The Stash Handcrafted Leather Notebook from Bull & Stash

"Introducing your last notebook ever." That's the tagline for the innovative leather notebook company Bull & Stash. I always enjoy hearing about promising startups and considering the successful funding of the Bull & Stash Kickstarter and Indiegogo campaigns in the past eighteen months, it's safe to say founder and CEO Cameron Huber has found a niche that needed filling.

Just 23 years old, Cameron is finishing up a degree in Architecture at the University of Oregon. Varied internships piqued his entrepreneurial spirit and he has been able to manage and promote Bull & Stash while still in school... no small feat!

If you're the type who loves a really nice notebook, the refillable, loose leaf Stash and Travel Stash notebooks feature an oiled leather cover, full metal hardware and bleed-resistant 60 lb paper. 

I can't imagine a writer, artist or lackadaisical doodler who wouldn't enjoy one of these handsome notebooks. The Stash measures 5.5 x 8.75 inches (14cm x 22cm), while the Travel Stash is 3.4 x 6 inches (8.6cm x 15cm). There are paper refill options... lined, blank drawing paper, and soon-to-be dot-grind.

The notebooks are initially hand-crafted in the Pacific Northwest using American cowhides and then are sent to Florence, Italy where they are hand-finished. Note that the covers may have natural blemishes and numbers... these marks are a result of the tanning process.

The giveaway details: Bull & Stash will be sending The Stash Notebook along with a refill package of drawing paper to one lucky recipient. This in an international giveaway - yay! End date: Saturday, March 19, 2016.
