Pencil heaven by craftymeg

Pencil heaven

After accidentally coming across a handmade pencil drawer unit on U tube (pencil drawers in search bar on utube brings it up) I fell in love with the amount of storage the lucky lady’s husband had made her, 15 trays in all!! I showed my lovely hubby the video and begged him to make me one. He’s not a joiner but is very practical and can turn his hand to most things. A week later this is the finished result, a case that will hold 600 plus pencils. I love it, mine is a cheaper version than on U Tube, I wouldn’t like to guess the price of the original all I know is mine cost enough, now I am going to fill 12 of the 15 trays with my pencils. I have a few spare drawers for any others pencils I might be tempted to splash out on but I think I have spent enough for now.

He is a skilled craftsman to make this so beautifully! Why do you need 600 pencils though?

Wow. Can you ever use that many . But like we say: Beter mee dan om verlegen = +/- Better to much than to less

You have a very talented hubby. I like the use of different wood (or wood-tint) for the front of the drawers.
