Book Fair Finds: Retro Stationery & Nostalgic Gifts

If you miss the thrill of flipping through erasers, pens, and little treasures at the school book fair, you’re in the right place. Here are some of our favorite “book fair” style finds—plus ideas for building your own nostalgic haul.

What makes something feel like a book fair find?

It’s usually small, fun, and a little unexpected—something you’d beg your teacher for “just one more” of. Think bright colors, quirky characters, and practical items that still feel like a treat.

  • Novelty pens and multi-color pens

  • Cute stationery and mini notebooks

  • Washi tape and stickers for decorating everything

  • Little collectibles (like enamel pins) that feel like prizes

Start your “book fair” stationery bundle

If you’re shopping for yourself or putting together a gift, here’s an easy way to build a book-fair-inspired bundle:

  1. Pick 1 “hero” item (a pen set, pouch, or journal).

  2. Add 2–3 small surprises (washi tape, stickers, clips, erasers).

  3. Finish with 1 collectible (an enamel pin or novelty item).
