Viking Direct Office Supplies REVIEW

I'm really lucky to have my very own home office for blogging and crafting, and it was great to receive lots of stationery bits & pieces from Viking to supplement my current stash.

My home office aka Jelly Rose Headquarters - with my PC desk, a dressing table which I use for crafting etc, and a little coffee table with a fabric cover for photographing blog items! 

Here is my Viking stationery items on my fabric-covered coffee table! 

The little black notepad is a great addition to my blogging kit. It fits perfectly in my handbag and ready-to-go when I have a moment of inspiration out-n-about.

My roomy handbag - perfect size for my blogging equipment
I can fit my camera tripod, little digital camera, my main blogging camera (not shown), an A7 sized notepad, plus my purse, phone, keys and the random stuff most girls add to their handbags like makeup and gum

The USB memory stick was immediately placed on my keyring, and has been used numerous times to share photos with my family and to print out cherished photos at supermarket photo centres. So easy and universal, and convenient!

The chocolate disappeared very quickly (wink wink), but we're slowly getting through the delicious yet huge 1kg tub of Cadbury Hot Chocolate powder.

The highlighters, paper clips, rubber bands and sticky notes are very useful additions to my home office: the highlighters are great for pointing out key facts in the various press releases and product information pamphlet ready for blogging reviews. And I use sticky notes to label various boxes and items.

Here is my dressing table which I now use for crafting, scrapbooking, and various other office & admin jobs

I shared the A5-sized notepads between myself, Tristan and Scarlett. We used Tristan's to help him with his writing and homework. Scarlett's was just paper to doodle over. And I placed mine next to my computer desk so I can jot down my thoughts whilst working on the PC.

The box of pens were dispatched to various areas of the houses: the pen pot in the kitchen, next to the telephone memo pad and the home office.

Even Lee grabbed a few items so he can study for his next exam (he's currently studying a degree in purchasing on top of his full-time job).

All the items arrived less than 32 hours after they were ordered, and arrived nicely boxed up too. I'm very impressed - thank you.
