School supply time! My favorite! Can I ask, what is the advantage of the Stabilo Woody? Is it just the thickness? (It is cute.)

Hi Brenda, of course! Their thickness is certainly an advantage, and I think they have a nice range of pastel colors that aren’t available in the Neocolors. Otherwise they have the same features as the Neocolors which are artist grade so I would gravitate towards recommending those over the Woodys :) hope that helps!

They are so nice to play with and surprisingly affordable for their quality! Hope you get to try them soon!

Thank you for mentioning my post! I loved reading this. Been meaning to try those Blackwing pencils, they look so dark and soft.
