What do you think of the dots?

The dot grid format is still somewhat new to Rhodia and we are wondering if you might tell us your experiences with it. I typically  prefer a completely blank page, but I find the dot format subtle enough to provide structure to the page without being constricting. We offer the dots in two different formats – gray dots on the off-white paper in the Webbie and violet on white in the staple-bound pads.

Are you looking to try the dot format in the future? Any specific ideas on how you will use it?

Erasable ones do exist, though I’ve never had reason to want to try them. Watercolor pencils are probably my favorite because they can be used in many different ways. Continue reading »
