They allow you to create the perfect reference series just for you, covering a range of subjects related to traditional crafts and sustainable living. The Almost Off Grid Hedgerow Wine Making Journal is an essential tool for any aspiring wine maker and the ideal gift for all homemade wine enthusiasts.
This journal series came about when Bev realised she had books on all sorts of subjects, yet many of them were sitting on the shelf largely unused. When you buy a book on a topic that interests you, such as wine recipes, you tend not to revisit all of it. Some of the book appeals, some isn't, and then the book is often forgotten. Almost Off Grid Journals cover a range of subjects related to traditional crafts and sustainable living, enabling you to create your own reference library for ongoing use.
This journal measures 17.0 x 24.3cm and has 150 pages in total, with book industry perfect binding and a glossy cover designed to easily wipe clean. It is printed on high quality white paper which minimises ink bleed-through and is suitable for pen or pencil.
