Fairies in the Garden Six Colour Ballpoint Pen

This six colour ballpoint pen puts six inks inside one slim barrel, so you can move from black to purple, blue, green, orange or red without reaching for another pen. The barrel is wrapped in the Fairies in the Garden print. Little fairies in pink dresses flit among white daisies, blue forget-me-nots, white bell flowers, butterflies and bright leaves, all on a deep teal ground. The domed cap, clip and tapered grip are a cheerful sky blue, and the white top section holds a coloured slider for each ink. It is 14cm long, a comfortable everyday length in the hand.

Keep it on the desk for colour-coding lists, planners and diaries, or slip it into a pencil case or bag for notes on the go. Six inks in one pen means fewer pens to carry: black for everyday writing, red for corrections, and the brighter shades for underlining, labelling, doodling and sketching in the margins. It suits a home office, a study corner or a kitchen table where the family lists live, and the garden print brings a little colour to the plainest notebook. It makes a cheerful small gift for anyone who loves pretty stationery, and it is an easy extra to tuck alongside a card.

The pen is made from plastic and metal, with six inks housed in the one barrel. To change colour, slide down the coloured tab for the ink you want and it comes to the tip. The clip holds it to a pocket, a notebook cover or the edge of a planner, so it is always to hand, and at 0.014KG it adds next to no weight to a bag. To care for it, wipe the barrel with a soft damp cloth to keep the print bright. We like it clipped to the front of a plain notebook, where the fairies and flowers add a cheerful spark to every page.
