Canvas One Line a Day: A Five-Year Memory Book (Yearly Memory Journal and Diary, Natural Canvas Cover)

What a great idea. I've never been a diary person. But I find I can write down a few lines most days. Looking forward to next year and see what happened last year on that same day.

Got this for my wife a few years ago and she loves it. The binding is great quality material and the inside is formatted well!

This memory journal is fantastic. You can only write a couple of sentences per day, so it's a limited in that way, but also what I love about it. No long entries, just a couple of little gems per day. My husband got one for us and I liked it so much, I ordered one for my bestie and her husband. Cute idea, easy to fill the entries, fun way to remember silly things and beautiful things that come with each day.

This has been the easiest way to "journal" that I've ever come across. It's simple, but it works!

I really like it. Not very many lines to write on, but sort of nice. You then just put the most important for the day.

Gifted this as part of my boyfriend's Christmas gift. Good gift for the start of the new year and for resolutions. Always good for self reflecting. It was recommended to me by a friend who said she enjoyed seeing her previous entries after a year. Great for beginner journalers as there is not a lot of pressure to write a lot. Just a few lines about your day.

Before I stumbled on this journal, I wasn't familiar with the multi-year journal format, and it really appeals to me in a way that other daily journaling doesn't. Having only a few lines per day to fill, along with the ability to compare days of the year across a five-year period, is making it extremely likely that I'll actually keep up with this style of journal where I've failed with, uh, literally every other daily journaling attempt in my life. Some people have complained about the size of the journal, but I don't know what they were expecting. The listing clearly describes the dimensions (cover is 4" x 6 1/2"; pages are about 3 5/8" x 6 1/8"), and the entire point is to make a very short entry every day. If you need more space, just... buy a normal journal? For the USD $15ish price, the quality is also excellent. The binding feels sturdy, and it being stitched means there's basically no chance of individual pages falling out. The pages open comfortably, especially after properly breaking in the binding (which is a technique you should google if you're not used to hardbacks). The cloth cover has a nice feel, though it may develop a tendency to attract and retain dust and pet hair. The paper is thick and takes ink well; I've posted photos of tests for three different fountain pens and inks, and you can see that there's minimal feathering or bleeding and practically no ghosting. (The photo with the test writing on February 14 is pretty color-accurate; the February 15 photo showing the backside of the test page is lighter/whiter than in person.) I also have had zero need to use a blotter; everything dried/absorbed just in the time it took to write each day's entry and close the cover again. I ended up discovering the Midori 5 Year Diary after I'd been using this one for over a month, and while I've decided I prefer the Midori enough to justify the significant price jump, I'm extremely bummed I'd already written in this One Line a Day journal so much, because it's a shame that I can't pass it on to someone else. (For anybody else trying to decide between the two, note that the Midori diary has shown zero bleeding or feathering, but there IS extremely visible ghosting—particularly with darker inks—so if that's a nonstarter for you, you'll want to avoid it. Writing space for is comparable between the One Line a Day journal and the Midori 5 Year diary—all my OlaD entries transferred to my new Midori journal—but watch out for the Mini version of the latter, which is smaller. Other features are easy to compare online.)

The pages are beautiful. The book is a bit bigger than a pocket sized notebook. You’ll still be able to fit it in your purse. It’s something I’ll definitely will carry around. I try so hard to journal but my long term and short term memory just isn’t the best. I have to do it right away before the memory of it fades away. So having it small enough to fit in my purse, I can quickly write it down. I find it interesting, intriguing, fun that there are only a few sentences you can write down AND you do it for five years. I’m excited to start this once the new year comes. Something I wish. I wish they would have explained what each thing in the book means. At first, I was confused about why there weren’t five years worth of pages until I looked at the reviews. I was also confused about what the 20 meant on each section until I found the answer in the reviews. So I really have to thank those in the reviews who might not know that they helped me understand the things I was confused about. Thank you! Now, mind you, this could be completely obvious to everyone but I have many medical conditions that affect my brain.

Birthday coming up, and a great time to start a five-year “time capsule” of sorts. The book is sturdy - what you want for five years of daily handling. Enough space for a couple of reasonable lines, or multiple phrases per day.

Ele é perfeito. Tem uma pagina por dia, um bom volume de linhas para cada ano e o formato dele vai ser ótimo para ver de forma rápida o que você escreveu no mesmo dia, todos os anos. Além de que ele é de excelente qualidade, a capa, a borda externa das páginas, muito bonito

Parfait et Magnifique. Couverture rigide en Lin.Pile ce que je recherchais. Attention aux dimensions, c'est vrai qu'il est petit mais ça ne me dérange pas

Jättefin bok! Över mina förväntningar till och med!
