Needful Things - Chatelaine Throwback Collection Notebooks!

In such a digital age, funnily enough I really like notebooks - I use them a lot to write lists, make notes and even write posts in when inspiration strikes away from my computer - so I'm just loving these retro inspired notebooks from Chatelaine.

To help celebrate their 85th anniversary, Chatelaine has introduced a selection of evocative and chic notebooks, called the Throwback Collection - with vintage pictures from Chatelaine magazine covers over the past 85 years.

Compact and eco-friendly they're 100% designed and made in Canada with 100% post-consumer recycled paper. In 5 designs - four 4X5-inch bound notebooks and one 5X7-inch spiral notebook.

Available now at Indigo stores across Canada.
