i know what you mean! i've cut back in the past few years but in high school and college, boy oh boy, did i have a lot of pens!
ReplyDeleteWow, I didn't realize how bad my addiction was, until I saw the first photo, and my eyes got very big and well...I want all those pretty markers!
ReplyDeleteI adore your monogram! Hmmm... What a great way to use my old and bring out the new. (I have about four boxes of colored pencils waiting for the day I let myself introduce them to Mr. Sharpener.)
ReplyDeleteHow fun is that r!? My mother has a thing for pens - always has. We always had extra pens in our house growing up because she always brought them home.
ReplyDeleteHa! Does this mean we can all come out of the closet? I started collecting tilt pens years ago and I have over 200. I love the "r" art.
ReplyDeletelove that first picture!
ReplyDeletei have a love for pens as well, especially sharpies. i love the rainbow of sharpies the most.
I have a feeling that the reason I often stall out of inspiration for writing at the computer is the inherent association of creativity with the marvelous tactile pleasure of writing with a pencil or pen. I'm also very particular about my implements... When the BackToSchool stuff comes out every year, I start to drool wondering what new supply goodies await!
ReplyDeleteSharpies are my favorite writing utensil. Doesn't matter if they are super fat or ultra fine, I love them all. The post came up in my reader today and it is very timely. She makes some great art out of these materials: http://indiefixx.com/2009/10/21/wednesday-indie-artist-fixx-with-jennifer-maestre/
ReplyDeleteEnjoy! =]
Cute addiction. ;) My husband recently bought a rainbow set of ultra fine Sharpies, and I secretly covet them.
ReplyDeleteFinally-someone else who feels the same way about pens and markers and pencils! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI love love drawing tools - any shape size or color! I like that 'r' made out of pencils a LOT.
ReplyDeleteMaybe this is an addiction that I need to pick up. I can never find a pencil at my house when I need it. Or a pen that writes WELL. drives me crazy. Or scissors in whatever room I'm in when I need them. Maybe I'll develop a scissors addiction. They come in so many yummy colors these days.
ReplyDeleteIt makes me glad I'm not the only one who "collects" pens, pencils, markers, highlighters, dryerase markers, etc., etc.
ReplyDeletei asked my husband to buy me a couple of mechanical pencils today and her came home with these boring grey, clear things!? ugh! blah! doesn't call to me at all! i didn't say anything but there is more to the pencil then using it to write! love your shadow box! that is cool!
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness- we are writing instrument soul sisters!
ReplyDeletei love these photos. i have a pen collection, too. and sharpies!
ReplyDeleteWhat great photos and what a great addiction. I love it.
ReplyDeleteI love the R made with pencils! Did you make that?
