Oh, Sharpie How Do I Love Thee….

by Tanna Clark

in Office Solutions

I admittedly have an obsession with office supplies. When the beginning of the school year rolls around and I have to go school supply shopping I am in a complete state of euphoria. That really is one of my favorite times of the year.

My favorites– Pen and Paper. Give me a good pen and a pad of paper and I’m set. I love all things techie too but I have to have a paper calendar and I even color code it.

So when I come across a set of markers like this, I get that warm and fuzzy feeling. I actually have this set in my arsenal of organizing tools. They are great for labeling! Sharpie has many different types of markers and pens too! Did you know they even have paint markers and you can personalize your own Sharpie? I’m thinking they would make a great little gift to give clients.

You know what’s even better than a pack of shiny new Sharpie’s? A BLOG about Sharpie’s! It’s a really fun read. They feature various artists who primarily use Sharpie’s and have “Sharpie sightings”. Go check it out. You’ll find out that office supplies are way cooler than you thought!

There is nothing wrong with having an obsession with office supplies…at least I hope not. ;)

Shucks, it sure is nice to see so many people with a Sharpie “thang.” I know I work for Sharpie but Sharpies really do rock! Thanks for blogging about us!

Awww, my mom’s very first blog comment, and she’s calling me a GEEK! How sweet. Yes mom, there are more of us out there and I bet there are plenty geekier than me.

I had to chuckle when I started reading this. And then my husband asked what I was giggling about. And as I started to read this post, he thought I had written it! LOL Tanna, we may be kindred spirits. ~J
