OKMH - August Edition! Office Supplies

I have been waiting for this month...
It's OKMH August. The theme?
The Kitchen Girls
OFFICE SUPPLIES!

Truth time: I love office supplies. When I was little, my favorite night was the day after coming home with school supplies when I got to rip open packages and pack up my binder and backpack for the one clean, organized day of my school year: the FIRST DAY. Best day. I love sticky notes. I love different colors of pens. Colored Tabs? Want. Highlights? Love. Sharpie rainbows? NEED. 

Now that I'm an adult and actually need to use mountains of sticky notes and rivers of ink just to keep my cool, the allure of new supplies has not decreased. 
Did I finally run out of plain yellow sticky notes? Hurray! That means I finally have a good excuse to break into this neon orange pack. Ooo! 
Do I have to read a journal article and take notes? I have three highlighters that each mean something different - time to sit back and absorb (and highlight in perfectly neat boxes).
Do I need to organize study files? Pass over the binders and dividers. I have collating to do!!

Okay, while some of those office tasks are slightly exhagerated (I DO love a good hyperbole), I really do love office supplies. So obviously I was excitd by this month's theme. Hey, let's be honest - if I can find anything that keeps me excited about my office job, I should run at it full-speed, right?

This month I received from Kirsten - and it was a sa-WEET haul!
Desk Fluff

Includes: coloring book and new crayons (seriously), sassy napkins and mitt supplies, note pad and binder clips, and (my favorite) a huge pile of rainbow pens and sharpies, and some AWESOME sticky notes!!









Seriously and genuinely excited about these crayons. To use in THIS COLORING BOOK. I love coloring books. Shush - this will be great stress relief!

These sticky notes will come in very handy. I shall write seriously mustache'd notes with my serious and business-like stick-note tools. 

These desk fluffers (except for the crayons and coloring book) have already made it into my daily work. The sticky-notes stay safely in my desk drawer so I can look at them longingly but never use because then I might run out (*coughCLOSETHOARDERcough*).

Don't forget to check out the other "Kitchen Gals" (because my hubs can't be bothered to remember the whole group name ;-))
I sent to Mads at La Petite Pancake.
Mads sent to Kat at Tenaciously Yours
Kat  sent to Allison at Decadent Philistines Save the World
Allison sent to Megan at Wanna Be a Country Cleaver
Megan sent to Jeanne at Inside NanaBread's Head
Jeanne sent to Kirsten at Comfortably Domestic

 
What's your favorite part of a new school year? Or of your office?

  1. Ooo! I need mustache post-its now! Your post cracked me up, because I sent my box to Kirsten this month and it included Sharpies and post-it notes AND I almost sent her the same big-a$$ box of Crayons she sent you. Too funny. Great minds and all. I had to ditch the Crayons in favor of other treats (wouldn't fit) but it serves as proof that we're collectively starting to merge into one person.

  2. My favorite part of the new school year is definitely the part of getting it all organized. Actually, the organization part kind of gives me a monster headache, but I do love the look of everything with I've sufficiently post-it flagged it into organization.

    Once I saw the SUPER HUGE box of crayons, I couldn't pass it up. I looked everywhere for a Dr. Who coloring book, but apparently they don't make one. Jerks. I guess we'll have to settle for Discovery Kids, instead. Still nerdy, right?

  4. Excellent. Fun and useful! Maybe they can throw in a few ink cartridges in the mix, in case you'll have to need one for your documentations; the usual drill.

  7. It pleases me to find other people that love office supplies as much as I do. There is just something about having the equipment and supplies to get any project done in the office. I have been getting most of my supplies from my uncle who runs a large paper business, but for as much as I go through supplies, I want to find an online supplier. Does anyone have any recommendations for good office supply dealers?
