Oh Joy!

February 21, 2010 by Lisa

I have a deep and abiding love for the sticky note. I can’t live without them. Okay, so I could but why would I want to?

Like many bibliophiles, my love for the page is accompanied by a love for stationery products of all kinds, the aforementioned sticky notes in particular, but journals and notecards and labels and file folders capture my affections as well. Most particularly if they are pretty. We bibliophiles like function, yes, but we like aesthetics too.

Well, pretty and functional perfectly describe Chronicle Books’ Oh Joy! line of office products. Look how pretty the sticky notes and “to-dos” are:

The envelopes that accompany the stationery are as gorgeous as the stationery itself. In addition, Chronicle offers file folders and mailers and a wonderfully useful noteblock, all in the beautiful Oh Joy! design:

I have them. I love them.

I’ve also been enjoying the Cath Kidston mini journals, which are the perfect size to stash in my purse or bag. I took one with me on a recent trip to Nicaragua to jot down my thoughts and impressions each day. It was perfect (and, as you see, cute as well).

Finally, I think my favorite product (next to the sticky notes, of course) is the From My Garden notecards. The designs are so gorgeous that I’m considering framing them to hang on my wall. What do you think? There are three other equally beautiful designs, four total.

Guess what? You too can enjoy the function and beauty of the Oh Joy! products. Chronicle Books has graciously offered to give away a complete line of Oh Joy! office products to one 5 Minutes for Books reader! Leave a comment on this post to be entered into the drawing. Only one entry, please, and we’ll announce the winner next week. I know you will love it as much as I do!

Thanks to Chronicle Books for providing me with the products listed here.

Wife and mother, Bible teacher and blogger, Lisa loves Jesus, coffee, dark chocolate and, of course, books. Read more of her reflections at Lisa writes….
