Kind Words Stationery - New, More Masculine Designs!

Recommended Posts

At the request of several customers who asked me for custom sets, I've designed some more masculine stationery. I've listed 13 new sets today, and while some are cute and girly, at least 8 are more masculine. Most of them allow for heavy input from the custom too, regarding lines/no lines, colour and stlye of lines and text and fonts.

 

Send me an etsy PM if you'd like something custom designed just for you!

I love these designs. While they are more "masculine," they are designs I would (and will) buy, too.

I love those little prints in the corners of the page! Are they your own creations? They seem to be veru similar to thelithograph prints that one can see in books from the past. They reminded me of a web comic that used Victorian era images to talk about contemprary issues.

That is exactly what they are! I've always been fascinated by that era of printmaking and the style of line art they used. These images are from old letterpressed books. :)

 

I agree though. I don't really consider these masculine, just more unisex. I'm definitely using some of these myself for pen pal letters!

Me too, my long term (yet another one that I probably won't see through) is to use the lithograph style to render the traditionally rendered Indian mythical figures.

 

And these two images as a Thank You to reminding me about it with your lovely stationary, I loved the Holmes series (Please right click and view them for high resoultion!).

Ooooh. The first pic looks like my custom order. Saskia is great to work with. She made me exactly what I wanted. I can't wait for it to arrive!

      I have the Sailor Naginata and some fancy blade nibs coming after 2022 by a number of new workshop from China.  With all my respect, IMHO, they are all (bleep) in doing chinese characters.  Go use a bush, or at least a bush pen.

      It is the reason why I'm so keen on the idea of a personal library — of pens, nibs, inks, paper products, etc. — and spent so much money, as well as time and effort, to “build” it for myself (because I can't simply remember everything, especially as I'm getting older fast) and my wife, so that we can “know”; and, instead of just disposing of what displeased us, or even just not good enough to be “given the time of day” against competition from >500 other pens and >500 other inks for our at

      Agreed.  And I think it’s good to be aware of this early on and think about at the point of buying rather than rationalizing a purchase..
    • A Smug Dill
      Alas, one cannot know “good” without some idea of “bad” against which to contrast; and, as one of my former bosses (back when I was in my twenties) used to say, “on the scale of good to bad…”, it's a spectrum, not a dichotomy. Whereas subjectively acceptable (or tolerable) and unacceptable may well be a dichotomy to someone, and finding whether the threshold or cusp between them lies takes experiencing many degrees of less-than-ideal, especially if the decision is somehow influenced by factors o

      I got my first real fountain pen on my 60th birthday and many hundreds of pens later I’ve often thought of what I should’ve known in the beginning. I have many pens, the majority of which have some objectionable feature. If they are too delicate, or can’t be posted, or they are too precious to face losing , still they are users, but only in very limited environments..  I have a big disliking for pens that have the cap jump into the air and fly off. I object to Pens that dry out, or leave blobs o
