I made this with pvc pipes,my son is a plumber and this was left over scrap from a job he did,,so it was free! I used my scrapbook paper to decorate and used mod podge to adhere the paper to the pipes.I then used hot glue to glue it all together.I made a bigge one years back,you can see it in the back ground of the picture,,that one holds larger markers etc. I like getting the pens out of a drawer and up on my counter where I can see them better,more organized also. Thanks for letting me share!

You can purchase pipes at a home improvement tore,they will cut it also.BUT,,having a plumber in the family is a blessing in many ways!LOL

What a clever and pretty idea. TFS

Great idea and love the papers.

This is great. You can also use varying tube/pipe sizes. Also, aluminum foil cardboards can be used.

* Your kids can also a mini-version of these. another variation is stair-stepped and placed vertically. Verticals can splash on tassels and laces.

Great idea you could also use the tube cans from pringles also.

That is so cool and it is really worth.
