Smencils! Smelly Pencils! Made From Recycled Newspaper!



Smencils! Smelly Pencils! Made From Recycled Newspaper!

Yes they're super-fun smelling pencils, but they're super green! These pencils are not made from wood - they're made from 100% recycled newspaper. Smencils sharpen the same as all other wood pencils and they smell way better. Sniff up a set of 10 Smencils in: Orange, Cherry, Bubble Gum, Peppermint, Fruit Punch, Watermelon, Grape, Pineapple, Root Beer, and Cinnamon. (You can even see the bits of newspaper as you sharpen them!)


Well, the price isn't exactly very friendly to the pockets. At USD$11.50, that's so much more than you are paying for for regular colour pencils. The dilemma: would you pay more for something that's eco-friendly, or pay for something that is a lot lesser but may not be that environmentally friendly?
