Wahooo! A new Styled X3 is coming your way! And we have super talented ladies joining us this week. Like usual, I picked an item and bought three of them. I kept one and sent the others to some blogging friends of mine. It is my way of not only showing you different ways to use the items in your own homes, but introduce you to new bloggers you may not already be following.
This week I chose some pencils made from branches!
Branch & Twig Pencils (affiliate)
The lovely ladies joining us this month are Ursula from Home Made By Carmona and Abby from Just a Girl and Her Blog. I can't wait to see how they used these in their homes!
I actually had some of these twig pencils but they were colored. I use them to highlight or to color code my calendar. My kids are enamored with them so I decided to get more so they can use them too. I stuck them in my metal caddy!
I like to fill it with things I need all the time so they are easy to grab. I don't know about you but tape, scissors, pencils, and notebooks are the most used things day to day and the things that get misplaced by my kids the most.
Maybe it is because school is almost over, but I also thought these pencils would make a cute teacher gift. Tie a few up with string and add them to the top of a gift instead of a bow or give them with a gift card.
These are the tags I used. Feel free to print them out and use them :)
Make sure to go over to Ursula's and Abby's blogs to see what they did!
Those pencils are adorable!
Love those cute tags, Stacy! This was such a fun challenge. Thanks so much for inviting me to participate!

Wow, they have them in colors?!! I think I know what I'll be buying soon. :)
This was such a fun challenge, thanks for inviting me to join in the fun! <3
What an interesting look! I don't think I've seen this before. Thank you for sharing it on the party, and I hope you can come back again next week.
