Customise and personalise stationery

Create attractive notebooks and desktop stationery for yourself or as gifts for friends.

The edding 1200 colourpen and edding 1300 colourpen ranges are great products for creative enthusiasts for writing, sketching or colouring on light paper or cardboard. Thanks to their high-quality, fade-resistant, water-based ink and extensive colour ranges, these edding fibrepens are ideal for crafting and designing all kinds of decorative items, Available in various assorted metal tins, the pens themselves make perfect gifts.

But why not take it a step further and, for that truly personal touch, use them to decorate your own range of customised stationery or desktop accessories. A pen holder for desk use, for example, would make a great gift for someone.

Step-by-step

Step 1

For the pen holders and other desktop items/containers: cut bright coloured paper to the appropriate size and fix in place before you start, using the scissors and glue.

Step 2

Whilst the glue is drying, plan your design – we recommend using simple patterns or words in complimentary or co-ordinating colours. Alternatively you can select one of ours from the downloadable templates available.

Step 3

Once you've finished the pen holder or desktop accessories why not use the same technique to decorate notebooks, ring binders or address books; the possibilities are endless!
