My Favorite Stationary Items Right Now

I have always been a lover of all things stationary. I was the little girl that would get excited over a new gel pen, or a pretty notepad.

 

How about you?

 

With many of us stuck inside with all of the coronavirus fears, I thought I’d share with you all of my favorite stationary items right now.

 

Erin Condren LifePlanner

 

Erin Condren LifePlanner

 

I wrote a blog post a couple of months ago, taking you page-by-page through my new Erin Condren LifePlanner.

 

I told you that I would give you an update later on to see how I liked it (it’s my first LifePlanner!), and here it is. 🙂

 

I’ve been using this planner almost daily since I got it and I truly fell in love with it. It’s gorgeous, has such pretty designs and is super functional.

 

It has pockets in the very back, and I use those for my stickers. They really brighten up my planning pages, as I don’t write very in-depth. Just quick notes to keep me on track from day-to-day.

 

Zicoto Stickers

 

My Favorite Stationary Right Now

 

Speaking of stickers, I just received my new Zicoto stickers in the mail over the weekend. I had never bought from this company before, but I saw them on Amazon and thought I’d give them a try.

 

I’m so happy I did! These stickers are gorgeous. I don’t really think my photos do them justice. They are glossy, sturdy and there are 974 in this package. Yes, 974!

 

Pens

These pens have been some of my favorites for a really long time now. They write so smoothly, and I think they make my planning pages look much prettier than a regular ink pen.

 

The G2 Pilot Pens are fantastic and I’ve been using them for almost as long as I can remember.

 

The Paper Mate Ink Joy Pens have been a favorite in probably the last few years and I use the different colors every single day.

 

I love, love, love these Uni-Ball Vision Elite Pens. They are just perfect!

 

They are great to use in my planner daily, or for writing notes or to-do lists.

 

My Favorite Stationary Items Pin

 

Let me know if you also love some of these products or if you’re going to give some of these a try.

 

It’s a crazy time right now with most of us having to stay at home. I hope you’re hanging in there, things will get better and this too shall pass, friends.

    I should have stocked up my stationary as well. Now it’s gotten a bit more difficult. My kids would love those colourful pens, they love to draw.

      Totally agree, Simone! I think almost everything is out of stock these days. They are really fun to color with, I’ve used these in my adult coloring book. 🙂

    Your personalized planner is absolutely adorable! My planner that I use for school feel apart because the spiral was cheap so I am definitely on the hunt for a new one. Thank you for sharing! I love the G2 pens so much too!

      Aww, thank you so much!! I’m so sorry about your planner! I’ve had that happen before. This one is super well made. Another option that is well made is Bloom Daily Planners.

Yes, iced coffee counts! 😉 Sometimes it’s the sma Yes, iced coffee counts! 😉

Sometimes it’s the smallest, simplest things that make us feel most grounded - and those things are worth remembering and incorporating! 

Maybe it’s a morning cup of coffee, spending time in your Bible, listening to your favorite podcast, stepping outside for some fresh air, a few quiet minutes going over your to-do list in your planner, or checking in with someone you love.
