Behind the Shop
Starter Sets & Package Deals
Here at the shop, we've been meaning to clean up our package deals offered on the site for a while now.
Sunday Mornings
Spring has finally come! For those of you in the Toronto area, you'll know what I mean when I say the sun woke up today.
Renovations Update
Jon has been going back and forth to confirm details of the renovations at the new place, while I stay at home with the baby.
Wonder Pens Friends: Boomer & Rob
I think one of the best things about bricks & mortar shops is that you get to walk in and chat with the owner and the people there.
Wonder Pens Calendar
We've got a lot of changes going on over the next few weeks, and once we open the new space, we're also hoping to get some monthly or quarterly events going on - like our monthly Letter Writing Club - in addition to our calligraphy classes schedule.
A Trip to the Supermarket
One of the things about running a bricks & mortar is that we work through the weekend and get Monday off, which means Monday is our chore day.
Brown Bears
Today I blinked and this squishy guy was doing some serious and old-school research into brown bears, and why our own brown bear is so defective.
Calligraphy Classes are Back!
Some of you may recall that we used to offer calligraphy classes, up until the summer of last year. This was a really exciting part of the bricks and mortar shop - the word calligraphy comes from the Greek, meaning beautiful writing, and of course being a fountain pen nut, how could this not be something we wanted to share.
Moving Update - Timelines & Information
Things are going full-steam ahead as we prepare for the move! We're lining up new furniture for shop display and the packing area, and Jon's big dream, to have a rack to put rolls of bubble wrap on, so he can just pull it off like tape, it's all coming true!
Moving Excitement: Rohrer & Klingner Giveaway
It's been a quiet few days here on the blog, mostly due to a series of unfortunate events, culminating in a horrific accident with a stroller and the camera.
