Brand Background and Product Context

Sarica Studio is a small stationery shop in Delaware, USA, operated by Sarica and Sam. The brand offers notebooks, stickers, inserts, and accessories, featuring vintage art, licensed graphics, and original illustrations. Products are shipped from the studio, and the brand shares creative journaling and planning content on social media.

Notebook Formats and Sizes

Sarica Studio’s notebooks are designed to be compatible with Traveler’s Notebook (TN) systems and are available in two primary formats:

  • Standard TN Size Notebooks – Larger books that fit regular Traveler’s Notebook covers with page dimensions suited for daily writing, planning, or journaling.
  • Passport TN Size Notebooks – More compact notebooks that fit passport-sized TN covers and provide a portable writing option for notes, lists, or travel logs.

Both sizes come in different cover themes and styles, such as floral, botanical, and minimal colors.

Paper and Binding

The notebooks feature lightly gridded internal pages with a 3.5 mm grid that offers subtle structure for writing without being intrusive.

Many notebooks use Tomoe River Paper (Sanzen), a lightweight paper known for its smooth surface and excellent performance with fountain pens. This allows for a high page count in a slim profile, making the notebooks ideal for TN inserts.

Sarica Studio’s notebooks have a thread-stitched binding that allows them to lay flat and increases durability.

Design and Cover Themes

Notebook covers available from Sarica Studio include a range of colours and graphic themes, such as:

  • Rose and Floral designs
  • Ginkgo and Fern botanical motifs
  • Graphite, Chestnut Brown, Cream, and other minimal colourways

These cover styles come in standard and passport formats, so users can choose a design that fits their notebook and personal style.

Their compact sizes and lightweight construction make them suitable both as standalone notebooks and as inserts within larger planner or journal setups.
