why do we collect things? that is a very good question. is it because these things remind us of certain times, places, people? when i go to visit the sequined girl, i often end up looking at her beautiful desk, and the wonderful bits and pieces that seem to be placed in her pen pots. she took a picture of them.
the odd girl- out of all the bits and bobs in your pen pots, what item has the most special meaning to you?
the sequined girl- my paintbrush that has sparkles, sequins and cake sprinkles stuck to it.
the odd girl- what is the story behind this item?
the sequined girl- for my birthday one year my friend's threw me a doll themed party, and the sprinkles and glitter were scattered all over the table cloth. when the party ended i glued the scattered bits and pieces onto a paper so i would remember. but they all stuck to the paintbrush. and i love it. it is so cute.
the odd girl- is there anything odd sitting in your pots that make you think "why do i have that there?"
the sequined girl- i have a spoon made out of wood in one of my pots. not only am i unsure why it is there, but i am not sure why i have it or even where it came from!

hello. the sequined girl here. i went to the odd girl's quirky little nook and she took a photograph of her little pots sandwiched with pens and other things.
the sequined girl- so your pen pots... surely supposed to be filled with pens. what exactly do you have cammed in them?
the odd girl- hmm thats a good question. lots of random stuff i guess, from straws i stole on holiday, a small rubber hand from a halloween party, and even the doctor's screwdriver
the sequined girl- ooh that is random. what's your most favourite piece from your collection of 'random stuff'?
the odd girl- a small yellow candle that is hidden right at the bottom of the jar. its from my last birthday. it was on top of my ice cream.the sequined girl- what ice cream was it?
the odd girl- a chocolate-fudge-thing...i think..oh and it had loads of cream on top
the sequined girl- so are they all of your pens that sit in those pots? or do you keep them somewhere else?
the odd girl-
i have loads of loose pens in my bag..but i also do have a cute tin my friend brought me with all my other pens/pencils/paintbrushes in. but that lives at uni.
i wonder what other sweet souls out there have collected in their pen pots. are they just pens or are other silly things sneekily hiding through crayons and pencils?
