This vintage sketch notebook features an original cover from an old, unwanted book that has been rescued from a library requiring space for new books. The inner works are removed by hand and refilled with unlined sketch paper from sustainably managed forests, giving new life to an old book. You will receive the book design shown in the first couple of pictures.
Why we love it
Every notebook sketchbook is a true 'one-off'. Old unwanted books are donated by libraries, second hand book shops, and publishing companies and About Blanks remove the old inner works and refill the hardback cover with sustainable blank sketch paper. The blank paper has a light cream shade and the texture makes it perfect for sketching and making notes. Because the old covers are reused, each About: Blanks sketch notebook is different and therefore unique and one of a kind.
Hand made in The Netherlands at a social employment facility, where people with a disability or poor job prospects can get a job, and through this participate in society. The brand's main aim is to make products that stimulate personal stories and development for users, and also for its co-workers.
Measures approximately 14cm wide x 19cm long.
Materials: Original vintage hardback book cover with FSC approved paper pages.

I discovered these oxygen tablets for toilet cleaning on another eco site, but they were out of stock, so I searched and found them on green tulip. The ordering process was very easy and delivery was very quick, with sustainable packaging. I also received a very nice, friendly thank you message after my order. I will look at green tulip again, once my current eco products run out. Thank you, green tulip
They are great, I love them. Just pop one into the toilet bowl, leave a couple of minutes to fizz up, then brush the whole toilet bowl. They smell lovely and fresh and clean effectively. It’s great not to be polluting our waterways and not throwing away endless plastic bottles, as they come in a biodegradable wrap.
Ordered deodorant, toothbrushes and interdental brushes and they were delivered quickly, in great condition and eco packaging.
Prices were the best I could find and I love that they're a Living Wage employer.
Great products and peace of mind because they're ethically run. Definitely will order again
I couldn't be more pleased with every aspect of my Green Tulip experience. The reusable food storage containers are not only highly functional but gorgeous as well, and the swift, plastic-free packaging was awesome.
Green Tulip are so accommodating. I ordered their Kochi stainless steel food containers which are an ideal size for me as a single person and perfect for freezing. Green Tulip were happy to order in more for me and to let me know when they'd received them. I shall definitely be looking at what else I can order from them. Their delivery times are quick as well, an excellent company.
