Books About How to Use Notebooks

A fun Washington Post article by Josephine Wolff (see also this post about her favorite notebooks), about the many books now available on various methods of journaling and how to use notebooks. I cannot stop buying books about how to write in notebooks. It’s not that I require instructions. I’ve been doing it for as … Continue reading Books About How to Use Notebooks

Hunting World New York Diary Advertisement

I found this clipping in one of my boxes of old notebooks, tucked between some pages from an old Filofax. I don’t think I ever actually went to Hunting World to look at one of these diaries in person, probably because I did draw the line somewhere in terms of cost! (Maybe also because the … Continue reading Hunting World New York Diary Advertisement

Quo Vadis Life Journal Infinite Review

I’ve always had a soft spot for Quo Vadis products, ever since my college days when I used some of their vinyl-covered diaries to keep track of my classes and assignments. An updated version of the ones I used is still available! But Quo Vadis has kept up with the times and added new products … Continue reading Quo Vadis Life Journal Infinite Review

Once again, I’ve been exploring the Nolty website with the help of Google Translate to try to figure out the various options! The new … Continue reading 2020 Nolty Diary Line-Up

Vintage Pocket Filofax on eBay

Every once in a while, I get this weird impulse to search for vintage Filofaxes on eBay. I bought one about a year ago and haven’t gotten around to reviewing (or using) it yet. In fact, I haven’t used a Filofax actively in at least 15 years. But I still love them, and as with … Continue reading Vintage Pocket Filofax on eBay

Notebook in “Widows”

Another sighting of an interesting notebook, this time in the movie Widows. I won’t get into any plot details that might be spoilers, but here’s a couple screen shots of the notebook. It looks to be approximately 5 x 8″, a nicely broken-in leather cover containing a squared notebook. It seems quite thick, but there … Continue reading Notebook in “Widows”

Vacation Notebooks and Art Supplies

I’m enjoying a week at the beach, and thought I’d share what notebooks and pens and art supplies I brought with me. Since I traveled by car, I didn’t have to worry about packing light! First, here’s what is in my bag every day, which of course I didn’t change for my vacation: There is … Continue reading Vacation Notebooks and Art Supplies
