Comment: Hey this journal is so cool!!! I absolutely love it. It’s totally crafty and so eco-hip. I have been using it for a poetry journal. By the way where do you find the neat metal page holder piece?
Response: I'm so glad you like it, and happy to hear you're already using it! The metal thingie is called a prong fastener and you can buy them in boxes of 50 or so in office supply stores (Office Depot, Staples, etc.). They're pretty cheap - bonus!

Comment: Thank you so much, Natalie! Your box finally arrived yesterday and boy did I need it. Yesterday started well enough, but it just went completely downhill from there. One of those days when no matter how hard you try, the universe conspires against you. So thank you for a nice box. Your journal is just wonderful. I absolutely loved the paper scraps! Even the box itself is really nice. It matches my tablecloth, too. You did a great job customizing it to my taste, so thank you very much! You made my bad day so much easier to handle. I hope you are doing well and won´t be needing any new boxes anytime soon. Have a great day!
