It’s incredibly easy to make your own Pen and Pencil storage for your craft room or your desk. You can even create a faux resin look using acrylic storage and clay nail art slices.

Pen and Pencil Storage for Craft Room

These nail art slices are also often used in making slime.  I use these nail art fruit slices for a variety of crafts, including DIY keychains. You can also use the clay slices to decorate pumpkins, mason jars, vases and more. If you’re looking for fun and colorful craft room storage for your pens and pencils, this craft is for you.

Directions for DIY Pen or Colored Pencil Container

1. Paint on the Glitter

Start by adding the glitter paint directly to the acrylic pen holder using a paint brush.

2. First Color

Start with your first color fruit slice and add a partial rainbow to the acrylic container.

3. Continue Your Pattern

If you need to, you can add more glitter paint before adding more fruit slice colors.

4. Finish the Design

Once you have the design to your liking you can add additional glitter paint around the design for more sparkle.

5. No Extra Sealing Required

There’s no need to seal the finished design as the glitter paint keeps a strong hold on the clay slices.

6. Add Your Pens and Pencils

Add your favorite pens and pencils to your finished DIY Pen holder.
