Pencil stand design. DIY stand for pens and pencils. Pencil holders that are pleasing to the eye and carefully store pencils

A beautiful and stylish DIY pencil stand will not only decorate your desk at home, it is a great opportunity to show your originality at work. There are many ways to make a stand for pens and pencils, but it is best to use wood, because... it will show your seriousness. This is an inexpensive, plastic and durable material that can be beautifully decorated. In addition, the work does not require many tools and materials. It is quite possible to make a stand for pens with your own hands and from waste carpentry or scrap materials.

Option with solid base

The easiest way to make a pencil stand with your own hands is to make it from a single piece of wood. For such work, you only need the workpiece itself, a drill, a drill of the appropriate diameter, and sandpaper. Since the product itself is small, it can be sanded by hand.

First you need to draw markings on the side on which the holes for pencils will be located. This can be done with a simple ruler and pencil. It is important to use a pencil, since traces of it can then be easily removed using sandpaper when sanding the product.

It is not necessary to use a wooden cube for the stand; it can be a parallelepiped, a round unprocessed piece of wood cleared of bark; you can even take as a basis a wooden toy or figurine that you want to remake.

Then we simply drill holes, grind the product, removing all irregularities, burrs and other flaws, and then simply arrange the pencils. If desired, you can tint the product and varnish it to give it a more respectable look.

The only requirement is that the workpiece has one flat side so that the pencil stands are stable and do not fall at the most inopportune moment. Otherwise, there are no limits to your imagination.

Options from separate parts

It will be more difficult to make a pen stand with your own hands from individual pieces of wood. To do this, you will need small planks or pieces of plywood (necessarily with a well-defined texture). Next, we simply cut pieces of the required size and glue a box from them.

Since the operational load on this stationery is small, it is enough to simply make small grooves on the sides and use good glue. It is not advisable to use self-tapping screws or nails, as they will significantly spoil the appearance of the craft; it will have to be further decorated.

If you use minimal tinting for wood, then such stationery as a stand for pens and pencils made of wood will look very stylish and beautiful on your desktop. In addition, it has much greater stability than options made from lightweight materials. Therefore, your office or work desk will always be in order.

Probably the most difficult way to make a pencil stand is to glue it yourself from small pieces. But this wooden pencil holder looks very beautiful and stylish.

To work, you will need approximately identical blanks, of such a size that your accessory has the appropriate capacity. In addition, it will take quite a lot of time and patience to ensure that the sample you make looks beautiful.

There is nothing complicated in the work itself; in addition to the bars, you only need glue and a wooden plank as a base. Next, the wooden blocks are simply glued to each other using the well method. You can even use popsicle sticks as bars, because only the space between their rows depends on the thickness of the bar itself.

These are not all the ways to make a pencil holder. You can come up with your own unique design, or draw a drawing according to which you will make the product. In addition, you can decorate products in a wide variety of ways, including burning or carving on wood. A modern stationery will not surprise anyone, but a beautiful, unique, one-of-a-kind pencil holder will perfectly express your originality and spontaneity. Plus, it makes a great gift for any office worker.

Order on the desktop usually does not last long for either children or adults. Proper organization of space and workplace will help adults organize the work process more effectively and teach children to be collected and orderly. A glass for pens and pencils will help organize your writing utensils.

How to store writing instruments

To keep your desk tidy, you need to purchase or make a glass holder for pens, pencils, scissors and other office supplies. This stand allows you to keep the necessary office supplies nearby, rather than looking for them in drawers or on shelves. A hand-made glass for pens and pencils will appeal to children and will motivate them to keep their work area in order. There are many different ideas on how to make such a stand yourself. Parents just have to decide on the material and model and bring it to life together with their child. By the way, not everyone knows what the glass for pencils and pens is called. Many people call it just “glass”, but a more appropriate name would be “pencil case” or “desktop organizer for office supplies”.

