Back to School- Stationary Essentials!

Hey guys!
Sorry I've not blogged for a while- I've had a list the length of my arm of posts to write, photograph and upload, but my camera's been playing up and I've been really busy!

Anyway, this is the second of my "Back to School Series" posts, click here to view my first one on how to spruce up your school books!
Todays post is going to basically be a "What's in my schoolbag"-type post, and tomorrow's will be a "Back To School Make-up/Skincare Essentials". If you're looking at the above montage (yeah, I can edit!) and thinking "where is her actual schoolbag?", I have to tell you that it arrived in the post just after I took all my pictures and I couldn't be bothered to take any more. Whoops. To be fair though, I had taken many pictures for many future posts. So, to make up for my laziness I will insert some just below from the website:)

Isn't it pwetty? Awh, I love this bag soo much!

Anyway, there has been WAY too much rambling going on so far, so, without further ado, I will get on with the blog post and talk you through my stationary!

                                                The Whooolllleeee lot of it!
So, first up is a pretty big essential- my pencil case!

Now, I find that you can opt for one of three types of pencil cases- a plain large one that does the job, a brightly patterned giant one, or a novelty fun one. I went for the latter this year, and, as you can see, MY PENCIL CASE IS IN THE SHAPE OF A PAPER AEROPLANE!

Haha, how cute is it though? It's really cool, and has a big enough amount of storage space! Check it on amazon here!

My pencil case contains many strange and wild wonders including...

... these really cool, eco-friendly remarkable pencils!

They are also made from recycled CD cases which is also extremely cool! I picked these up from Waterstones for £1.50, which I thought was great deal!

My pencil case also contains 3 uniball eye fine black ink pens. These pens always win hands-down for me for comfortable grip, flowing, controlled and pigmented ink and longevity!

I bought these from W H Smiths, however you can pick them up in most good stationary shops!

I also think that a pair of small scissors is a really good essential to have in your pencil case as you never know when you or others may need them!

I bought these from W H Smiths too!

Another little essential that can come in really handy when you least expect is glue!

I picked up this cute little pink coloured one from Smiths again, but is available most places!

I always find that rubbers and pencil sharpeners are like bobby pins and hair bobbles- they always go missing. However, when I spotted this brightly coloured 2-in-1 number, I knew that problem was solved!

As you can see, it's really bright and funky and looks really great.

So that's my pencil case out of the way, however I have a few more items like these that will be tucked away in a pocket of my bag, not in my pencil case!

The first of these is my scientific calculator, which is a must as I am currently studying my Maths GCSE!

However, I decided to go for a pink one as I thought it would add another dimension of colour and brightness to my stationary! You can buy yours from most stationary shops!

The second of these is my Oxford Maths Set!

Everyone needs a good Geometry set, and I've decided to go a bit vintage with this one because it reminds me of when I was younger, as I used to struggle along with my Primary School Maths homework with this same set, haha!

I think that a notebook is one of the most essential items to take with you to school- you will find that notes are invaluable to you as you begin revising for exams- try to jot down key information and tips to improve work in the notebook! I found the absolute perfect notebook in Paperchase today; it has many pages (lined), but is still lightweight as it has no ringbinder, a cute cover, designated space to write the date and subject and it was only £3!

I love this notepad very much, and am really looking forward to jotting down notes in it!

Whilst I was at Paperchase I also picked up some Sticky Tabs, which are great for marking pages in books!

I love these as they are sooo lovely, with cute doodles and pretty pastel colours!

Rush to the shops and get them now!

The last thing in my schoolbag are school books! I have done a tutorial on how to turn them from drab to fab, click here to see it, and I thought I would let you see which books are in my schoolbag!

Anthologies and workbooks area given, but make sure that you are clear about which days you need them- if you bring them in every day it's an un-needed weight in a very full school bag, if you don't and you need it that day then you're in a bit of a pickle! I have a whiteboard by my bed!
Thank you for reading this post, it might have taken a while, but thank you all for your support!
Tomorrow's post will be on Makeup and Skincare for school so remember to check back, follow, like and erm, yeah! Please, it would honestly make my day!
