Desk Organizer

Crayola® Crayon desk organizers are the perfect way to add color to an office. Kids enjoy making hand-crafted accessories and using or giving them as gifts.

1. With Crayola® Scissors, cut recycled cardboard rolls into at least three pieces, high enough to hold pens and scissors.

2. Cover your work surface with recycled newspaper.

3. Use Crayola® School Glue to attach the tubes together to create a sturdy structure. Let the tubes dry.

4. Glue Crayola® Crayons to the outside of your tube structure. Ask an adult to use a knife safely to cut any crayons for a better fit. You may need to glue a few crayons at a time and allow them to dry before turning the structure and gluing on more crayons.

Adult supervision is required for any arts & crafts project.

Adult Assistance is required for this arts & crafts project.

Recycled Cardboard Tubes—Use paper towel tubes, gift-wrap tubes, or long cardboard tubes that can be cut to any length. Health professionals caution against using recycled toilet paper tubes for arts & crafts projects because of the potential fecal contamination.

Scissors—ATTENTION: The cutting edges of scissors are sharp and care should be taken whenever cutting or handling. Blunt-tip scissors should be used only by children 4 years and older. Pointed-tip scissors should be used only by children 6 years and older.
