The pages were falling out, the cover ragged and beaten up, and the paper wearing thin from making multiple changes to addresses over the years. If you own a hard copy address book you might relate.
Paperblanks came to my rescue. They heard of the dire state of my address book and swooped in with this beautiful address book. Paperblanks is a company with beginnings in Vancouver, Canada that makes gorgeous journals, notebooks, planners and more. GIVEAWAY ALERT…keep reading to find out more.
every letter writer needs an address book
No letter writer can be without a system for storing addresses. I prefer and adore hard copy address books. My new one has these letter tabs, which I feel are better than my last book design as less chance of being ripped or torn as they are actually a part of the page itself.
The number of pages per letter is more than adequate. So far, my “B” section has the most addresses, with “M” not far behind.
journals, pencil cases and more
So clever the spots for @ social media addresses too! And the little cell phone icon is adorable. Does anyone even have a land line anymore?
In addition to address books, Paperblanks makes the most beautiful journals. A personal favorite is the Verdi, Carateggio. And guess what? There is a pencil case that is the perfect match. Have a looksee at the Dumas’150th Anniversary
how to win?
Probably my absolute favorite design feature is the back pocket – the memento pouch. A perfect place to store stamps, stickers and stationery for writing a letter to someone whose address is in the main pages. So handy and speaks to the clever, thoughtful design.
I was recently featured on Paperblanks blog, and ever since a friendship has been forged through the mutual appreciation of beautifully crafted stationery items.
Wanna know what you can win? One lucky person will win a journal OR an address book (your choice) AND a pencil case. Perfect for kick starting National Letter Writing Month.
Head over to my Instagram and look for the picture of the Paperblanks journal and follow the directions. Winner will be randomly selected and announced on April 12th. Sadly, due to shipping costs, the winner must live in North America.
P.S. Do you use a pen or a pencil to write in your address book?

I don’t do Instagram. Hacks got too frequent. But many people love it and cannot live without it.
