A craft stick pencil holder is a useful desk accessory that is easy to make and customize.

Start with an empty can or cardboard tube. Glue craft sticks vertically around the outside until the container is fully covered. Once the glue dries paint or decorate the holder as desired.

You can add labels patterns or even wrap twine around the holder for a rustic look. This project is perfect for organizing pens brushes scissors and other small tools.

It is especially popular for back to school crafts and teacher gifts.
