Bklover I am intrigued. You‘ve made me want these pencils, and I don‘t know why! I am lover of pens, pencils, markers, etc. why do you like these???❤️✏️ 6y

monalyisha @Bklover I have no idea. 😆😅 (But I‘ll report back after using them!) 6y

Bklover That is the best reason ever! 6y

DivineDiana Yes, report back! Please! 6y

rubyslippersreads Where do you order Goddess pencils? 😊✏️ 6y

monalyisha @rubyslippersreads ALL the pencils: https://cwpencils.com 6y

TheLibrarian @monalyisha @MirrorMask @Elma Do you know how we get each others‘ addresses? 6y

monalyisha @TheLibrarian Yep! You should‘ve gotten an email from @suvata with all of that info (in your gmail inbox). If you want me to forward it to you, I can do that, too! 6y

TheLibrarian @monalyisha Hmmm I don‘t remember getting one. If you could forward it to me that would be wonderful- carriecarter9118@gmail.com 6y

monalyisha @TheLibrarian Ah, it looks like the email on file for you doesn‘t have any numbers at the end. That must‘ve been the problem! Incoming! 6y

TheLibrarian @monalyisha Thank you - I got it! That‘s weird because I‘m super careful about typing in my new email but apparently not careful enough. 6y

rubyslippersreads @monalyisha Thank you for send me down that rabbit hole. 😄✏️❤️ 6y

Does anyone else love pencils and writing as well as reading? I love my subscription box from #cwpencils

LeahBergen Ooohhh! 😍😍 6y

wanderinglynn Yes! But I‘ve never heard of cwpencils. Will you tell me a bit more of what you get in a box? 6y

TheSpineView Yes! But I am more of a pen person and I am picky. Very fine smooth line is a must. 6y

Chrissyreadit @wanderinglynn each box is slightly different- pencils from around the world and different items related to pencils. Last box was about recycling, there were erasers from recycled materials, a pencil made from coffee grounds that was compostable, pencils from Japan made from recycled materials, etc, this month is travel. I also order from their company. Explore their website! You will def get a feel for it. 6y

RidgewayGirl That looks amazing! I‘m tempted. 6y

wanderinglynn Thanks @Chrissyreadit 😀 6y

Chrissyreadit @RidgewayGirl check it out! The box sells out, FYI, but I also order from them for gifts. I use the pencils all the time for school, but I ordered highlighting ones, and editorial one for all my teacher friends. That‘s how I started. 6y

Great books, somewhere in their journey of creation, owe thanks to a pencil! This NY Times article pays beautiful homage to the pencil factory. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/01/12/magazine/inside-one-of-americas-last-pencil-f...

Lacythebookworm Fascinating! And those photographs are stunning! Thanks for sharing 😊 7y

Conversation I had today:

Me: where is the pencil sharpener?

Office manager: the mechanical pencils? They‘re in the supply closet.

Me: No. pencil sharpener? *shows her my cute pencil*

OM: *blinks* we don‘t have one of those.

Me: Oh ok. I can buy my own. I‘m old school.

OM: *confused face because she has children my age*

Me: Thanks anyway!

👵🏾

Chelleo I‘ve seriously been considering buying a wall mounted pencil sharpener 🧐 7y

Johanna414 Sometimes I think I have the only functioning pencil sharpener in the school... I literally have teachers who send their students to the library to sharpen their pencils. So weird. 7y

WhatDeeReads @chelleo that‘s a good idea. I can‘t put holes in my walls, but I‘d consider it if I could. 7y

WhatDeeReads @Johanna414 That is weird. Maybe their concerned about them walking away? My mom‘s thing are always stolen by students. 7y

Shout out to all the people who've ever been a little weird about their writing utensils. You know who you are. Other people may not understand that it isn't just a pen or that everything is better when your pencils are sharpened and lined up in descending order. Dio understands. 🙂
@RealLifeReading

queerbookreader Itty bitty 3 year old me wouldn't use my crayons or markers until I sorted them by color and size first. My mom was really weirded out that I refused to use them until I sorted them. I have yet to grow out of that behavior 😂 8y

queerbookreader And if she sorted them for me I'd throw a fit and mess them all up so I could sort them myself!! I was so extra lmao 8y

diovival @lemonlime799 Thank you for sharing! I can totally relate. 😂 8y

andrew61 If you ever get a chance the pencil museum in Keswick, the lake district, is well worth a visit. I went years ago ☺ 8y
