This pen holder looks small, but it's actually very roomy, holds tons of stuff and, that being the case, it saves desktop space. It rotates beautifully. No assembling required. It is made of good antique-white plastic, very skandie if you want, so it looks great anywhere you put it. Good value for money.

Ezonedeal Fridge Drawer Organizer
This
fridge container and organiser is made of durable plastic, it has
ventilation slots on the base,. It can be easily placed on a fridge tray
and stays in place without moving or falling. Good for small pieces of
fruit or snack veggies. As you can see in my photos, I put some small
pieces of fruit in it, which is sort of bulky and heavy, and the
container stands it without trouble.
However, this is a small container (see my photo beside an A5 notebook) and the handles are bulky so it bulks up the tray it holds onto, and you'll have to mind which sort of container you place on that tray. So, in a way, it adds storage space on the hanging part, but it reduces storage space on the tray it hangs from.
Expensive for what it is.
UPDATE 8/5/22
The basket slides out and falls on the floor when I get any container placed on it out of the fridge. This is so because the two handle grips are too wide for my fridge trays. This being the case, the product has become a nuisance instead of what an organiser is is or intended to be.

Kasimir Drawing Pencils 14pcs/set (12B 10B 8B 7B 6B 5B 4B 3B 2B B HB 2H 4H 6H)
This is a surprisingly good kit of drawing pencils with different degrees of softness, thickness and intensity at an excellent price. I have used several of them in my drawings, and I'm really happy with them. I would have loved having a charcoal stick included and the package to be a tin, not cardboard, but that's me being picky.

Tombow Mono Zero Tri-Colour Barrel Round Eraser
This
is a great minuscule push-pen eraser perfect to erase small areas in a
drawing or to create shades or highlights. See my photos for the size compared to an average pencil tip. It nicely erases most graphite
traces. Very comfortable to use and to put away. As the tip is tiny, the
dust generated is not much. I own a mono zero rectangle eraser but I
prefer this circular version, as it is way smaller and more practical.
MIND
The package texts are written in Japanese.
Due to the size of the rubber, this one doesn't last much. placing the rubber bar won't take much time.

Kaisercraft Colour Acrylic Paint, Sage
I have many of these tubes. Needless to say, they aren't acrylic. They're cheap gouaches. However, the pigments are great and they are great value for money. Great for beginners on a budget. The sage colour is really pretty, especially when dry, but I have noticed that this tube is way runnier than other pigments. I've used this straight from the tube, without mixing it with water, and it has poor coverage and is really watery. Due to being water-based, the pigment dries lighter than the colour you get fresh from the tube.

Arteza Eraser Pencil with Brush and Sharpener Set
I have mixed feelings about this eraser. To be frank, I expected this to
be excellent, because Arteza is a reputed arts supplier. However, this
pack didn't match my expectations.
THE GOOD
> The rubber part is excellent and removes graphite traces that other good-brand erasers don't.
> These pencils are really perfect to erase small areas and for shading/ highlighting.
> I initially thought that the sharpener was unnecessary, as I have plenty of similar sharpeners. However, this one is especially designed to sharpen rubber and, after using it, I've realised that this is the one that sharpens the rubber perfectly.
> The brush is perfect to remove eraser/graphite dust.
> Good value for money as there are FIVE pencil erasers with attached brush plus the sharpener.
NOT SO GOOD
> When sharpening the eraser, part of it is wasted.
> If, by any chance, you use the sharpener a a bit over, the fine point rubber will break and it will be wasted.
> The brush is too stiff. I would rather have one stand alone medium quality brush than one bad one attached to each pencil.
> Due to the rubber waste mentioned above, these pencils last less than smaller fine push-up erasers.

Suneke Blue & White Porcelain Paper Napkins, 20 Count (33×33cm)
These are artistic good quality paper napkins, They're quite large, have two layers and are true to the product photos. Perfect for fancy picnics, high tea or to use them when you have visitors. I use them mostly for decoupage, as a cluster image (by selecting one of the printed areas) or as background for some of my mix media collages. Pricey, but I'm very much in love with these. The back layer is easy to peal off.
I specially like the blue and white bird item, but all of the ones I have purchased are fabulous and mini artistic pieces on their own.
