Michael does beautiful work. The journal is gorgeous.

Michael breathed new life into my husband’s late grandmother’s Bible. This precious keepsake, which was worn from many years of diligent use, can now be something we pass down ourselves thanks to Michael’s skillful hands. Michael kept me updated throughout the process, from receipt of the Bible to delivery, and he was careful to preserve all of the personal notes and scribbles. My husband and I are both thrilled with the end product!

I abaslutly love the work that was done, my bible is beautiful and just what I hoped it would be...He got it out sooner then the 3-4 weeks and simply delighted me. I will most defiantly be sending another in soon. Thank you so much

Making this purchase was a breeze. It turned out to be a beautiful Bible that smells just as good as it looks. It has soft leather with a worn character feel. It is a 10/10 purchase. The one downside, that is not really a big deal, is that the strap is a lighter color, and it wraps both around the front and the back with short ends. It doesn't "tie" very good. I had the feeling it was one long strap that could be wrapped around several times with an easy tuck on the second or third wrap around the book. Besides this minor miscommunication in photos, it is an amazing Bible I will have for years. Thank you for the time and effort you put into crafting this Bible's exterior.

I would absolutely recommend Michael's work if you need a journal, and if you need a custom order, then he's definitely the guy to go to. His craftsmanship is impeccable. He gave me exactly what I asked for - a beautiful, well-made journal. And he was finished with it ahead of schedule. He communicated with me frequently, and was even kind enough to re-ship the journal when the post office erroneously sent it back to him after a shipping snafu. Michael's a true professional all the way down the line.

I’m extremely happy with the finished product! My bible arrived today and the leather cover is so beautiful, exactly what I pictured. I have no words to describe how happy I am with it. This is something that will stay with me for life and Michael did an amazing job, I highly recommend him to others.

Michael was fabulous to work with and is a fine artist and craftsman. His beautifully bound pages of my wedding journal, all perfectly nestled in a beautiful custom cover, is the perfect gift for my husband to be on our wedding day. Thank you Michael!

What a fabulous creative and collaborative experience! Michael crafted such an exquisite and important book for us. The newlyweds receiving it will be overjoyed to have something so special. Michael was easy to work with, and patient with our decisions. His thoughtfulness, honesty, and eagerness to please made our project run smoothly. He delivered what he said he would deliver. We are extremely happy with the product, craftsmanship, and care that went into the book.

Michael was a joy to work with! Responsive, courteous and very helpful! And his finished product is just beautiful!

Thank you so much for a beautiful journal! I got this as a Christmas present for my mother and I know she'll be very happy with the finished product! I really appreciate all the communication and time you put into this. Hope to hear from you again when I need another journal!

We received your journal & it's absolutely wonderful. You're a class act - from the way the journal was packaged to the quality of the journal. My husband is very happy, and so am I. The page quality is exquisite, not to mention the binding and leather work. We'll be repeat customers. Thank you so very much! Kelly Wulf (& Howard)

There are not enough written (or spoken) words to describe Michael & his art. He is a true gentleman and his books are beyond "Art". I now have several of Michael's books and they are, well, 'perfect'; period. Thank you Michael - very much.

Awesome work! I will always cherish it.

I was very impressed, not only with the leather journal, but with the communication by the maker. I wasn't expecting to receive such prompt replies, considering I live in another country and time zone. Michael is lovely and I will definitely be coming back to do more projects in the future. I can't recommend Michael any higher to anyone wanting a handmade leather diary. Thank you Michael!

The maker was great to work with, easy to communicate with and made sure our book arrived within our timeframe. A little high on the price, but the quality was much higher than standard books in a store. A definite memory made with this purchase.
