I love stationery(ies)

I'm someone who LOVES stationery. I always find it a great pleasure to look and test out new stationeries...

Because I hardly do much drawings nor even doodling. I keep to the standard Blues and Blacks. But my favorite pen all these years have been the Pilot G2. I use it all the time. Even in office! And that's quite a waste especially since we are provided with stationery but I don't use those. I hate those ball kind of pens.... I MUST MUST use gel inks.. and G2 is the only one that I've touched for the last few years.

But Pilot are very safe and boring, I love those nice, cutsey, colorful pens too. Though I hardly buy (because I can hardly draw nor doodle) but I still like to look at it. =)

And I just came across a new stationery online.... Have you heard of "Popcorn pens"? And I've fallen for it. It's so cute!

The Popcorn pens. Wet ink in the barrel, once it's dried on high heat, then it creates all sorts of interesting textures!!! See! So cute and nice right?! The ink will POP up hence the name. Of course I know it's because the drawing is nice hence it looks so good la. If it was me, I may not get that kind of effect since I really dislike drawing. =/I found a video online giving more details on how to use this Pop corn pen.... here!

Another I came across is the Color Splitz pen... This is similar to the "magic pen" I've used as a kid where the color changes if the white/transparent ink is colored over it. But, with some difference. Instead of running another color over it, the Color Splitz pens comes with 2 colors in the nip. So at different angles, the colors runs differently and is able to get both shades out.

Again, depending on the level of your drawling and doodling skills, will be able to get different effects and pictures! Which I think, I will not be able to put it to use like that. =( So, if you are interested, do check here to get yourself a set before the spree closes! I'm not earning any commission or anything from this, I just like it very much and thought of sharing.

I'm still thinking if I should get a set because when I told hubby, he said I won't use wan lor. Will buy and keep keep keep. And honestly, I think he is right lor. =( Plus the fact that still have to use heat on it. I find it very troublesome la. But!! I am considering the Color Splitz pens! That, no need to use heat and can just use like that ma. =P
