The Whimsy Bookworm: A Book Blog from India

 Hello Loves 🌝  Here are some recent stationery loves of mine:  A pouch to hold an edit of my pens and some supplies.  This one is from The Black Canvas and I love it so much.  A bunch of Muji Pens and Sarasa Snoopy pens. Forever faves both of these.  I love Kaweco Ink Pens.  Small, compact and so easy on the hands.   A thing of beauty.  Contents of my sticker and stationery supply box. This is a small edit I made in the beginning of the year and have added to it as I’ve used up my supplies.  The box my 2024 Ink Bucket planner came in. I used it as a storage box for some planner bits. 

  Hello Loves!  Long time no see.  Life’s been life-ing away.  I’ve been reading, low-key journaling and cooking new recipes and resting.  It’s been OK.  Here are some recent stationery favourites of mine.  Two cute pen pouches that hold an assortment of pens and highlighters.  My gratitude journal and some favourite stickers.  A felt envelope pouch for stickers. And an open pouch with my most used pens. 

  Happy Women's Day ♀🌹👩♀🌹👩♀🌹👩  All women, everywhere deserve a life with respect and dignity and safety.  Here's what my day looked like today:  Sti reading this book that I'm enjoying quite a bit.  A spot of rest and relaxation.  Some planner catching up.  Praying to Shivji.  Some cute things.  New pouches for my pens and things.  A simple and good day 💛✨🙏🌿📖🌻💛

Hello Loves!  How is mid-January treating you?  The air here in Mumbai is ever so slightly better. The nights are finally cooler and by that I mean my AC is finally off.  I am reading some amazing books.  Just finished reading The Memoirs of Valmiki Rao by Lindsay Pereira and I loved it.  Am also reading a very cozy Japanese book right now- What You are Looking For is in the Library. I am 45% in and can't wait to go back to it.  Here are some glimpses of what life has looked like lately..   Life Lately~~~ Rejigging my Book Cart, still needs a major overhaul and I am actively thinking about lining up my 24 reads for 2024 and using my pink Raskog to hold them.  A pink pouch to hold some of my annotating supplies.  A cute little bookmark.  Light.  And my planner that is still bringing me a lot of joy. 

 Hello Loves!  Another Friday and another batch of Friday Faves.  This time we are doing a whole bunch of random faves.  First up is this gorgeous hand embroidered phone cover that was made by Rainbow Tales for us! Isn't it just lovely?!  My Kindle and my reading pen pouch. This cutie is from Paw Prints Accessories also on Instagram.  These beautiful Chhau brooches are painstakingly handmade by the lovely folks over at Naksha. We have so many beautiful jewellery pieces from Naksha and highly recommend them for beautiful fabric and wood-based jewellery.  Switched up the art on our walls and love the brightness these cute prints bring to the room. These prints are from Finding Daisies .  A beautiful handmade journal from Kagajphul . Love the art and the gamcha backdrop! So quintessentially Bengali!  Loving making a TBR pile in my pink IKEA Raskog cart. Very handy for keeping a capsule collection of books to dive into whenever I want!  H...

 Hello, hello, Sharing a lovely haul of notebooks and pouches from The White Ink Papeterie .  This huge notebook- think it is A3 in size- is part of a set. It came with a matching daisy print pouch and an acrylic cat and daisies keychain! So cute!  This is the keychain that came with the set! The girl stickers are their own thing. Love the art and quirky designs.   Here is a better shot of the cat keychain! Isn't it cute? The acrylic is very high quality.  Here is the daisy pouch! It is quite large and can easily fit a couple of thin A5 sized notebooks and a bunch of other things. It is made out of very high quality canvas and the print is really good quality as well! Super happy with these!  This is the other pouch we got. It comes with a floral notebook.  All the sheets in the notebooks are perforated and can be easily torn out, which is always a handy feature.  Check them out if you are looking for notebooks, pouches, stickers an...

 Hello 2023!    Be Good.  Be Kind.  Be Fun.  Be Gentle.  I hope this New Year is fantastic for you and me.  :)  I hope you and me have a wonderful 2023.  I started my year with some of my usual New Year activities. I set up my planners. Made some lists.  Filled ink in my ink pens.  I love the New Year, I love the new start and fresh clean slate and endless possibility the New Year brings with it.  I love making lists and dreaming and hoping and manifesting.  :)  We treated ourselves to the Sulekha Inks for Christmas. I wanted them for so so so long. But I couldn't find them online, till I finally saw them on Kaagazi and promptly got a few beautiful colours.  :)  We filled up a ton of our ink pens today and I am so pleased.  Coloured in the pages of my planner.  Didn't do a perfect job. But it was a nice way to spend my morning.  Sunflowers!  :)  I didn't really start on a book y...