How to make it yourself

It’s not difficult to make a glass for pens and pencils with your own hands. For production, you can use a wide variety of unexpected decor ideas and materials. Most of these crafts will not take much time and are not financially expensive, because it is interesting to decorate a glass with materials that are almost always available in many homes. A pencil holder can be made from plastic tubes (plumbing), tin cans, toilet paper rolls, wood, glass jars, and flower pots. Of course, the appearance of a tin can or paper tube is not very attractive; the raw materials are only blanks and need to be decorated.

What you will need

To create a glass organizer you will need:

  • source materials (cans, bushings, material chosen for decoration);
  • transparent glue;
  • scissors;
  • glue gun;
  • threads, needles;
  • ruler.

Some materials may also require additional tools.

Wooden pencil holder

You can make a glass for pens and pencils yourself from natural wood. To do this, you will need a small wooden frame, in which the internal wood should be removed (with a chisel), giving the appearance of a glass. The preparation turns out to be interesting and original. It does not need unnecessary decor, since wood itself is an interesting natural finishing material. You can also use tree bark and cover a tin or glass jar with it. Such a pencil holder will also look very unusual and natural.

Decorating a tin can

You can make a glass for pens and pencils yourself using tin cans from coffee drinks and preserves. This material is tough, durable, and the decor fits easily and adheres well.

  • Knitted cover - from threads using the simplest knitting pattern you can make a cover that will perfectly decorate a brutal tin can. For ease of use, so that the bundle does not fidget, it can be glued to the jar.
  • Rope (twine) is another interesting way to decorate a glass for writing instruments. To do this, we wrap the rope or twine around a jar pre-lubricated with transparent glue (you can use a glue gun). In this case, the threads should be tightly joined so that they adjoin each other without gaps. To give the finished look, you can decorate the product with a bow.

  • Fabric - cut a rectangle from thick fabric that encircles the diameter of the jar. Then sew the inside and put it on the jar. If desired, you can diversify the decor by gluing beads, stones, bows. These pencil holders in a vintage style, covered with fabric in combination with lace and satin ribbon, look very impressive.
  • Burlap - a rough material combined with a strip of linen or chintz fabric and lace will make a tin can a cute decoration for the table and room. In this case, it is better to glue the burlap to the can. And then decorate.
  • Wallpaper, self-adhesive, scrap paper - to give the look of a tin can, you can use any pieces of wallpaper, self-adhesive film and scrapbooking paper. If the surface of the can is corrugated, the pattern may become somewhat crumpled, so it is better to choose smooth tin cans to make a glass for pencils and pens with your own hands.

Other unusual options

Also interesting ideas are:

  1. Sleeves - don't rush to throw away paper towel and toilet paper tubes. They are perfect for storing pencils and pens on your desk. Decoration options can be different: they can be painted, painted or covered with corrugated paper.
  2. PVC pipes - you can make an entire organizer from plumbing pipes by gluing several pre-cut sleeves onto a board. Before this, they can be decorated with fabric, beautiful stones or spray painted.
  3. From pencils - an interesting idea is to decorate a jar or sleeve with colored pencils. They should all be equal to the height of the jar. Each pencil should be glued vertically to the jar, pressing tightly to the previous one. You can tie a ribbon around it.

As you can see, anyone can make a glass for pens and pencils if they wish, and the ideas can be very diverse. A homemade stationery cup will save money and be a cute little thing to help keep things organized.

On a strip of cardboard for the outer side surface of the pencil holder, we mark the place of gluing, make cuts along the entire length of the strip of cardboard to glue the side wall to the bottom.


2. You can decorate the pencil holder with applique now or after gluing, depending on the decor.


3. We roll up the strip of cardboard for the outer side surface and glue it together (spread glue on the shaded part). You can also fasten with tape from the inside or use a stapler.
We bend the cuts.


4. We cut out two inner and one outer parts of the bottom (the diameter of the outer part is 2 - 3 mm larger).


5. We spread the inner part of the bottom around the perimeter with glue and glue it to the cuts (we bring it inside diagonally).
Glue the outer part of the bottom. We cut off the excess.


