My Journal Addiction

Welcome to My Journal Addiction, a small stationery business from Slovakia. Behind the scenes, it’s just me—Alexandra—and my partner Andrej, creating high quality premade journals with our own hand-drawn designs.

My Journal Addiction began long before our first journal launched in 2021 — it started with a girl, a growing pile of notebooks, and a daily ritual that felt more like therapy than routine. With Andrej’s encouragement and a whole lot of late-night planning, that private habit slowly turned into a product — and eventually, a brand. We didn’t come from a background in publishing or design — just a programmer and a lawyer who fell in love with the idea of making something meaningful together. What we lacked in experience, we made up for with passion, curiosity, and a whole lot of figuring things out along the way. Launching our first journal on Etsy was both terrifying and exhilarating, but the kind feedback from our community gave us the courage to keep going.

Now, years later, our mission is still simple: to make journaling feel easy, cozy, and maybe just a little addictive — the good kind. The kind you’ll actually want to stick with ❤️

ADDICTED FROM THE START

Why Journals?

Everything began with a simple desire to slow down, find clarity, and reconnect with the present moment. Getting all the daily chaos onto the pages of a journal felt surprisingly freeing — and from the very first pages, I was hooked. Over time, journaling became more than just a habit; it became a grounding part of my everyday life.

With My Journal Addiction, we wanted to invite others into that feeling. That’s why our journals come premade — thoughtfully designed and ready to use, so you can enjoy journaling without the pressure to be artistic or spending hours setting up the themes. And if you're feeling creative, there's always enough space to make it your own — to color in the pages, add little touches, and let your personality shine through. 

Our journals are created to be your everyday companion — a cozy, inviting place for your thoughts, plans, and all the little moments in between.

CREATING SOMETHING SPECIAL

Our Process

We create carefully designed, premade bullet-style journals that blend artistic expression with practical structure. Every journal begins with hand-drawing the themes, which we later digitize and pair with carefully chosen materials that bring our planners to life. From the ribbon to the paper, every element is selected from trusted European manufacturers to ensure the highest standards of quality and sustainability.

Our planners are printed in Czechia and finished by hand — a process that gives each journal its own subtle uniqueness. No two notebooks are exactly the same, so when you hold yours, it's a one of a kind.

Rooted in connection & sustainability

Mission & Values

Our mission is to create high-quality, eco-friendly journals that inspire connection.

We are committed to sustainability, using ethically sourced materials, vegan-friendly covers and renewable energy in our production processes.

  • CO2 Neutral

    Since 2023 all our journals

    are CO2 Neurtral!

  • FSC Certified Paper

    The paper we use comes from environmentally, socially, and economically responsible sources.

  • Vegan Cover Material

    We source PETA approved
    vegan leather covers from Italy.

But above all, we’re committed to making something that feels personal — because we know how powerful it can be to slow down, put pen to paper and meet yourself there.
