notebook.  You can also check out his Instagram for more eye candy @jxxmxsx Thank you!
