I didn’t want to buy an A6 folio or plastic cover for my Hobonichi Original and thought back to high school and college when students folded craft paper around textbooks.
Step One: Use Rhodia or another fountain pen friendly sheet of paper slightly larger than A5 to cover the A6 Hobonichi Original.Step Two: Mark the top and bottom edges on the inside paper cover just above and below the margins of the Hobonichi.Step Three: Mark the left and right edges of the Hobonichi allowing extra space for the spine.Step Four: Fold over and tape in place over the Hobonichi.
By using fountain pen friendly paper I can write directly on the cover without damaging my notebook and replace when damaged.
