It would be a shame to never get to use it and (let us hope not) but if some accident were to happen and you never wrote in it... oh that would be sad... Love your new post about "too nice to use" hehehe. I think we're all guilty of that to some extent. I have a few journals that are handmade (though not as exquisite as the TMLee) but I still don't know what to put in them. "Today I brushed my teeth. I used a new toothpaste. A cat threw up. I'm still trying to identify the culprit". My life is dull. Poor journal..GourmetPenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16364756460697132074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-861801070002529590.post-53341152781203270492012-06-24T11:00:23.373-07:002012-06-24T11:00:23.373-07:00I am trying to break myself of the "it's ...I am trying to break myself of the "it's too nice to use" mentality. I know exactly what you mean, but I also don't want my kids to find a stash of unused dot pads lying around after I'm dead, because I was afraid to use them. I still cringe when I see Joe grab one to write a grocery list though!<br /><br />I do have a TMLee handmade journal that I can't bring myself to write in. It's so beautiful that I feel like I need something extraordinary to write in it - and my life is pretty ordinary...SheilaMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09418317654965766742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-861801070002529590.post-90072112729587249032012-06-24T10:57:27.524-07:002012-06-24T10:57:27.524-07:00Joe says, "Thank you so much; I feel vindicat...Joe says, "Thank you so much; I feel vindicated!"

I' a big fan of Rhodia and Clairefontaine, and I must be in the minority that likes cream paper - Rhodia Webnotebooks are wonderful for me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-861801070002529590.post-39711460525152346072012-06-23T16:45:37.621-07:002012-06-23T16:45:37.621-07:00I love using my Webbie but I do wish the paper was...I love using my Webbie but I do wish the paper was a little less yellow... I absolutely LOVE the dot pads because the color of the paper makes me happier and I have a thing for dots (keeps my writing straight without obstructing my writing). Plus it's easy to switch to doodles with dots (for me anyway). Am I even answering the question? I'm not sure, probably not. I just wanted to share lol. It's so expensive though...I don't like to use my "nice" paper for things that aren't "worthy".GourmetPenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16364756460697132074noreply@blogger.com
