New Classiky Washi Tape
***
In other news, despite a recent snowfall, with the longer days and the sunshine out, the hope of spring is in the air. Caleb loves the snow, marching through it to make new paths and explore, with Super romping figure eights around him, but I'm more of a spring flower.
It's still cold out, but I'll take cold and sunshine over the grey any day. Here in Toronto, it was so warm that the we had the shop door open for most of Saturday, and it looks to be a warm week ahead.
With the spring ahead of us, we've got a lot of new releases coming up in March and April, and I can't wait for some of them. There are a few special editions that have been announced, like the Lamy Safari special edition and the Olive Traveler's Notebook, but we have a few new lines coming to the shop as well.
The warm weather will also mean a new crop of inks in, and I know some of you have been eagerly awaiting temperatures high enough to order ink without worry.
But best of all will be those clear and crisp walks with just a jacket or sweater, a trip to the cafe with just a book or a journal instead of damp mitts and scarves, and farmers markets and flowers everywhere. Soon enough!

Classiky washi tape in general has the same texture and sizing as other washi tapes, so it doesn’t typically take fountain pen ink very well – however, the “packaging” tape, or this series of wide grid tapes, does take fountain pen ink fairly well, or at the very least, the ink dries on it firmly, it doesn’t smear or wipe off. The grid tapes also do have a bit of a different texture, and rather than peeling off the roll, it’s backed, so you peel the backing off of the tape (hope that made sense!).

Hi Liz!
It looks like you’ve written on the washi – does ink actually dry on it? I’ve tried writing on washi in the past, and found that ink of all sorts just sits on top and smears no matter how long I let it dry. Does the classiky tape have a different texture?
