Journals and Nice Pens
Permalink Closed


One of my best friends likes to write alot. I'd like to get him a journal and a nice pen for Christmas. Anyone know where I should look for some cool looking ones or have seen some? It's a guy so nothing feminine. TIA!!

Hemingway supposedly used moleskine journals.

Not sure how much you want to spend, but if it is a really good friend and you want to go high-end, there is always Smythson & Bond...  Their stuff is so beautiful.

Check out local stationary stores. I find the best stuff there. And as crazy as it seems, check out Borders or Barnes. I buy great writing books there all the time. I've seen most of the ones I've bought featured all over the web on the design blogs I read. If that's not an endorsement to you, well you might not be as much of a dork as me. wink.gif

what a great gift idea and i love the ones elle posted-beautiful!! i just wanted to let you know, and this may sound silly, but coming from a left-handed person who journals a lot, if he is a lefty, make sure the journal opens well and bends back. i have bought and never used so many journals b/c it was too difficult and aggrevating to try to write in them...i know this may sound crazy....but i think it makes a big difference! (i hope this makes sense)smile

I love the first leather one and year of journals that elle posted.  Damn- I'd be proud of myself if I could remain disciplined enough to fill a journal each month!
