“We made these Snap Pads to capture and make it easy to use those loose papers. Perfect for To Do lists or for working out ideas. Wrapped with Pressed Cotton Fabric for durability. Patented. Handmade in Japan.”
How to use
To use make holes in the top edge of the papers with a standard 2-hole puncher and snap them into the Snap Pad. To use the A5 size, just cut the A4 (or 8½ x 11″) papers in half, punch holes, and snap them in! For A6 size, cut the A4 paper into four equal pieces. Each holds about 100 sheets.
Personalize to your liking
“Everyone has their own unique way of using the Snap Pad. You can choose from a variety of our Snap Pad papers and accessories—Snap Calendar, Snap Pockets, and Fabric Tabs. We’ve seen Snap Pads used for photo albums, file folders, menus, and for tons of other purposes. In fact, we made the Snap Pad to intentionally allow for functions unintended by us to be discovered by the person using it.”
Making the invisible visible
“Stationery makes invisible, but important things, into something visible. The moment you close a digital display or phone, your calendar is gone. That’s what we feel is not satisfying about some digital solutions for things like to-do lists. There is still a very clear function for paper and stationery.”
――Mike Abelson / Yuri Abelson
Snap Pad Accessories
Limit distractions and return to mindfulness with paper. The refillable Snap Pad, calendar, and accessories help us balance digital with paper to make each day more meaningful.
Learning from Japan
“The craftspeople, suppliers, and small workshops found in Japan make things not to be found anywhere else. We are fortunate to work with family businesses that are so focused on their craft. Don’t put Postalco items on a shelf or in a drawer. Their beauty is revealed through daily use. They will help you feel good at home and be ready in a meeting.”
