CLASSIC VS LIFESTYLE:
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PLUM PAPER'S CUSTOM NOTEBOOKS

Notebook choices can often feel stale, as it seems that there aren’t many options beyond a basic lined spiral notebook or composition book. Plum Paper offers a completely customizable notebook so you can create one that fits your organizational and writing needs. We offer two different Custom Notebook types: our Classic Notebooks and Lifestyle Notebooks. Read below to learn the differences between the two and how you can customize them to create the perfect notebook to match your lifestyle and organizational style.

CLASSIC NOTEBOOK LAYOUTS
Our Classic Notebooks are perfect for those looking for a standard notebook they can customize. Whether you want to journal, draw, or simply take notes, we offer a wide range of inside-page layout options for these notebooks, including:
Our lined page options are perfect for note-taking and journaling, while our Dotted Pages allow you to create the ideal bullet journal. Our Classic Notebooks are also available with Meeting Pages and Gradebook Pages. A notebook with Meetings Pages is an excellent tool for working professionals who regularly meet with clients or internal team members and is available in our A5 and 7x9 sizes. Our Gradebook Notebooks are extremely popular among teachers. These classic notebook pages are a great way to keep track of student grades, attendance, and more, and are available in our 7x9 and 8.5x11 sizes.
