I want garden themed stationary

by Tricia

Are you an office supply addict? I have all kinds of sticky notes like post it’s, and assortment of pens and my beloved sharpies. I use the sharpies to write on those wooden garden marker sticks when I plant new seedlings or even in the trays when I’m growing them in the spring. The writing doesn’t fade off very easily with all the humidity because sharpies are permanent markers.

I also write down any new plants that I plant in my garden beds. I usually do this on lined paper or yellow notepads. I guess I just love office supplies. My desk is full of stuff that I use all the time. Now I’m trying to use this blog to keep track of new plants that I’ve placed around the garden and their progress. It’s not working out all that well though as I still find myself writing something on one type of piece of paper or another each day.

I still haven’t decided on what type of designer personal checks I’m going to get yet either. As I said in an earlier post I want to get checks with some kind of garden theme as a background, perhaps a rose background, but which ever kind I decide on my plan is to buy cheap checks because I don’t use checks very often so I don’t feel that I need to spend too much on them. Still I’d like them to be personal.

I don’t think I’ve ever said on this site that I used to keep reptiles, well I still do – two box turtles. Back when I had a lot of reptiles – many lizards I used to go to reptile shows and I’d buy writing pads with different reptiles designs on them. I bought so many back then that I still have a few. I was even thinking of trying to find some checks that had a reptile on them. I don’t think I ever found any though. LOL

So tell me – are you hooked on office supplies too? Do you have pads of papers or pens stored in several rooms in your house?

    I just love stationery, planners and colorful pens. I just can’t help but shop some of those whenever I’m out for shopping. Most of my pens are neon colored ones but my favorite is pink sign pen, it’s just too girly. I guess undoubtedly, that makes me an office supplies addict. 🙂
