PLOTTER USA visits Dromgoole’s in Houston, Texas

The PLOTTER USA team embarked on an exciting journey south to visit the first official US retailer, Dromgoole’s Fine Writing Instruments, for a special one-day pop-up event. The timing couldn’t have been better, as it coincided with the launch of PLOTTER USA’s complete lineup of Leather Binder sizes across all US retailers, including Narrow and Mini 5 sizes.

Located in the heart of Houston, Dromgoole’s has been a valued PLOTTER retailer since March 2023. This one-day pop-up event was an opportunity for the PLOTTER USA team to connect personally with southern PLOTTER users and witness firsthand how they creatively incorporate PLOTTER into their daily routines.

PLOTTER fans at the event had exclusive access to event-limited items, including the Unevenly-Dyed Cordovan Leather Binder in A5 size, Color Memo Pads, and Letterpress Refills. Many PLOTTER users picked up Narrow and Mini 5 size PLOTTER Leather Binders from Dromgoole’s to commemorate the release of these two sizes!

One of the event highlights was the opportunity for Houston PLOTTER fans to add a personal touch to their binders through the Corner Hardware Attachment Customization service. The PLOTTER team was impressed by the diverse collection of PLOTTER Leather Binders that fans brought for customization, each telling its unique story.

The event closed with the “PLOTTER Your Way through Mood Boards and Vision Boards” workshop. At this workshop, participants channeled their creativity to craft thoughtful seasonal vision boards, each designed to align with their quarterly goals and aspirations. It was great seeing how each participant’s vision board uniquely depicted their charm and goals.

Although the event only spanned one day, it left a lasting impression on both the PLOTTER USA team and the many Texan PLOTTER users who attended. The enthusiasm and creative applications demonstrated by PLOTTER users continue to inspire the PLOTTER USA team to experiment with their own PLOTTER systems.
