Review: Carolina Pad, Fashionable Back-to-School Supplies

On the first day of school, it’s not just what your kids are wearing, but what they’re carrying that counts, too!  For my kids, gone are the days when they were happy with the solid-colored spirals and plain white binders.  If they’re going to be sitting through lessons and lectures, they want a little bit of personality showing through in their supplies!  Fortunately, our family was recently able to review a sampling of back-to-school products from Carolina Pad, the industry leader in turning supplies into fashion.

My girls were especially pleased with the bright colors and cool patterns of Carolina Pad collections like Whimsical Flower, Hot Chocolate, and the newly released Chit Chat (click on any picture above for a larger image).  They’re in good company with their taste, as other such trendy Carolina Pad products have been seen toted around by Miley Cyrus and Carrie Underwood, as well as featured on teen-centric shows like the CW’s “90210.”  (see all the media buzz surrounding Carolina Pad!)

We received a variety of Carolina Pad products – binders, organization folders, file folders, notebooks, and more.  All were not just fashionable, but sturdy, useful, and versatile.  Most of what we received had a feminine skew, so my son didn’t benefit as much as the girls, but he did enjoy the more masculine products from the Sasquatch Collection, Carolina Pad’s eco-friendly line created mostly from plant and recycled pulp materials.

From now until August 22nd, Carolina Pad is offering a 15% discount for shoppers who enter the code BTS2009.  All orders of $30 or more after discount are eligible for free shipping.
