mon{diy}day: pencil holder

A couple weeks ago, I saw this pencil holder on Fly, one of my favorite blogs. Cute, right? Now, I'm not knocking anyone's hustle but $9.50 is $8.50 more than I'd like to spend on a pencil holder *shrug*. So, I decided to make my own. Yes, it's super DIY and I love it! It makes me happy when I see it on my desk.

  3. aw. it came out cute.

    well, this girl makes her living selling pencil cups and other assorted bits of ephemera. so, draw your own pattern, get it printed 100x. take 100 cups, then wrap 100x. you'll quickly see why i charge $9.50 - the "hustle".

    anyway, they're made in USA and designed/drawn by me. They have many fans. : ) And, it seems sure they inspire many, too.
