Owl Simple Haul: Art&Craft Supplies

Hello there, my dear reader! How have you been this fine summer week?

I keep spending money! Sounds good, doesn’t it? Last week I decided to go on craft shopping and buy things that aren’t usually on my TO BUY craft list. I can’t say I failed, as I bought items of my frequent use and items that I have never bought before. Let’s see how it will go.

I’d love to share with you my new art supplies!

1. BASIC GREY Persimmon 6×6″ Pad

Do you see these birds? See them? Well, they are the reason I bought this set at all. I love these birds! I want to make so much with them that I don’t even know where to start. Tags, Project Life cards, mail art cuts – anything!

Owl Simple Tips: Ephemera – It’s Closer Than You Think

Hello, my dear reader!

Some time ago I have won an ephemera giveaway. And I must say it was awesome! my inner stationery monster was so delighted. But then a question arose – where can I get such treasures myself? What can I use as little inserts in my snail mail, as little gifts and tags and so much more?

Hello there, dear reader!

I have recently realised that I am absolutely addicted to all things mail and stationery. Okay, a lie, I knew it long ago. But I never thought I’ll be so fond of various gel pens! I just keep buying them, I already have a set of pastel gel pens that have a fruit smell. So yesterday I couldn’t pass by and bought a small set of new gel pens. There is nothing special about them, but I do like the juicy colour they give.

Also I finally bought a set of 4 washi tapes that I found in our central bookshop. It’s from HEYDRA and it’s awesome! I do recomment their washi tapes. They often come in 4, and this pack costs only about 2$ here. Though it’s not very long, maybe 4-5 meters, but it’s good and interesting to touch. I haveone or two more packs of washi tapes from HEYDRA. I hope they release more and the central bookshop restocks them. That reminds me that they have a set of 3 colourful lace washi tapes…

POSTCARDS. Who doesn’t love postcards. I don’t even send as much as I buy them 😀 I am a postcrosser, I need postcards – this is my excuse. I got a variety of them, from tourist ones to artsy ones. I do love a good postcard!

And what did you buy to treat your inner stationery monster?
