Pencil Sharpener - Kate Eschbach Photography-1a

Disclosure:   I was sent a Pencil Sharpener from Classroom Friendly Supplies to try out and review. I am so grateful to companies who provide opportunities like this for my family!

Pencil Sharpener - Kate Eschbach Photography-5a

My momma was a teacher for 21 years. There is nothing quite like school supplies, especially perfectly sharpened pencils, to bring back memories of getting ready for that first day of school. My sister-in-law is a special needs teacher. I had been looking for a perfect gift for her classroom and now, I think I’ve found it!

I was reading Sara’s post, The Best Pencil Sharpener Ever and Why You should buy one, and decided that I just had to order one! I clicked over to the company’s website and learned that the company is owned by an elementary school teacher. You’ve gotta love that.

You can choose green, blue, red, or black.

I decided to go with red, because it matched my kitchen. (You can see what was happening here – I was unknowingly shifting from buying her a gift to buying myself a gift. Oops).

Well, it arrived and we love it! Sara was right. It works on any pencil and the kids have no problems using it. I loved that there were no plugs or chords to worry about. To me, that seems like the perfect gift for a teacher! I don’t need to worry about how her classroom is set up or if she has any extra outlets for an electric sharpener.

Take a look at Classroom Friendly Supplies and go get one! I’ll be heading back over there for my sister-in-law’s Christmas present since I have hijacked this one!
