Handtooled Mini Flexi Wrap Journal

First to recommend

Description

I love to journal about what I'm drawing and draw about what I'm writing. This "wrap" is beautiful inspiration for that creative process. It's not leather but has the look of an old embellished book. It's slightly flexible, has an accordion pouch in the back for extras, a magnetic closure, and an attached ribbon to mark your spot.

This is a small, pocket-sized journal. (4" x 5 1/2") Its 176 pages are archival quality and lightly lined. The lines don't distract me from sketching because I sketched on lined notebook paper throughout my formative years. (Four years of boring high school classes.) :)

KUM Long Point Metal Pencil Sharpener

First to recommend

Description

Unique two stage pencil sharpener creates a perfect point every time. The first stage shaves the wood, the second stage sharpens the lead to a long point. Breaking off leads while sharpening makes me crazy. I've not broken a single lead with this sharpener. (It even comes with extra blades!)

Vaultz Pencil Box

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

The perfect pencil box. Deep enough to hold a barrel sharpener, battery powered eraser, stumps, brushes, extra leads and all your other drawing supplies. And there's a neat little cargo net in the top that holds your pencils so their tips won't break. These are hard to find! I got mine at our local OfficeMax. I can't find them listed in their online store, though. If you see them anywhere, grab two and give the other away as a gift. :)
