Hi everyone! We are so excited to announce the SUMMER COLLECTION is coming on Wednesday, May 17th! Alongside the Summer Collection, we also have some extra items bundled into this launch! PRICING UPDATES Before we share all the new products and designs in this launch, we wanted to share something we have been working on behind the scenes. ​​We really appreciate everyone who fills out the surveys we send out, and we genuinely read every single response. One comment that came up time and time again is how expensive shipping is. It’s definitely a struggle of ours, as shipping is just so expensive right now for everyone.  Unfortunately, we can’t control everything, but something we CAN do and have been working hard on these last six months is putting changes in place to allow us to reduce the prices on our products. We looked at every item we carry, and while some things will be staying the same, most of our best selling products are getting a price decrease. We were particularly focused on reducing the prices of those everyday items such as our notebooks and notepads. So while we can’t fix the shipping prices anytime soon, we really hope these price reductions on our products make a difference. You will see the price changes reflected on the site TODAY. So without further ado, here is what's launching on Wednesday, May 17th: SUMMER COLLECTION The first items in our new Summer Collection are 4 new notebooks, paired with themed accessories for each new design.  *pricing changes* A6 - Was $29 NOW $25 B6 - Was $33 NOW $29 Travelers - Was $33 NOW $31 A5 (192 pages)  - Was $37 NOW $35 B5 - Was $41 NOW $39 Inspired by summertime activities and finding adventure, each notebook has been designed with different personalities in mind, so you can find your perfect match.
