The Impact of Your Order

Your order, measured in waste diverted.

Each journal is made from cotton offcuts and remnants that have already been through one production cycle. Instead of ending up in landfill, they become paper. Tell us how many journals your institution needs and see what that keeps out of the waste stream.

From Fabric to Paper

Paper with a soul, and a second life.

Textile production leaves behind enormous amounts of offcuts, remnants, and fibres. We redirect cotton waste into a new form: paper, made into journals designed for everyday use.

01

Reclaim

Cotton textile offcuts and remnants are collected from Jaipur's textile workshops.

02

Transform

Our papermakers turn the cotton waste into paper, working entirely by hand.

03

Bind

The sheets are cut and bound into A5 journals of 100 pages.

04

Deliver

Ready-made or customised for your institution, event, or programme.

Journals made from reclaimed cotton textile waste

Every page was once fabric.

The weight and texture of cotton paper is something no mill-made sheet can match. It takes ink beautifully and ages well, and it carries the story of where it came from.

When you choose these journals for your institution, you are choosing a gift, a giveaway, or a notebook that starts a conversation about how materials are used.

Who We Are

A small studio, and the many hands behind it.

Daffodil Studio began with a question: why do the things we own so rarely feel like they were made for us, with care, with time, with intention?

We found our answer in Jaipur, among artisans who measure their work in seasons, not shipments. What began as one question has become a small, devoted community of papermakers, printers, quilters, and weavers, each lending their hand to what we make together.

We work across circular materials, paper, and textile craft to create objects for people and organizations looking for something beyond the conventional. Every piece that reaches you carries all of our hands, not just one.

Daffodil Studio is a small business registered and based in Jaipur, Rajasthan, India. Alongside our journals, we make handmade cotton textile accessories, including animal keychains, for retail and wholesale customers.

"You are special and the materials you surround yourself with should be special too."
