Denise, you are such an inspiration to all of us! I’m so glad you have shown the need and expressed the importance of school supplies. So far I have packed 136 boxes and and and 110 full size pencil pouches and still going. I’m blessed and love to bless others too! Thank you again.

[@drogers]

Thank you Nancy for those especially kind words and for packing school supplies! Wow! It sounds like you are on a roll! What a blessing those pouches will be! I’m always so happy to hear about people packing more pencil packs! It is soooo needed! Thank you for watching!

Awesome pencil packs! I love making pencil packs in addition to my shoeboxes. I know these school supplies will make a difference in so many children’s lives! Thanks for sharing to give us more ideas!

[@drogers]

Thanks for watching AND for making pencil packs Joye! I’m so passionate about trying to get school supplies packed for filler! You are right! They can definitely make a difference in these kids’ lives! So I just keep packing! ✏️❤️✏️

You are on a roll with pencil packs this year! I need to catch up! I also like packing themed pencil packs, it's fun! This science themed pencil pack is so much fun! It's gender and age neutral - perfect for the Operation Christmas Child processing center. Love the variety of school supplies and the science themed items. Very cool science paper pads and magnifying glass. Fabulous pencil packs, Denise! Thanks for sharing! 🧑‍🔬👨‍🔬👩‍🔬

Thanks Sharon! Well I do 30 packs a week so I’m always trying to think of new themes! Lol… you know me. The science theme is definitely gender neutral so perfect for filler, right? Thanks for watching! ✏️❤️🖍️❤️

Love your creative mind when you make these. I’m impressed and jealous of how you organize your supplies! Makes it much easier to go in order. The tennis ball container pencil packs you did a video on was the best. Love the red white and blue ones too in the pictures. I could have box lifted that idea in my captain America video I did a few days ago! Great job on these. Such needed items and from the processing center video you showed last year, they go FAST! You should link that video if you film anymore pencil pack videos in the future. The before and after filler bin photos really made us see how much they are needed. TFS my friend!

[@drogers]

These do go really really fast at the PC! Much needed indeed! Those red, white and blue packs also have the erasers to match Ze-best zebra! I can certainly link that video. Maybe this year at the PC I’ll actually show how fast they fly out of the bins! Thanks for watching friend! Happy Saturday! 💕✏️💕

After watching your videos last year I expanded my efforts making a variety of sizes of pencil packs including wow packs. I really enjoy making them.

[@drogers]

That is awesome! I love making them too! They are such a blessing at the PC! Thank you! ❤

[@marieterry625]

Please continue with sharing your great ideas!

[@drogers]

I will! Thanks Marie!🤦🏻‍♀️

[@ששבריבוע]

Thpse are awesome, I always loved science class 🧪🧫⚗️⚖️

[@drogers]

Me too! It was one of my favorite subjects! That and Math!!! 😉

[@maritzacopping3309]

I now prefer those pencil packs better than the mesh ones. Sometimes i pack the pencil pack against the side of the OCC box and bc it is full, it tends to keep all the pencils tight. Plus I really like the texture. Your pencil packs are awesome. The science theme is really cute.

[@drogers]

I’m actually thinking of using these for my boxes next year! I really like them too! I stopped using the mesh ones when so many were raveling. I also love the texture! Not sure why I never saw them before. Thanks for watching Maritza! 💕

[@valswain]

Fantastic! Wish we could all find these in the filler bins at the PC’s where we volunteer 🙂

[@drogers]

I know right!!! And when I do they go soooo fast! ❤️✏️❤️

[@annecornine8469]

Thanx for showing!! Haven't started mine yet...but very soon!!😊

[@drogers]

You are welcome Anne! You still have plenty of time! 🙂

[@LKJagoda]

Absolutely LOVE these!! So pretty and Science inspiring. I have the Oriental Trading items but not the TEMU stickers... I might have to check out Temu at some point afterall. ;)

[@drogers]

I immediately thought of you when I started putting these together! Jesus and science…. Perfect combo! ❤️

[@denise5457]

😍 Love the science touch in these! One day I'll be better organized and will make some pencil pouches with fun themes, but it won't be this year. 😂😂😂 These particular pouches have been fun to use. They pack up so easily.

[@drogers]

Your pencil pouches have been amazing! No theme needed but it’s just really fun for me to do! Today I’m doing “Under the Sea”! Thanks for watching friend! ❤

[@drogers]

It’s another way to keep my brain busy!!!!❤

[@byrdfeed9071]

Denise, you are a pencil pouch queen! I love your creativity to make these pencil packs so much fun for the kids. I really like the pencil cases you got on Amazon. Do you find them to be just as sturdy as the mesh ones we all get? I’m thinking maybe for regular shoeboxes in future when I need.

[@drogers]

Pencil packing queen… I’ll take that! Lol 👸🏼I really like those pencil pouches and they are so reasonable. If you want I can send you a video of one close up! Let me know if you think that will help. Thanks for watching friend! ❤
