Día de los Muertos Pocket Notebook Construction

Designed with Selina Saldívar, an illustrator and lettering artist from Texas. Inside you'll find screenprinted endsheets with a floral pattern that Selina designed back in May. Echos of those blooms were brought onto the updated cover design. Plus each paper style has a unique color combination including its thread, endsheet, and stat card.

All Dapper Notes pocket notebooks are hand-made from scratch in New Jersey by Enon Avital. Every notebook cover is made from two materials: a good looking fabric on the outside, backed by book cloth inside. These covers are just the nicest, and oh so very showoff-able.

Absolutely stunning as always!

[@Lu-dm7rn]

I can't get enough of how satisfying it is the whole process of your creations, can we say that this is the equivalent of stationary p0rn? 😅

[@Puzzlemad]

Mesmerising!
This is one of the most beautiful books so far. I doubt I can bring myself to use it.

[@dappernotes]

The best part of a notebook is what you put in it

[@Puzzlemad]

I have lots and lots and lots (I might have a problem) off notebooks for every day use. Yours are kept for admiring!

[@IAmGiaGraham]

I could honestly watch these videos all day. 😆Love this one - just ordered! 😍

[@dappernotes]

Yay! Thank you so much Gia. Selina really did such a fabulous job designing these

[@javito19]

I love it! You are a great addition to my notebook brand. ❤

[@mursa46]

You create truly wonderful notebooks. I get carried away while watching your videos and I dream of making these types of notebooks one day. They certainly won't be as beautiful as yours because you create very special designs. There's something I'm curious about: What is the material you glued the fabric to and cut with a guillotine in this video? I would be very happy if you could give me information.

[@dappernotes]

I glue fabric to bookcloth. There's tool info in the FAQ on my site shop.dappernotes.com/pages/faq

[@mursa46]

@@dappernotes I didn't pay attention to your faq page. You explained it really well and I understood the information I was looking for very clearly in detail. 💗

[@dappernotes]

@@mursa46 glad it helped!

Everything you do is smooth. I’ve been up all night watching your videos….. beautiful workmanship. Are you happy with your corner rounder? I’m looking to buy one but the ones that I see out there on the market are getting so-so reviews.

[@dappernotes]

yes, it's the best rounder ive used in the affordable range (meaning anything above this range is upwards of $700). It's especially good for smaller stacks, like a notebook.

[@kaersten3623]

Thank you. That is good to know. @@dappernotes

[@TuttleDB]

I love them! Too bad I found you too late to get one. 😢

The artist (Selina) still has a few left in her shop www.ayselinita.com/shop/p/calavera-dapper-notes
