Pencil Case Recommendations?

I'm trying to find a somewhat thin pencil case that'll hold 35 midliners and a few pens ;;; honestly doesn't matter how "large" height and length wise the case is .. I just don't want to look like I have a giant brick in my bag 💀

I'm also just debating having a separate case for the midliners altogether lol

What happened to mead brand envelopes?

Recently I bought a box of #10 mead envelopes and my god, they are the worst envelopes I have ever used. Very thin, adhesive doesn't stick, poor quality rough paper. And that seems to be all that's available from them.

I don't know when this change happened, I'd been using a large box of 500 my parents had from the early 2000s, but mead used to have really nice envelopes--smooth, heavy paper, good adhesive.

Any suggestions for a good #10 envelope that isn't too expensive?

Pet tape sharing / Kokuyo bobbin maker

I love my pet/clear tapes but is really hard to share or take just some for when travelling(the ones that don’t have release paper in the back)

Has anyone used the Kokuyo bobbin maker with pet tape? Also, does anyone have suggestions on how to store/share pet clear tapes, like BGM clear tape for example?

What are your unexpected favorites of the last year?

Did you buy anything unremarkable that you ended up loving? Did you get the wrong order and ended up loving the contents? A silly overengineered mechanical pencil that is now your go-to?

I would love to know. My favorite was a no-name gel pen that I got from a dollar store in a pinch. I finished it today, so in memory of my pen, I want to hear about yours

Lame Safari - Nib Sizes

One day, I’ll buy my first real fountain pen ( not disposable ) and I’m pretty sure I want a Lamy Safari. Ideally, I’d want this to be my workhorse/ forever pen… but I’m not sure which nib size to choose.

I like writing with gel pens with either a 0.5 or 0.7 point ( Sarasa dry and Pentel Energel ). Which nib size for the Lamy would be close to these?

Thanks in advance!

Looking for well respected/trusted Stationery vendors

I'm currently trying to find websites or stores that sell good, high quality, stationery supplies so that I am able to replace my current low-quality gear that I've got at home. I'm looking for any online stores that ship to the UK or if you're aware of any physical stores that might be in my area that would be helpful to.

Preferably I'd appreciate it if you could reference stores/vendors that you personally have had experience with so that you can speak on the quality of their products. Though this is just be being cautious, if you know of places that sell trustworthy products, even if you haven't shopped there, too would be highly appreciated as well.

I'm trying to find nice quality notebooks, planners, and generally just "school supplies" to use in my upcoming Uni years. Though a lot of the stuff I find online is "reasonably priced" it tends to look and feel cheap and fall apart only shortly after purchasing it, my recent experience with an 8£ notebook that has started falling to pieces after only owning it for roughly two months has pushed me past my limits.

Anyways, thanks for any recommendations you could provide <3

DIY Felt Tip pen option?

I like writing with the Sharpie 0.4mm Fine Point Felt Pens. Having collected way too many beautiful fountain pen inks, I've been researching options for pens you can fill with your own inks.

Anyone have any experience with the Penn Industries DIY pen? https://www.pennstateind.com/store/PKFIBGM.html

I've also been looking at the Kuretake Karappo Empty Brush Pen with Wick at JetPens. My concern with that is the tip looks more like a fine-tip Crayola marker than the Sharpie-style with the little metal barrel around the fibers. And what I'm wanting is more like the Sharpie.

Any tips or experiences are greatly appreciated!

Companies

Hey all, I've been on the search for stationery/office supply-esque companies for when the need to buy arises (Amazon is stale and I would rather not support if I didnt need to). But am looking for companies that are similar to companies such as Dapper Notes and stores like High Tide Store in DTLA.

If you know of any that have those styles I would love to look them up! Thanks!

Loose leaf graph paper

I'm learning Japanese and one of the subreddits suggested getting graph paper for writing kanji more legibly.

Obviously there are notebooks but I'm hunting for loose leaf papers as there's no real order to my notes until I assemble them in a binder.

What's a good place to find some loose leaf graph paper? Do you have a favorite seller or brand?

有難うございます。
