Most practical pencil case designs only consists of a cloth pouch with a zipper for secure storage, but the Big Pencil Case from Staples includes that and so much more.
The inventive pencil case was developed by students for students, as part of the brand's Designed by Students collection. As well as just being a whimsical pencil-shaped writing utensil case, the school supply provides students with a functional highlighter, eraser and pencil sharpener in one.
Although the design is already multipurpose enough, the highlighter tip of the pencil case can also be removed and replaced with other writing attachments that are sold separately. In addition to being purely fun, this practical pencil case cuts down on some of the supplies that would otherwise be added to a back to school shopping list.
