Vincent van Gogh

Posted by Journal with Cover Design on Thursday, August 2, 2018, In : Design Ranges 
Vincent van Gogh was a Dutch expressionist, sadly known for cutting his ear off after arguing with Gauguin. He suffered violent mood swings which often left him suicidal (he took his own life age 37). Other moods charged his creativity. In the 2 months prior to his death Van Gogh completed a work every single day.

Hokusai was a Japanese print-maker who lived in the early 19th Century and had no less than thirty different names during his lifetime! The iconic Great Wave off Kanagawa is the first print from a large series, which he created under the name Katsushika Hokusai during his sixties (when he was widely regarded to be producing his best work … so it’s never too late!).

The number one complaint with other brands was the ridiculously small number of rows available for logging expenses.

Small Wine Journals for Different Palates

Posted by Seasonal Notebook Journals on Friday, November 28, 2014, In : Food, Health & Fitness 
Below are some of the latest additions to our range of notebooks … two small wine journals entitled 'Wine Notes' and 'Wine Notes & Ramblings'. The two cover designs are very different. One is a close up of a wine bottle complete with the classic anecdote “wine improves with age … the older I get, the better I like it!” and the other is a more contemporary design full of wine related words.

Both have the same interior layout, which allows for more space for personal notes than do mos...

Why Trust Us?

Posted by smART bookx Notebooks on Thursday, November 6, 2014,
One of the difficulties of shopping online is that you can’t see and touch the product. One solution that we all use to solve it is to stick to brands that we’ve heard of and trust.  smART bookx has only be around for a year and it’s unlikely that you have heard of us yet, so why should you trust us?  After all, there are a few cowboys out there selling poor quality stationery at over inflated prices (think paper so thin you can see through it). We are confident of the high quality of o...

New Gift Notebooks for Sisters & Grandmas

Posted by Seasonal Notebook Journals on Tuesday, November 4, 2014, In : Paper Notebooks & Writing Journals 
Our ‘Best in the World’ series of notebooks is growing! The 'Best Mom in the World' and 'Best Dad in the World' notebooks proved so popular this year that we thought we’d add sisters and grandmas to the list in time for Christmas. Take a look…

Strangely, the phrase “Sister Gifts” gets searched in Google ~3600 times a month whereas “Brother Gifts” only gets ~390 searches. That’s a huge difference. There must be pretty much equal numbers of brothers and sisters out there?? ...

Mad About Tartan ... Notebooks

Posted by Seasonal Notebook Journals on Sunday, November 2, 2014, In : Design Ranges 
Boy are we in love with Scottish tartan. Our traditional red Stewart Plaid design has consistently been one of our most popular notebooks (left below) and one of our most popular kids stationery items is a really cute fairy in a tartan dress.

What have Halloween and Panda Bears got in Common?

Posted by Seasonal Notebook Journals on Tuesday, October 7, 2014, In : Journals for Kids 
Well not a lot really, except that we designed a really cute panda bear gift notebook for kids in September and we were so pleased with it that we thought a similar notebook as a Halloween Gift Idea for Kids would work too. A kind of spin off packed full of witches, wizards, ghosts and ghouls. They’re both search-and-find style designs so would make great gifts for younger children.

Why are Our Journals so Cheap? / A Unique Business Model - Here’s How it Works

Posted by smART bookx Notebooks on Sunday, October 5, 2014,
Have you ever heard of Zazzle, Café Press or Spreadshirt? They’re websites where you’ll get a choice of 1000s of notebook designs, but average prices, including shipping, will be $18+. Wow, that’s not cheap! It's a lot for something that 9 times out of 10 is ultimately a disposable item (most of us don’t keep notebooks more than a couple of years). Our notebooks are high quality but cost under $10 plus Amazon Shipping
The business models of Zazzle and the likes are actually similar ...
