Notebook Addict of the Week: Style of Mine
This week, we have a Kiwi Notebook Addict, a “petite, geeky journalist-in-training living in New Zealand.”
Here’s her stash:
I really like those wire-bound ones with the photo collages on the covers. The leather journal is also quite beautifully made, there are more closeups of it in the original post. I don’t see any brands I recognize here other than the one I assume is a Moleskine.
Some thoughts from the owner:
I’ve always felt that there was something inherently stylish about notebooks and journals. They harken back to a time before digital technology, when it was commonplace to see wet glistening flowing script emerging from the tip of a fountain pen. There is something very romantic about handwriting, the smell of paper and the sound of a nib scratching its surface.
Yep, got that right!

The leather journal with the Celtic Cross embossed on it is lovely. I am fortunate to live in an area of the country with a large Irish/Scottish population so we get to enjoy lots of fine handiwork along those lines at IrishFest and our State Fair.
The notebook with the spoons and different types of grains is intriguing. I’d be interested in know more about where the intrepid Kiwi found that gem.

I like the Celtic Cross one, and the one with Ingrid Bergman. And I completely agree about the feel of a pen and actual writing. I still write my diary, and everything else, with a fountain pen.
