Focus on: Bob’s Your Uncle

June 20, 2010

Today in our “Focus On” series (wherein I get to put together fun collages with Polyvore and pretend that their useful), we’re taking a look at Bob’s Your Uncle, a “think outside the box” maker of smart office supplies. I’m a huge fan.

I think what I love most about Bob’s Your Uncle products is their mix of clever, tongue-in-cheek styling with rock solid performance. They aren’t just silly for silly’s sake and I appreciate that.

Here are four of my (many) favorite products:

  1. I get asked all the time what notebook I use to keep my To Do Lists – this is it! The Off The Grid Notebook. (The perfect grid paper spiral notebook!)
  2. Punctuation Page Markers. Add a little bit of zotch to your boring ol’ documents.
  3. The Multi-Task Planner Journal: chock full of all kinds of useful items, including grid paper, check box pages for lists and a planner journal.
  4. The 8 Days a Week Mousepad Notepad: keep your weekly schedule right onĀ  your desk with this tear-off mousepad notepad. Eight days = Monday – Sunday + Someday. Perfect.

You can check out their online store or buy many of their items at See Jane Work or Amazon.



  1. A Really Juicy Giveaway of Knock Knock Organization Products I love the line of products offered by Knock Knock...
  2. Organizing in a pretty pink place: girly office supplies I’m not so much a pink girl, but lately, mostly...
  3. New obsession: Girl of All Work Very few things make my heart skip a beat faster...

Thanks for the tips; I’m always looking to get more organized and there is nothing to make it more fun than new office/desk accessories!

I have been browsing around #hostname and actually am impressed by the awesome content here. I work the night shift at my job and it is so dull. I have been coming right here for the past couple of nights and reading. I simply needed to let you know that I’ve been loving what I have seen and I just can’t wait to read more.
