The Pink Mackerel dot journal by Tekukor is an excellent journal in the budget range. Stick to your pens and markers, avoid watercolour and wet ink pens, and don’t go over your work too often and you should get by without ghosting and bleeding. The journal is well-constructed, and it is just about impossible to find out any real information about the company. I’m not a fan of the cover design and they only have it available in this turquoise floral and a pink floral. I’m using mine as my swatch journal.
My in-depth review video includes information about the company, a discussion about packaging and the company’s environmental record, and reviews the construction of the journal, the quality of the paper, and includes a pen test of a full range of pens and watercolour paints. You can see the Takeo company’s environmental policy here. See my pen test page for an explanation of each test.
