Notebooks

Somewhere to write down our reminders, big ideas and lists, a good notebook is a back to school essential. One of our favourites is the A5 Beach Notebook, designed by illustrator Kristen Boydstun. Part of our Editions range, each of the notebooks created by the illustrators are done in their own, distinctive style, making them must-have accessories for unique and artistic stationery lovers. For the Beach Notebook, these illustrations are perfect for the times you need to escape, and help to keep that summer feeling all year round, whatever the weather. For relaxing beach vibes, this soft touch cover notebook is the one to opt for. The pages are made up of lined, grid, plain and illustrated paper for all of your notes, sketching and drawings.

Sketchbooks

If it’s a sketchbook you’re after for your back to school stationery haul, we’re big fans of the Carmel A4 Sketchbook. Big enough for all your drawings and sketching, but small enough that it can fit into your bag and be easily carried around, the Carmel Sketchbook is both a convenient but bold choice. It comes perfect bound with a soft touch gridded hard backed cover, and a red elasticated band to keep all of your sketches secure. It features a 1980s Memphis inspired design, where it’s based on three words: radical, funny and outrageous. The perfect sketchbook for an avid designer.

Diaries

Whether you’re buying for yourself or someone else, a diary is a personal choice but a must-have for your back to school stationery selection. It has to be the right size, colour and style for you to keep with you for the whole year. Our Graphic A5 Diary in grey is a great way to stay on top of your to-do lists. It’s elegant, sleek and has a two-page week spread to make it easy for all of your notes and jotting down unmissable moments and dates. Great for style-conscious timekeepers.
