Pink Ink Blog

I cannot believe I am just now finding about about Spoon Sisters!! OMG, I feel like a part of me would have been totally different – would I have know about this before the age of 24. I imagine I’d have been a better gift giver at the very least.

Get ready for pages and pages of #PinkPicks from these ladies – but for today – something that even I can appreciate.  Dog bone and heart shaped paper clips. I don’t think anything more needs to be said…

Now, let me start this blog out with the fact that I am NOT a UF Gator fan.  I tolerate them, because my significant other tends to be obsessed. Anyway, regardless of the subject matter these thank you cards are too cute to not share.

They remind me of when I was in a ceramics class in college, I created a pencil holder that had 3D triangles all over it and I had glazed the whole thing purple (I don’t think they had pink glaze). My teach came over and goffed at the fact that I glazed the whole piece ONE color, until she turned the piece to see the one triangle I glazed green.  It was genius after that.

Get these at Swoozies – one of my fave places on the web.  I can’t help by smile to look at their color scheme.

So, when I first saw this product I thought of all the obscenities and “tell me what you really think” type messages that I could stamp on different papers that cross my desk – then realized its real purpose was more for crafting. I like my idea better. However, still cool none the less.

“You can use this to put monograms on just about anything made of paper, fabric, wood, etc. It is possible spacing words so you can make simple sentence. Great for diary decorating, card making, scrap booking, arts and crafts or just for fun.”

Get yours at Etsy.com

This #PinkPick is not exactly something I might use (due to my organizational OCD), but this non-planner from Fred Flare is outstanding.

“This new journal randomly intersperses monthly overviews with note and idea pages so you can have order without all those constrictions! Whimsical art & 12 undated months means you can begin this planner at anytime! Printed on recycled paper with soy-based ink.”

Actually, just looking at this planner is making me a bit ill and anxious…

This cute notepads from Swoozies (my new fave site – sooo cute) helps plan out meals with style.  I try to plan out my meals a week in advance in order to avoid the lazy nights (like last night) where me and my boyfriend resort to pizza.

That’s all I have for now. Short, Sweet.

If you know me well, which many of you don’t, you’d know I am obsessed with penguins.  Not as crazy as I am about pink, but it takes second place.

This #PinkPick is not exactly office supplies – but I think it works.  Plus, it’s my blog and I make the rules. So check this awesome product out from William-Sonoma (or at least it’s sold at William Sonoma).

“This eco-friendly soda charger quickly transforms ordinary tap water into fresh sparkling water. It’s fun and easy to use: Simply fill the reusable glass carafe with water, insert it into the Penguin and press the carbonating “beak. When depleted, the carbonator cartridges can be easily returned to Soda-Club USA for refilling.”

But really…who did say clipboards had to be brown, boring?

I found this amazing site called Organize.com that will probably house a TON of my future #PinkPicks.

Today, I want to showcase its “momAgenda® Clipboard and Pad Set – Large” that is so cute, I could die. I love the vintage, paisley-esque motif and the mismatch notepad that is so non-coordinating, it just goes.

Love it, love it, love.  Now to figure out how to make a clipboard fit in with my daily work…

I thought this looked pretty cool, as with most #PinkPicks, I have not tried this…but I very well might.

It is a rollerball pen (I usually go with gel), but it allows you to change up the colors — Which I love. Too bad it isn’t like those old school pens where you just click a button for a new color.  The changing I would go through seems like it would be a little involved. My mood changes by the minute.

The refills come in purple, light blue, green, pumpkin, and (of course) pink.

Check it out at one of my favorite sites/stores, Franklin Covey — However I am angry at them for not carrying the Cutaway Daily Notes Pages in my Covey design (Kaleidoscope).

One of my followers on Twitter (@gorgeousoffice) told me about these things — I can’t believe I never knew…

This is a sticky note (does anyone know if I am actually allowed to say “Post-It-Note?) that let’s you pick how big you want it to be.  It completely replaces having a million sizes of notes, although I do like the laughs I get when I am on the phone with a reporter and have a series of 5 stickies in front of me because one was just not enough.

The best part about these is that they do come in pink, however, not quite my shade.

Enjoy this wonderful invention at http://www.zipnotes.com.

So these better be the most amazing rubber bands ever invented — considering they are $4 a piece.  Shipping better be cheap to ($.42).  Regardless of the price, I still like them.

These are super-strong, colorful, girly rubber bands.  There’s not a whole lot more to say.  Check them out at Russel + Hazel.
