I bet you never thought of regular, old-fashioned #2 pencils as an environmentally unsound item, but they are! One average sized cedar tree will make about 170,000 wooden pencils. That doesn’t sound too bad, until you hear about Smencils. This new take on the classic pencil is made from recycled newspaper. In fact, to make the same 170,000 Smencils, you will only need 430 newspapers. That is a truly astonishing improvement over the classic wooden pencil. 75,000 trees can be saved if Smencils were to recycle a single run of the Sunday New York Times. That is a lot of trees that can be protected.
Smencils are stored and shipped in environmentally safe corn-based plastic containers as well. These are biodegradable and good for nature as well. Even the erasers won’t damage the environment.
Is that enough to make you want to buy a Smencil over a regular #2 pencil? It should be, but there is one huge extra benefit of this wonderful product: They smell divine! That’s right, Smencils are soaked in intense aromatics that permeate the pencil through and through. This creates a “Smelly Pencil” that kids will clamor for. Even sharpening them become fun as the shavings will give off a fabulous smell.
The smells are amazing! You may choose from one of the ten standard smells, or seek the limited holiday or Valentine’s Day Smencils. These smelly pencils are guaranteed to please!
And now there are several new Smens – you guessed it “Smelly Pens!” These pens are made in a very similar fashion to the pencils and come in several other flavors like Mocha, Aloha, Creamsicle, Ninja Berry, Red Licorice, Passion Fruit, Mystery Scent, Black Licorice, Pink Lemonade, and Banana Fo Fana. Smencils and Smens are great gifts for kids heading back to school, but are also a fabulous gift to stock up on for those last-minute kids birthday parties and stocking stuffers at Christmas. Children and Adults alike will love these highly scented pens and pencils.
Think about what great gifts these make. They are extremely popular, creative and fun! How many times throughout the year do you need a small gift or token of appreciation for someone. Smencils and Smens will make a perfect gift!
