Yup. You read that right. I’ve left a code for you at the bottom of this post. In the meantime, take a look at this amazing journal and pen that I was gifted by Leuchtturm1917. Plus the cutest pen loop…I didn’t even know such a thing existed, but it’s brilliant!

keep things in one place
I chose the Accordian Notebook by Monocle (a particular notebook line within Leuchtturm1917) because I thought it would be perfect for having everything in one spot for letter writing. It fits stamps, postcards, and enough paper for 2 page letter. Amazing! Plus the other half is an actual notebook so I can jot down whatever I want when not writing letters.

slow living
A hidden little gem at the back of the journal is this section with various ways ‘for living a quieter, more considered life.’ Love this.
One of the many reasons I love letter writing so much is that it is all about slowing down, getting off screens and enjoying the quieter things we don’t often make time for. Journaling or writing in a beautiful notebook does the same thing.

Grad gift giving made easy
What I find to be both a helpful and unique feature of this notebook is that you can designate topic areas within the notebook by noting page number at the front.
I feel like 20% off anything at Leuchtturm1917 would be make a great grad gift. You can get the name of your graduate embossed on the journal. Sets them up nicely for Uni next year or whatever their future plans are.

I’m not fussy when it comes to pens…
See that pop of yellow to the right of my page above? That is the pen loop!! For me, this little pen loop, which comes in several colour options, is a game changer. I will always know where my pen is!! This pen loop is adhesive and you are able to position where you want it on your notebook.
Speaking of my new pen, I can’t close off before telling you a couple of things.
First off, I’m not a pen afficionado. I don’t care a whole lot about my pen as long as a few things are true. 1) it writes smoothly on the paper, has a great flow feel to it, and 2) feels great to hold in my hand, 3) I’m not a fan of pens with lids…I always loose them.. so I prefer a click or twist option to activate the pen tip.
This ball point Drehgriffel Monocle meets all my criteria. A bonus is that it has refillable inks in both black and blue.
What would you use this journal for?
