Pen Heaven Products are the Bomb
2022 Holiday Gift Guide / November 5, 2022

I love Pen Heaven.  The products are great.  I’ve never had an issue, and this time is even better than before.  The Parker Jotter XL Pink Gold Ballpoint Pen & Sorrento Medium Leather Journal are amazing.  They are so nice, and available together, for one price. The Parker Jotter XB Pink Gold Ballpoint Pen writes so smooth!  It glides so easily.  No gunk on the page, you know from pressing too hard.  It’s the perfect pen.  The Sorrento Medium Leather Journal is great for putting thoughts in.  As a matter of fact, that’s what I’ve been doing.  These two products are great but sold together makes them even better.  You get them both for one money. Pen Heaven is great for all of your journaling needs.  The paper makes the pen glide so smoothly, and the pen, itself, is so smooth.  I love Pen Heaven’s products and will be doing business with them in the future. OMG!  I just found an Advent Calendar with these products.  I need this Advent Calendar.  It’s so great!  There’s 25 days of Ink!  I can’t believe it took me until now to find it. My 25-year-old, daughter, is a teacher, and these are some of the…

Pen Heaven is Amazing!
2022 Valentine's Gift Guide / January 18, 2022

  Pen Heaven This Frugal Family really LOVES Pen Heaven.  We received a few products from them, and they are now our Go-To shop for stationery, and such.  I love my Orange Journal.  I have Multiple Sclerosis, and the orange is the color of the Ribbon for MS.  So, I use, this journal, as my go-to for appointments.  I write everything to do with MS down in this fantastic little journal. The Journal holds so much information about Multiple Sclerosis.  I’m glad I received it when I did.  Diagnosis was only a few months ago.  We have a long way to come, with MS, but this orange journal will get me on my journey. I also received an amazing ink pen.  It can write in any direction, even upside down, for that matter.  It’s fantastic.  I use it in my journal, even when I’m getting infusions.  I can write about the infusions, as an indication of what to expect next time.  This Space Pen comes in a variety of colors, as well.  Check out the entire listing for Space Pens here. There are so many great things about Pen Heaven.  They have all your writing, and journaling, needs in one…

Review: Notebook Doodles Journals
2019 Easter Gift Guide / February 18, 2019

My daughter loves the Notebook Doodles Peace Love and Notebook Doodles Fabulous Fashion Guided Journals.  She really likes the pages that ask her questions, because she loves answering them.  I’ve looked at them, and she’s doing a fine job. The Notebook Doodles Peace Love And Music Journal is magical.  You don’t really have to answer the questions, you can write whatever you want, but it starts with “What does harmony mean to you?” and ends with “Write a short story starting with this sentence:  Sophia had a secret talent.”  On every even page, new questions, on the odd pages, either blank, or pictures to color.  It’s a really awesome book.  You should get one for your pre-teen. Here’s some features: This inspiring guided journal for tweens ages 8 – 12 is designed to build confidence and self-esteem in young girls!

Ellie Claire art journal make a great Holiday Gift!
2018 Holiday Gift Guide / November 16, 2018

I love the Ellie Claire Art Journals I received.  They are so beautiful, the pictures in them are fascinating.  I can’t get over all the pretty colors, and fantastic art work.  And, the quotes are so inspirational.  My sister loves them, too.  I gifted one to her, and she uses it daily. I used different pens/markers in the book I kept, and let me tell you, there is no bleeding through the paper.  The paper is so thick, it’s great.  I also gave a book to my 21 year old, daughter, and she loves the thickness of the paper as well.  She uses her inspirational journal for college, and says the professor even loves it, and asked where to get her hands on one. One of the sayings “Nature decrees that we do not exceed the speed of light.  All other impossibilities are optional.” is my favorite.  I love this saying, and it’s written by Robert Brault.  Another saying, “Dear Lord, grant me the grace of wonder.  Surprise me, amaze me, awe me in every crevice of Your universe…I do not ask to see the reason for it all; I ask only to share the wonder of it all.” by…
