#1 Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator Pootles – Small But Awesome Pencil Desktop Holder – Your Versions!
It’s been a long time since I’ve seen one of my tutorials go Viral, but it seems you all LOVED the Small But Awesome Desktop Holder tutorial of a couple of weeks ago.
Within less than 30 minutes, the first version of it appeared in my Public Facebook Group and then over the following days, more and more versions started appearing. I lost count of how many Anna Cox made, I think it was around 15 at the last total!
I loved that Lori created an addition to it by adding an extra pot and making the tray bigger, and her extra pot is perfectly sized to hold our Tear and Tape.
What made me so happy, beyond the many many variations, is just how many were gifted away. Some for Dads for their workshops and garages, there was a spate of them designed and made for New Mummies and everything else you can imagine.
I have 130 photos here to show you, do take the time to open them all up, it’s so worth it.
And thank you ALL for sharing your projects with me. This makes my heart SING!

Well I must say what a really lovely selection Desk top boxes ,
Wow, I said it was an epidemic and indeed it was. It is a small but awesome desk top box as it is amazing how much it actually holds and all in one place. You must be delighted and so proud. I made two, one for me that is shown amongst your gallery of pics and another for my dear friend. Thank you so much.
LOVED this too! Made one and may make some for those who order this month. Great idea and so many color combo possibilities
Wow what fabulous desk top boxes well done every one and to you to SAM for your inspiration you give to all
WOW! is right! You sparked an explosion of inspiration and creativity – brilliant! Now, I have to make a version too:) Thank you!
Sam, These are all great! I have my paper cut and getting ready to put mine together. Would love to know the measurements that Lori used to add the tear n tape pot and the resized tray. Will be make several more for family and friends. Thanks for the great tutorials.
They are all so pretty, i made 2 myself: one for me and one for my daughter who has taken it with her to her uni flat.
Beautiful gallery!!! The ladies have worked in an astonishingly manner. Sam, it was a great tutorial!!! Thanks again.
Sam, I’m planning to make 20 of these to gift to teachers this upcoming school year (filled with office supplies of course). Thank you so very much for sharing your wildly creative projects along with such easy to follow instructions. You make it easy for us look like paper crafting rock stars!
WOWZERS. They are all gorgeous. I do plan to make one also, just have to find some time. Love them all. Thanks Sam for always posting the most gorgeous boxes and bags.
Oh MY! Look at all those beautiful sets! I still want to make these, but haven’t had the chance yet. That sure was a popular project.
So fun to see all the different variations…and what a great way to use the DSP I can’t seem to part with- always in my heart , forever on my desk now! LOL!
These are all fabulous and so inspiring ladies. I would love to have the measurements for the revised version by Lori. Can’t wait to do a few for my friends and one for me too….❤️

I love everyone’s creations! I just tagged you in a post on FB where someone made an “upgrade”. I can’t wait to try my hand at this. My desk is very poorly organized at the moment!
So cute but too bad there are no directions.
Hi Sandra there are. In the post, you’ll see a hyper link written in Blue to the original project I made which then inspired all these versions. Sam x
These are awesome! Thank you for sharing your artistic ideas.
