As the year draws to a close, we'd like to say a huge thank you to everyone who has been part of this fantastic 10th anniversary year at Mark+Fold — customers old and new, collaborators and friends, and of course our fantastic and ever-growing team!
Here's a round-up of some of our highlights from the past 12 months...
February | Celebrating International Womens' Day with Floks and Restaries
In February, we spent a night at the beautiful Restaries guest house in Suffolk (with 100% UK-made wool bedding from Floks), with fellow female-founders Sophie (Floks) and Gem (Restaries), to create the ultimate retreat: a night away for a good night's sleep and an opportunity for some uninterrupted journaling time.

April | Mark+Fold x Marmor Paperie
In April, we had the great pleasure of collaborating with our friend Lucy McGrath at Marmor Paperie. These individually hand-marbled notebook covers did not hang around for long, so well done if you managed to get hold of one!

July | Travel Journal launch
In July, we launched a brand new format: our first Travel Journal. As with all new designs, we invited customers to share their views, and the result is a slim journal featuring glassine paper pockets to collect mementoes on your travels, a packing list and itinerary pages for that all-important preparation!

August | 2026 Diaries revealed
As has become tradition, in the last week of August we revealed the 2026 Diary cover designs we had been busily working away on for many months before. And thanks to our 10th birthday this year, we had the excellent excuse of creating no fewer than 6 designs this time — including the new Navy Linen and a Special Edition Neon Green with wrap-around typography.

September | Back to School
At the end of August, we launched our 2026 Diaries + Planners and filled the shelves with new goodies for your desks in our Back to School range. And we invited the team to share their memories of school days, from favourite teachers to memorably good pencil sharpeners!

October | Avocado Green returns
Since its first appearance in 2020, we have had countless requests to bring back the beautiful Avocado Green Leather Cover. This colour had to be made specially at the UK tannery, so the minimum order required some commitment — but we decided that our 10th birthday was a good excuse to go for it! So it is back again, in limited numbers, and it may not reappear again for some time (you have been warned!)

October | Margo Selby Shuttle II launch
We first collaborated with Margo in 2018 and we were thrilled to welcome her back for this 10th anniversary collaboration, featuring her large-scale artwork inspired by computers.

November | 10th Birthday Party & Shoreditch Pop-up
It's difficult to sum up everything that happened in November! From our fantastic 10th birthday party, to our pop-up shop in Shoreditch, as well as our In Conversation Events and all the wonderful press coverage that resulted from all of that! And of course, the countless new customers and new members of our community who we met along the way!

November | 10th Birthday Editions
To mark the occasion of our 10th Birthday, we had a series of extra special editions made — just 10 numbered copies per design. These limited batches are beautifully hand-made at Wyvern Bindery in Hackney.
