Magnolia Notebook

This is a lovely notebook, but pages are not white as shown. They're a rather dark tan which I don't like. I wish they were white, but will still put it to good use.

I find myself having to make lots of last minute notes as I leave my apartment so I love how functional and beautiful it is on the shelf by my door. I like that it lays flat at any number of pages and appreciate the velvety texture of the cover! I only wish they made the next size up notebook in as many patterns.

Very well made, will enjoy using for notes to my daughter.

Let's just get The Known Facts out of the way: Denik's layflat notebooks ACTUALLY lay flat, and the binding doesn't get all weird with constant and repeated use. (If you don't already know this as a fact, TRUST me on it. Or better yet, order one and find out for yourself.) And most of the covers - like this one - REALLY *are* velvety smooth! I was reluctant about that description before I got my first one, I'll admit. Wasn't quite sure what it meant. But velvet-y is a GOOD thing, as it turns out. A VERY good thing. Very fancy, very nice, very smooth. I, like...prefer it on my notebooks, now. Nay, I DEMAND it. And on top of ALL THOSE THINGS, there are the artists that Denik collabs with!!! Like this one!!! I'm a freelancer with many hats (how else could I be writing such a long review at 7:30 in the morning) and one of my gigs is with a flower shop. So I'm now, like, obsessed with flowers. And obviously, so is my client. So I wanted to get her a notebook with a floral print awhile ago, but could never find quite the right one. She's wonderful and would've loved whatever I gave her, but I wanted it to be the best out there. ENTER: Denik. ENTER: this artist. ENTER: me giving my client one of the prettiest notebooks I've ever seen that I actually secretly wanted to keep for myself. It was a hit! It's her favorite notebook now! You really did me a solid, guys. Thank you for this notebook and for this art!
