3 Simple Ways to Maintain Your Learning Notebook or Journal

There is something irreplaceably timeless about the feel and smell of a real leather notebook or journal. Whether used to write down creative ideas, personal reflections or daily to-do lists, a leather cover adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to your writing experience.
However, to ensure that it lasts a long time and stays looking like new, it is essential to maintain it properly. In this blog post we will explore three simple yet effective solutions to preserve and protect your beloved leather notebook or journal.

1. Clean regularly

A light scratch on leather is easy to remove. A good way is to polish away the scratch with a slightly damp cloth and then briefly point a hairdryer at the scratch(es). This causes the resin of the leather to rise. Then complete the treatment by rubbing the scratched area with a dry cloth. See below the results you can achieve within 1 minute:

2. Conditioning

Conditioning is essential to maintain the leather's suppleness and prevent it from becoming brittle. Invest in a leather conditioner or leather cleaner and apply it every three to six months, depending on usage. Conditioning not only restores the leather's natural oils, but also improves its shine, keeping your notebook cover looking luxurious for years to come.

3. Store properly

We recommend that you use the cotton drawstring bag to store your Vultera notebook.

The drawstring bag is supplied as standard with your notebook or journal and protects the notebook against scratches, stains and sunlight. If you are not using the drawstring bag, make sure you store the notebook in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Sunlight can fade and dry out the leather, while high humidity can lead to mold growth. Choose a bookshelf or a drawer in a cupboard.

A leather notebook or journal is more than just a writing utensil; it is a treasured possession that deserves good maintenance and protection. By following these three simple solutions you can ensure that your leather notebook remains well preserved and protected for years to come
