My cousin recently posted a photo of her calendar and collection of colored pens.  I thought it was all very cute, so I responded by collecting my own writing materials and taking a photo of that too.  To my surprise, I had more than I thought I did – AND I discovered that maybe, just maybe, I might have a little color obsession going on…

Honestly, these are just my essentials that I use everyday!

I’ve been using colored pens since college. They help me organize my thoughts AND they help me recall information that I’ve written in specific colors.

And yes, I do love Post-Its.

And yes, I do love notebooks, too.

Different colors. Different designs. All pretty.

Some people collect shoes and purses.  I do notebooks and journals.  That’s why it’s hard for me to stay away from the stationary/office/school supplies section at Target. (or any store). I almost always leave with at least one new notebook – and restock on Post-Its, you know, while I was already there anyway.

Oh.  Then my girls saw what I was doing (waking a picture of my stuff) and they wanted to do it too.

I think I see a pattern here…

What do you think? Could this color obsession be hereditary?

I actually wouldn’t be surprised if it is.

If you have a color obsession like me, chances are, you like pretty things too! Here’s a few that I bet you’ll love!
