Product description
Back in 2017 we wanted to spread the word about how to spell our kind of stationery correctly.
So we created a simple lightweight tote bag with the words 'Always stationery, never stationary' printed on it. We gave it away to attendees at a big design event we were taking part in. Those were the days! Every now and again a photograph of the bag pops up on the internet and people ask how to get one. So we've brought it back but in the form of our heavyweight canvas book bag. Featuring our handy pocket and duo-tone handles, this is the third tote in our trio. Beach? Park? Further afield? It's oh-so-ready for going places.
Our book bag is perfect for carrying your mags, books and stationery supplies. Completely custom made, our sturdy tote is made from heavyweight cotton canvas and features a handy external pocket for your pens and cards.
12oz fabric dyed in olive green with duo-tone handles in olive green and biscuit pink. Yum.
Bag dimensions: 42cm x 32cm
Handles: 60cm long
Pocket dimensions: 22cm x 27cm
Designed by Papersmiths.

Much more fun and meaningful than something saccharin and cheesy
Favourite ever notebooks, gorgeous colours and excellent quality for my fountain pen obsession! Used them for years for my morning pages and can’t wait to buy the A6 size.
I've bought about 4 of these notebooks to journal in and I absolutely adore them. They are beautiful in design, with high-quality paper and seem to last forever. More colours would be fantastic!
....but a lovely pencil. I bought it for my choir music file, haven't had a chance to use it yet but looks excellent
Love the design of this pocket pencil. So lightweight & just fits beautifully in my hand. Will be purchasing more.
Perfect size and layout for all my diary needs. Gorgeous quality of paper and a perfect lavender blue. Love it
It’s the perfect black fineliner!
Best shopping ever! I bought the same item from their official website before, but the product page had many flaws and the price was very high.
This time, I was surprised by how quickly and smoothly the delivery arrived, especially since receiving packages at my house is difficult. The the price was affordable. Although I chose premium shipping, I used a half-price coupon when I bought it, making it cheaper than the official website.
Most importantly, Papersmiths' quality is excellent, everything is just perfect. Can you believe they even wrapped it and included a handwritten greeting card with my name on it! It definitely made my day and will probably make my year. These small details and kindness are more precious than anything else.
I love this planner- last year I used another and didn’t accomplish as many goals as I normally do when I use the daily goal digger. I’m so pleased I got a 2026 version. Excellent quality, with goal setting and reflection for daily life and big picture goals. It looks handsome in black. Also Papersmiths is the best place to purchase - super fast delivery and a hand written note- just lovely- it’s never too late to ditch your current system and get one that actually works for you!
I wanted to stop buying reusable pens so bought a cost effective fountain pen and this does the job perfectly. It is nicely designed, small and neat and writes beautifully. I am using the ink cartridge but also bought the converter to use just ink. Very pleased with it.
I've been buying MiGoals diaries for 6 years and I love them. The prompts at the beginning are very helpful to plan my goals for the year ahead.
Amazing planner! I'm going into 2026 with excitment that some big goals are going to be smashed.
This planner is just perfect. The layout works really well, it’s lovely quality too. Really nice touch with a personalised thank you card inside and a message of thanks via Instagram. Will definitely use Papersmiths again.
I buy one of these diaries each year. They fit in a pocket or handbag. The monthly planner is very helpful. The plastic wallet is especially helpful for putting tickets/ booking confirmations in when planning ahead. Useful in places where internet or phone connection unreliable. Layout of week and hours useful for recording time spent on tasks. In an ever changing appointment landscape, easy to jot down potential meetings and confirm later. One possible improvement - a small pencil to fit in the pocket or the spine.
Beautiful little compact diary with clear elements for targets, appointments, notes. I'm really looking forward to using this to keep my year on track and motivate me
