If your diary, notebook or planner is bound in leather, it can be susceptible to scratches, so try to avoid carrying it in a bag with loose sharp objects such as keys. Direct sunlight can cause fading, so store your diary in a drawer if you work by a sunny window. It’s advisable to wipe covers with a dry cloth to remove dust and, to keep leather supple and looking its best, apply a small amount of leather cream once or twice a year.
