What was your favorite school supply? Mine were:
Do people use non-electric pencil sharpeners anymore? I mean, when they're not typing on a computer, texting, etc?
I have two at home: one for my pencils, and one for my eyeliner.
Ooh, I want a pencil tray with a roll-top cover.
I use a hand pencil sharpener for my fabric marking pencils, because I can control the sharpness better. Also for eyeliner.
Yes. Public school, man. I'm surprised we don't still use ditto machines.
God, I miss that smell.
pen with multi-colored ink
The big fat 4-colored ballpoint pen with the 4 separate clicky-things on the end? I loved those. My very favorite school supply, though, was the compass.
God, I miss that smell.
YES!!!
I love the smell of a hand crank pencil sharpener. I have my great-grandmother's hand crank pencil sharpener. ALL metal. Nary a plastic part. You can take the cover and bang the shit out of it against the garbadge can when it gets really full and cram packed and no dents or breakage.

I had no idea I loved my pencil sharpener this much.

I have a little one for my pencil lipstick.

Oh my gosh, yes! My favorite! So great for a fidgety kid.
