Seductive glint of gold

I don’t own a Montblanc fountain pen, but oh how I covet it.
Not for the golden nib, not for the prestige of owning one. But for the pleasure of holding an object so beautiful and inviting.
I dare anyone to look at this photo and not desire a Monblanc pen of their own.

Erasers are not my stationery porn of choice, but, as with other office goodies, they become exponentially more attractive when there are many of them.
Also: Pretty colours! The abundance of choice would send me into an anxiety attack if I were standing there, trying to pick one or two.
How on earth do people ever choose?

The promise of a blank sheet

Apart from being beautifully shot, this picture thrills me with its promise. I want to be Maryann who gets the letter, but I also want to write the letter, to be the one who loops the ink onto the page.
Also, mark the pen: it seems to be one of that breed that’s stunning to look at, but probably not very comfortable to grip. Do I want one anyway? You bet!

I want a “Usa Colle” Notepad

I didn’t know how much I was missing in my life until I saw the picture of this spiral pad.

These unbearably cute little books are made by the Japanese company “Mind Wave”, whose kawaii products are apparently all the rage among young girls in Japan. (I swear, just looking at it makes me feel young and carefree.)
I found a few ‘Mind Wave’ notebooks online at ShopKawaii, but not this particular one.
I covet it.

Journal holder

I’m not crafty enough to make my own stationery porn, but I silently covet other people’s skills. Look, this has separate pockets for the main pad, little notepadlet, and a pencil pocket. Aaah.
