Hi everyone! I was recently contacted by Executive Pens Direct to review some of the pens the offer. They have also provided a discount code which I will include after my review. I have had my eye on the Rotring range for quite some time. The all-metal build, the premium look and the extra features really made the whole product line feel very top-of-the-range when you talk about mechanical pencils. When I was contacted by Steven who offered to let me review one, I couldn’t say no. In the hand the 600 feels quite light, but very solid. It weighed in at 22 grams with the lead that cam ..read more

Or you have a good motivating phrase in your head, but when the time comes to speak to your emplo ..read more

We all know that paper is made from trees. To be more specific, it’s made from pulp wood fibre. In today’s society, paper can be made from multiple materials, including rice, water plants and cotton. But have you ever heard of paper made from stone? I bring you: Karst Stone Paper stationery; a stationary range with paper made entirely from stone. Here’s now it works. Karst Stone Paper transforms recycled stone into simple, functional and beautiful products.  To do this, they re-purpose waste stone produced by the mining and construction industry, crush it into powder and combine it ..read more

My previous post gave an overview of Bookblock’s new flagship product, the Weskin. My sample product finally came in the mail and I can give you the full guided tour. I’m not disappointed. Let me warn you that my photo’s aren’t quite as good as Bookblock’s professional ones, but they definitely show how awesome this notebook is. The Weskin contains several great features, which are mentioned here, so I won’t go over all of them again. Some major features do stand out though. At first glance, I thought the Weskin was actually a hard-cover – until I picked it up in my excited little fingers. Th ..read more

If you’ve read any of my previous reviews on Bookblock, you’ll understand how great their notebooks are.  The company has taken another step and created the Weskin, a one-of-a-kind notebook.

The notebook is A5 in size (not too big, not too small),  comes with a pretty gilt edge, and is available in classic navy blue, contemporary yellow or muted grey. The Weskin also has a geometric lining, and comes complete with a double grosgrain ribbon – all of the must-have notebook essentials, and ..read more

Back in September 2015, I reviewed ROSSI’s products for the first time. Their new 2017 notebook collection is just as wonderful as ever, and I have the fantastic opportunity of reviewing some of their samples. First up, the gold foil collection. In my previous posts about ROSSI, I reviewed some of their gorgeous notepads. To be honest, I believe these colourful gold foil notebooks are even more beautiful. These notebooks come in two different sizes, A5 or A6, and an array of colours to suit your needs (and especially wants). I’ll start with the soft-cover notebooks. The mint and honey ..read more

I was contacted by DroodleBooks a few weeks ago and the time has finally come for them to launch their new professional notebook. At DroodleBooks, they’ve crafted a professional notebook to help reduce stress and inspire creativity. Their mission is to integrate the creative advantages of colouring and doodling with the professional benefits of a regular notebook in order to fill the needs of working people, students and anyone in between. I’ve always been a fan of colouring from when I was little, but with all of these adult colouring books available on the market today it’s hard to know wha ..read more
