At the Dallas Pen Show, I spoke with a lot of people about my Traveler’s Notebook Passport size ($45) as a wallet. I was so sure I’d posted about this use/hack in the past but after some fruitless searching, it appears I’ve been keeping this little hack to myself. I have had the Passport size…
One of my favorite things about pen shows is that even if I don’t get to go, Ana always brings home fun stuff to review. This week I’m checking out OEDA Letterpress Two (and 5) Color Paper Notebooks ($15-24.00 via Dromgoole’s) If you love testing fun new paper, wouldn’t you love it if there were…
