I’ll be going to Blog On in September (yayy!) and it stands to reason I will of course need new stationery for the occasion. It’s a good excuse right?
This will be my first blogging conference so chances are people won’t recognise me, but they will recognise my blog, so I thought a good idea might be to get some customised stationery so people know who I am!
Now I realise September is still quite a way off, but when I was contacted by the lovely people at Toad Stationery, how could I resist the chance to get some pretty new stationery that would be personalised? The answer of course is that I couldn’t.
And the best part about it is they also offered the chance for one of my readers to win their very own personalised stationery too!
Toad Personalised Stationery: Review
Ordering your personalised stationery from Toad is a really simple process – the hardest part is trying to decide which design to get because there are loads to choose from and they’re all fab!
They offer a full range of customisable notebooks with lined, plain, or dotted paper in hardback or spiral bound styles in three different sizes. They also offer a range of diaries and planners where you can even choose your own start and end dates!
Take a look at their website for the full range of designs and options. I chose a quartro sized hardback notebook with the nebula design and an A5 sized notebook in yellow.
Once you’ve chosen your product and design, you can then personalise it with two rows of text. I choose my blog’s name as the first line and my URL for the second, but this would be a great way to say happy birthday etc. to someone as a gift.
My order arrived really quickly and was exactly as described. The design colours were true to the pictures on the site.
I chose two notebooks and both are good quality paper. What I really like about them is that the pages are numbered and there is a contents page section in the notebook, which will be perfect for me to use when taking notes at the conference as I’ll be able to refer to whatever section I need really easily.

jo liddement
It’s nice to have pretty stationery that you can give as thank you notes and letters and just looks a whole lot nicer than scrappy bits of paper
Harline parkin
I think It’s lovely love pretty stationary
Haley
What’s not to love?! I agree with Jo Liddement – I feel that I have to fight against scraps of paper, daily.
There is so much variety, for all tastes and budgets and it’s a nice little treat to be given, or to buy yourself, beautiful stationery.
It’s that crisp, brand new paper smell, space to ramble through our thoughts or to explore new worlds from your imagination and meet a party of previously unknown characters.
I Love the idea of having my very own personalised notebooks etc…♡
I hope everyone is having a good day : )

I think if your stationery looks nice, you want to take care of it and in-turn it makes you think about the best way of using it – so in some ways helps keep your life in order? 😉

I’m almost finished training to be a funeral Celebrant and have been looking at their beautiful personalised stationary for when I go to visit bereaved relatives – it would look much more professional than a big standard notebook and in turn they would also think the same of me.
