The inks were alright, but with as little experience I had with glass pens, it was an awesome tool to use! Additionally, I am quite amazed to see it come in one piece, all of the parts worked as I thought they would. I would honestly buy from here again!
Its my favorite journal company. This is my fourth journal I have brought in the last 4 years. I have given them out as gifts and my friends love them. The book has a vintage look and the paper is of high quality. I am impressed with the work. Thank you.. I love the charms rings of affirmation. Best of it all, Soothi donate trees to different countries and you get to pick.
I love the lighter color of this journal. As always the materials are super high quality, the paper is amazing and I love the tie string. This journal is made to last!
The words aren't very dark on the quote so I was a little bummed about that. You can't really read it super well. But other than that it's a great journal.
Oops journals are some of my favorite! I love coming up with creative ways to cover the little "oopsies" It's a lot of fun. There a great price and amazing quality! Get one and let your creativity flow ☺️
This is probably my favorite journal I've bought from Soothi. I love the fun quote on the front, and I'm a huge fan of the lined paper. I wish more of the journals had the options for lines! Overall beautiful journal.
Such a beautiful journal, hand made leather. Can’t wait to make more family memories to write in my clean canvas journal. You also get sent a card to plant your very own tree with every journal! How amazing is that! ❤️🌳❤️🌳
The Soothi "If A Story" Handmade Leather Journal is a beautiful, well-crafted notebook ideal for writers, travelers, or anyone who appreciates quality stationery. Wrapped in a gorgeous, rustic leather cover that softens with age, it features a motivational quote by William Faulkner for a touch of inspiration. With 100 blank pages for writing, sketching, or brainstorming, the unlined format offers complete creative freedom. The handy 7" x 5" size makes it portable and perfect for taking anywhere. But it's not just functional – the rich leather is a pleasure to hold and adds a touch of elegance to any desk. It's as beautiful to look at as it is to write in.
I ordered an "oops" item and received that perfect little journal. I love it and am very happy with it. I have bought several things from Soothi over the years and I have been super stoked about everything I have received. Great craftsmanship, it's practically an art. I highly recommend this shop when you're shopping for self-care/love or a gift for someone special.
Love the quality of the leather. Feels weathered and wears well. Surprisingly light journal considering the amount of pages and leather binding. Nice pen compartment, though I only use it if I'm traveling.
To note: If you do watercolor, the pages are heavy but slightly yellowed.
I like this journal so much that I bought 3 of them....1 for me and 2 for my weird and wonderful friends. It doesn't just say Weird and Wonderful, however. The complete quote on the journal is
"all things Weird and Wonderful". It's a great soft leather journal with awesome lined pages and a string tie.
"Earth Element Refillable Stone Leather Journal" has a very beautiful cover. BUT the binding of the papers inside is different from other non-refillable journals. Not easy to use. So I returned it. Please take a careful look at the picture of the papers inside the journal, especially the binding area.
I was skeptical since I've never bought from this site, but.........
Bought this journal for my Father-In-Law for Christmas this year (Christmas 2023 photos) who's been writing in journals all of his life, he said this is one of the best he's ever had. The leather smell hit him when he first opened the box, it hit us all! He loved it! The book, the smell, the inscription! He said he couldn't wait to start writing in it at the beginning of the 2024 year, which just happens to be TODAY!
Thanks for helping me with this great gift!
Not the same color leather stain as in the promotional photo. Was drawn to it for the look, but didn’t come like that at all. Same stain as everything else.
I like soothi journals so I’ll use it, but it’ll probably be a bit before I buy anymore due to mistaken advertising - I wanna buy what I know I’m gonna get.
I thought I was getting an oops item like a journal, but it’s literally what one sees in the photo - some oops 10 pk of blank cards - which I had no idea what it was until it showed up and I realized I just bought the most expensive blank note cards I’ve ever purchased in my life.
Not worth it. Envelopes flimsy and I don’t know what I’d ever use these for. But because it’s an oops item there are no returns.
Some blotchy leather stain on the back and some inadequate stain on the front lettering, but it’s a beautiful journal otherwise.
Just has QC overlooked cosmetic character.
I typically like the soothi journals though.
Some of ooops journals are absolutely 💯 usable but some are the paper to write on is rough but I love the surprise of ooops
Thanks for personal little note on the tabs holders I use as a book mark. As a journal blogger thank you for the smaller hand held versions need more with a pen holder Love it thank you
Larger than I expected...may actually have to reinforce the handle at attachment point cuz I keep loading it up with so much stuff ;) Sheds a little but I expect that will lessen over time. A real attention getter cuz of the fun quote!

It’s like this was made for me. I came with three journals of different styles. One for my short stories, where I can take out the inserts, one for doing planning of a novel, and one for me to start writing about my writing journal to pass on to my children. The cards are beautiful. The bag accessories are well-made, and I absolutely love the pencil leather pencil case. Of course now that I have a little leather passport cover, I need to actually get off my butt and get a passport to put inside. Definitely overjoyed with the product, and I really love surprise boxes, because you never know what you’re going to get.
