Do you have a favorite pen or pencil that you just can’t do without? I know some of you out there do. Come on admit it. Those creative juices just don’t seem to flow without your special writing tool.
My favorite kind of pen is one I can find! Seriously, pens or really any writing gadget, seem to grow legs and run off in my house. I actually have thought that I should covertly hide a pen in a certain spot so I can be guaranteed to find one when I am searching about madly. But, guess what? I never remember to do this until the next time I am in freak out mode over a missing pen!
Some folks are gaga over the Pilot™ Hi-Tecpoint retractable rollerball pen 0.5mm pen point size.
PAUSE. Ok, seriously, didn’t that just read like we are talking about make and model of some sort of automobile! Ha, eyes glazing over yet?!
But, back to the retractable rollerball, it comes in several colors of ink. Just to suit that certain project or perhaps just your fancy.
I stumbled upon a gem of a pen recently and wanted to tell you about it.* The Bobino™ Slim Pen is slick. It is also super thin. It attaches to your notebook with a little sticker. The pen then slides off and on this cute little tab so that you will never…wait for it…lose your pen!
I was a bit skeptical at first because I have tried gimmicky looking pens before but they either had terrible ink or broke or didn’t last very long. I have been using the same Bobino™ pen (in lime green) for about 5 months now and still going strong. And, I have to fight off my kids for it because they think it is really cool. Don’t overlook just how huge of an accomplishment that is – teens are a tough sell!

I too am particular with my writing instruments – I believe that the term is “statiophile”! 🙂 Keep up the great blog Barb – its inspiring, entertaining, and sometimes the creative push that I need!
Thanks again!
