Review: Apica C.D. Premium Notebook

Author AnaPosted on January 7, 20143 Comments

I finally got a chance to try out the much-touted Apica C.D. Premium notebook ($18.50). I got the A6 size (approx. 4″x6″) with plain paper. The notebooks have a bookcloth-wrapped perfectbound spine and the cover is a mica-flaked dark grey paper with embossed and foil-stamped “C.D. Notebook” on the cover. Below that printed in the…

Review: Federal Supply Service Notebook

Author AnaPosted on January 6, 201413 Comments

When I spied this perfect-shade-of-green, hardcover notebook with plain white, lined paper for a mere $9, I thought I may have found notebook nirvana. It is totally no-fuss. There is no pocket, no ribbon book mark, no elastic on the spine. Its just a simple green notebook. Printed (industrially) on the cover were the words…

Review: Zenok Leatherworks Field Notes Cover

Author AnaPosted on January 4, 2014

My darling husband has been known, on occasion, to read The Well-Appointed Desk as a make-shift wish list for me. This often works out in my favor at the holidays. For Christmas this year, he bought me a Zenok Leatherworks Field Notes Cover ($39) in natural beige. I thought I’d give is a quick comparison…

Review: Stubby Pencil Studio Pencil Highlighters

Author AnaPosted on January 3, 2014May 28, 20171 Comment

I love the idea of pencil highlighters. They don’t dry out, can be used all the way down to a stump and don’t leave a big wet patch in a book or on my notes. When the fine folks at Stubby Pencil Studios offered to send a few highlighters to try out, I was excited…

Review: Midori Pocket & Envelope Notebooks

Author AnaPosted on January 3, 2014

The Midori Spiral Ring Pocket and Envelope Notebooks are so simply utilitarian and classy I couldn’t resist them. They are both 3.5″x5″ with the covers wrapping through the spiral binding. The Pocket Envelope has cream-colored, folded sheets that create a pocket to slip loose ephemera. You can write notes on the pages which would make…

12 Days of Inkmas: De Atramentis Pigeon Blue

Author AnaPosted on December 24, 20134 Comments

On the last day of Inkmas, my true pen was inked with De Atramentis Pigeon Blue! Not as romantic as a partridge in a pear tree but its my favorite ink (at the moment) so I thought it was worthy of being the last ink of the first annual Inkmas. Initially, I ordered a sample…

Review: Karas Kustoms Ink Fountain Pen

Author AnaPosted on December 23, 2013May 27, 2017

I’ve alluded to the latest Kickstarter project from Karas Kustoms for several weeks but I wanted to write-up a good thorough review with lots of photos to entice and satisfy any questions. So here it is! Dan over at Karas Kustoms was kind enough to send me a prototype Ink fountain pen to get my…
