Marker/Pen Storage Idea

Looking for some functional, cheap, and cute storage ideas for pens, markers, crayons, pencils, etc?

I've got just the idea for you. && It will only cost you 3 bucks!

You will need:
Glue Gun
(6) Lanterns from Michael's on clearance for just 50 cents each!
Pliers

The "Lanterns" Which look more like canisters or tins to me come with a handle on them. You will need to use a pliers to remove the handles.

I did mine Three on bottom, two in middle, and one on top. But if you wanted more you could add more.

I simply glued the touching lanterns together, making a pyramid shape and There ya have it-A beautiful, functional, and cheap storage solution.
