Midori B6 Slim 5 Year Journal with Beige Embroidered Floral Cover
The Midori B6 Slim 5 Year Journal Embroidery Flower Beige is made for people who want to capture time with calm, consistency, and perspective. Each date gives you five spaces—one per year—so you can write today while rereading what you wrote on the same day in previous years. It is ideal for anyone who enjoys short daily writing, meaningful routines, and Japanese stationery crafted to be used and kept.
Concept and design
The beige cloth cover features vibrant floral embroidery with a warm, tactile three-dimensional effect. The design highlights the thickness of the threads and the silhouette of each flower, giving the cover a crafted, textured presence. The spine is finished with elegant gold foil stamping, adding a refined touch that makes this diary feel special on your desk or bookshelf.
Interior layout and writing experience
This diary lets you view five years of entries for the same day, creating a unique way to write and reflect at the same time. You can record what happens today while looking back on last year’s moments, rediscovering details you may have forgotten and noticing how your thoughts evolve. Even a single sentence a day becomes a meaningful record when you read it back with distance.
Practical details and organization
The index section and the ruled-line details change with each month, adding subtle variety—like different “stitches” that bring color to your daily pages. The first page of every month includes space to note important dates and anniversaries. It also includes a prologue at the beginning and an epilogue at the end, plus extra pages for personal notes, making it easy to start the year with intention and close it with a short reflection.
Paper and binding
Inside you will find MD Paper, known for its smooth, reliable performance with ink. For a complete writing setup, you can pair it with a fountain pen such as the Midori MD Fountain Pen. The thread-sewn binding opens comfortably and is built for long-term use across five years, and it includes a ribbon bookmark.
What’s in the box
Includes the 5-year diary with embroidered cloth cover and a transparent PVC protective cover designed to shield the embroidery and help keep the diary looking beautiful over time. (Photos are for reference; slight variations may exist compared to the original product).

Frequently asked questions
