Notebooks don't need to look pretty on the outside; we buy them to beautify the inside. Tucker Nichols boldly challenges the norm with his elaborately decorated notebooks.
'Plumb' is a artistic notebook revolution. Each season, San Francisco-based artist Tucker gets three artists to design three different notebooks -- there are no limits. The journals are quirky, tie-dyed, polka-dotted and way outside the box!
Each designer is asked to take their personal approach on the project which makes for some pretty creative, one-of-kind ideas. Notebooks vary in size and style from scrapbooks to mini-journals that fit in your back pocket. Some artists included new innovations such a little pockets on the inside.
Budding Artists and emerging writers will love these notebooks and sketchbooks that are truly worthy of a creative and unconventional mind.
