Dark Green Velvet Notebook - 80 pages - Make It Happen

An A5-sized notebook with 80 pages inside a dark green velvet cover and the words "Make it Happen" on the front. The velvet is smooth, not fluffy — it has the refined, close-nap texture of upholstery or tailoring rather than the plush softness of a cushion. The dark green reads as serious and grounded: a colour associated with focus, ambition, and quiet confidence. Combined with the "Make it Happen" directive on the front, this notebook has a decisively action-oriented personality — it is for writing down plans and then executing them.

What You Get

• 80 pages for planning, note-taking, journaling, goal-setting, or creative writing.
• Dark green velvet polyester cover. Smooth, soft to the touch, with a low-sheen finish that looks and feels premium. The velvet has a visible nap — it catches light differently depending on the angle, giving the cover subtle depth.
• A5 size: 21 × 14.5 cm with a 1.7 cm spine. The standard size for daily notebooks — fits in a bag, sits well on a desk, and provides enough writing area per page to be useful without feeling sprawling.
• Lightweight: 260g. Easy to carry daily.
• Durable binding that holds pages securely.

Velvet vs. Plush

The Wellness & Gratitude range includes two distinct cover types: velvet notebooks (like this one) and plush soft-book journals. The difference matters. Velvet is smooth, sophisticated, and slim — it belongs on a desk, in a meeting, in a structured bag. The plush dream journals are fluffy, padded, and compact — they belong on a nightstand. The velvet notebooks are also larger (A5) and thinner (1.7 cm spine) compared to the plush journals (16 × 12 cm, 4 cm spine). If you are choosing between the two types, think about where the notebook will live and what role it plays: velvet for daily planning and forward-looking writing, plush for bedside reflection and dream recording.

The Dark Green

Green velvet has a long history as a material of study, ambition, and intellectual seriousness — think library reading lamps, writing desks, and card tables. The dark green is the most traditionally grounded colour in the velvet notebook range, which also includes black, purple, lavender, light blue, and dark blue. Where purple and lavender are more expressive and the blues are calmer, the dark green is decisive and focused. It suits people who are drawn to classic materials and understated quality rather than bright colour or whimsy.

"Make it Happen"

The phrase on the cover sets the notebook's tone. It is not reflective ("I am thankful for"), not dreamy ("Magic in my mind"), and not philosophical ("Embrace the journey"). It is a direct instruction — written on the front of the book you open every day. For goal-setters, planners, list-makers, and anyone who uses writing as a tool for action rather than reflection, the title reinforces the purpose every time you pick it up. Some people find that kind of daily visual cue surprisingly effective — it turns the notebook from a passive container into an active prompt.

Care

Velvet attracts lint and dust over time. Brush gently with a soft cloth or lint roller to keep the nap looking fresh. Wipe the cover with a slightly damp cloth for marks — avoid soaking the velvet. Store upright or flat; the slim 1.7 cm spine means it slots easily into a bookshelf or bag.

A Note on Gifting

The dark green velvet and "Make it Happen" message make this a strong gift for a specific kind of person: someone practical, goal-oriented, and drawn to understated quality. It works well for New Year (when people are setting goals and making plans), for graduations (a prompt to take the next step), for promotions or new jobs (encouragement in a useful format), or for birthdays where you know the recipient appreciates functional, beautiful stationery. The dark green is gender-neutral and professional enough to suit a wide range of tastes. Of the velvet notebooks in the range, this is the most action-oriented and the least introspective.

Common Questions

Is this notebook lined or blank?
The 80 pages provide space for writing. Check the product images for the specific page layout.

How does the velvet cover compare to the plush dream journals?
Different texture and format entirely. Velvet is smooth, slim, and refined (A5 size, 1.7 cm spine). The plush journals are fluffy, padded, and compact (16 × 12 cm, 4 cm spine). Velvet suits daily planning and desk use; plush suits bedside reflection.

Will the velvet wear or show marks over time?
Velvet develops a natural patina with regular use — the nap may flatten slightly in areas you handle frequently, which many people consider part of its character. For a fresh look, brush gently with a soft cloth. Avoid getting the cover wet.

Which velvet notebook colour is the most popular for gifts?
The dark green and black are the safest choices for gifting because they are the most neutral. The purple, lavender, and blue options are more expressive and suit recipients with a known colour preference.

Is this the same size as a standard A5 notebook?
Very close. At 21 × 14.5 cm, it is essentially A5 — the standard size for daily notebooks and planners.
