I may be addicted to fountain pens… and fountain pen inks… and stationery…
I tested a few currently inked pens on Yamamoto’s new Canopus paper and I really love it. The colors render really well and the fingerprint problems of Cosmo Air Light are MUCH reduced. #fountainpens @penaddict
First photo shows Canopus paper and under it the same inks on a Cosmo Air Light notebook, photo taken in indirect sunlight. Second photo is a page where I tried to make oily fingerprints on the page before writing, and wrote with my writing hand resting on the paper.

Today’s development in Trader Joe’s box books: pita crackers #diy #handbookbinding
I made another Trader Joe’s box book! This one is made with Takasago Premium Bank Paper from Yamamoto Paper (another favorite for my #FountainPens ) and lies flat even though it’s a modified case bound format. #diy #handbookbinding #traderjoes #upcycle
I’m getting addicted to making these little Coptic-stitched journals out of Trader Joe’s snack boxes and fancy Japanese paper. These two are both made with Light Force paper from Yamamoto paper and they are SO nice for my #fountainpens and #fountainpen inks.

Further update: the replacement 5-year Hobonichi arrived this week but I have not yet tested it. Very happy that I’ll be able to start using it on January 1!
