Pencil Sharpener Desk Tidy
20140 - Price: £14.95
Fee fi fo fum. We stole this enormous sharpener from a passing giant. Sadly, we couldn't lift the pencils, but regular size ones, pens, scissors and other paraphernalia fit in just fine, making your office cutting edge and tidy.
Handpicked because:
Keeps your desk looking sharp.
Give it to:
Messy tycoons who have never heard of the paperless office.
Boring bits:
Wood and stainless steel. (Doesn't sharpen pencils!).
