Inspired: Chrysanthemum Asian Pencil Roll Case

Besides some cool pencil cases and school supplies, we know that fashion is another extension of your personality in the classroom. Since the some of the girls at CoolPencilCase.com see the connection, we decided to create a look based on our popular Chrysanthemum Asian Pencil Roll Case. We took the rich, dark hues of the maroon trim and found the perfect blouse, along with a creme lace short that complements the Chrysanthemum print. Since it's Fall, a bit of gold accessories go a long way, as well as the steel cap combat boot that's totally in trend right now. Just like a purse, you can match your favorite pencil cases according to your outfits at school! What do you think of this look we put together for school?

Wednesday Wonders: School Days Zipper Portfolio Case

We'll admit it. It's been a while since some of us at Cool Pencil Case have had some homework or had to sit through a history lecture, but that doesn't mean we don't have any memories of school!

Some of us were slow turtles. Our PR Coordinator, Marra, says "I still have this issue of taking forever to pack up to go. That problem kind of stemmed from middle school up until college."

That's why she chose our School Days Zipper Portfolio as our Wednesday Wonder. It's 50% folder, 25% briefcase, and 25% personality. Of course, we've got our fair share of cool pencil cases in our online store, but staying organized at school may have just gotten a little bit better.

This zipper portfolio can is available in four different designs. From scrapbook sketch themes to lifestyle designs, there's a zipper portfolio for students and artists of all ages.

This zipper portfolio doesn't include the three rings to attach notebooks or tab dividers, so it allows you to utilize all the space. Art projects would also be a great fit into these portfolio cases. Freely put slim notebooks, workbooks into it so you can easily pack up and leave once the bell rings. Maybe it's something Marra could have really used a couple months ago for her college lecture halls.

Another great thing about the School Days Zipper Portfolio Case is the handle. Everything in this is easily secured with the end-to-end zipper enclosure.

The School Days Zipper Portfolio Case is available at Cool Pencil Case for only $6.85. Check out all four designs now!

Craft Item of the Day: Gel Stick Neon Highlighters!

Whether you're an artist or a student, we all know how some highlighters can bleed through papers. It's a mess when writing notes, and even worse for craft projects (a total nightmare for thin stationery paper, right?).

Here's a great alternative the regular ink highlighters. Our Gel Stick Neon Highlighters are made of a gel tip that easily glides over pen ink and even laser ink from your printer. The gel even sticks on to glossy surfaces like magazine pages. Highlight over your notes and watch the ink stay in place. For crafters, watch the ink draw smoothly over your most delicate papers. How great!
