Handcrafted notebooks made with old book covers

Description
Browsing the book store today, I came upon a few handcrafted About Blanks sketch books. I was fascinated with the concept and liked how they breathed new life into these old book covers.
With a lot of these old book covers, you get products that appear imperfect because they have become slightly worn with time. For some people, this might be considered a failing. But the slightly faded letters and inscriptions gives the book a sense of timelessness, and instantly gives the notebook a sense of history and uniqueness.
The notebooks are made with high quality blank sketch paper, with dimensions that match up with those of the original book. Left on the shelf, it will be impossible to tell them apart from any other book!
I ended up splurging on 2 of them, after spending a long time looking through the collection available at the store.
One problem is that the collection available at the store seems to be larger than the one available through the website. And with items such as these, you really want the opportunity to feel it in your hands and imagine yourself writing in it, so that's a bummer.
One cool idea is to send them your own old hard cover books and to have them transform them into a personal and unique notebook.
