Ten inks for the first week of term
September 3, 2026 · 3 min read
There's a particular feeling to the first week of autumn term: new planner, ivy turning red on the old stone arches, and the conviction that this is the year your notes will be beautiful.
The Zebra Sarasa Clip vintage set helps more than it should. They're dusty, grown-up colours, a bit like old book cloth: Sepia for dates, Green Black for body text, Wine Red for the one sentence you'll want to find again in December.
Our suggestion for an undated weekly spread: Blue Black for appointments, Lake Blue for ideas, Camel Yellow for anything that made you happy.
