William Morris Strawberry Thief Floral Art Nouveau 3 Ring Binder

The cover of the notebook looked very cheap and like it had faded on the sides where a seam in the art work clearly showed on both sides of the front cover. It was so not a $30 value and very disappointing. The finish was just cheap and “plasticy” maybe that’s all I should have expected but I’ve paid for pretty notebooks in the past and this just was way way overpriced for the quality and look.

Overall, I love my new BOS. I am currently in the process of updating and "modernizing" my original BOS, and THIS is the product I chose to house all of my information in, and so far, it is working out wonderfully. With THIS product, and its 3-ring binder that allows for ease of page insertion and removal, I am able to put my pages in wherever I want to in the book, in whatever order I want to, which I was UNABLE to do with my original, where the pages were sewn in to the binder. Also, it is made large enough to accommodate a multitude of pages; plenty to complete any large project. It has layered pocket inserts on BOTH the front AND back covers, for extra storing of papers/clippings, and it is made from a durable hard plastic material (regular binder). Although I am pleased with how it did come, I was actually expecting it to look more like what was pictured in the photo that was advertised. The advertisement says that the item is "blue-green" in color and the DESIGN of the book also APPEARS to be made of a "faux leather" FABRIC, NOT simply a design PRINTED onto a PLASTIC binder. And the book I received is more of a "gun metal grey" or "light black" color.

I was very pleased with my book. I took pictures & displayed it on FB . I love the fact that I could completely design everything. Awesome was very pleased.
