Loving my new book stand. I‘ve been looking for ages for a slimline one that doesn‘t take up too much space. This one comes in about 6 different colours - added bonus for Santa!

Christine Love it! 3y

nanuska_153 One like that in blue held my books while studying law, it's very good, doesn't damage the book at all and it's handy to carry around too 3y

mandarchy That looks very retro. My dad always had a bookstand on the breakfast counter. He had one just like that until the 80s. My mom got him a plexiglass book stand that kept the pages safe from splatter. 3y

mom2bugnbee Any chance you could share buying info? A link? ☺ 3y

Mitch @mom2bugnbee Not sure if they ship to US - but it‘s a brand called Hightide https://www.thejournalshop.com/hightide-metal-book-stand (edited) 3y

I‘m on a stationary buying ban - but these sticky notes were too cute and very small so they really don‘t count!

katy4peas Agreed! 😊 3y

squirrelbrain So cute! A stationery buying ban doesn‘t sound like the best idea to me anyway! 3y

Mitch @squirrelbrain I was mildly embarrassed when we were moving at the size of the box I needed for all my lovely paper bits! 3y

I loved, loved, loved this book! (But that‘s because I‘m a #stationerynerd!)

The author takes a look at the history of all types of stationery; pens, pencils, erasers, set squares, highlighters, Post-It notes etc etc.

It‘s clear that he loves stationery as much as I do - the book is warm and funny, as well as very informative.

I need to go out now and buy some new pens and notebooks! ❤️

mcctrish I need to read this 3y

readingjedi This sounds right up my street! 3y

Megabooks Stacking! 3y

rabbitprincess Ooh I‘ve never seen a four-coloured pen with that green barrel! It looks fab 😄 3y

squirrelbrain @rabbitprincess - I love them - they have pink, turquoise, green and purple ink! 3y

I have to spread this over two posts because the box of wonderful Japanese stationary that @wanderinglynn sent me it the BEST! She‘s tapped into my inner love of cute things in small packages, beautifully designed and beautifully crafted. Thank you so the most wonderful of gifts! 😍

Mitch @DGRachel and the best bit - they have these little drawers you pull out that are filled with vintage paper goods - 1950s coat check labels, laundry tags and beautiful old hotel notepads 😩 5y

julesG I cannot make this unseen. I'll have to visit this shop. 5y

DGRachel @Mitch How cool! That place gets more and more dangerous! 5y

wanderinglynn I‘m thinking of spending a few days in London, then head up to Edinburgh. Have to figure out logistics. 5y

My #nfNov TBR. Not saying I‘ll get through all 13, but I hope to make a good dent in this pile. With good intentions, I buy non-fiction books but then never read them because I opt to lose myself in a fantasy world instead. So this is the perfect challenge to get through some of these awesome books (many of these are #blameitonLitsy). 😀

Thank you Rachel & Cassandra for hosting this awesome challenge!
