While at the California Pen Show, I was able to score a few samples from the Traveler’s/Plotter table. Not that I needed any Traveler’s Notebook samples.

Planner Review: Midori 2023 Pocket Diary B6- Clovers

Pencil Review: Midori MD Paper Products Colored Pencils
Review by Tina Koyama “Play your notes, to hear the sounds of pencil on paper.” It’s hard to resist an invitation like that!
