You’ll take in a bit of the Old West every time you sketch or write in the Taking Texas with Me™ Cowboy Journal. It’s handcrafted, of course, by a born ‘n bred Texas artisan.

Each Taking Texas with Me™ Cowboy Journal comes with an attractive bookmark that notes the journal’s authenticity and makes recommendations for its care. The back of the bookmark is blank; it can be used for a personal message.  The journal comes in two different sizes - 6" x 9"  or 5" x 6.25."  The larger journal is $64.99 and the smaller one is $59.99.  Just click on which size you'd like for us to send to you.

The leather on this journal is 100% natural cowhide. It still carries the marks, characteristics and sometimes parts of the brand of the animal that wore it. Many of the hides came from animals processed through the stock yards in Fort Worth. The fastener that keeps the journal closed is a piece of whitetail deer antler gathered on a Texas ranch.

Inside are 100 pages (200, if you count both sides) of durable, acid-free, cotton-content paper in natural white. The ranger star on the front is the finishing touch, a respectful reminder that the journal came from the Lone Star State. 

If you would like to include one of our Made in Texas by a fellow Texan mesquite pen's, please select from the dropdown menu - each pen is made of Native Texas wood with a Texas flair (antler, mesquite, liveoak, cactus, turquoise, etc).
