Eric Small Things x SANBY Ink Stamp Collection Snack Sweater Things to Do Direct From Japan

This is an eric Small Things x SANBY collaboration self-inking stamp. eric is a Japanese eraser-stamp artist and illustrator known for small, nostalgic everyday motifs, and SANBY is a long-established Japanese stamp manufacturer; these are a collaboration between the two, not products of eric alone. Being pre-inked means no separate stamp pad: uncap it, press down, and you get a crisp black impression, which is exactly why the series works for planner decorating away from a desk. The stamp face measures 21 mm square with a body of roughly 35 x 35 x 38 mm, sized to sit in a pencil case. eric works in hand-carved eraser stamps, and that origin shows in the fine linework, so small details and lettering come out sharply rather than blocking up. This part of the range covers a snack motif, a sweater and a THINGS TO DO design, everyday objects and phrases drawn with the quiet nostalgia the artist is known for; the THINGS TO DO stamp in particular gives you a ready-made task header for a bullet journal. Nine designs exist across the series. The maker rates the pre-inked type at roughly 300 impressions and it is not designed to be refilled. Design varies by item. Made in Japan by SANBY.

1. Pull off the cap and press the stamp straight down onto the paper; no ink pad is needed.
2. Press evenly for a second rather than rocking the stamp, so the fine lines come out cleanly.
3. Lift straight up to avoid smearing, and let the impression dry a moment before closing a notebook.
4. Test on scrap paper first when stamping onto coated or glossy stock, where ink dries slowly.
5. Cap the stamp after use and store it upright so the ink stays evenly distributed in the pad.
