Organize your favorite pens, pencils, and other writing gear in this gorgeous wooden box

NEWS – The Writing Box from Galen Leather takes you back to an era where there were no smartphones, laptops, or email. Back when the main form of communication was done by putting pen to paper. Back when your EDC consisted of a wooden box to carry your favorite pens, paper, and other stationary items.

Galen’s writing box is a solid box made of walnut with a leather insert to help you organize your pens, pencils, and more.

The box can even become an ergonomic writing surface when you use pegs to prop the lid at an angle.

If you want to travel back in time, you can order one for $125 from Galen Leather. The pens, pencils, notebooks, and other writing gear pictured are not included.

Add a pen holder to any book, notebook, or journal

NEWS – Digging around for a pencil or pen when you need to write a quick note is very frustrating.  And it’s always nice to keep your favorite pen with your journal, but you can break the spine or mess up pages if you try keep a normal pen inside the journal as if it were a bookmarker.  With the Peleg Design Clippen, you can easily keep a pen or pencil clipped to the top of a notepad or to the cover of a notebook so it’s always at the ready.

The Clippen looks like a giant paperclip.  It’s made of metal, and it measure  2.83″ x 0.74″ x 0.31″.  Unlike a normal paperclip, this one has a ridge in the front that’s perfect to slip a pen under.

The Clippen is a perfect gift for all the students, journal keepers, or paper list makers in your life.  At $8.95, it may be the perfect stocking stuffer for Christmas this year.  Get yours at Animi Causa.

Make back-to-school time a little more fun with these supplies

NEWS – As a kid, did you ever look forward to the new school year, just a little, because you would get new school supplies?  I did, and my love of school supplies has matured into a love of office supplies.  If you or your child also appreciates a nice pencil or notebook, look no further than Kikkerland for the cool supplies.

First up is the Tropical Pencils (set of 4).  Their image is at the top of this post.  Kikkerland doesn’t supply a lot of info about the pencils, other than they measure 6.8″ long.  They don’t have an eraser, but you can buy those separately.  The Tropical Pencils set is $5.00 at Kikkerland.

These New Wave Notebooks are inspired by 90s MTV graphic style and the revived interest in Memphis school of design.  The notebooks are available in large format (8.5″ x 5.75″ x 0.25″) with ruled or plain pages for $8.00 each or in small format (3.5″ x 5.5″ x 0.25″) with ruled or plain pages for $5.00 each.  Each notebook contains 92 pages.  A random design will be selected for you at purchase.

The WritersBlok Bookmark Pen is a see-through, “modern-vintage” pen with a brass ink cartridge.  Its flat design lets you use it as a bookmark in your notebook or workbook until you need it for taking notes.  The WritersBlok Bookmark Pen is $3.00 at Kikkerland.

The Post-it Extreme Notes are the Fisher Space Pen of sticky notes

Let’s see a show of hands, how many of you use Post-it Notes on a regular basis? Me too. I always have a ubiquitous pad of the yellow 3 x 3 inch notes somewhere on my desk so I can quickly jot down a note, phone number, to do, etc. The best thing about Post-it Notes is that they are small and they stick to things without leaving a messy residue behind. But a bad thing about these sticky notes is that you can’t really use them outdoors because regular paper doesn’t react well with wet environments.

3M has solved that problem with Post-it Extreme Notes which work in the cold, work in the heat, and work in wet environments. Post-it Extreme Notes are made of dura-hold paper which is water resistant. As long as the item you wish to stick the note too is dry when you stick it, it stays stuck. Even after it gets wet, cold, or hot.

You can buy Post-it Extreme Notes in packs of 3 pads for $4.99 or boxes of 12 pads for $19.50 from Amazon.
