Field Notes Pocket

I’ve recently switched back to good old Field Notes as my pocket notebook of choice, however there was one thing I missed from my Travelers Journal: the Kraft paper pocket. It sits on the inside of the cover and lets you store things like small notes, stickers, cards, you name it. I found it really handy, and I wanted something similar to add into my Field Notes. One popular hack is taping an index card to the inside, but I really didn’t like the visual appearance of tape all over the cover. Instead I found a way to use library book card holders, and the result is much more inline with what I was looking for.

It’s really easy to put together; just cut the edge closet to the spine, then on the top layer cut up and to the corner, finally glue it to the inside cover.

This was such a happy little discovery and I’m delighted to have these on my Field Notes now!
