The Pinocchio Eraser Gets Rid of Little White Lies and Other Mistakes
Meghan Young — April 14, 2013 — Art & Design
The Pinocchio Eraser is an adorable stationery tool that is fit for children and adults alike. It allows people to erase all of their white lies and tiny mistakes with the help of the fairy tale character's long nose. Interestingly, by helping people erase their pencil regrets, the Pinocchio Eraser is able to redeem itself as well. With each erase, its nose becomes smaller.
Designed by Jason Pang and available online at the Neatoshop, the Pinocchio Eraser even looks like it was made out of wood. Sold in sets of two, the Pinocchio Eraser is cute enough to leave out in the open like a decorative desk ornament. With this in mind, it would make a great gift for a colleague.
