A quiet bit of beauty for the everyday list. The Rhode Island Blue Violet notepad pairs a softly illustrated state flower with creamy warm white paper and hand-painted edges in rich, joyful color.

Rhode Island's school children voted the blue violet their state flower in 1897, well ahead of the rose and the pansy, though it took until 1968 to make it official. The bloom stands for peace and faithfulness, its calm blue echoing the state's coastline.
