This pencil roll is the proper way to organize colored pens, pencils, crayons, or even make-up brushes!
I’m pretty sure most parents can relate to my predicament. My young kids have a lot of art supplies that they bring to school. Every day, without fail, they come home with their coloring materials in complete disarray. At the end of every month, I end up having to buy a new set because their supplies are dwindling.
I realized that the fault is not entirely theirs. Because their colored pens and pencils are just kept in their respective boxes, the boxes disintegrate easily. I should have provided better storage.
Say goodbye to messy art supplies!
