Leuchtturm1917 120gsm Notebook Review
I’ve been a fan of the Leuchtturm1917 notebooks for a while now. I couldn’t even tell you how many I’ve used over the years. So when I found out Leuchtturm was releasing a new version of their notebook with thicker, 120gsm paper I knew I had to try it. I love my Leuchtturm notebooks for…

Craeft by Alexander Langlands (and Calligraphy)
One of the most interesting classes I took at university was run by the fine art department. This class was about looking at spaces, the outcome was to be a response to a specific space. I ended up making a lantern which told the story of a witch trial which took place very close to…

Are Muji Pens Overrated? A Gel Pen Comparison
I haven’t properly been in the blogosphere for a while. One of the interesting things which happened during my time away was how the stationery/ studyblr community collectively moved away from the Muji gel pens as a ‘must-have’ stationery item.

I mentioned in a blog post recently that I wasn’t a fan of using graphite pencils. As such, I had no real opinions when it comes to pencil sharpeners either. When I bought the Palomino Blackwing pencils I also bought a Blackwing long point sharpener. This is probably the fanciest pencil sharpener I’ve ever bought.…

Mossery Academic Planner | Thoughts & Review
It has become very obvious to me is that I need to be organised if I want to get all my university work finished. This is something I find difficult doing if I have lots of projects on the go at the same time. As much as I love my bullet journal it isn’t helpful…

MD Paper A5 Notebook Review
For a long time, the Leuchtturm1917 was my favourite A5 notebook. I even wrote a blog post about how it was the best A5 notebook you could buy. Well, it turns out there is a new contender and it might be even better than the Leuchtturm. This is quite surprising for a number of reasons.…
