Ooooh this is a real goody!

Recently I was invited to a little afternoon tea at Telegram Paper Goods – Melbourne-based importers / distributors of seriously gorgeous stationery from all over the world. It was such a lovely little event (I was mainly just excited I got to eat an enormous CUPCAKE) and Telegram’s delectable range was truly enough to make any stationery lover go weak at the knees!

Some of Telegram’s fabulous products includes super-cute Korean stationery brand O-Check, silky-smooth notepads and paper by famed French stationers Clairefontaine… and for the boys – Rhodia, who make the most incredible sketchpads, and have a cult following amongst architects and designers all over the world. (Actually, I just bought my first Rhodia notepad, and I am totally hooked…)

I am so excited I about this giveaway! Telegram are offering one lucky TDF reader a little gift-pack full of O-Check Korean stationery goodness! How great is that? Thanks Telegram!

To be in the running, leave me a comment on this post before the end of today. Tomorrow I’ll pull someone’s name out of a hat and let you know!

Update : entries for the giveaway have now closed… thanks so much to everyone for the unprecedented response! I will post the lucky winner around lunchtime today (Tues 11th August).

mmmm cupcakes…. (and tea cosys!!)

Top – G Lalo Verge Frank Letter Writing Paper and J Herbin Wax Seals, Bottom – O’Check excercise books in that gorgeous vintage bicycle basket!

    My sister and I were such stationery nuts as kids, still are I guess, we would play at running our own stationery shop, and of course, all our pocket money was spent at the newsagents!

    This has certainly bought all the stationery geeks out of the closet. I took never got over the childhood obsession. I just moved on from itty bitty bin pen holders, troll doll pens and hello kitty notebooks to vintage ceramics, lamy pens and o-check.
