    Any company selling traveler’s notebooks should link to this video to show how to set them up. This is the ONLY video necessary to set up your new notebook!

    Finally!!! It's taken me forever to find a video with just the basics. There are TONS of videos showing people crafting, stickering, writing, and drawing. When they get to the assembly of the refills, they fast forward. Argh!!! That was what I wanted to see. I know how to do calligraphy; I know how to scrapbook; I know how to paint. What I didn't know was how to put this together. It's not that I don't appreciate seeing other people's art, but what you showed was perfect! Thank you so very much!!!

    Great primer on getting started so people can be prepared for the onslaught of options and stuff that are to come. These notebooks can be literally life changing if you are the type to have a plethora of notebooks laying around for different purposes, always afraid of putting the wrong stuff in the wrong notebook only to realize it later. Just swap out inserts or add another and book, ready to rock and roll. Plain, grid, lined, dot grid, planners, so many options. Thanks for the great info for getting even more out of these great investments.

    Thank you for showing so many different ways to set~up my Travelers notebook. I adjusted mine several times and tried looking at others, but yours were simple instructions with a lot of inserts like mine.
    I am working with 5 inserts and my wallet to take on a trip. I need all of my inserts and couldn't find anyone with 5 . Thank you so much.
    Now off to HAPPY Traveling I Go!!!

    I initially used method 1 for the 3-refill TN when I was starting, but it annoyed me that the middle refill refuses to be parallel with the others without constant fiddling, and it caused the 2 outer refills to be curved at the spine. I saw a variant of method 2 and tried it but I was afraid the cover was going to get ripped at the spine so I ditched that immediately.
    I saw another video that did a variant of your method 3 for 3-refills and that's what worked the best for me-- 1) insert the middle notebook on the top band of the cover; 2) use a rubber band to bind the left outer notebook to the middle notebook; 3) use another rubber band to bind the right outer notebook to the middle notebook. This method kinda bulks up the center of the middle notebook because of the thickness of the rubber bands but I don't mind esp since it doesn't damage it anyway. What matters is the refills aren't getting bent/curled and when I'm looking at the top and bottom of the spine, it doesn't look like the rubber bands are struggling lol
