Scissoring has never been more exciting than with these 6" stainless steel snippers printed with either a rose pattern or license plate graphics right on the blades. From Maped, these "Tatoo" scissors have color-coordinated padded handles, which adds to the fashion-forwardness. Just don't put them down on a license plate or a bed of roses or you may never find them. We'll pick a design because we know best, really.

The digits are your fingers, and you personally use them to keep track of everything in this compact Mead® day planner, dubbed the "Fat Planner," which never has to be recharged or turned off in class because it's spiral-bound paper inside a nice portfolio with a zipper around three sides. In assorted colors (blue, green, black, red), they measure just 6" x 5-1/2" x 1-5/8" and have a calendar, class-schedule sheets, exam records and study sheets, a 50-page notepad and storage pockets. Plus you can slide a pen inside the binding. We'll pick a color for you because you've got enough to do.

Good quality precision compass from Helix®. Measures 4-1/4" long and opens to a maximum of 2-1/8". Includes (3) spare 2mm leads and a spare locking wheel for leads on account of people losing them all the time.

Whatever auto manufacturer you think is super-fancy...PaperPro® is the "that" of staplers. In this combo package you'll get not only a compact 4-1/2" long spring-loaded stapler that could hardly be easier to use--even for multi-page stapling--but also a standard staple remover for those inadvertent attachments. We know--that'd be enough, but you'll also get a couple lengths of standard staples to get you started right away.

Mind your binders with these colorful three-ring versions, and unlike most of our binders these don’t have any misprints on them! You pick the sky blue binder with 1” D-rings or the truly fetching chartreuse baby, also with 2” rings All measure 11-1/2” x 10-1/2”.

Says so right on the packaging. Measures (pun intended) 18” long x 1-1/2” wide. Has 1/32” increments for the first inch, then 1/16” on one edge and 0-45cm in 1mm increments on the other. Made in England of blue-tinted translucent plastic. (There is no legal penalty for using it at home or in a school.)

Keep those sticky notes together and unpeeled with this bitsy spiral-bound notebook filled with (3) stacks of approx (25) 3” x 2” sticky notes plus approx (125) 2” x 5/8” skinny sticky slips, all in neon green, pink, yellow, orange and blue.

Inside a two-tone folding pouch is a small, 28-page lined notebook and an 8-digit calculator with percent and square-root functions. Perfect for the traveling investigative auditor. Calculator is powered by a small solar cell. The whole shebang measures 5-1/4” x 3-1/4” x 1/2” thick with a little tab to hold a pencil that isn’t there. Made in Germany, where they keep track of everything, and yes, the calculator slides right out.

From what mind sprang these pencil sharpener/erasers that look exactly like auto wheels and tires, we could only guess, but we won’t because we just work here. You’ll get (2) black eraser tires on grey wheels that conceal pencil sharpeners. The peelings stay in the wheel hubs until you empty them. Measure 2-5/8" dia x 7/8" thick. 

The original genuine real signature classics from 3M, 3” square in that familiar yellow, just in smaller pads than usual. Our each is a staggering (28) pads with (16) notes in each. Think about it--that’s enough for an entire classroom.

A pin-striped morning glory vine. Also these 4” square light blue Post-It® Super Sticky notes with 3/4” adhesive strips on the back and 5/16” blue rules on the front. Just (11) sheets to a pad but our each is (10) pads. Kids love Post-Its, so buy a few packs for the entire class.

Nice plastic protractor with a 6" x 1/16" ruler along the bottom, a swing arm and single-degree markings in both directions along the arc. Plus a compass that opens to a maximum 6’ radius x 1/8” increments. Isn’t geometry solid, man?

Accept no amateur rulers. But seriously, this 24-inch professional steel ruler from Helix® is cork-backed, and marked in 1/32” increments for the first two inches, 1/64” for the third, and 1/16” for the rest. Also shows 60cm x 0.5mm for the first 10cm, and 1mm for the remainder. Markings are etched, so they won’t rub off with use.

For photos, or anything else that will fit in the (30) 5-7/8” x 4-1/2” sleeves inside, these approx 6” x 6” 2-ring binders are made of aluminum in a license-plate style, complete with top-mounting holes. You pick the patriotic ones, marked USA or AMERICA against a red, white and blue flag background, or the CHICAGO version, which is a replica of the current Illinois plate.

Take a shorter portfolio. This one has a lovely black faux leather cover, 8-3/4” x 10-3/8" and comes with a 30-sheet pad of 7-3/8” x 9” lined white paper. Includes a little business card holder on the inside left, plus elastic corners to keep important notes under. Closes with a 1/2” wide elastic strap.

You’re not paranoid if people are actually trying to steal your stuff from right off your desk when you go to the bathroom, and we both know they are. Best to get this pistol-style mini-Dymo® label maker. Has a 3-3/8” rotary alphanumeric and punctuation wheel, and comes with approx 10 feet of 3/8” wide white-on-black tape.

Nice mahogany-stained thingy, too, with faux pleatherette sides and a drawer. Measures 7" x 4-3/4" x 4-1/8" with a 6-1/4” wide x 4” deep (with an open front) shelf on top and a slot for a wire in the back. We think it was made as a phone charger caddy. (It’s just wide enough for an iPhone 6 Plus without a case, and would probably take a wireless charger.) Also has a 5-1/4" x 3-9/16" x 1-7/8" drawer, clearly made to hold stuff.

Where else can you find (lightly) scented erasers shaped like giant rings with 1” square jewels? And packed inside clear plastic spheres? We’ll pick (1) in white, yellow, blue, green or another lovely color, but if you simply must have pink we’ve got that, too, and we’ll send it to you.
