Is there a blogger, organizer, or in my case a want to be organizer out there who doesn't love office supplies? I mean looooove office supplies. Please, tell me that I am not alone! I'm not talking about anything electronic. I'm talking about getting back to the basics of office supplies.
Remember the good ol' four color Bic pen? The one that has red, blue, black, and green all in one...just click down on the color of your choice? I had one of those back in my school days and thought it was the coolest pen ever. Still do! I came across it the other day in all my "crafting supplies" and couldn't resist trying it out. Needless to say it was too old to work anymore.
Back when The Container Store was a huge fad (everyone at school bought plastic containers and used paint pens to label them with bubble letters and flowers...ignore the age implications), I was in heaven. I still have a thing for drawer organizers, stationary, bright colorful papers, scrapbooking gadgets, etc....My work office is full of Mickey Mouse office organizers, where my at home office is full of everything I can get my hands on. My hubs would say that I have a severe problem, but we will not mention all of his sports stuff.
Here are a few of my favorite things, mind you this list is small compared to what I have or want.
Paper clips of all shapes and sizes
Sharpies...fine, medium,fat...Sharpies Rock!
Post it notes in cool colors, shapes and sizes
Dry erase magnet board, with the cute magnets of course!
Calendars...the old-fashioned, write-on-it calendars.
Note books, notepads..all shapes and sizes
I can spend a very long time browsing the aisles in an office supply store, crafting aisles with paper, even the office supply aisle at Target. Don't get me wrong I love shoes, clothes etc..but I have a ton of office supplies and scrapbooking supplies and just keep buying!
What about you? Do you have the same addiction? What are your favorites? Any must-have suggestions?
With love,
"B"
