Oh, I do love new pens! If you ever watch my Instastories, you’ll have caught glimpses of my desk where I have two jam-packed (truly, I can’t fit any more in) pen pots. Then there are the pens in my writing bureau drawer. Then there are the pens in my pretty spotty pencil case. Then there are the pens in the kitchen drawer that can be grabbed easily. Then there are the pens still in packs as I don’t have anywhere for them….yet! I do love a new pen, thanks uni-ball!
