Have you ever wondered about the Midori “Pickable” Sticky Note packs ($6.75 each)? They include three different paper stocks: white paper with a colored edging, kraft paper and a translucent colored paper stock. All three papers are in one booklet giving the users the option to choose or “pick” what sticky note to use on the fly instead of carrying three separate pads.

The packaging includes little drawings on the front showing how each section opens completely to easily remove a sticky note as needed and the back illustration includes text describing the paper: Fine Paper, Kraft Paper, and Tracing Paper. The text below the illustration indicates the number of sheets of each paper: 30 sheets of the Fine Paper, and 20 sheets each of Kraft and Tracing Paper.
In writing tests, the Fine Paper worked with all the different types of pens and pencil equally well. For a sticky note, I’d give the Fine Paper notes a 10 out of 10 as far as sticky notes go. Lovely!
The Kraft Paper worked best with felt tip, gel pens, rollerballs and pencils. The fountain pen ink beads up as did the Faber-Castell PITT brush ink and the water soluble Pentel Brush pens. I really like the look and feel of the kraft notes but the pens that work well with it is a bit limited and should be used with a bit of caution.
I was most excited to try the Tracing Paper sticky note because its translucent so it could be used decoratively or to add notes while still being able to see what is underneath but it is definitely a coated paper that is not conducive to any water-based inks. Even the Faber-Castell PITT brush, which is supposed to be waterproof, beaded up on the paper. Gel pens, felt tips, pencils and ball point all work fine and I suspect that a Sharpie would also work. This limited pen usefulness could be a sticking point (no pun intended) for some people but the idea of having a translucent sticky note makes me willing to endure its pen limitations in order to have see-through sticky notes in my tools.
The sets of sticky notes available currently looks like Midori replaced the tracing paper option in the set with a colored paper. The Natural set includes an ivory stock instead of tracing paper which might be a better option overall. The Warm set includes a lavender paper and the Cool set has a light blue paper in addition to the white Fine paper with colored edge and Kraft Paper options. I think, despite enjoying the concept of the translucent paper, I would probably prefer to have the newer sets with the colored papers.

Paper used for notepads and sticky notes is typically lightweight and designed to easily jot down quick notes, reminders, and messages. It should also be able to withstand frequent handling and adhesive applications. For notepads, thicker paper stock is typically used to provide a sturdier writing surface, while sticky notes require a special adhesive that can be easily repositioned without damaging the paper or leaving residue.
The durability of paper is also a key factor in the effectiveness of notepads and sticky notes. Our sticky notes is made from sturdy kraft paper to withstand daily use without the edges tearing or curling. This ensures that your notes remain intact and clear even with frequent handling and movement.
In addition to durability, the paper used for notepads and sticky notes should be suitable for a variety of writing instruments. Our vellum note-taking set is compatible with pens, pencils, and markers, giving you the freedom to choose your favorite writing instrument without worrying about paper smudging or color bleeding.
