Functional can also be fabulous when it comes to stationery. What’s more fun than getting things done with flair?
Head into The Colombo for some unique and beautiful stationery from our Kiwi stores and boutiques.
The art of notetaking
There’s a subtle satisfaction in turning a quick thought into a beautiful note. It feels good to use stationery designed for quality and purpose.
Here are some ways to practice the art of the note:
- Pretty up your desk with a memo cube from Annah Stretton.
- Slip compliments into your stack of reminder notes.
- Go old-school in style, skip an email to a coworker and pass a note instead.
- Leave thoughtful messages around the place – on the fridge, by the coffee, at a bus stop!
The perfect pen: make every scribble shine
A good pen is more than just a writing tool; it’s an extension of your thoughts. Consider:
- How does it glide across the page?
- Is it smooth with consistent ink flow
- Is it weighted right to be comfortable in your hand?
A good pen offers control, precision, and a tactile connection to your words. For pens you can trust, discover the collection at Industria.
The right tool for the job
Get that crisp, clean snip of sharp scissors! It’s a satisfying sensation that elevates crafting, wrapping, or opening a package.
Experience the smooth precision and delightful feel of quality tools, like these Moomin Scissors at Nordic Chill.
The power of the planner: your path to clarity
A planner is a companion for focus and clarity. The simple act of writing things down by hand actively helps convert information into lasting memory.
It also offers a tactile experience that screens just can’t match.
For planners that make organisation easy, explore the collection at The Collective.
Make your mark: get creative with clay
Clay is a form of stationery that offers a lasting, artistic record!
Traditionally, it is used for preserving things like tiny handprints or footprints. But you could preserve any mark or word that you want to remember. Our ancestors made art in the caves, you can do it in your home. Check out this Imprint Keepsake at Dimples.
An analog ally
Who in your life appreciates sweet stationery? Your local librarian, that’s who!
You can also book a librarian for a one-on-one session at Colombo South Library to learn more about the library’s resources, find books, or chat about research projects. Go on, go analog and start a conversation!
