About Me

The idea of starting TP Handmadejournals began with a massive computer crash.. As a housewife I love to experiment and prepare different dishes, and so I am constantly looking on the net for new ideas, which I save to a folder on my desktop, however one fateful day, the Pc crashed and my hard drive was toast. I then remembered the tattered old recipe book my Nana left for me and decided to make a personalised kitchen recipe book, hand stitched the old fashioned way, to save and to keep all of my favourite recipes together and avoid another misfortune. As my Nana left her recipe book for me I will leave mine for my granddaughters. My friends loved the idea of a hand sown personalised and cool Recipe Journal and asked me to make them one.They also suggested it would be a good idea to make some as gifts for like minded people and so was born TP hand made Journals.

Leather Hog Skin Leather Graduation Photo Album.

 After a few months without posting any new products,

I have just finished a commissioned piece, for a full leather ( Hog's Skin Leather& Calf Leather), Graduation photo Album.

The Albums cover is in Black Hog's skin leather and side panels in Tan calf leather, all hand sown in waxed cotton 12 gauge black and brown coloured cotton. Six, 2mm card dividers, sown into the inner spine are decorated in a cosmos theme, holding 60 Photos, in two standard UK sizes 4x6inch and 6x8inch and some slots meant for passport size 2x4 inch.. The size of the Album is 31cms (L)x14cms (W) x 26cms (H), weighing in at solid 2.7Kg.

I am planning to upload a full demonstration video that has been already shot but still needs the narrative added. Hopefully this will be done this coming week.For reasons of anonymity the sown leather name badge has been blurred.

Hope you like it!
