Last night I ran out to Staples to grab one thing. One THING! All I needed was a lanyard for a homemaking project I’m working on (coming soon!). While I wandered the aisles of Staples, out of the corner of my eye I saw the unmistakable aqua colored display.
Be still my heart!
I tried to withhold my excitement, but I couldn’t resist. I’m not exaggerating when I tell you that I was “Oooh-ing and Aweee-ing” when I walked by all of the products.
I grabbed a binder and assortment of sticky notes and labels. I exhibited a great amount of self-control when I saw the journals, notebooks and paper. I grabbed one journal. Pretty office supplies just make me want to be at my desk, even at 2 am when I’m knocking out a project for a client – being surrounded by simple, yet pretty binders, notebooks and paper just seems to make it more tolerable!
These are just a few of the beautiful new products:
Some people have closets full of beautiful clothes and shoes, some love purses … me? I’m crushing on some office supplies!
Who wouldn’t love these beautiful sticky notes that fit right in your binder or planner?
How wonderfully practical is the filler paper with perforated task list?
A beautiful journal? Yes please!
How brilliant are these ElastiNote® Tags for labeling your cords?
It’s hard to say which product was my favorite, because the all have very practical uses. The one product that I was smitten over was the Stack+Fit accessories, which I did not purchase, but I would LOVE to have grace my desk! You can check them out on the Staples website by clicking the image below.
So there you have it – a post all about office supplies! You can see that I have a serious problem here, can’t you?
* This is NOT a sponsored post I just love office supplies! All opinions are my own. Avery, Staples or Martha Stewart are more than welcome to contact me if they would like me to do an official review… I sure would LOVE that Stack + Fit set! *

So much fun – I love the shape of those little sticky notes!
Aren’t those sticky’s just perfect? I love them too! They have so many great and practical stickers too – chalkboard stickers – jar labels for the kitchen, oh my!
I DID NOT need to know this. No. I didn’t….
Averting my eyes and locking up my keys so I can’t run out and get some myself.
Glad I’m not the only office supply junkie around.
Michelle – I kid you not when I saw the display I almost ran the other way – I should have known better – I was really surprised at the variety too! Oh my! There goes my spending money for the week…or two!
In case there is any doubt about her genuine obsess….I mean passion for office supplies, let me reassure you. She is my sister and I, not kidding, received a call from her FROM THE STORE to tell me about this product line. She really does love all things office {and I’m pretty sure it’s hereditary.}

Now that I’ve seen pictures of the items she told me about, I may have to go to Staples myself. Thanks a lot Donna
Why did you have to have all those pretty pictures? I am fighting the urge to run out to Staples now!
Oh Sherrill, just call me I’ll go with you!!! They are really lovely products and I think if your desk should be pretty!
I ran into Staples to get one thing and the same thing happened to me!
It was like having a “Target-moment” at Staples… walking out spending $50 ! LOL! I’m resisting the urge to go back and see what else I can find.
Trying no to go back myself
Oh my goodness! Love those sticky notes! Heading to Staples Monday
