Love the feel of the paper. . I have not used it yet but it feels very smooth and have a good weight to it.
Stunning leather - already showing patina and the striations are getting more noticeable.
Firm in hand, smells amazing. Love the versatility of the number 10.
I love the idea of getting to customize my TN. For the fee years I have been a Chic Sparrow fan I have been cutting off the pen loops. Now I can just order them with. I wish all leathers were offered in the build a journal option.
Beautiful B6 for my novel writing notebooks! I love it, like my old Emma A6, that I use daily for life. The quality couldn't be better, and the surprise gift with purchase was beyond anything I could have ever expected! Thank you so much!
Love the smell of the leather when I unpacked this new A5 cover. Snugged a Hobonichi in one side after gently stretching the inside flaps by finger tip. Then a Galen Leather leather covered journal under the other flap...fit like a glove. A small personal embossed nickname in the bottom left makes it a deeply personal journal. The tab closure serves as my pen holder allowing me to use pen clips. A few personal cards inserted inside almost immediately for safe keeping. That snap closure is built to last and requires a solid push for a satisfying snap. I asked for a very mild pebble and got just what I wanted. If there are leather flaws I do not see them and found the leather well tanned, uniform and blemishes free. I will say it is a thicker leather and the internal elastic band set up for that style notebook insert is brilliant in that it has not punched the covers spine. Bravo on that design feature. Final thought is there is ample room for the single book insert and it can get as chonky as your biceps will allow with plenty of room to customize your carry items.
My only gripe is the shipping was slow (no free gift in my shipment either - unless it was a sticker, but it was well wrapped). The planner slowly moved along the US west Coast for about 2 weeks and another week to get to me in Canada. My Galen Leather Weeks Hobonichi cover ordered from Turkey at same time as this cover arrived before the Chic Sparrow by a full week.
I started a ChicSparrow_Planners community for people to share their planner covers pictures and share and discuss how they use them on Reditt.
Thank you, Rob. We loved reading how you are using your Campfire No. 10, and we are so glad the design works well for your Hobonichi. Every Chic Sparrow piece is made specifically for its customer by our small team here in Washington, so your comments about the leather, construction, and thoughtful details mean a great deal to us. We hope you enjoy using it for many years.
The jasmine nano mini TN is just that adorably cute. Will use it to jot down things like store list or just reminders.
Paper has a smooth quality and the size of the notebook is perfect for my journal. Would definitely buy again.
As always I was very pleased and excited to receive my order. The quality is definitely worth every dollar spent. I’ll always continue to support the shop. Amazing work guys.
Surprised! The leather is buttery soft and the picture doesn’t do my sidekick justice 💛
Absolutely love it! It's so beautifully made and sturdy. I am enjoying using it. I would definitely recommend adding the curved pocket on the front if not for just giving it character. Other passport sized covers felt awkward to me before but this one is perfect.
Gorgeous leather and a sturdy (I mean sturdy) snap keeps everything contained. I like how the pen loop is behind the strap-the pen stays tucked in and secure. It’s deceptive how roomy it is, I have three inserts and a Travelers zip pocket and there’s plenty of room for a notebook or 4th insert.
I got the A6 Bella Build A Journal, and it is fantastic! I got it with four bands, a secretarial pocket on the left side, and a vertical pocket with a pen loop on the right side. I am using two A6 dot grid inserts, one A6 lined insert, two pocket sized lined inserts, and one Midori Weekly for 2026 in here, and it’s beautiful! I also have two small homemade inserts tucked in the back pocket for sketching and sudoku. I keep my favorite pen on the pen loop, have decked it out with some gold and copper charms and clips, and have tucked in some cute art inside. It literally smells like a boot! And it’s so smooth to the touch! It opens and closes beautifully, and it molds around my inserts so nicely. Will definitely be buying my future covers from here too!
Great mystery box. I got a A6 folio and a B6 tn. I definitely will be buying again
The Color is gorgeous and the leather is buttery soft. I think I'm going to come back and get the sidekick. I really wanted the personal cascade but that wasn't an option.
What a beautiful soft, pale yellow...it's one of my favorite colors. It is so soft and smells GREAT! I love the No. 10 style so much. This color reminded me of a little soft, pale yellow wallet my Grammy gifted to me when I was a little girl. Every time I look at Jasmine, I think of her ❤️. I love it, Chic Sparrow.
works well as described. is a little too tall for the nano size at the spine so the plastic had to fold/bend a bit in the middle but is mostly just a visual problem not a functional one. overall works great!
fast delivery, good quality, perfect size. logo text is a bit large but not very visible unless you’re looking for it.
