This is a simple but effective cutter. It does the job for a fraction of the price other cutters do. It looks great on the table, it is lightweight, and the cutter cuts well. Measurements are both in centimeters and inches. On the other hand, the cutter is a bit rough, not really sharp, and the measurements on the pad, all being in black, aren't especially visible. One of my main issues with this product is the fact that there is no adjustable holds to hold the paper in a way that it doesn't move when you close the press. If you want a precision cutter, this is not for you. However, it is OK for general use and at a good price.

Westcott Circles Template., Jumbo
This is an A4 circle template/stencil made of good quality flexible plastic, with a great range of circle sizes. Easy to use whether just to draw in pencil or with paint. I've used it with both graphite and gouache paints, and it cleans easily. I would not use it with archival ink or any non water-based/distressing ink as it will stain the plastic. I'm happy with the product, but it's really pricey for what it is.
Yuroochii 360-Degree Rotating Pen Holder, 3 Slots
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.

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.
