I just wanted to let you know that Pastor Anthony ABSOLUTELY LOVED, LOVED, LOVED the binder. It is a beautiful piece of artwork. Thank you so much for helping me with every detail. The pen was just right too! The timing of the package was great. It arrived yesterday (Friday), and Pastor and his family were coming over for dinner, so it was just perfect.

Thanks again,

Nothing could have prepared me for the beauty of this binder. After seeing your merchandise in person, there is not one picture on your website that captures how exceptionally gorgeous your journals are. It is like trying to explain the Grand Canyon, some things you just have to see. Even the excellent photos you sent me of the piece before it arrived didn’t capture it true essence.

At first, I was quite hesitant about paying that much for a binder but this is much more than a binder it is a magnificent piece of art. There are no words that can explain how unique it is. The richness of the unusual green color, the craftsmanship, the durability, the design,the quality and texture of the leather, the gift wrapping, the cards, and the silver clip. It exceeded my expectations, standards and imagination and I am pretty vivid in all those areas.

I could go on and on and on but I will end by saying it is a treasure that I will have for many years to come and “like fine wine, it will only get better with time.” Pieces like this, are why that ole adage was created.

Thank you,

Legacy Journals was contacted in June by the Smithsonian Institution in Washington D.C. to provide a very special custom leather [guest] book for one of the programs at the 42nd Annual Folklife Festival on the National Mall.

The custom leather book was fairly straightforward - it was an xx-large custom leather book in burgundy color with the Smithsonian Institution’s logo customization on the cover and extra pages to accomodate the thoughts and sentiments of the many visitors to the “Bhutan: Land of the Thunder Dragon” program during this year’s Smithsonian Folklife Festival.

After its use during the festival, the book was taken to Bhutan and its new owner - Fifth Druk Gyalpo His Majesty King Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wanghuck (King of Bhutan) - carrying the sentiments, well wishes, and observations of the visitors to the Bhutan program at the festival.

Ms. Dee Phipps, our lead artist, attended the opening ceremony for the festival, and presented the book for the Smithsonian to His Majesty, the King’s, younger brother, His Royal Highness Prince Jigyel Ugyen Wangchuck, Prince of Bhutan.
