Since it is back to school time I want to talk to you about a really cool company specialized in school and office supplies. Not the traditional plain designs, I am talking about color and style, I am talking about the Carolina Pad! Carolina Pad offers an awesome collection of school and office supplies that are of great quality and at the same time appealing to women and girls of all ages.
The Carolina Pad story begins in 1945 in Charlotte, North Carolina. That’s when Joseph K. Hall Jr. and several business associates managed to scrape up enough money and equipment to start up a school supply manufacturing company. Joe had been operating Hall & Morris, a school supply wholesale business in Belmont, North Carolina. The new company offered composition books, notebook paper, primary tablets, pencils, crayons, and other school supplies. A former teacher, principal, and coach, Joe was excited by the new company’s offerings.
It was in the 2000 when Clay Presley became Carolina Pad’s president and he quickly realized that business as usual was not an option and a new era started for Carolina Pad. The company shifted its focus from manufacturing to designing them. Carolina Pad was the first company to add fashion to school and allow me to say they did an awesome job.
They have divided they catalog of products into different collections from which I could not pick only one favorite I really like the color combination and the patterns they used for the different collections. Flowers, dots and stripes are some of the designs you will find in an explosion of color that is both fashionable and chic.
I was sent the Eye Candy 8 – pocket Organizational folder and I am so happy with it. It holds a lot more that what I first expected and it was I am currently using to keep all the reading material for the different reviews ( yes, I get homework ). And it is of great help to have all the material organized in one place.
I also received an Eye Candy Ideal Padfolio that as the name states is just ….Ideal.
This padfolio's colorful cover
is eye catching and durable!
Includes ideal notebook.
Padfolio
- 9.75" x 8.25"
- Inside pockets for storing business
cards and other loose documents.
- Refillable with Simply Chic Ideal Books
Notebook
- 8 3/4" x 7"
- 80 page count
- Twin wire coil
It is great to keep notes and write down ideas or little brain storms that I get sometimes about new products or designs for my store which I really need to write down, otherwise they are lost:).And the cover is a great way to protect the pad inside and is also really trendy , so I can take it with me anywhere.
Now the fun part. Carolina Pad has kindly offered a lucky Born 2 impress reader the chance to win 75.00 worth of their products for either school or office supplies.
