Sharpies are my writing implement of choice. I thought it was brilliant when they came out with the retractable Sharpies. I also like the Mini Sharpies.
I use the Ultrafine Sharpies for writing my day to day notes. I remember standing in the middle of Wegmans with the Ultrafine Sharpie cap in my mouth scratching out "egg noodles" wishing they made them retractable too.
A few weeks later I am watching TV and there is the pen I dreamed of being hawked by David Beckham. A Retractable Ultrafine!
But guess what? I went to Sharpie's website to check them out and found something even better. PERSONALIZED SHARPIES! How cool is that?
Here are a few I made. Dreamy.
where do you find this stuff??? i love your cool little finds!
ReplyDeleteI, too, love Sharpies. Most of all I love how they smell.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to have to buy a few with my name on them.
I heart Sharpies too. Fav. ink color is definitely black. You?
ReplyDeleteI definitely use black the most. But I love all the colors too!
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty sure personalized sharpies would make the greatest wedding favors ever--thanks for posting this!
ReplyDeleteI thought I was alone in my sharpie obsession. I have the colourful array of sharpie mini's. People at work think I'm crazy but I just feel like adding colour to my workplace. I do however wish they were the fine tip kind but then again those ones always dry out on me.
ReplyDeleteVisions of retractable mini are spinning through my head... that would be heavenly.
im also a daily sharpie user!! nice to hear about a fellow ultrafine sharpie daily user. ;)
ReplyDeleteLOVE the personalized sharpies! thanks for the update!!
that's so fun!
ReplyDeletelove, love, love, love
ReplyDeletenow I might actually get a sharpie that my students CAN'T steal because my name will be on it!!
RAD!
i love sharpies, but i especially heart the ultrafine tips. i'll have to make a trip to the office supply store to look for the retractable ultrafine version!
ReplyDeleteuh-oh...are they available in all the colors? OH MAN! I need one!
ReplyDeleteThat is my favorite pen too. I have been wanting those personalized ones for years!
ReplyDeleteI love sharpies too...but I love post-its even more :)
ReplyDeleteI have a question for you I hope you can help me answer. I've wanted to paint one of my rooms puple, but I still haven't found the right purple. I was browsing through you pages and I fell in love with the purple you have in your purple bedroom!!!! Could you please :D tell me what the name of that color is, and also what brand it is??? I would really appreciate it!
I guess I should also say that I visit your page very often :D Oscar is sooo cute :D
Have a great weekend!
I LOOOOOOOOVE sharpies. Great find. Also, I wanted to ask. What programs do you use to design your banners? I'm looking to get creative and spice up my blog.
ReplyDeleteok, it's sunday and my brain must be on a weekend trip somewhere, because I forgot that you probably don't understand Swedish so I should probably leave you an email address instead of my website..ooops!
ReplyDeleteSo if you have time/want to answer my purple-question, my email is v374274(at)hotmail.com

lucky - I totally stumbled upon these!
ReplyDeleteVeronica - finding the name of the paint is going to take some searching. I can tell you that the brand is Sherwin Williams and they can match the color of just about anything.
Nicole - I use Adobe Illustrator to create my characters and then I combine them with photos in Adobe Photoshop. I design my characters from scratch, there isn't a program for creating them.
