Beautiful Journals

Inventory is fun!  No!  Wait! Let me clarify before you burn me at the stake.  Receiving new inventory is fun!  Better? J

It doesn’t matter if it is reordered or brand new.  I just love opening big boxes of beautiful journals.  Each one is wonderful.  As I prepare them for storage and shipping, I often think about the hands that will eventually hold them, write in them, dream in them.

With clean hands and work surface, we prepare the journals to be shrink wrapped so they stay pristine through the mail.  We put our inventory tag on the outside of the wrap so the journal is never marred by it.  When done with an inbound shipment, I have these beautiful gems all over my work surface, ready for new homes.

Though most of the receiving and shrink wrapping is now done by someone else, I find it irresistible.  I sneak in quietly, prepare the journal—and promptly get busted when I turn on the heat gun, lol.

I get to see, touch, and admire journals whenever I want.  Talk about a dream job!  When I get ready to review a journal, I purchase one (at retail, tax included) and enjoy it even more as I remove it from its protective cover…just as our customers do.

Every time I start a new journal, I will review it for you.  From paper quality to durability, once it’s mine, I’ll put it to the test and let you know what I think.

For now, I’m going to enjoy getting the new shipments ready and gazing at all the “eye candy” only a journal keeper can truly appreciate.  Come join me at http://www.writeyourmindjournals.com!
