I still haven’t found the perfect pencil case to solve my problem from the other day. Although, this weekend the Avon lady left me something I’ll use until I do find a pencil case I’m happy with. What’s great about this make-up bag is that when you open it you can see through the gauze-type fabric so you can locate the item you’re after quickly.

I threw in all the pens I had been keeping in the old pencil case, but left the other side for my watercolour pencils. I’ve been thinking of using my next journal as a mixed visual and hand written one. I have a lovely fat blank unlined book just perfect for that sitting here.

Temporary Pencil Case Solution

A few weeks ago my favourite little purple suede pencil case broke, well at least the zip did. I was still trying to use it to carry my assorted pens, pencils, sharpeners, erasers and whatevers in, but I finally gave up about a week ago. Instead I carried the current favourite pen and one other; a small red ink pen with novelty cover. Wouldn’t you know it, the pen ran out of ink. Argh! I had to use this short pen with the red ink. I was most annoyed. I felt reluctant to buy another pen because I have so many already, but now I’m on the look out for the perfect pencil case.

The one in the photo has served me well for the last five or more years. I’d love another just like it, but the place I purchased this one from no longer has them. I can’t find any brand name or similar on the old one. It’s most likely worn off if it was there, anyway. If you know where I can find one that looks anything like this one, please let me know in the comments section below. If you sell these and you’d like to give me one, I’d love you forever and would blog about it right here. Or was that too cheeky?

What about you? What do you use to carry your stationary supplies in? I’d love to see photos, too, so don’t be shy. Post links to photos on blogs or wherever they might be. Please leave any comments and links in the section below.
