  • Oh my gosh, you can never have enough pen holders. Pens seem to multiply and then disappear in my home. Great idea to have a place to put them

  • If the container is metal you could paint it. House paint is fine if you have some left over.
    If it is container made from card, you can draw, paint, even stencil either straight onto it…..or on paper and glue it on when it is dry
