Planner people, REJOICE! It's the most wonderful time of year - when new designs and formats make their glamorous debut - bearing not only the dates of the upcoming year but the promise and possibilities of the unwritten page. The cleanest of slates. It's an annual ritual that every planner person (and every brand, too) enjoys.
But this year, it's personal.
Well, for us, it is.
And with good reason! As you may know, 2025 marks the 10th year of inkWELL Press, so it only makes organizational sense that we launch 10 NEW COVER DESIGNS to mark the occasion.
Each new cover (yes, even the solid ones) was inspired by a journey or destination, much like our inserts, which always come with a tale of inspiration.
So, get ready to be immersed in the intricate details of our 2025 collection – it's our 10-Year Anniversary!
FULL TRANSPARENCY: The actual 10th anniversary date of inkWELL Press is in November, but that's far too long to wait.
Here's what's new and fabulous:
NEW COVERS!!
LONDON FIELDS:
This classic grandma-chic floral reminds us of our time living in London... the moody melody of violet blue blooms and wildflowers blowing in the breeze during an afternoon in London Fields. The tourists can have Hyde Park. London Fields, come rain or shine, is where East End locals connect with nature and enjoy respite from the hustle and bustle of the "Big Smoke". Made with textured, coated paper, this hardcover snaps onto discs with InkWELL's custom mushroom punch binding, made exclusively for use with the 360° disc system.
MAJESTIC STRIPE:
The timeless elegance of an animal print… the dream of experiencing a majestic tour of India on our next holiday... This regal tiger print cover design, against this brilliant shade of refined periwinkle blue, has us inspired to roar into 2025 with confidence and strength to accomplish our goals and rise to the challenge of whatever life throws on our path. Made with textured, coated paper, this hardcover snaps onto discs with InkWELL's custom mushroom punch binding, made exclusively for use with the 360° disc system.
FRENCH LINEN FLORAL:
Imagine waking in Provence to the scent of lavender floating on the summer breeze through curtains made of soft French woven linen. A simpler way of life. A life with less phone time and more “me” time. Lazy days filled with afternoon naps and strolls through the garden. Less texting, more pen and paper… an aspirational life, or, at best, a vacation inspired by the design of our new French Linen Floral cover. Made with textured, coated paper, this hardcover snaps onto discs with InkWELL's custom mushroom punch binding, made exclusively for use with the 360° disc system.
SIENNA SUNSET:
Inspired by founder Tanya Dalton’s wedding in Tuscany in the early 2000’s, our new Sienna Sunset cover is an abstract art design reminiscent of that magical village in the heart of Tuscany. The terracotta tile rooftops and notable red brick buildings of Siena richly glow the warmth of sunset, marking the end of a day well-lived. Made with textured, coated paper, this hardcover snaps onto discs with InkWELL's custom mushroom punch binding, made exclusively for use with the 360° disc system.
PICCADILLY:
A city moving at the speed of light, or at the very least, the speed of the Tube running every which way under the centuries-old streets of London. We named this abstract print cover after one of the more well-known intersections of the city, Piccadilly Circus. Made with textured, coated paper, this hardcover snaps onto discs with InkWELL's custom mushroom punch binding, made exclusively for use with the 360° disc system.
FARFALLA:
Italian for butterfly, Farfalla is our answer to the curio trend we are seeing in fashion and home décor design. Customers loved our digital wallpaper butterfly pattern in 2023, so we wanted to create a cover design using butterflies in an understated and elegant manner that we hope you enjoy as much as we do. Made with textured, coated paper, this hardcover snaps onto discs with InkWELL's custom mushroom punch binding, made exclusively for use with the 360° disc system.
ARCADIA:
In Greek mythology, Arcadia was celebrated as an unspoiled, harmonious wilderness and domain of the mythical creature, Pan. In reality, there are a few “Arcadias” sprinkled across the globe. This cover design was named for the Arcadia found in central Phoenix, which once upon a time, was a citrus grove and is now a charming neighborhood sprinkled with those aged orange, grapefruit, and lemon trees. Defined as “a place of rustic innocence and simple, quiet pleasure,” this destination is a delightful place to quiet your mind and plan you next move. Made with textured, coated paper, this hardcover snaps onto discs with InkWELL's custom mushroom punch binding, made exclusively for use with the 360° disc system.
