I adore stationery. Buy me a cute notebook or a set of markers, and watch as I fuss over all the colours and patterns. While I’m nowhere near the artistic sort, this obsession has led to a growing collection of writing supplies that I can break out whenever that bullet journalling inspo hits.
Whether you’re a journal junkie or not, pretty stationery is always a welcome sight. To get your own beautiful writing tools, hit up any of these 7 stationery shops and you’re on your way to owning an enviable collection yourself.
