Let customers speak for us
Literally the best notebooks in the world… getting really difficult to find stock in the UK of the ruled. Fabulous thick paper, durable covers. Ringbinding means you can flip and use both sides of paper.
I love its whimsy
New stationery is a thing of joy and the lovely packaging and note took it up a level. I bought the wrong size notebook band as I was so taken by the colour that I did not read the sizing properly. I asked if I could return it and it was all dealt with so efficiently and politely. All round happy and itching to buy more.
lovely presentation, easy to understand and get into and a brilliant exercise to make everyday a bit brighter!
I've been using The Completist planners for years. I love how flexible they are with their binding. The paper quality is top. They use G F Smith paper which is my favourite. Usually i get the undated versions from them but i loved this colour and couldn't help myself! Love it.
Just received this diary. It’s an instant hit. So chic and such a great layout. It’s now part of my evening routine taking time to reflect on the day. Love!
Absolutely love these pens. Feel lovely to hold and write beautifully. Great selection of colours.
Great quality paper, gorgeous shade of orchid pink and no plastic delivery. Very happy. Thank you
Quality to do list notebook, with lovely thick paper. Papersmiths always package it up so nicely as well. Even a small notebook purchase feels like high end luxury.
Really good quality, looks great 👍👍
Excellent, just what I needed, and nice thick, non bleed paper tops it off. Fast delivery.
I lost my first primo pen after coming back to America and was thrilled to receive another 3 after this latest Christmas. The friendly postcard and the quality of the envelope in which the pens arrived were heart-warming additions! These are the best pens I own! 10/10
Loved the personal service and superb presentation & personalised message
Leaving gift for friend and she really loved it
Loveliest packaging and little note x
