I made one for my own Tokyo travel journal using vintage map paper I brought home from Japan, and after sharing it on my socials, a few people asked if I would ever make more. I had only a small number of maps left, so I decided to give the remaining papers a new life through this tiny batch of handmade journals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1771\" data-start=\"1304\"\u003eEach journal is B6 size, approx. 125 × 176 mm, and handstitched with brown Japanese thread. Inside, you’ll find 44 pages made from real vintage Japanese map paper. Because the original maps were printed on one side, the pages have a beautiful mix of printed map details and blank spaces. Some pages are filled with roads, markings, and little map illustrations, while others feel quieter and more open for writing, sketching, collecting ephemera, or keeping memories.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"2005\" data-start=\"1773\"\u003eI love that these old maps once helped people find their way around a place. Now, instead of sitting forgotten on a dusty shelf, they can hold new stories, travel notes, sketches, pressed flowers, ticket stubs, or everyday thoughts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"2211\" data-start=\"2007\"\u003eEach journal is completely unique, with its own cover design and inside page arrangement. The paper also carries a subtle vintage paper scent, which adds to the charm and character of using real old maps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"2337\" data-start=\"2213\"\u003eUse it as a travel journal, sketchbook, mini junk journal, memory keeper, or simply a special little notebook to keep close.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-end=\"2349\" data-start=\"2339\" data-section-id=\"fykqkn\"\u003eDetails:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul data-end=\"2657\" data-start=\"2351\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"2385\" data-start=\"2351\" data-section-id=\"gbzftg\"\u003eSize: B6, approx. 125 × 176 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"2405\" data-start=\"2386\" data-section-id=\"11x64j6\"\u003ePages: 44 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"2451\" data-start=\"2406\" data-section-id=\"rh2qp4\"\u003eMaterial: Real vintage Japanese map paper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"2504\" data-start=\"2452\" data-section-id=\"o106od\"\u003eBinding: Handstitched with brown Japanese thread\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"2542\" data-start=\"2505\" data-section-id=\"1pbld4p\"\u003eQuantity available: 4 pieces only\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"2604\" data-start=\"2543\" data-section-id=\"1xcyn4z\"\u003eEach journal has a different cover and inside page design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-end=\"2657\" data-start=\"2605\" data-section-id=\"9b86om\"\u003eHandmade from repurposed vintage maps from Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-end=\"2673\" data-start=\"2659\" data-section-id=\"1xkj2hn\"\u003eNote:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"215\" data-start=\"30\"\u003eBecause these journals are handmade from real vintage maps, each one naturally carries signs of age such as slight yellowing, folds, marks, texture, and a faint vintage paper scent.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"393\" data-start=\"217\"\u003ePlease do not expect a flawless, mass-produced notebook.
