Think about it, you have created some brilliant designs maybe for wallpaper, greetings cards or icons now why not add them to the cover of a notebook? Everyone loves stationery! Simply supply your cover design, let us know how many blank leaves you would like inside (25 is a good number and will make the books around 4mm thick) and we’ll print then deliver within a week.
What an easy solution for repurposing your work! You’ve already spent the time creating some magnificent illustrations for your children’s book or art prints so why not drop them into illustrator, convert them to line art and bingo, you’ve got a colouring book or a notebook too!

Introducing the new Seize The Day journals. The hardback journals are available in four striking colourways: Terracotta, Silver Grey, Plum and Black. All from the Winter&Co Wibalin range. Complimenting each other superbly they work as a set of four or an individual purchase.
The product logo is gold foiled on the front and debosses slightly into the textured Wibalin for a very classy finish. You’re going to love picking this journal up and jotting down your thoughts every day.
The inside pages have plenty of prompts and sections for you to fill in and are interspersed with inspirational statements from prominent figures.
Sealing each journal is a printed belly band, which neatly tucks into the front and back cover.
The highest production values were chosen by the guys at Better Day Studio and the end result is an impressive and very desirable finished publication.

Yes, two or four cover designs work well with the number of pages we can print on a sheet. Maybe dip your toe in the water and then once you start selling the notebooks, you will know which are the popular colours.
For up to 40 pages we recommend stapling (wire stitching) but we can do this method for up to 72 pages as long as you don't mind some bounce.
Stapling is actually a really good binding method for notebooks because the pages will sit flat.
For 40 or more then perfect binding, with a glued square spine is a robust choice. This method has no top end so is great for 100,200,300 pages plus.
40,60 and 100 inside pages (which is 20,30 or 50 leaves) work well for notebooks. That gives a nice 3-8mm thickness and plenty of pages for the recipient to jot down their thoughts and doddles.
Yes we can! This is a really high end, super premium addition to really finish off your notebook in style. The set up costs are quite high so ribbon markers are best saved for print runs of 500 copies or more.
This is a process we can do but the set up costs are £500+ so not ideal for small print runs. They do look great though but we are not sure you will be able to add an extra £1-2 on your sale price just to cover the costs on the rounding? Maybe go for a coool design instead as a wow factor.
We can print hardback notebooks with a material cover. You could choose one of the leather-type finishes from Winter & Company or GF Smith. The gold corners, ribbons and elastic wrap arpund band or not solutions we offer at Ex Why Zed.
Lamination is a thin layer of transparent film that we apply to the cover of notebooks to prtoect the ink from cracking. It comes in a matt or gloss finish. You wouldn't really know it is there and it only costs a few pounds extra but without it, your ink is likely to crack, scuff and it will be the first thing people see. Lamination adds extra longuevity.
Unfortunately, they do. VAT (valkue addedd tax) in the UK is 20%. A weird HRMC quirk means that notebooks have vat but books, booklets and coloiuring books do not. Sorry, we don't make the rules 🙂
We have no minimum order so you can print just the one Notebook for a promotional piece to get people excited about you future product line. When you're ready to hit the market we have extensive litho printing capacity to fulfil a large order in the tens of thousands. So if you need just handful for family and friends or a massive print run for every department store in the land, then we have you covered.
For a perfect bound notebooks we will need your cover supplied as a spread. Your front cover should be on the right, spine through the centre and back cover on the left. It looks great having a pattern or design that goes right across the outer cover.
For more information have a read through our perfect binding set up guide.
If you’re going for a wire stitched notebook (under 40 pages) then we’ll just need a pdf with all the pages in reading order.
Always remember crop marks and 3mm bleed on each edge.
If the inside pages are blank (unprinted) then you don't need to worry about sending artwork for them. Easy!
