Rachel from Lines Across has lots of good ideas on her blog. This simple but why-didn’t-I-think-of-that project would be great for whatever decor you have going on. White is useful but why not make a pencil or pen holder perfect for YOUR desk? Make it colourful, house shaped or fruit shaped.
If you have a good wad of scrap clay you can do this with oven clay. I would use an aluminum foil ball, not too compressed, for the inside so that you don’t need to bake for ever. Pencils will push down into aluminum just fine.
Looking for air-drying clay? We highly recommend Das Air dry clay, we have been using this product for over 30 years. Check out their Das White Air drying clay and their Terracotta Air drying clay version for a natural pottery feel. For larger crafts we recommend buying your air drying clay in bulk
