Looking for the perfect fit? We’ve put together this handy at-a-glance guide to help you match our personalised stationery sets with the right pencil case or tin. One of the most common questions we receive is: “Which pencil case will fit these pencils?” “Will these named pens fit in a personalised pencil tin?”
So here you’ll find everything you need to know about which of our cases and tins are compatible with each type of pencil or pen set. Whether you’re shopping for a birthday, Christmas, Back to School, a teacher’s gift or just a special treat, we’ve got you covered.
Personalised Pencil Cases
Our standard Personalised Pencil Cases and Personalised Pencil Cases with Glitter Writing are all the same size, and they comfortably fit:
- Any of our personalised pencils
- Felt-tip pen sets
Available in a lovely range of colours, you can also choose from glitter text or our exclusive Mulberry Bush designs, such as Rainbow Unicorns, Space Adventure, Jungle Safari, Fairies, or Ocean Life. Perfect for children of all ages.
Personalised Pencil Tins
