I have been known to be easily lured in by a new notebook and will admit that I have a truly unacceptable collection of post-it notes, stationary addict? Oh yes! I recently started a new project which ALWAYS in my mind requires a new notebook, so to Staples I ventured and it did not disappoint. The Martha Stewart Collection is quite possibly the most feminine stationary that Staples have to offer with the majority of their collection being in this gorgeous duck egg colour, a demure chocolate brown or a gorgeous cream.
The first thing I picked up was what I actually went in for, a notebook. This one is a good size, somewhere between A5 and A4 and unusually for a side bound notebook it opens completely flat which means it is easy to write on both sides of the pages. It was all going so well at this point, until I spotted the Buy on Get One Free stickers...which led to the rest of the cheeky purchases.
I also decided that for my new project I would also need some NoteTabs. These were also on the BOGOF offer and I couldn't decide what else I would like so I got two packs for £3.50.
And then with another 'free' item left to chose I picked the Accordian File in duck egg which I have been wanting to pick up for a while. Since Jake and I have lived together we have managed to keep important documents in nowhere short of about 4 separate places. Something that has been on my to do list for a while is to shred anything old/irrelevant and file the important bits for both of us in just the one safe place. With the weather set to be a bit pants this weekend it sounds like a great rainy day job.
