cute stationery

Actually, I bought these things last month, but I forgot to post about them, and some items only arrived this month. I also bought some Holbein gouache, which I talked about in another post. It’s been a long time since I bought any stationery or art supplies, but last month I felt like picking up some new things, and I’m glad I did. I’ve been spending more time on my hobbies lately, rather than on my phone, and it has been doing me so much good.

  1. Hobonichi Techo A5 Cousin Cover - Honey Lilac
    This case is gorgeous! I was going to buy a dupe I saw online, but they didn't have the size I wanted, so I decided to check out the original covers and I fell in love with them. It was expensive, and on top of that, I had to pay for international shipping and duties, but I think it was worth it.

  2. Hobonichi Blank A5 Notebook
    I wanted to buy this journal because everyone talks about how wonderful the paper is, and I really wanted to try it out. Actually, I’ve been hearing people speak highly of the Hobonichi brand for a long time, but only now did I decide to buy one and see for myself whether it’s good or not.

  3. Mind Wave CIAO Large Paper Stickers
    These stickers are so cute. They remind me of my childhood, when foxes would sometimes appear near my house.

  4. Hobonichi Techo A5 Cousin Cover on Cover - Clear
    Of course I had to buy a cover to protect the cover 🤣

  5. Muji Pocket Notebook B6

  6. Muji Pocket Notebook B6
    I ended up returning these two Muji notebooks. I didn't like the size or the fact that they don't open flat.

  7. MD Notebook A5 1 Day 1 Page Blank A5
    This was an impulse buy. I was watching a video on the JetPens channel, and one of the girls showed her Midori, it was really chunky, and I was absolutely charmed. Naturally, I just had to have that journal with that many pages so I could make mine look just as chunky, too.

  8. Fresh Solids Paper Pad, 48 Sheets

  9. Crayola Crayons 48
    I bought these crayons because I wanted to try out different ways of making art in my journal, but to be honest, I didn't like these crayons at all. They crumble a lot and have almost no pigment. It's a good thing I only paid $3 for them.

  10. Gold Plants Paper
    I used this paper to cover the back cover of my Midori journal, and I love how it turned out.

  11. Pilot Kakuno Fountain Pen Family Series Transparent Pink Fine
    I can't even describe the sensation I felt when using this fountain pen for the first time. If I had known it was this good, I would have bought one sooner. Now that I know, I can't stop using this fountain pen, and I already want a thousand more of them in every possible color.

  12. Crayola Super Tips Pastel Markers
    I love pastel colors, and I thought these markers are great for the price.
