Do I love lime green? You know I do. (See the matching nail polish for proof.) Do I like Leuchtturm1917 notebooks? Yup. Do I really like when the two things come together with all the genius of peanut butter and chocolate? Of course!! Okay, on to the real review… The Leuchtturm1917 notebook line was recently…

Review: Monteverde Prima F Fountain Pen in Green Swirl
The Monteverde Prima is another of the gloriously swirly body designs from the Monteverde line. Like the Intima, the colored resin is beautifully done.

Review: Nock Co DotDash 3×5 Notecards

I’ve been familiar with her design work for years so I would, of course, be interested in any pencil project she might create. The box alone is a work of art. The packaging is beautiful…
