who only by moving can balance

Okay! So! The notebook I have bought myself a decade's supply of (just starting year two) is the Pebble Stationery Co. A5 Cosmo Hardcover, which is covered with linen. (I actually have five blue and five grey, and I'm intending to alternate them.)

I had resigned myself to needing to keep things carefully organised and even then probably have to actually open the notebooks up when I find myself wanting to refer back to something, But Then a few days ago it Occurred to me that I know that linen-covered notebooks can be stamped with debossed designs, with or without (hot, I think?) foiling. I also (think I) know that this does not (necessarily) require the design to be stamped prior to assembly of the notebook (but maybe spines are harder???).

... I quite like the idea of stamping the year onto these notebooks (again, optionally with foiling), but I am having Difficulty finding information on (1) what kind of set-up I'd need given that I have this one extremely specific use-case, and (2) the extent to which foils contain Plastic (which I would not be able to justify). "Okay but can I also stamp the spines" is its own whole separate Thing.

Most of the information I'm managing to find focusses on cardmaking and involves a specialist printer that will accept materials of maximum thickness of around 2mm, which are not exactly, ah, relevant. But surely some of you have already fallen down this rabbit hole, or at least can tell me what I should be searching for to get slightly less frustrating results? How ridiculously expensive and impractical would a home set-up be given that I have no desire to set up my own stationery monogramming cottage business? Are there places that offer this as a service for notebooks that have already been written in as opposed to ones you're buying from them new??? etc!
