If it isn’t already obvious, I am a big fan of stationery.
My affair with stationery and all things paper started very young – I started keeping a regular diary when I was 8 years old. I loved browsing the local stationery shops for the perfect pens and diaries to write down my thoughts.
Over time, my diary progressed from just words, to being accompanied by doodles, and now I make use of plenty of journal supplies such as washi tape, stickers, and other paper ephemera to make the pages pretty.
In this time, I’ve also accumulated a hefty stash of journal supplies and I not only own lots of washi tapes (200+ rolls and counting!), stickers, paper ephemera, journals ranging from the hobonichi to Travelers Notebooks to Moleskine, I’ve also got in my collection paper related tools such as a binder, a paper scorer, and a diecut machine together with a lot of dies.
I came a long way, and I remember how when I was a student I had to save up for a long time for my favourite pieces of expensive imported stationery.
Over here on this, I hope to share in-depth reviews of my favourite stationery and paper products which are not just pretty and useful, but also affordable.
I will also share my journey to source pretty and affordable stationery so that everyone can have access to pretty journaling products.
