Aluminum Circa Discs in Blue

Not too long ago, I was thrilled to be able to review the new aluminum Levenger Circa discs because I had long been lamenting the fact that the old nickel discs were discontinued.  Recently I went back to browse around the Levenger site, and was surprised to see that they now offered the 1″ aluminum circa discs in multiple colors.  Besides the blue version that you see above, they also come in green, purple, red, and the original silver color now.

I decided to set up a new notebook with my new blue aluminum circa discs and the super smooth Rhodia Levenger Circa notebook paper that I will be using to try and keep track of everything I need to get done.  One of the reasons I selected the blue discs over the other color options was because I thought I would like how the purple ruling on the pages would look with the blue accent, and it turns out that they do look pretty nice together.

Above you can see the full frontal view of the blue aluminum discs with a translucent cover and my picture of a somewhat off-center Yankee Stadium.  The ability to match the discs with one of the many colored covers that Levenger has, or to coordinate with your own picture as I have here is another great reason to check out these discs.  So far they are performing just as expected, there does not seem to be any sort of coating or coloring added that impacts how the pages turn, nor does the color seem to be rubbing off on anything.  I have not had these for very long, but I am definitely a big fan so far, so head on over to Levenger to look at the Aluminum Circa Discs in multiple colors if you are looking to spruce up your Circa Notebook.

    The more cool Circa stuff that comes out, the harder it is for me to resist purchasing one. I’m getting close.

    @Elise – That made me think…it would be awesome to see the Giant’s coaching staff with Levenger Circa notebooks with these discs! :)

    @dowdyism – you know you want to. :) I always recommend the starter kit they have, its only $40 AND it comes with a $40 gift card:

    If you like it, you can buy more, if you hate it, the gift card would make a nice giveaway for your blog…although I cant imagine you hating it. :)

    @Amber – Great, arent they? I wanted to order all of the colors, but I couldnt justify that right now, I don’t have enough things that I need separate notebooks for.

    have you tried the new ARC system from Staples? going to check it out tonight and see if it’s cross compatible with Circa

    @Michelle – No, I have not had a chance, Ill have to take a look. It does look similar, interesting that they stopped selling the Rolla brand stuff now too…I wonder if it is the same stuff just rebranded?

  • Kendra

    Oh wow, I can buy circa discs for $10 and then have $100 shipping because I don’t live in the states.

    C’mon Levenger, boo!

    @Kendra – I can see how that would be frustrating, I wonder if there is some huge additional cost that Levenger has to incur to set up an international shipment? If so, maybe they set the shipping price so that it intentionally discourages it? Just a guess though, I have no insight into the actual reason.
