Ferris Wheel Press Inks: Autumn and Winter 2020

Ferris Wheel Press Inks: Autumn and Winter 2020

Recently, Ferris Wheel Press has released three new inks in their Morningside series. They’re beautiful and subtle and elegant, and I certainly mean to do a blog post on them soon. Then again, these inks are moving off the shelves and doing quite well without me, so perhaps I’m just wafting in the wind after all.

Chicken’s Corner: Chicken Makes a Friend

Chicken’s Corner: Chicken Makes a Friend

We made a new cat friend, we being all of the humans. Chicken is ambivalent. It’s a bit ironic, I suppose, that during this endless pandemic, it’s Chicken who makes a new friend.

A Quarantine Pencil Meet

A Quarantine Pencil Meet

We recently got a bunch of photos printed, which is a lovely thing to do and something we should do more often. In doing so, while scrolling through all the pictures on my phone, I stumbled across a bunch of photos I took back over Christmas break.

8 Years

8 Years

A couple of weeks ago, we turned 8! What a glorious ride it has been, even as we come crawling through a year of this pandemic. We are a bit late on the mark, as always, but better late than never, especially when there are no late fines.

Chicken’s Corner: Spring Chicken

Chicken’s Corner: Spring Chicken

One of the perks of cold weather and a semi-functioning furnace is that Chicken is now eager to get close, climb into your lap, curl up on your stomach, or just get involved in whatever’s going on.

Classiky Desk Tool Box

Classiky Desk Tool Box

The Classiky Desk Tool Box is one of the first items that I fell in love with from Classiky, and I still use and love it today. It’s one of Classiky’s iconic pieces, and is sometimes out of stock from Japan, so we’re always glad when we get in a shipment.

Sailor Studio Ink Mystery Sample Pack

Sailor Studio Ink Mystery Sample Pack

In the midst of the supposed end-of-the-tunnel of this pandemic (during which here in Toronto things seem pretty unequivocally much, much worse then they were during any other point during the pandemic thus far), we have gotten organized with the whole Sailor Studio Ink line, which we started carrying a bit ago.
