I forget how I came across this Leitz notebook on Amazon— I might have seen the brand mentioned somewhere else, or maybe it was just some algorithmic recommendation. Whatever it was, it intrigued me enough to spend $19.30 plus tax to try one out! This notebook is made in China but Leitz is a German … Continue reading Leitz Premium Notebook Review
I’ve had my eye on MeePlus for a while, after seeing lots of positive mentions of them on Instagram and Reddit. So when they contacted me to offer a sample of one of their MeePlus SlimPad notebooks for review, I jumped at the chance! MeePlus is a Hong Kong-based small business run by husband and … Continue reading MeePlus SlimPad Notebook Review
I bought these Logical Prime notebooks at Nota Bene in Montreal, a great destination for stationery shopping. These wire-o bound notebooks have a snazzy design that stands out from many of their competitors. I chose a B5 size notebook with a green cover, and an A5 size in grey. The covers are made of a … Continue reading Notebook Review: Logical Prime
Sterling Ink is a brand I spotted on Instagram, thanks to the algorithms working as intended! I saw several posts mentioning their planners, and when I saw that they had a nice range of notebooks too, I couldn’t resist giving them a try. I bought two Sterling Ink notebooks in my favorite 3.5 x 5.5″ … Continue reading Sterling Ink Notebook Review
I have to confess that I bought this notebook mainly because I was feeling a little frustrated. I’d made a trip into NYC and was all excited to go to Goods for the Study and browse through lots of fabulous stationery… but then when I got there, I didn’t see anything that I really thought … Continue reading Dressco Stitched Notebook Review
My recent post about the damage to my Miquelrius “Boarding” notebook reminded me that I had another Miquelrius notebook in my review queue: the Miquelrius Logbook. The Logbook is about the closest Miquelrius comes to a Moleskine clone: it’s a pocket sized 9x14cm hardcover notebook with an elastic closure, a ribbon marker and a back … Continue reading Notebook Review: Miquelrius Logbook
Sometime last year, I started seeing a lot of mentions of Walmart’s Pen + Gear notebooks on Instagram. It seemed a little odd to me that people would be getting all excited about a very basic spiral notebook, but supposedly they were fountain pen friendly! So the next time I was at a Walmart, of … Continue reading Notebook Review: Pen + Gear Memo Book and Journal
Trying to stick with the alliterative titles here! As discussed in my recent post Filofax Fever, I do have a soft spot for Filofax organizers, particularly the vintage ones made of nice leather. I’ve used several of them over the years, and have filled them with a wide variety of Filofax inserts– plain, grid, and … Continue reading Filofax Fountain-pen Frustration
When I placed this year’s Nolty order from Japan, I decided to throw in one of their Pagem planners. Pagem is a brand that seems to be aimed more at women, as many of their designs have pastel colors and floral patterns rather than the very conservative Nolty options. Colorful, patterned, “feminine” covers are not … Continue reading 2024 Pagem Planner Review
If you’ve wanted to try a Nolty Gold planner but haven’t wanted to deal with shipping from Japan and high prices, now might be your moment! I just spotted a listing on Amazon.com for the model 3121 that I use, the 95 x 145mm size, with a gorgeous leather cover. The price I am seeing … Continue reading 2024 Nolty Gold Planner, Low Price and Free Shipping!
