Black and White Winner and Loads of Links!

Black and White Assortment

We have almost come to the end of the week of giveaways. My office is looking much tidier now that I’ve boxed up all these extraneous office supplies which will give me room to search for more goodies.

So, the winning number for the black and white giveaway is:

Floral Bomb Sunday Giveaway

Flower Bomb

Today is the last of the Anniversary week giveaways. There will be more giveaways in the future but not seven straight days… probably! Anyway, thanks for sticking around and reading the blog. Giving back to the community is the best way I could think for thanking you for reading the blog these past three years.

Today I have a rainbow assortment of florals. I matched a few fun pens with the books like a Sakura opaque white gel, a silver metallic Slicci and a bright pink Zebra Sarasa. The notebooks are from a variety of sources and many of the pages are printed with designs to make notetaking and journaling a little more colorful.

Some items may have been used for writing tests and review but are practically new with one or two pages marked in the back for testing purposes. More items may be added later.

To enter, just leave a comment and tell me your favorite flower to be officially entered. Don’t like flowers? Tell me your favorite tree, herb or plant instead.

FINE PRINT: All entries must be submitted by 10pm CST on Monday, June 24, 2013. All entries must be submitted at wellappointeddesk.com, not Twitter, Tumblr or Facebook, okay? Winner will be announced on Tuesday. Winner will be selected by random number generator from entries that played by the rules (see above). ONE entry per person, please. Please include your email address in the comment form (not in your comment) so that I can contact you if you win. I will not save email addresses or sell them to anyone — pinky swear. Shipping via USPS first class is covered. Additional shipping options or insurance will have to be paid by the winner. We are generous but we’re not made of money.

(Shoutout to JetPens and all the other nice folks who’ve given me samples to review over the years)

Mad Men Modernist

Mad-Men-Drapers-Office

Even Don Draper needs to upgrade his office furniture every season or so. The set designers for Mad Men worked hard to make the office furniture appropriate for the time period using both vintage and reproduction pieces. The article on Midcentry Modernist goes into extensive detail about the specific pieces used and the subtle upgrades made throughout the series.
