Design and document your little piece of paradise in a fun, practical and sturdy hardback journal. Well designed pages allow you to easily capture description, location and care instructions for your plants. Transfer the care details from these to the 'essential tasks' pages for each season to schedule your gardening year. Even has a section for recipes using any crops you grow. Can't clip in too many pictures of your plants or it won't fit back in its slip case.

It is a handy book for first time gardenersIt comes with a page on tools needed, with photos so know you're getting the correct thingsA glossary for terminology, to know what you are actually doing and to do research etcA few pages on different types of plants, indoor, outdoor, edible, etc which is handy to select what you have and search up things you might want to add to your collectionA second for wildlife too, also a little task on how to make your own little homes for the smaller wildlife in your gardenHome remedies for when plants become poorly and a blank sheet opposite to add your own remediesA page for top tips, a blank page for your ownA few dotted pages and grid pages to draw your garden plan ideasA few pages on gardens to visit and what inspiration you got from them(A few too many pages of these in my opinion)It has a section on seasons and what to do to prepare your garden so you can organize yourself which I find is quite helpful if you have an allotment or a large garden where you grow vegetables or possibly flowers needed, again, I do think there are a few too many pages involved, but then I don't need to use these pages as of yet.The pages detailing what you have planted is great, very simply presented; I personally tape the seed packet to the "Photo" section and fill out as necessary; I add what I would change for the following time I plantTowards the end of this section there is quite a few pages to add your own pictures, yet again, I believe this isn't really a necessary part of the book, maybe a couple of pages, but not as many as provided, also the journal part is quite long, but then again, I don't really need this part personally, it could be handy for others with active allotments.Then a part at the end for adding your own recipes is a cute touch, but I would rather take them out and add more pages about seeds plantedOverall, this book I would say would only last a year's gardening, A few too many pages of certain things, but otherwise it is a really lovely book for first time gardeners!Highly recommend, also, the book comes in a nice sleeve which keeps everything together and the book nice and cleanI will buy again

What a beautiful gardening book! I'm a self proclaimed advanced begginger - my parents always have been avid gardeners but I have only just got my own place with some lovely green space.This book is perfect. It has little glossary of tools and terminology, helpful tips and advice. It's beautifully laid out, with a calendar for sowing/planting & harvesting/flowering, pages for individual plants, blank pages for garden plans, recipes and many more. Definitely worth the money, it looks and feels great quality and I can't wait to organise my gardening life.

I have previously bought one of these for my niece, nephews and eldest child. I like filling it in so bought another when my second child was born. I really like the idea of all their memories being recorded in one place and I hope they take over the responsibility for filling it in when they're older.They're lovely books with a page to fill in every 3 months and then an additional page as an overview for the year. The only downside is that the pages say 'spring' 'summer'... Etc. This was fine for my eldest as he was born in the spring but my second was born in the winter. No biggy, ill just cross that out, it's only small, but just an odd thing to have when people are born throughout the year.

My travel journal arrived yesterday, and I have to say I really love it! It is a high-quality product, with smooth creamy sheets of paper, a beautiful blue fabric cover, and two ribbons. I really like the design, I like that they provide suggestions of places to see, food to eat, packing lists etc. The book itself is quite thick; there are plenty of lined pages for documenting your travels, and there is a pocket in the back for tickets and other small leaflets. It should last for quite a long time.The reason why I gave this four stars instead of five is that 1) Although I love that there's a map on which I can colour in the places I've visited, there are no country/state borders, which makes colouring in difficult. I was looking forward to seeing the places I've visited coloured in, it's aesthetically rather pleasing; 2) The ribbons. I don't like ribbons in the first place, but that's beside the point. These ribbons are long, and the material is stiff, which means it creases easily, and for someone who likes things to be neat, the ribbons are fiddly, impractical, and can be infuriating. I can trim the ribbons, and I can (try to) hand draw the country and state borders, so other than that, this is a fantastic journal!

I bought this as a gift for my boyfriend for our 5 year anniversary. It is a well made, sturdy book with plenty of space to write about your adventures. There are pages for photos, drawings etc and it is ideal for recording your time with someone. I wouldn't recommend it if you are looking to stick lots of folded pages within it as it is not really a "scrap book" sort of item. Sticking down pictures etc is fine but it wouldn't work if you were looking to do more than that.This item worked well for what I wanted and went down well as a gift. Really enjoying filling it in as it brings back a lot of memories!
