If you follow me on Instagram you’ll have seen that I’ve been trying to create myself a ‘desk area’. And with desks, comes stationary, so naturally I took a trip to one of my favourite places – Paperchase!
Luckily enough there’s a huge Paperchase on Tottenham Court Road, not too far from where I work, so I’m often in there buying bits and pieces. On this occasion however, I went in with a mission: buy all the pretty desk stuff.
So, a well equipped desk has to have pens, right? To start off with, I picked up a couple of cute looking ballpoint pens in a pack of two, and then I spied this multi pen above (I’m not even sure what the proper name for these is, but y’all know what I mean, we all had them as kids right?!) I couldn’t resist it – I mean what if I want to write notes in green or yellow pen? PROBLEM SOLVED.
Washi tape has been on my wishlist for a long time now, but I just hadn’t seen any I particularly liked. This one above caught my eye instantly – bright funky colours and in a variety of widths. They’re attached to a little roll inside the box, with a serrated edge on the side too which is really handy.
I couldn’t resist picking up some felt tips – I haven’t had felt tips since I was a kid, you guys! Such excitement. I’ve already used them to jazz up my blog post notes – eeee!
Lastly, these little mini post-it notes caught my eye. Pineapples are so in at the moment, and the cute packaging on these just cried out for me to buy them – so adorable!
I will have a post coming up next week about the actual desk space I’ve created, so keep an eye out for that!
this is all so cute, unfortunately i think if i bought stationary it would just sit there unused!
I’m hoping that I’ll use all of this, I’ve used a few already so fingers crossed! 🙂
I am so jealous of all this pretty stuff! I am long overdue a stationery haul ❤

Do it! It wasn’t all that expensive in fairness, think it came to just over £15 in total 🙂
