This was posted next door on CRAFT, but I thought it was interesting enough to post here too. I use the pocket-sized Moleskine Cahiers and they look just like this. I actual did make one of my own, using some black lightweight card stock and 1/10 graph paper inside. It was easy. I saddle-stitched it and rounded the corners with scissors. It didn’t look all that different from the commercial black-cover Cahiers. These sewn-bound ones look great.

Nice one,
I love my Moleskines and my Maker’s Notebook, but I save old paper to make into pocket sized notebooks and sew them as shown in this post. The covers have always been the problem, but no more, using Cereal box cardboard is a great answer!
I would rather have the printed side of the box showing for something fun.
Sweet! I was planning on doing this this summer actually. Seems like a fun way to save on school supplies. I am going to try it with a perfect binding though.
If you do, Charles, take a pic and send it to us!
