This post brought to you by Great Clubs. The content and opinions expressed below are that of Penelope’s Oasis. Growing up, book clubs and music clubs and movie clubs were very popular. Depending on your favorite past time, you might have really enjoyed one, but sometimes things like books and music and movies are hit […]
I have very vivid childhood memories of grocery shopping with my mom, whom I’m sure wanted me to eat healthy, but whom always chose notably unhealthy items for us to have for breakfast. She would basically pick up anything she thought we’d eat without a fuss, to make the mornings easier for her. She always […]
This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of Olay. The opinions and text are all mine. Finding a picture you look good in is something that might be on your mind this month, when it’s time to send out holiday greeting cards. I shared some of my favorite tips for taking great […]
Shopping for an astronomy buff? The minds of these little stargazers are off in another galaxy, but they’re still stuck here, so why not help them get a little closer to where their hearts are at? Obviously they likely already have the telescope and the charts, so we wanted to get a little creative, especially […]
I think I’m going to have to get Star Walk for myself. I’m always looking up at the stars and trying to figure out what constellations I’m seeing. Will be handy to have an app instead of googling!
I downloaded it to check them out, and I expected a whole book of ideas. I love how concise it is! I’m saving them and trying them out. I ended up leaving an umbrella with a note for co-workers two times when we had some really rainy days here, and I also shared treats with neighbors with notes. I bought the metallic bics.
BIC pens are great and these are lovely ideas for using them. I like the idea of random acts of kindness with pretty, hand-written notes attached 🙂
Bic Pens are wonderful! I love using them for doodling in my planners!
Treasure hunts are really fun to do especially for kids. This kind of activity trains them with their focusing skills and gives them more excitement to reach the goal.
I think all of these ideas are great but the one I want to focus on most is the random acts of kindness. I’m so happy that this is starting to spread just because it shows that some of us still have a heart.
When I was at school I loved using BIC pens, and still do because the smooth writing makes getting in a creative flow with them so easy.
I’m OBSESSED with these pens! Seriously love them!
Thank you for the coupon. I am addicted to pretty coloured pens and markers. I love the sapphire blue one that you show in your post. I need to go out and buy these markers. The crafting possibilities are endless.
These ideas are so much fun! We go through a lot of pens around here and the specialty ones are always a super hot commodity.
