Carolina Pad- Fashionable School Supplies (Review & Giveaway)

Going back to school is always a drag- waking up early, listening to boring lectures, being barraged with school work… Of course, you get to meet new people, learn new things, and the best part- shop for new school supplies!

Since the Hannah Montana and Power Rangers options at Wal-Mart aren’t really cutting it for me anymore, I went online to look for more fashionable options. I was looking for pieces that were stylish, functional, and unique- ones that would get compliments and start conversations! Oh, and of course, I wanted them to be affordable. And I wanted a range of options, so I could mix and match as I pleased. Difficult, aren’t I?

Carolina Pad doesn’t think so, as they’ve covered all of my search bases without hesitation. There are twelve different collections to pick from, and each pictures a range of items: folders, journals, notebooks, binders, sticky notes, magnets, photo albums, photo books, address books, pens, and even things like laptop bags & sleeves, and mouse pads! Folders are $0.99 and notebooks start at $3.99, so these beautiful supplies aren’t any more expensive than the ones you buy at whatever local store you normally shop at…. But they’re absolutely chic!

The Eye Candy Laptop Tote is one of my favorites- it’s also super affordable at $24.99! I just got a new computer and have been browsing laptop bags; I haven’t seen any this stylish for such a low price.

I was lucky enough to receive a wonderful selection of products from Carolina Pad, so I can attest to the fact that the products really are gorgeous, and incredibly well made. They aren’t leather bound volumes that are going to last a lifetime, but they’re certainly going to last you through the semester (and the items you don’t carry around every day will surely last longer).

Nine collections (and varying products) are available through Carolina Pad’s online store. If you use the code “CP_Shipping” you’ll receive free shipping on orders over $30!

    Early on Joseph K. Hall, Jr. sold products directly to the schools in the Carolinas and Virginia often out of the back of his truck. Thanks for the extra entry.

    Rite Aide locally sells some Carolina Pad products but not the Sasquatch collection I love best. About 30 minutes away is a Walgreens that does have them and I have purchased them there. My granddaughter shops at Target and K-Mart where she lives at college and they carry them, also. She doesn’t care what collection it comes from she just could use the school supplies. Thanks for the extra entry.

    Carolina Pad Starts a Fashion Revolution In 2000, Carolina Pad helped transform the stationery industry. How? By introducing fashion school and office products , i can tell you my daughter is very glad that someone did this, school would have been more fun if we had such pretty supplies

    Such a tough decision! I believe my favorite is the Sasquatch Collection — I love that it is eco-friendly and uses recycled materials.
    Thanks!

    I learned that Carolina Pad shifted its focus from manufacturing products to designing them in 2000.
    Thanks!
