Smacker Journals, If’n Books limited-run note-jotters (so named for their size, apparently perfect for hitting people), are designed by artists and bound by a bookbinder. The artists, currently, are Alec Thibodeau, Jen Corace, Sarah Neuburger, and Ray Fenwick (who, if you are keeping track, I am still in love with). The bookbinder, always, is Deb Dormody, a professional bookmaker by trade whose albums, organizers and journals are sold all over the US and on Etsy, and whose bindings are as prettily homemade as a 1950’s Jell-O mold. The journals themselves are hand-printed in batches of one hundred in Rhode Island, where Deb’s deft fingers (and her proximity to Canada, ie, Mr. Fenwick) ensure a finished product that’s crafty, classy, and just DIY enough to find favor with hipsters and anti-hipsters alike.
