Everyday Desk Essentials

The Core System

Sterling Ink Common Planners

These are my everyday planners. I love their ultra-thin, high-quality paper and minimal layouts that give me so much mental space. The covers are durable enough to be used on their own or as a slim base for my favorite leather covers.

My core stationery essentials, curated for high-quality paper and a beautiful feel.

Leela Journals

I’m naturally drawn to anything romantic or cute and they carry both so beautifully. I love how thick the pages are for my creative journaling or bullet journaling whenever I need the extra space.

Filofax Pocket Ring Planner

The best ring planner for its size and quality. I was lucky enough to find it on sale, but the leather and stitching are well worth the investment. I carry this with me everywhere; It’s my perfect, go-to companion for daily tasks and family schedules.

Stationery Essentials

PILOT Vanishing Point Decimo

I love that the Decimo is lighter and slimmer than the original Vanishing Point. Its retractable design makes it so easy to reach for and jot things down quickly, while still keeping that luxurious fountain pen feel. The click pen style is much less overwhelming than other fountain pens.

My favorite pens and markers for creative notes and layouts.

Uni-ball Signo RT1 Gel Pen

This is one of my favorite black pens. It writes so smoothly without any scratching or skipping. I always reach for this when I’m doing a big brain dump or writing my morning pages. If you use a Stalogy planner, this is the absolute best match!

Tombow Dual Brush Pen

Much like Zebra Mildliners, these are my absolute favorite highlighters and double as beautiful art markers. I love using them to call out specific phrases or to add pops of color to my creative journal. They offer such a wide variety of shades, and I love them all for my mindful journaling and creative rituals.

Artful Accents

Naya Paperie Planner Covers

Their covers feel like a permanent home for my journals. They are handcrafted and truly worth the investment for me. I also love the personal touch in her customer service because it makes the experience even more special.

My favorite finishing touches that make my journaling session feel special.

Brass Clips

I’m a big fan of using brass clips; they’re as functional as they are beautiful. Beyond helping my planners lay flat, they add a lovely aesthetic touch to my pages. I especially love the styles from Planning with K on Etsy.

Dashboards & Pagemarkers

These are artful planner accents that are truly practical, making it effortless to find exactly where to start journaling. I especially love these handmade items from PlanitSharrDesigns; even the packaging itself is a work of art.
