To Write In: The Notebooks and Journals

I can never have too many notebooks.  I don't like a lot of frills, but I do like pretty.  Not simple, just classic.

To Write With: My Favorite Pens

When I discovered ultra fine point pens, I fell in love.  Most pens I use are .38 or .3 - I feel it gives me so much control when I write.  But, Frixon pens also have me in a choke hold.  I have a few faves that are a blend of both worlds 💕
