Shanghai, Beijing, Chiang Mai, and other points east are shaping up as this winter’s must-visit destinations. But given that you may not be as familiar with those Asian hot spots, the need for a trusted guide is paramount.

Short of a well-connected local friend, your best bet is this set of Luxe City Guides. Each of the little books is smartly edited, not to mention small enough to slip into a travel wallet.

Wax Seals are something that we have always wanted to stock in our shop. They make a perfect finishing touch to our Original Crown Mill paper and envelopes range, but are very versatile. So when we found a collection of wax seal direct from Italy, we ordered them straight away!

Wax seals were used as early as recorded history. They were mentioned in the Old Testament, were used in Ancient Egypt by the Pharaohs, & by European Royalty to authenticate documents & seal envelopes for privacy. Today they are used to capture the charm & elegance in Wedding invitations, letters & gift wrapping.

A Book About Me:

A Book About Me aims to provide your child with a record of their time in utero up to age 5. Your child will be fascinated about their history as they grow up, but will value this as essential reading when they are planning or expecting their own children.

My School Days:

Following on from the success of A Book About Me, Milestone Press have produced a book to record memories of the Australian school years. There are spaces for school photos, lists to complete such as my favourite singer, books and my favourite (and least favourite!) subjects.

Catering for Prep/Preschool to Year 12, each level has its own pocket to store certificates, drawings and notes. Guaranteed to record memories to make you laugh and cringe in 20 years time.

What is Moleskine? ( mol-a-skeen’-a)

MOLESKINE is the legendary notebook that has held the inspirations and ideas of everyone from Van Gogh, Picasso and Hemingway to famed author, Bruce Chatwin. Artists, authors, and geniuses of all variety have long appreciated the simplicity and superior functionality of these notebooks.

Originally these books were produced by small French bookbinders who supplied the Parisian stationery shops frequented by the international avant-garde. However, in 1986, the last manufacturer of Moleskine, a family operation in Tours, closed and Moleskines were gone – but not forgotten. As a result of their previous popularity and demand, they did return. In 1998, a small Milanese publisher brought these books back for writers, artists, travellers and all free-thinkers around the globe.
