Pen Obsession

So…confession time: I am slightly obsessed with pens, if you tell me the brand of a pen I will more then likely have an opinion on how it writes. My favorite pen of all time is Le Pen, but I noticed that Le Pen is frequently mentioned in blog posts plus I have mentioned them a few times already; so I thought I would share with you my second favorite pen, Sharpie Fine Point Pens. I’m partial to pens that have somewhat of a very fine marker feel to them and write very smooth, both the Sharpie Fine Point Pen and Le Pen fit this criteria. I am also overly organized and have a color code system for when I write things in my planner {hot pink = social, light pink = meetings, blue = appointments, and green = blog related things} so…that being said, a set of pens that come in different colors is a must! Plus writing things down in different colors makes your planner more exciting! I absolutely love Sharpie Fine Point Pens! They are great to use when writing thank you notes {if you live in the South thank you notes are a must}, scheduling things in your planner, Sharpie pens are even great to use for drawing. If you are looking for a new pen to try you should definitely try out the Sharpie Fine Point Pens, you will love them!

    I'm kind of a pen-addict too lol. The smoother I can write with one the better. I will definitely try this one out :)

    I too am obsessed with pens and have about 5 floating down at the bottom of my purse. When at a restaurant signing my card slip, if the pen writes well, I'll leave an extra $5 tip and take the pen...#ashamed

    I'm having a giveaway for us Southern girls...come check it out :)

    I love how you made your own note cards, really great idea. I normally have a collection of pens from places I've been, I typically take them from the hotels haha!

      I love the idea of collecting pens from different places you've been to! Hotel pens are pretty great, I have been guilty of taking some hotel pens as well.

    I too am a bit obsessed with ALL writing utensils. I love these Sharpie pens! :) I have one which I use even for taking notes in class just because I love the way they write. Cool pens make lecture a bit less strenuous :)