BALI BLACK:
This bold, painterly leaf pattern had us dreaming of tropical destinations while designing this cover for our 10-year anniversary collection. Elegant in its simple two-color palette that works as well on a planner cover as much as a dress – the team perused our travel bucket lists for the perfect place to inspire the name of this design. The only question is, who will get to check Bali off their bucket list first? Made with textured, coated paper, this hardcover snaps onto discs with InkWELL's custom mushroom punch binding, made exclusively for use with the 360° disc system.
GLACIER BLUE:
A placid lake reflecting the Montana sky above – our Glacier Blue vegan leather cover is named for that famous landmark we've been planning an unplugged escape to for the last couple of years. But while Montana remains on our traveling bucket list, this new cover in a soothing shade of soft cerulean is available now for your planning enjoyment. Made with supple vegan leather, this solid-colored hardcover snaps onto discs with InkWELL's custom mushroom punch binding and is made exclusively for use with the 360° disc system.
MOCHI PINK:
A well-known Japanese dessert, this vegan leather cover is that perfect shade of cherry blossom pink that inspires everything from sweet treats to cocktails to cute characters seen on digital billboards all over Tokyo. Made with supple vegan leather, this solid-colored hardcover snaps onto discs with InkWELL's custom mushroom punch binding and is made exclusively for use with the 360° disc system.
INSERTS
Our 2025 insert colors are an assortment of modern pastels - rich in hue but always light enough to write on.
Why pastels? These sweet neutrals have one very helpful thing in common: they all pair nicely with our newest cover designs! You can mix and match them to your heart's content – see for yourself!
Tea Time Tranquility
If you use a yellow highlighter, you'll love how color-coding pops on these misty grey pages. Inspired by drizzly mornings in London, where tea both comforts and invigorates, we let our thoughts drift to sweeter endeavors, be it scones and clotted cream, a day of shopping in Covent Garden, or whatever you're Anglo-feeling. Grey may be an unlikely pastel, but something about a hot cup of tea feels eternally reflective.
Rosé All Day
Not exactly bubblegum: our 2025 pinks are a sophisticated upgrade, filling us with memories of, yes, gelato in Italy, but also waiting in line for macarons in Paris. Americans always pick the pink ones, they said, so we did - from passion fruit to guava, raspberry, and ones that we honestly didn't recognize. Pas de regrets.
At inkWELL, pink has not always been the color of choice, but when we conduct surveys, guess which color gets the most votes? Enjoy.
La, La, Lavender
We love it when lavender is used creatively, like in a delicate cocktail, but these lilac hues have us thinking of Ube ice cream, a Filipino flavor that's super-light and refreshing, just like these colors.
None of us at inkWELL Press have been to the Philippines, but we discovered this nutty, vanilla-like flavor in Los Angeles and crave it constantly. Even when we're not hungry, there's always room for Ube.
Peachy Keen
Nothing beats the Georgia heat like a swirl of peach sorbet blended with creamy vanilla. From folksy mountain towns to bustling Atlanta and festive Savannah, there's no flavor (or color) more closely associated with a state than peach is to Georgia. Our final color palette has subtle touches of light caramel and white frosting tones to complete the mood - and make this year's insert the sweetest one yet.

Pen Holder Bungee
We love our time-tested adhesive pen loop, which is not going away (yet). But it only holds one pen at a time. Our new black vegan leather Pen Holder Bungee holds two pens OR, and we're so here for this: one pen and reading glasses.
The durable elastic allows for easy attachment to the front cover of your planner or around the entire planner to keep it closed and secure.
It works with other items, too! We've used it on journals, clipboards, and cookbooks, and if you only attach it to the front cover, it even works on an 8.5 x 11 planner or notebook!

Your feedback and passion have been the driving force behind our innovation, and we are committed to providing you with tools that inspire harmony, productivity, and joy.
Thank you for being a part of our journey! We can't wait to see where the next 10 years take us!
