Dd1 needs a seriously cool pencil case. These things matter when you're 13. Please help!

Just that, really. From my POV her old ones seem perfectly functional, but apparently they just won't cut it anymore.

Retro is good, cute is good (Hello Kitty v. popular) and ideally something which not everybody else will have, which rules out Paperchase and Woolies.

Thanks!

Try museum gift shops - online or in person. Or art supply stores.

too boring?

what about miffy, rainbow, betty boop, sesame street, care bears, my little pony etc?

Thanks for ideas!

Apparently she has now found the website of her dreams.

Hmm. She better be very very nice to me.

Paperchase have lovely ones. Even I like them and I'm erm, a lot older than 14.

sorry, 13!

makes me laugh when I think of the fluffy ones we used to have!

This is cool but prob not girlie enough! GOod for the eco credentials though...
