Stubby Pencil Studio – Eco-friendly art supplies galore!
If your children (or grandchildren, or nieces, or nephews….) are into art like mine are, you’ll find Stubby Pencil Studio to be a tangible, visual (and olfactory) treat! It was begun in 2006 by Kate Rosenthal, and is pointed at stationery and art supply products that are both eco-friendly and child-friendly.
Stubby Pencil Studio’s product assortment is astounding and awe-inspiring. There’s something for everyone here! Take a look at a few of their spectacularly fun items:
There are tons of great gift ideas for adults, such as the ever-popular Envirosax in assorted colors & styles:

Recycled children’s stationery, such as Color ‘n Kids cards and card sets:

Eco-friendly art supplies, like E-color-gy washable art markers:

Terrific educational games such as the SpinnySpeller:

Kate sent over a fun assortment of goodies from her shop for my two little ones to create with and enjoy! They have been sniffing the Holiday Smencils and doodling with their coveted soy-based Crayon Rocks….and are so proud of the Made By Me vehicles that they assembled all on their own!
You need to bookmark Stubby Pencil Studio….it’s an all-around fantastic shop for art supplies of all kinds to use all year long….and right now, it’s a one-stop-shop for one-of-a-kind stocking stuffers! (They’ll even make it ultra-easy by gift-wrapping items for you!)
Win it! Kate at Stubby Pencil Studio has oh-so-generously offered one of my readers a $50 gift certificate to her shop! Imagine all of the neat items you could get! To enter to win, just tell me, in a comment below, one or two things from Stubby Pencil Studio that you’d most definitely purchase if you won. I’ll close the contest next Thursday, December 3rd, 2009 at 11pm EST. Sorry; US entries only. Have fun shopping….and good luck!
CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED.
Congratulations to commenter #26, Lisa!
