Brooklyn Art Library

Have you ever had one of those moments when you’re in a store and you feel that everything was placed there just for you to buy? When my friend took me into the Brooklyn Art Library right before Christmas, I experienced that moment and then some. Now, I know I have written about this before but I am an office supply geek to my core. The Brooklyn Art Library had every notebook, pen, day planner, vintage tag and knickknack one could ever want. I went in, blacked out, and woke up with a bag of the most excellent little prizes. Not only is it an awesome store but it’s also home to The Sketchbook Project. If you haven’t heard of this before it’s an initiative where you fill an entire sketchbook with your designs, doodles, day dreams, etc. and send it back for the library to catalog. It’s a pretty amazing concept. If you live in the Brooklyn area, it’s certainly worth checking out. I have officially found my new favorite store and a great place to get inspired.
