Try gifting them some stationary, they will get the message, it would be more polite to do so, if they still don't get the message, it means you need to be more blunt and tell that it is impolite on their part to use your stationary without informing you but tell them that you don't mind them using it anyway. If they stop using it, well and good, if not, cnce, they start, informing you, you may want to put conditions that they should give you an hour's notice and keep increasing the number of hours they need to inform you in advance, you can send an email to them in a funny and friendly way. :-)

If still they don't get the message. I suggest you borrow their stationary on a regular basis and ask them to pay for your stationary as a last resort. If that doesn't succeed, tell them that you had a nervous breakdown in your dreams because someone stole your stationary. Good luck, keep us informed.

First, Discuss openly with the person and tell him/her you don't like the behavior and Don't be arrogant or unkind to exert your power, just Minimize your emotional communication with him/her, with time he/she’ll suddenly notice/learn the difference between friendship,jokes and work with him/her and perhaps he/she will gradually change the character and start seeking your permission to use your stationeries..

It is not a big thing to tell ..... simply talk to the person who is using your stationary  without your permission.

Just be polite while you are complaining about the situation .

Start using their stationary and  things. they defiantly they don't like this act , if they ask you to stop using their things , so be a politician.

There is always a mature and professional way to everything.

I would say don't make it an issue as it is an ignorable kind of issue but if it irritates then ask each of your coworker not to use your stationary as it irritates you by nature as politely as possible and separately and individualy, because it is not good to say to one infront of other

Here , The Question Is ? Why They are Using your stationary . May you have provide less stationary that is not enough or either your stationary have more Quality as compared to them.

Coworkers goal to complete the work that why they use any thing which is front of them , Team leader have to realize that you feel not good when they use your stationary, through poster, gesture,  etc
