The Spirit of Flight Journal (Notebook, Diary) (Oversized Journal) (Journals)

Lovely journal, the colors just pop. Although you cannot see it when first removing the plastic, I noticed it has imprints of the design which shows the texture and adds depth. The journal has a sturdy hardcover, strong pages and perfect to write in. I love Peter Pauper press journals because they have such originally in design and many many themes of interest so they are perfect for everyone. These days it is more difficult to find quality in your products for the price so this one was a real bargain. This journal really exceed my standards. It was bigger than I thought, very detailed and as always the company does not disappoint. I remember buying P.P. Press when they were readily available in the retail market in early 2000. I am happy to say I still have some designs that have been out of print for years. I cherish them and I hope that amazon will continue to bring PP Press Journals to us for many many years to come- thank you.

I love hard cover journals and this one is by far my favorite. The colorful design on the front is beautiful and unique. I find new wonders in the image every time I look at it. The binding is sturdy and there are plenty of pages to write on with the lines spaced in wide-ruled I believe. As said in the description, there is gold foil highlights throughout. The edges of the pages are even lined with the gold foil. The pages are a cream colored and are soft to the touch. I've only ever written in pen in the journal and the pen always writes smoothly and cleanly. I only payed $10.19 - a smashing deal considering the amount of detail put into the journal. Conclusion: I have no cons! Some reviews say the lines are too faint but they aren't to me. I only need guidelines when I write and this journal has amazing detail and beautiful color. Absolutely wonderful. I wish every one of my journals could be this one.

I bought these as gifts for a bunch of friends who helped as a group on a project. I got one for each and because I am frugal, didn't want to order one for myself. Well, I have changed my mind. I want one! The name grabbed me initially when I first looked at it and it was bigger, but not overly big. Sheets of paper are way bigger. This would easily fit into a bedside table, back pocket of a car, a reasonably sized handbag or a briefcase. It's pretty...in fact, it is beautiful! Definitely feminine. I think these could easily serve as a guest book for a bedroom. Instead of a tacky Hallmark book that announces GUESTS on it, a pretty book mark and a decent pen devoted to the book would make a perfect side table or dresser accessory for a room not used unless you have visitors. This price? Unbelievable!! A far as I am concerned as quality goes, it's beyond average and rivals the designer journals out there that cost 4-10 times more. (it's on sale now!) It is worth the full MSRP price. So yes, I will buy more, keeping one for my self. And a couple of others to give to friends when the occasion arises. I guess this has been around for a while, and that is why its marked down. No other reason makes sense. I wish PPP would use a domestic factory. Not that people halfway across the world need a job but it gives me a better feeling when I purchase something in a country where people have liberty. It is a big battle so I won't knock a star off for THAT but I wish I could say this product was made in a country who isn't building nuclear missiles to get the USA if needed! I'd pay a little more to have it made in a friendly country.

This journal is beautiful. I always but my sister a journal for her birthday. She journals non stop. She loved it! A customer favorite! The cover design of this enchanting journal features the painting The Spirit of Flight by popular English fantasy artist Josephine Wall. ''The force that powers wind and air, the Spirit of Flight is personified as a luminous goddess surrounded by dynamic elements from nature.'' The cover design is enhanced with gold foil highlights and subtle raised embossing for a dimensional effect. 192 lightly-lined pages provide space for personal reflection, sketching, making life lists, or jotting down quotations or poems. Creamy-smooth archival paper takes pen or pencil beautifully. A pleasure to use! 7-1/4 inches wide by 9 inches high. Josephine Wall paints in her cottage studio in Dorset, England. Her passion for nature and myth resonant in her intricately detailed artwork, interweaving the romantic with the surreal.

I'm not big on reviews but felt this one deserved a great one ! I searched for the perfect journal and this is it. I wanted to find one that would make me have more interest to journal so I found this one and I definitely hit the jackpot. The quality is amazing and it's just gorgeous. It has a beautiful glaze it with the pops of gold. Photos or videos don't do it justice. I hope this designer comes up with more journals, I would buy every single one

I was undecided as to which cover to get (Peter Pauper Press is INCREDIBLE!), but I ultimately went with this one because it expresses the elements so beautifully! This journal is what they consider oversized, which is perfect, because most journals are too small for me and I don't end up writing in them on a regular basis...no matter how beautiful they are. This one, though, is the perfect size! It is a quality made journal with a beautiful satin (blue) ribbon to keep your place. It's heavy weight ~ from the the cover, binding, to the very pale cream journal pages that are every so lightly lined (I need LINES to write!). The cover though! There are some spots that are scattered embossed gold (sooooo pretty!), that can catch the light perfectly! They are so light, that the only way I actually saw the gold was when the sun caught it! The artwork is beautiful! I can't say enough about this journal and how pleased I am with it! I will definitely be getting another one (maybe even sooner rather than later, just to make sure I have one on hand, or for another journaling purpose!). I don't think you will be disappointed!

I absolutely LOVE this! I have no idea why I saw some bad reviews so I wanted to come here to set the record straight. You are getting a beautiful, thick, good quality journal with a gorgeous cover and supporting a local business. I’m really happy and I hope there can be more journals with other pretty covers to buy in the future.

I love this journal.....it's so much more beautiful when it's in your hands. I have gone thru many many many of these in fact. It's such a better buy on Amazon.com, too. The bookstores I find this in are always full price, so if you don't buy it here you're just throwing away money. I have also given them as gifts and everyone I've given them to has enjoyed them. I find it interesting how different people find different uses for journals in general when I give them as gifts. For some its dreams, others it's used for travel....the uses are vast. This particular journal, however, is different in ways than other journals I've given away (and used myself). The cover, of course, sets it apart, but the pages themselves are of good quality too. Its hard back so from the first page to the last is comfortable to write on. The pages are spacious and the actual journal opens flat. If you want to give any journal as a gift, I would suggest this one whether the recipient is male or female (both have been just as pleased) and on any occasion....a great way to say thanks, too.

Too expensive for the price..

Mega Design und genügend Platz für Alles

Papier épais, les entres lignes parfaits poir mon écriture. La couverture rigide et le doré autour du papier est magnifique. Je vais m'en acheter d'autres, ça c'est certains

This journal is so beautiful and of high quality. I will for sure buy more Peter Pauper journals.

sublime journal
