Dry Erase Magnet Board from Three By Three Seattle
Posted by: | CommentsI’m a big fan of the products that come from my friends over at Three by Three Seattle, they do a great job with their innovative and stylish designs of some really great quality office products. In the past I’ve reviewed their Dry Erase Bamboo Entry Butler which I loved so much that I made it part of my Editors Choice Awards for last year, and this Magnetic Dry Erase Board is a similar product but with enough differences that it warrants taking a look at. Also, big thanks to Gwen for sending this sample over to me for review.
Post-it Notes Grip Pop-Up Dispenser
Posted by: | CommentsThis fairly innocuous looking box of Post-it Notes is part of the Post-it “grip” series that I’ve reviewed in the past they are the Post-it notes Grip Pop-up Dispenser. Back in April of last year, I took a look at one of the other items in this line, which was the desk set of Post-it flags with the grip, which I thought was really cool and useful.
Levenger 3×5 Index Cards
Posted by: | CommentsA few days ago I wrote about the new Moleskine Index Cards, and they got a lot of feedback, so I thought it would be a good time to share these 3″x5″ Levenger index cards while still had index cards on the mind. This set of index cards is from Levenger’s sampler pack, so keep in mind they have plenty of other options too including customized ones that you can get your name, contact info, or anything else printed on.
Moleskine Folio Tools: StickNotes
Posted by: | CommentsLast week we took a look at the new Moleskine Index Cards that I saw back in May at the National Stationery Show, and this week we’ve got the Moleskine version sticky notes to review. Just for the record as we go on here, they are called Moleskine StickNotes, and I didnt miss they “y” when I typed this, although it is very tempting to refer to them as sticky notes. A quick note too, the photo above still has the removable Moleskine packaging on it with their logo and product info, that is just a paper slip that comes right off.
Bamboo Dry Erase Desk Top To Do Board from Three by Three Seattle
Posted by: | CommentsLast year I had the privilege of meeting the fine folks from Three by Three Seattle at the National Stationery show and I ended up reviewing their bamboo dry erase entry butler which I also picked as one of the top office supplies for 2009. This year when I stopped by their booth at the National Stationery Show, I saw tons of new products that I’ve since been waiting to get my hands on to review. Lucky for me, I just got a nice box full of stuff from them to review, so you will be seeing some of it over the next few weeks.
Moleskine Index Cards: Professional Memo Cards
Posted by: | CommentsI first saw these Moleskine Professional Memo Cards (or simply Moleskine Index Cards is a more simple description) at the National Stationery Show earlier this year, and was recently able to get my hands on a pck of them. These are one of the many new items from Moleskine that I referred to in my last newsletter (sign up for it here if you have not already) that I’ve got lined up to review. I also decided that I should get going on my index card reviews when I recently read Brad’s nice gridded index card review over at the PenAddict the other day so I could mix it up from the usual pen and notebook reviews.
Mini Business Card File Cabinet from ThinkGeek
Posted by: | CommentsThe Mini Business Card File Cabinet from ThinkGeek.com actually made me laugh when I saw it because I thought is was such a good idea. It seems like such a simple, yet creative solution for storing business cards. I feel bad because I know this will be a pretty short review, but again, I just loved the idea and wanted to share this here with you.
Cable Organization with the Cable Monkey
Posted by: | CommentsYet another of my impulsive purchases from ThinkGeek.com was this cable organization tool called the Cable Monkey. For the most part I like to focus on “cool” office supplies, and although this one rates up there as being cool, I think it might be my first entrant in the “cute” office supplies that I’ve reviewed here.
Cyber Clean Keyboard Cleaner Putty
Posted by: | CommentsKeeping a clean keyboard can be difficult, I often find myself shaking mine out upside down, and I even keep a paintbrush in my pencil case to continually dust out between the keys. Because I have never been completely satisfied with canned air keyboard cleaner products, I kept my eye out for other solutions. I’ve seen Cyber Clean keyboard cleaner (via ThinkGeek.com for about $7-8) around for a while now so I figured I should give it a shot to see how well it works at keeping my keyboard cleaner and free from getting filled with dust and debris.
Post-it Pad Index Cards
Posted by: | CommentsA few weeks ago I was checking out my local Staples and these Post-it index cards caught my attention. I’ve never seen Post-it pads as index cards before, so I had to grab these so I could take them home and check them out. I can’t for the life of me find these on the Staples website, so if you are interested in them you can find both the small and large versions on Amazon.
Biodegradable 3 Ring Binder by Samsill
Posted by: | Comments
With Earth Day right around the corner (April 22nd) I thought it would be an appropriate time to do a review of some green office supplies. This Biodegradable 3 ring binder that the nice folks from Samsill sent over to me to check out seemed like a great place to start.