6. We cut out the inner part of the side surface of the pencil holder (the height is 2-3 mm less than the outer part, and the length is equal to the length of the cardboard sheet).


7. We roll the inner part of the side surface of the pencil holder into a tube with the colored surface inward and insert it, securing it with glue (you can insert another inner part to make the walls thicker).
We insert the second circle inside for the bottom with the colored surface facing up (you don’t have to glue it and you can always change it).


8. Finish, if necessary, decorating the pencil holder.
The following pencil holders differ from the red one only in decoration.

Yellow pencil holder

Pencils can live together in such pencil holders



My pencil is bored:
- Why won’t you give me the paper?
And I stand without work,
But he could create a landscape!
Don't you need a portrait?
Yes, such a thing - which doesn’t exist!
Contact me, don't be shy,
Well, listen to my advice!
I can build a house
He will be next to the pond,
Here is the window, here is the porch,
It will be comfortable to live in it!
And draws with a pencil:
For me - a portrait, for you - a landscape,
And he’s building a house for someone,
Maybe this house is yours!

You have to use a variety of pens and pencils everywhere: at school, at university, in the office, at home. Often, all kinds of felt-tip pens are added to the most popular stationery products and How to organize a workspace for a child and an adult? You can, of course, buy special cups and pockets for such little things in the store, however, homemade things will bring a special note of comfort and style to the interior of a home room or office. People make amazing, and most importantly, unique things with their own hands. Why don't you try it too? Perhaps some of the ideas below will come in handy.

Country chic

A unique item for organizing the storage of stationery can be made from a simple piece of wood. To do this, you don’t even need to have specific skills or have extensive experience working with the material. Just find a piece of wood that suits your shape and size, and drill as many identical holes in it as you need. Sand the edges with sandpaper. That's all - the pencil stand, made with your own hands from scrap materials, is ready.

Second life of garbage

In Europe and the USA, an innovative trend in handicrafts has become widespread - creating crafts from all kinds of garbage and waste. And indeed: if you look closely, many things that are regularly thrown away can be easily adapted to practical needs. A great example is cardboard tubes used for toilet paper and paper towels. These are ready-made parts waiting for their finest hour. This tube of suitable diameter makes an excellent pencil holder. With your own hands you can create not just a useful thing and interior decoration, but also a nice gift for a friend. Just grab a paper towel tube, a small piece of thick cardboard, brightly colored yarn, felt, tape and glue. Measure the diameter of the tube opening and cut out a corresponding circle from cardboard. Glue the bottom of the cup to the base using clear tape and decorate it with a piece of felt. Then begin winding yarn around the cup, alternating different colors as desired. Glue it with regular glue. Upon completion of the work, decorate the item with any rhinestones, beads, or felt appliqués. You have now created a stylish pencil holder with your own hands.

Original children's craft

Even a child can make a simple stand for all kinds of stationery. If one of the parents works in an office, such a craft will be a cute and touching gift from a son or daughter.

The basis of the work will be any unnecessary metal can. If you choose to use a paint or canned food can, make sure the sharp edges are properly dulled. Take some nice wrapping paper or a piece of fabric and carefully wrap it around the metal base. The only thing left to do is decoration - you can decorate the gift in any way. By adding your loved one's initials to the decor, everyone can see that the DIY pencil holder was made as a gift. Similarly, creative people add personality to glass jars used for canned vegetables or fruits.

Flight of fancy

In fact, you can adapt almost any thing to store office supplies. If you regularly use only a couple of pencils and a couple of pens, and you are not interested in how to make a pencil holder with your own hands from scrap materials, take an ordinary clothes brush and try sticking a pencil or felt-tip pen into the bristles. You'll be surprised how firmly the bristles of such a humble household item can hold office supplies. Even small scissors can be stuck into such a “stand”.

Do you want to create a truly unique item? Use your imagination - and it’s quite possible that you yourself will be able to give recommendations and share amazing ideas on the topic of making practical things.
