So I have a few filofaxes and I like the notebooks mostly for the paper. They come with a cardboard protector. I have binned a few of these until recently when I was looking for a second pen holder for my flex. I bought a Leuchturm 1917 Copper pen loop and put it onto the card and trimmed the paper just a little with a paper trimmer (Lidl's finest) and if you look at the photo left you can see a standard A5 cardboard page from a A5 notebook underneath et voila, a pen holder. I could laminate it, I suppose but right now it's working.
Then I watched a YouTube video with Land of Jane N Rocco talking about
pretty planners and I saw she had a hack for bigger pens, use a binder clip and space it to allow the pen clip go in. The pen in the picture is too wide for the loop but the binder clip does a perfect job. I'm not sure I'd leave it on the cardboard because I'm sure it would age it faster but it's a clever hack. I'm sure it's known elsewhere but I've never seen it before. Smart idea.
