{"product_id":"the-long-way-home-journal","title":"The Long Way Home A5 Journal | Salt \u0026 Story","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Long Way Home is a white A5 journal with a small coastal vignette on its cover. A pale-sailed boat moves across blue water near a lighthouse and low shoreline buildings. Reflections gather beneath the sail, while generous white space surrounds the illustration and keeps the journal’s cover quiet and open.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA purpose-made coastal vignette\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe artwork is a contained composition created for this journal. It belongs to the same visual family as The Long Way Home canvas, with its boat, guiding light, and approach to shore, while using a different arrangement suited to a notebook cover. Softly resolved edges allow the water and coastline to sit naturally against the surrounding white.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA familiar notebook scale\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe nominal A5 portrait format and rounded outer corners give the journal a simple, practical shape. The illustration occupies a modest area of the front rather than filling the whole surface. Its warm sail and cooler water provide a clear focal point, with enough room around them for the cover to remain light when placed among books or stationery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA place for what the day brings\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eKeep the journal at a desk, beside a reading chair, or with the things taken along for a quiet afternoon. It can hold reflections, plans, observations from a walk, or ideas that need more space than a hurried note. The cover offers a small coastal view at the beginning of that writing time, without prescribing what the pages should become.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrom Salt \u0026amp; Story\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis Mirabilia world is shaped by the relationship between movement and return. Boats depart and come back, weather changes, and familiar places remain recognizable. The Long Way Home holds that idea in a small scene of a sail approaching a lit shoreline. It leaves the larger journey open to the person who carries the notebook.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe journal makes a thoughtful gift for a writer, sailor, lighthouse admirer, or someone who values an attractive object for everyday reflection. A canvas and magnet from the same artwork family are offered separately; the journal retains its own distinct cover illustration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Mirabilia Boutique","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48466287427790,"sku":null,"price":27.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0633\/7180\/4878\/files\/the-long-way-home-a5-journal.png?v=1792771926","url":"https:\/\/www.mirabiliaboutique.com\/products\/the-long-way-home-journal","provider":"Mirabilia Boutique","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
