The Best Hardcover Journals

Hardcover journals are perfect for everyday journal entries, and they sport an official, professional appearance, making them ideal for a wide range of disciplines. Whether you need journals for men or women to use in professional settings, these are some of the best DIY journals you can get. Our monogram journal designs have a modern, sleek appearance and can be customized with five of your best photos, whether you're giving these to lawyers, engineers, health care workers, or keeping one for yourself. Choose the design color to match the recipient's favorite color, or match it to his or her school colors if they're still studying. Of course, you can personalize any of these journals with your own photos and text.

If you’re seeking hardcover journals that resemble leather journals, marble journals, or journals with covers and spines made of wood, we have just the thing. Our marble textured custom journals come in gray and white and resemble the real thing. You can even add gorgeous bronze borders around your photos and text. Our classic textured leather choice has the look of an authentic leather cover, along with a matching gray bookmark ribbon. We even have woodgrain journal designs that you can customize with rustic branches, monograms, and several different photo layouts. Simply drag and drop them from your Shutterfly account to make perfect journals for men and women.

Cute, Customized Wedding Journals

Your wedding day is one of the biggest occasions in your life, and it makes perfect sense that you'd want to document everything to do with it in leather journals and other cool journals. We have 6x8 personalized journals made specifically for weddings that feature hardcovers, attached bookmark ribbons, and 150 lined pages. Personalize the front cover with four photos from your wedding rehearsals or the event itself if you're making these cute journals after your wedding, and remember to include a stylish monogram and a special message. The back cover has room for one large photo and an extended message if you're giving one of these pretty journals to your spouse as a gift.

Unique, Personalized Journals for Kids

Kids love to sketch in journals and they also love to keep diaries. If you have a little kid, consider gifting him or her one of our daydream-themed kids journals where he or she can write about their big dreams and keep their thoughts. They'll be thrilled with the pretty pink design color, and the back cover is perfect for a personal photo. You can even write a special message across the spine for them. Our gallery journals with customizable design colors are great for boys and girls alike, and you'll have room for nine total photos, so they can really show off their personalities. Choose from our whole range of solid colors to make a design they're sure to love.

Pair DIY Journals With Notebooks and Stationery

Some people like to save their hardcover journals just for noteworthy days or, say, dream journaling. These people will appreciate a journal paired with one of our unique spiral notebooks for everyday use. These notebooks are excellent for school, whether your recipient is studying social sciences, applied mathematics, or even keeping a scholarly journal of research paper ideas. You could even design a notebook for each subject. Our photo gallery notebooks are ideal for up to nine photos, and you can choose a background from our full collection of patterns, in addition to solid colors. With text-only layouts and multiple photo layouts for every number of photos, you'll be able to design a front cover that's just right.

Journals have uses that are only limited by the recipient's imagination, and some people like to use journals to write drafts and practice their penmanship before writing an important letter, invitation, or any other handwritten document. Our customized cards and stationery sets make perfect companions when you gift our writing journals. We have mix-and-match sets for every occasion, including thank you notes, greeting cards for all kinds of events, and even stationery you create by uploading your own designs. With these sets, your writer will be ready for anything.

Add Custom Calendars to Your Home Office

Writing appointments and other reminders in daily journals certainly helps you remember them, and marking them on a cool custom calendar when you're done ensures that the event stays in your mind. When you give one of our custom wall calendars along with a personal journal, you're giving them every tool they'll need to stay on top of meetings, keep up with monthly events, and more. Choose from seasonal designs, marble desk calendar designs, and many more when you upload some of their best photos to their special calendar.
