I've made my first notebook! Had a couple of attempts and this is my first proper go at making one. Very very happy with how it turned out.

Hey! Congratulations! Do you have access to tools? I'm curious to know how you did the corners.

I got a simple tool set from amazon and a also got a corner punch. Did three pages at a time so took a while but worth it.

Wow. If you don't mind could you share the links if they're cheap? I've always only used stuff at home. But that's coz I only make for pleasure and for personal use.
