KAKIMORI’s semi-custom made notebook

KAKIMOR's semi-custom made notebook

I got a nice present from my friend the other day.

KAKIMOR's semi-custom made notebook3

It is the world’s only semi-custom made notebook that a stationery shop named KAKIMORI created, which is located near Kuramae Station on the subway line. At KAKIMORI, you can make an original notebook to order by selecting a cover sheet, inside paper and the size.

The cover page is blue, which is my favorite color.

It’s too nice to use, but it is exciting to think how I will use it.
