Last-minute present: DIY Pretty Pencils

Ask anyone who knows my love of office supplies, and they'll tell you about the best gift my husband ever gave me: the  red Swingline stapler that Milton pines for in the movie  Office Space. Talk about love. So you can probably figure out that I love nothing more than getting Post-Its, pens and doodads from Staples in my Christmas stocking. Some highlights from the last couple of years: [caption id="attachment_7263" align="aligncenter" width="300" caption="Stripey paper clips"] Stripey paper clips[/caption] [caption id="attachment_7264" align="aligncenter" width="300" caption="Funky erasers"] Funky erasers[/caption] [caption id="attachment_7265" align="aligncenter" width="300" caption="Padded metallic binder clips"] Padded metallic binder clips[/caption] One thing I would love to get in my stocking this year? Some gorgeous DIY Pretty Pencils made from the tutorial at Omiyage.ca. They're just simple dollar-store pencils dressed up with Japanese washi paper and Mod Podge. Nothing could be simpler!
