pencil shaving collar

Confession: every so often we find our writing hanging over our heads. When writer's block comes knocking and deadlines loom, we can wind up feeling the burden of our pens and pencils on our shoulders, and we can't help thinking it would be a much more enjoyable experience if the weight was a literal one from this pencil shaving collar.

Dreamt up by German Etsy seller Green Accordion, it comes in a bunch of lovely colours, snipped carefully out of cosy felt. It's also part of a larger range of literary loveliness – to have a squiz at what's on offer, head on over here.
