Help finding a posh desk diary

9 replies

I'd like to buy my mum a nice diary. She normally has a calendar on her desk so I was thinking some kind of posh diary that can open out flat but doesn't look cheap. Had a look on the john lewis website and in paperchase but was not inspired.
Or alternatively some ideas for my mum who has everything....

Brill thanks for all the suggestions - have now discovered that I'm looking for an 'engagement diary' this is helping to narrow the search. - I think I started looking out for something posh/leather but think I'm erring on the side of teh martha stewart/RHS ones.

Something by paperblanks?. I have a 2012 engagements diary from them and I just love the quality. I think you can get one for less than 20 quid.

IMO you would be better looking in the shop rather than online as you will be able to assess the quality.
Paperchase had some nice ones in when I was last in and someone else has suggested bookshops. Also look in house of Fraser.
