pink pencil shavings

You probably shouldn't sharpen pencils over your neat, clean notepad, right? They were so pretty that I just couldn't resist taking their picture.

Thank you. I thought they were so peaceful and far too pretty to go straight into the bin :)

Gorgeous. When we were little we loved coloured pencil shavings so much we collected them in glass jars. I know.

Cute! I remember as a kid I used to try and make the sharpenings as long and curly as possible ten use them to make collages of hedgehogs and furry bears - how geeky was I?!
