Does anyone remember those tins of pencils with pictures of mountains on the front?

[Eniddo]

My friend had one at school and I was always really envious

anyway I want to get some for dd2 for xmas

who made them???

or where can I buy a lovely big tin of pencils for her?

ok marina I googled stabilo and now look whats happened collapses in ecstasy of Stationary Porn

or stationery

look I am tired and a bit drunk

I've got those stabilo ones too.

botbot!

I also have no Divine Right to gorgeous pens

but it is guilty secret

Oh, God, now I have to admit ownership to a complete set of Woodies too
They stain btw, as they are wax-based. Their sharpenings need to go straight in the bin and you must not let dd3 anywhere near them
They are also beautiful to use and work with

I was actually referring to Marina's triangular Stabilo ones link, but guess what? I've got the Woody ones too. They are amazing - like really brightly coloured pastels in a pencil. Best of the lot.

these aren't to pricy

oh no staining is bad

[starts to shake recalling this evenings marathon clean up of dd2's room]

my friend's kids have a pack of these they are really mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I still have this box of 40 pencils.

I still have mine from childhood, and my six year old loves them. She thought the water thing was magic!

caran D'ache. fab pencils. I use coloured pencils a lot (artist)
