    Default A5 letter sets

    I prefer lines (OCD can't stand crooked lines) but I love illustrations and such on my stationary. Where do you guys get yours and what brands do you suggest?

    But where do you get any letter sets? I'm looking for more websites to stalk.

    I like to buy plain Tomoe River pads, add an image to the sheet, and lay it on a lined page for a writing guide. Prefer to make my own envelopes, though.

    Nanami paper or paperforfountainpens.com sells the TR paper and they have envelopes.
    Also check out The Paper Source for other papers.
    Onionskin from JBB's Etsy shop is yum!

    I end up using Tomoe River pads for my final drafts, with the Crown Mill page Guide under the current page
    But that's not a set :-)

    Steal some from the pen pal thread, take some pressure off Type40 and VO. I swear they write everyone :-)
