Hi fellow stationery lovers! I wanted to share a spring stationery bingo we're starting over in r/stationeryprojectpan in case you're interested in participating. If you're not familiar with panning, it comes from the makeup community and it's about using the things you already have. For our spring bingo board, the idea is to draw from your existing stationery collection to fill out the bingo board's different themes and challenges. I'm sharing the board here and you're welcome to share updates in r/stationeryprojectpan if you wind up participating! Thank you u/Big-Spirit317 for permission to share here 😄

Some more notes:

* The squares are intentionally broad so that it makes it easier for more of us to participate, since we all have different ways we use our stationery. If you can’t complete a square but have a way you can approximate it, that’s totally cool.
* You can use the same items for multiple squares but use them on separate occasions. For example, if you do a journal spread with lots of pink flower stickers for the “Flowers” square, I’d suggest doing something separate for the “Pink” square, like a card using the same pink flower stickers.
* **Themes:** Many squares this time are broad themes, such as spring, books, art, and outer space. Feel free to interpret broadly. For art, maybe you’re sending Frida Kahlo postcards you have or writing in your journal about a trip to a museum. For outer space, maybe you have star washi tape or space-themed stickers you want to use.
* **Colors:** This board also includes five color squares. Bonus points if you use multiple shades and, say, show off all the purple items you use for something.
* **Three things you are avoiding using:** This is for those items you are holding onto because they feel too nice to use.
* **Two favorite items:** Show off two of your fave parts of your stationery stash!
* **Go all out:** A maximalist square. Break out your supplies and go all out! For me, that might look like writing a letter where I decorate the envelope and card with stickers and washi, use different colored pens for each page, and pick out some extras to send along.
* **Sticker bomb something:** Cover something in stickers. This could be a card, a journal spread, your water bottle, your laptop…anything goes.
* **Do a stationery inventory:** For this square, you’d take stock of your collection and document what you have (list and/or pictures—pictures encouraged!). This is common in the makeup panning community where people will line up all their supplies, sort them, and often make spreadsheets to track things. You’re welcome to do a full or partial inventory. For example, I did an inventory of all my boxed cards at the beginning of the year and have been posting monthly updates on using them.

A thousand Thank Yous, shining bright,

u/Destalena’s reached a dazzling height.

Now an Emerald Flair begins to glow,

A green‑lit mark of the kindness they show.

So here’s to u/Destalena, shining through,

With 1000 reasons we’re grateful too.

May this new flair glow bold and rare,

An emerald crown they proudly wear.

(Thanks for the poem, u/MonetMonkey!)
