Uh-oh, I’m in “Daycraft” trouble.
In 2010, a very clever marketing person at Daycraft sent me a couple of Daycraft 2011 diaries and notebooks to spread the word among non-Asian bloggers and to see whether the Western market would be ready for their products. While I was pretty positive about the products themselves, I did not have the time to review them and I gave the Make My Day diary to my sister. That was a mistake. She loves it. And now, I want to get the 2012 edition for her for Christmas (and some of the Animal Pals books, a Signature sketchbook for myself, an Animaland planner for her, a couple of Cream Cookie bookies for friends, Juicy books, Cantoons… you get the idea), but I can’t find a single online shop that would ship ALL of them to Europe.
Imho, Daycraft notebooks are a cheerful alternative to Moleskines if you want to be a little less serious about what you’re doing. And if you take a look at the covers, you really get the idea that those people love to pay attention to details. They are also on Facebook, just in case you’re curious.
Yes, I found the links on the Daycraft website and yes, I found Mr. Lee’s savvy comment on notizbuchblog and I found the UK retailer (without online shop) TrinityXtras, but: verachan.com ships from Australia (customs? Shipping time?) and doesn’t have all of them either; and the UK retailer apparently doesn’t ship to people who just want to order a couple of Daycraft notebooks.
Yes, you can buy the Cookie ones in the MoMa shop, but I want to avoid paying horrendous shipping fees at multiple online shops.
And you can find out more about Daycraft notebooks on all these websites:
- Plannerisms
- OfficeSupplyGeek
- Notebookstories
- Planet Millie
- Notebook Loves Pen
- notizbuchblog (German)
So… anyone knows where I can get them in Europe for Christmas?
