One product was pretty good, but wasn't perfect. It was discontinued a couple years ago and while many people had stockpiled a supply, many folks were starting to run low, myself included. So, my husband and I decided to make our own. We started looking for \"the perfect paper\" back in October of 2016. We finally chose this stock in January of 2017 and started designing our books. Picking the cover stock and the name was the next challenge. We chose chipboard and a retro-inspired name to keep the books timeless and open to whatever you need them to be. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e We bring the \"ring\" – you bring the \"color\"!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sky Lab Letterpress","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40383047401633,"sku":"COL-O-RING-DIPPER","price":6.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0078\/5642\/2971\/products\/COLORING_MINI_A.jpg?v=1751028271","url":"https:\/\/www.atlasstationers.mom\/products\/col-o-ring-dipper","provider":"Atlas Stationers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
