Description
This pencil sharpener takes the shape of a little pink bunny, dressed head to toe in a pink hooded suit with two rounded ears on top and a flower-shaped bag worn across its body. A white face peeps out from the hood with two dark eyes, rosy cheeks and a tiny pink nose, and a yellow flower sits at the centre of the bag. Behind all that charm is a working sharpener: a single opening set into its back takes standard size pencils. It stands 4.3cm tall, 3.2cm wide and 2.7cm deep, so it sits easily in the palm of a hand.
We think it belongs in a pencil case, where it is small enough to slip in beside pens, rubbers and a ruler without taking up much room. It is just as at home on a study desk or a craft table, standing upright on its flat base and ready for a quick sharpen whenever a colouring pencil or an everyday writing pencil runs blunt. Because it takes standard size pencils, there is no hunting for anything special to fit it; the ordinary pencils already in the drawer will do nicely. The soft pastel pink and the friendly little face bring a cheerful note to homework, sketching and list writing alike.
It is made from plastics and metal, and the whole piece is very light, so it adds next to nothing to a bag or a pencil case. For the neatest point, turn the pencil gently and steadily, and empty the shavings over a bin. To keep the pink looking fresh, wipe the outside with a damp cloth and let it dry before putting it away. As a gift, it is a small, useful treat that will be picked up every day, and it tucks easily in with a card or alongside a fresh set of pencils.
