I just found your channel. If you want to paint leather, there are primers for that. Also painting in suede actually is better, than painting in smooth leather. If you want the paint to stick, the area to paint needs to be completely free from grease so a great way to insure that is to wipe the surface with nail polish remover. Also smooth leather could be sanded with a fine grid sandpaper. The paint often cracks on the spine of the notebook, because that is where the leather stretches. There is chemical sold that you can mix with acrylic paint (using 50-50 ratio) to ensure, the paint stretches with bending leather.

I bought the blue cover on a gamble because I liked the way it looked more than the black, which is my go-to. I was *not* disappointed. It's a very deep, dark navy that easily passes for black. Just to give you some perspective from someone who has it and is not a big blue person.

That's great to know, I'll probably get it eventually if I can justify it. Not sure how long I'll be in it and I don't trust myself 😂 everytime I think I'm in planner peace something comes up

@@toxmot I know what you mean. I just got this last week and now with all the Hobo hauls, I'm trying to come up with a reason for why I need a weeks mega. But all the reasons I would have had were satisfied by my new TN! The only thing stopping me right now is them being out of stock locally and not wanting to pay international shipping *again* haha. I think I've lost my mind.

@@akaErma Ugh totally understand your dilemma! Gah, I've been getting an itch to buy a planner insert from baumkuchen into my TN since I'm really enjoying journaling in it. But I already have a hobo weeks. So I'm really going to try to not do that lol.

Late to the party but thanks for sharing an update on your painted covers! Painting mine is still on my wishlist but planner season came first 🙈 My main problem is that most of my TNs are original Midoris (bought second-hand from Mercari in Japan) and somehow I cannot justify painting those. The only one I would paint is my very first, blue one that I totally didn’t baby and is now quite green. It did get a lot of sunlight though, so if you feel like buying the blue one some time, maybe that‘s a hint? Not keep it in the sunlight so much. 😂 Then again, mine is from 2018 and they could have a totally different leather by now, every TN is different. 🤷🏻♀️

It's totally ok to wait until you feel ready to paint them with no regrets. I waited a long time before I took the chance. I think planning the colours and design should take even longer. But yeah, I painted my brown original Midori because I didn't like it. I like it much better now. I would never paint my olive 😊

It's the brand "The Superior Labor". You can get it from wonder pens or baumkuchen stationery.
