Product Spotlight - Skins Fashion Stapler
Here's a neat idea from Swingline - a stapler that you can customize. The Skins Fashion Stapler is a half-strip stapler that can staple up to 20 sheets of paper and it uses standard staples.
The stapler itself is white, as shown in the picture here. The package contains a special code, which you enter online at http://swingline.skinit.com and then you choose the design you like the best. You can also upload a personal design from your computer. The skin is basically a sticker, which Swingline says is easy to apply and remove. I haven't done it myself, but when my son was little we bought skins for his Gamecube (am I giving away my age?) and they were easy to apply.
When the skin arrives in the mail, simply wipe down the stapler to remove any dust, and apply the skin - it's that easy. You receive 3 pieces - 1 for the main body and 2 slim pieces for the bottom sides. I've included a few pics of some sample designs for you to see. The first skin is free with the code included in your package. You can replace the skin with a new one at any time. What I can't tell you is whether there's a way to keep the one you took off and reapply it later.
I love fun things like this - how cool to have your own personalized item! You could get your favorite sports team, your kid's college logo (or yours), your favorite cartoon, a piece of art, a picture of your pet...the possibilities are endless. The Skinit site has TONS of designs!
