Are you thinking about commissioning a bespoke, personalised Memory Book, Wedding Guest Book, Sketchbook or Journal? Or perhaps you want to double check the size of a book in my Ready to Ship collection? This Size Guide will help you check dimensions. If you'd like some guidance on selecting the correct size for your needs, feel free to get in touch via my contact form.
I bind my leather books with standard 'A' size pages, the size referred to in the first column below. The dimensions in the following columns refer to the external size of the book.
Memory Books have 128 pages counted all sizes; Wedding Guest Books, Journals and Sketchbooks have 192 pages, except for speciality paper Sketchbooks (such as those with watercolour paper) which vary and you can find details for those on each product page. Pagination can be adjusted slightly for bespoke, personalised books.

Here are the approximate sizes of the pages. Exact sizes of both the original linen ribbon Wabi Sabi Sketchbooks and the newer velvet ribbon versions vary from book to book as they are bound with handmade, deckle edge paper. The number of pages varies per size, and is for standard books without fold-outs, pockets or paperback covers. The books are all portrait format, but can easily be turned to use them landscape if you prefer.
