Take Note
In addition to not liking blue pens I like stationary an awful lot.
Being brought up in a family with 3 generations of commercial artists and signwriters meant that from before I could walk I always had a pencil in my hand and a piece of paper of some description within reach.
Not much has changed and even though I have every single piece of wonderful technology I (i) can shake out of the apple tree I am only ever panicked when I don't have something to write with and on.
2 of my favourite places to buy great paper, pencils and pens are Pencil Boutique and Australian site Notemaker who stock everything from Moleskine to koh-i-nor a European Stationary company established in 1790.
