I have always been a bit of a geek. Whilst I was in primary school [year 1 -I was 6 going on 7] I got in trouble with my teacher for wasting paper - I used to collect bundles of blank pages and then staple them together to create 'books'. I never wrote in them just created 'book' after 'book' until I was about 12 when I figured it would be fun to fill them with stories. In my early teens I used to buy blank notebooks that would sit for years on my shelves without so much as a flick of ink. Although my budget does not stretch as far as it used to, as a student of a particularly 'bookish' subject I can often be found in the library or at my desk typing or jotting away. My love for all things paper was clearly never a 'phase'.
Once more its that time of year again. Hundreds of thousands of young people and children are back off to school, college, university or new jobs. There is never a better time of the year to post about all things paper related. So forgive me if you're not big into stationery but I'm about to unveil my top 10 for desk accessories and journals. They're not in any particular order as its all down to individual taste!
