book journals by Ex Libris Anonymous

Don’t you just love a good journal? Ex Libris Anonymous creates upcycled book journals from vintage hardbacks!

Jacob Deatherage at Ex Libris Anonymous makes beautiful recycled journals from vintage books in his Portland, Oregon studio. Back in August I featured one of Jacob’s journals in a roundup of handmade school supplies, and Jacob is now generously offering up a journal to one lucky Glue and Glitter reader! Check out giveaway deets below.

Jacob lovingly salvages the covers and some of the very best pages from the vintage books that he finds and turns them into spiral notebooks, and he’s been making and selling his journals since 2000. I love how much character each Ex Libris journal has. The salvaged pages are like fun little surprises on the journaling journey!

    I am torn between Benny and the Bear (the art style is so reminiscent of the library books we would check out when I was young) and Adventures in Appreciation, which has got to be one of the coolest book titles I have ever seen.

  10. Ah, these journals are so fun! My favorite would have to be Mr. Pine’s Purple House. I loved that book as a kid, and it’s still one I think of every now and again.
