Sticky note case

Sticky notes are very useful to our daily lives to remind us our to-do-list and other concerns that we have to do at school. The importance of sticky notes urges us to consider this as a must. To organize those sticky notes on your bag, just grab a long box that’s just as big as your sticky notes to pile them properly.

As easy as that, you can now pile your sticky notes. For your customization, you can use a washi tape to cover the box and put some excitements to it.

Pens

Pens are commonly transparent and are quite too formal for a person who loves customizing educational Supplies. For transparent pens like we commonly see in the store, you can simply put names on it. Just have your colored or designed paper depending on your choice. First, determine the size of the inner tube of your pen. Cut the paper with the size you’d determined and write your name on it. Last, put cut paper inside of your pen as if it covers all its transparent parts with your name on it. Now you can have your colored pen with your name so your classmates would know who owns that beautiful things.

Glitter pens

As I said pens are commonly transparent, another way of customizing it is to glitter your pens. Just have some glue and glitter dust that you love. First, remove the nib of your pen as all you see is the pen’s tube. Mix the water and the glue. Put two tablespoons of water and two and a half tablespoons of glue. Fill the mixed glue and water inside the pen and make sure you pour it out as remaining mixture sticks to the inner part of the tube, then quickly put the glitter dust inside it so the mixture won’t dry out. After glittering all the portions of the inner part, let it dry for about one to two hours. After drying it, put the nib back and voila! You now have your pen that has a glittered body.

Washi Tape Notebook

Washi tapes don’t limit itself from just being a tape, you can use a washi tape to design your pens or pencils, and yes, you can also use a washi tape to cover up and put some spice to your notebook.
