I bought this notebook in paperchase last week. The notebook is made from discarded paper such as packaging, envelopes, posters etc. mine appears to be old calendar and paper with advertisement banners. I imagine every notebook is slightly different. The pages are basically the back of discarded paper so you will see a faded image […]
A popular theme for notebook design/covers are famous quotes. Famous and influential people are often quoted on the front of a notebook – something witty makes a surprisingly good (and easy) notebook. Other notebooks, put quotes throughout the notebook, perhaps a quote on every page or every few pages. One of my favourite notebooks from […]
P is a nice healthy letter of the alphabet. Plenty of words… too many words. I’ve talked a lot about (note)paper lately, being a notebook blog, so for atozchallenge readers dropping by, I thought I’d drop the notebook focus and write a blog about Printables.

A lot of chat lately has brought the 2012 Olympics back into focus and final preparations have begun. The tickets and accommodation has been sorted, but I am still in the process of trying to book my train tickets and deciding what else to do when I am in London. With Olympics on the brain, […]

I may be sticking to a rather predictable “L” word here. But love a strong powerful emotion should not be ignored. So much passion and inspiration comes from love. Writing comes from love. No doubt everyone has a few items dedicated to “love” in the broader sense – a diary, writing down your loves, hopes […]
Fellow readers – we clearly all love our notebooks, the feel of a pen, the texture of paper under the nib, but whether you are a fellow blogger or simply a reader we have one further thing in common – a love for the Internet (otherwise you wouldn’t be here). Today I thought I would […]
Do you dedicate a particular function to your notebooks? I do like to try to. I tend to keep a notebook for each function – why? Because I will know where to find things (and my notebooks do not go to waste). Usually I try to to buy a notebook without first having some idea […]
I have never been one to indulge in a passion for ink like many of my fellow “pen and paper” bloggers. Many write regular ink posts awash with wonderful, delicate colours.
