Review on πŸ–ŠοΈ Kikkerland Potted Pen Stand (SC24): The Perfect Desk Organizer for Pens! by Kristen Reid

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great idea, bad implementation.

I saw this pen holder and thought "Oh! How sweet! My flower pens will look great in them!” No. There's barely enough room to insert the grips, even with the caps removed (which, by the way, need to be there to pierce the foam that makes up most of the heat-sealed body). The rest of the pot is filled with a weighted bottom. Pieces of grass are removed from the "frame" and have slightly sharp edges. Basically enough to give you paper cuts. Although it is plastic and not silk, it is not surprising. Also, it's pretty short so I have a feeling once I put the handle in there it's going to stick out a lot. This is my fault as the height is shown in the item images. Finally a cute decor piece for those of us who just can't grow plants. Not the best pen holder.

Pros
  • A sea of positive emotions
Cons
  • Big and chunky
