Having a pencil case is essential if you’re a student, someone who enjoys being creative or just in case for everyday occasions. But it doesn’t have to be particularly fancy. I put together a list of pencil case items that I consider to be essential and use daily. These products can be interchanged, although there are staples. I’d start with one pencil case. The more battered the better. It looks like I’m using it instead of only looking at it. It doesn’t matter if it’s ten years old, it’s in my tool box for a reason. Colored pencils vary from brand to brand for different technical skills – I store mine in a pencil roll, but I’ve had them in their original case as well. Graphite pencils for writing, drawing and sketching. Again, there’s a sea of pencils, but the most important thing about a pencil is its graphite core. A dust-free eraser or kneaded eraser for drawing and a good sharpener. Biro pens for making notes. Highlighter markers and black markers of medium size to sketch ideas. And that’s it. A pencil case filled with essentials to learn one’s craft.
