A while back I have reviewed the Bright Ideas Journal from Chronicle Books. Recently I have received the Bright Ideas Pencils that goes along with the journal.
Based on the same concept of the book, each pencil also has specific names that will inspire you in your writing. The names are similar than the section found in the journal - Red Hot Ideas, Blazing Breakthroughs, Rosy Outlooks, Twilight Insights, Silver Linings, Deep Reflections, Blue Sky Brainstorms, Evergreen Inspirations, Freshly Minted Inventions, and Sunny Thoughts.
As you can see the color of the outside of the pencils are very similar to the color of the sections in the journal.
After using the pencils myself, I consider that these pencils are very similar to regular pencils. But the price tag is seriously ridiculous. I wouldn’t pay that much for pencils. The journal I would consider because it is unique but having the matching pencils is a bit too much for my taste. Mind you when I was younger I might have splurge on these cool pencils just because they were out-of-the-ordinary. I recall purchasing cool erasers and pens for quite some time. Now that I am much wiser, I wouldn’t do such a thing anymore. Consequently, though the look is different and that it matches the journal, I wouldn’t recommend getting these. However, if you want to do a special gift for the writer in your life, why not getting both the journal and the pencils. Then it would make sense to buy fun and cool pencils…
