Etsy's Maoiliosa Shop Creates Paper Wrapped Pencil Designs

— July 18, 2014 — Art & Design
Etsy's Maoiliosa shop designs Japanese-inspired paper wrapped pencils that are adorned with botanical and other graphic prints. The stationary accessories celebrate tradition and encourage handwriting in a tech-obsessed world.

In addition to its pencil products, Maoiliosa also creates paper goods and jewelry, made by shop owner Melissa. The designer uses gorgeous Japanese washi paper and natural wood to create her stationary and style accessories that are both aesthetically striking and practical.

These paper wrapped pencils are no exception and boast a gorgeous and pink-hued floral design that is displayed on a light blue backdrop.

Each of these charming pencil sets are packaged with care in a light brown gift box. The pieces are a perfect gift for teachers, students and budding writers with an appreciation for classic stationary designs.
