The Rainbow Collection

Make a new year's resolution to add more color to your life with 500 colored pencils, delivered to your door in groups of 25 over the course of 20 months and tucked inside a lovely graphic box. The pencil pushers? Social Designer, which makes the pencils to order in creatively named hues that range from the evocative (Hawaiian Sky, French Mustard) to the mysterious (Cousin Clara, Secret Past). Billed as "the only set in the world that matches the span and wonder of human creativity," the pencils can double as artwork when tucked inside wall-mounted acrylic cases.
