Magical Journal Review
I am a great lover of stationery, anything notebook or journal related has my undivided attention. So when I saw these absolute beauties from Magical World Journals online…
…I was in love and how lucky did I feel when I was given the opportunity to review one aaaaand have not one but TWO of my lucky readers win a magical journal of their choice each! – but more on that shortly.
Out of the four designs you can choose from, I opted for the Vampire. No surprises there really as I have been known to be a bit {excuse the pun} fang lover. Any fang TV series, a movie you’ll be sure it’s on my to watch or already watched pile. The soon-to-be-released Dracula movie has me particularly intrigued.
When I saw these journals online, I thought they looked amazing and I had no idea how astounded I would be at the craftsmanship of the overall journal, once it arrived. As that’s exactly how I felt, astounded. The soft plastic cover looks amazing, it’s hand-painted and the inside….aside from the amazing vampire-themed page borders {spiders, webs, creepy tree branches, dripping blood}….but the illustrations in the journal also have this clever way of telling you a story.
I made you guys this little video…The Lure of a Vampire:
The illustrations are pretty awesome, right? I was pretty stoked when I realised they weren’t just random doodles but in fact an eery tale.
The detail of this journal, as a whole is amazing! Check out that woodwork, those eery undead fingers slowly opening his slumber fueled coffin…I love it. The back is just as fabulous! The stonework, the web and spider….see for yourself…
This is bar far my favourite of all of my journals, which I have become sort of a weird collector of. I don’t know if I can ever bring myself to use this {yet} as what if I make a mistake…gah! It’s too pretty to use…but perhaps one day I’ll find the ‘perfect’ use for this precious piece on my stationery shelf. Prices ranging from £9.95 to £15.95 – these are a GREAT price and my daughter is already pressing me to ask ‘Santa’ for the Unicorn journal! 😉
Disclosure: I was sent this product for the purpose of my review. All thoughts, photos and opinions are my own.
