This is my second planner from Mark + Fold, and once again it’s proving to be an excellent choice. I run a small B&B, and I use the planner to keep track of bookings. Having a clear month-by-month view is invaluable. I can see at a glance what’s coming up and plan the rest of my life around my work.
The design is beautifully simple, with nothing unnecessary to distract from what matters. The paper feels wonderful to write on, and the elegant racing green cover makes it a pleasure to use every day.
It’s rare to find something that balances practicality and design so perfectly. Mark + Fold seem to get it just right.
Such a great idea - far better than sticky notes, so easy to find your page, I use multiple in my planner and diary. So useful and a lovely material
I wanted something neater and less plastic than the sticky page markers we are all know. All the other metal options I saw were quite a lot more bulky. These fit the bill beautifully and arrived so beautifully packaged and live quietly on my various pages gently guiding me to the correct page
I absolutely love this little notebook, although it is slightly bigger than I thought it would be. That's just down to my lack of knowledge of paper sizes though.
The whole experience of receiving the package, opening and unwrapping it was fabulous. The postcard with a thank you message and the embossed tissue paper just lift the experience to a higher plane.
The cover design is outstanding and the texture of the book in my fingers is fabulous. I am holding off on using it until my holiday in July, so I'll have to report back on my return. I can't wait to start putting marks on those pages!
The quality and feel of the 2 notebooks I’ve received are sublime. The paper is so smooth and ideal when using a fountain pen. The workmanship is beautiful. I look forward to ordering more. They are perfect just what I wanted.
Being already a fan of the diaries and journals, I gave this as a present to a writer friend, a pairing of the A5 and A6 exercise books. They write with a fountain pen and were delighted with the quality of the paper, binding, and the way the books open.
Three things I need in a diary to sit alongside my notebook in my Lochby cover. (a) simplicity, no over-drawn images and complications, just functional & beautiful design. (b) It has to be as 'green' as possible. (c) opens flat and is absolutely compatible with multiple fountain pen inks. This works on all counts.
These MARK+FOLD exercise books recreate that childhood joy of a new term and fresh possibilities, but with adult-level quality and beauty. When you write in a MARK+FOLD exercise book, everything seems possible!
its the most elegant notebook i ever bought. love the papper feels so smooth when you write plus the minimal design makes it so posh
loved the colour combination of blue with orange its an eye catcher
everyone asks where its from
The leather is sublime, the smell of it , the sleek look love everything about it
Stunning quality, a joy to write on with a fountain pen, and each cover gives a different delight.
Paper was lovely and thick and nice to write on but I didn’t like the layout.
I recently purchased a couple of the Mark+Fold notebooks (Sequoia and Lichen, lined), and they are truly premium notebooks. The ivory paper is thick with a touch of tooth, and my fountain pens don’t feather or bleed through. The binding is superb, and the notebooks lie flat. I highly recommend these notebooks.
I am an avid fountain pen user and carry notebooks for work. There are a lot of good notebooks on the market many of which work inconsistently with different inks/nibs. What I like about this one is that quality of the paper is such, that it works across my pens with consistent results. It also fits my Lochby notebook cover perfectly. This is an expensive product but some things are worth the expense.
As a stationery lover, I’ve treated myself to a year’s subscription and it has been wonderful to receive a surprise parcel every quarter and to experience different Mark and Fold products. My latest parcel included the lovely classic notebook, which is a joy to use.
I bought these page markers for my Hobonichi planner so that I can mark the current date, the new month page, and clip some spare grid paper to the journal because I find that it just doesn't have enough spare grid paper for me to write things that aren't well suited to the day planner pages.
The Hobonichi planner pages are extremely thing but the brass page markers do not cause the marked pages (including the ones used to clip extra grid paper) to flare out or cause the binding to noticeably bend/curve. The brass page markers are very thin and well suited to my use case for this reason. They are also very light, which I prefer (in case anyone wants it to serve as a paperweight, I do not think it would serve this purpose).
The brass colour is simple yet elegant. The design is minimalist (which I like a lot), so I don't doubt that they will be a timeless possession.
I would definitely recommend this product if you are looking for a page marker.
I’ve used the beautiful diaries since they were produced . I love the feel of the paper , so that even my ugly scrawl feels ‘ worth while’ . I have the notebooks and the grid pads which I use when I’m preparing a weave design , again, even the rubbishy first ideas look good and give me a boost. I enjoy flicking through them to see how my thoughts evolve , and the nice paper means I do keep these first ideas rather than discarding them as I move on.
Just a lovely company .
The collaboration with Community Clothing is actually , quite important as an idea seen through to delivery .
