The Napkin Sketchbook is Where the Best Ideas Will Happen

— February 26, 2014 — Art & Design
J.K. Rowling, Eminem and Aaron Sorkin have all at one time written brilliant ideas on napkins and now people can follow suit in a more formalized way with the Napkin Sketchbook. Although it might seem like a cliche, ideas happen (as it is inscribed inside the cover) at any moment and a person will scramble to write it down on any takeaway surface they can before losing it.

For those full of nostalgia and love of all things pop culture, the Napkin Sketchbook is the perfect way to ensure good ideas are never lost. The Napkin Sketchbook is a sturdy leather case that comes with 10 napkins and a sharpie to get people started. Designed by Fridolin Beisert of Baum-kuchen and made in Los Angeles, the Napkin Sketchbook is priced at $38.
