Intention

In creating something that would be hold or contain, I started thinking about what I could really use in my everyday life. My initial brainstorming resulted in a couple different ideas (first image below).

From a banana holder (my bananas always go bad before I eat them because I always tuck them away into a corner of my shelf), a bedside table holder (my devices, wallet, and keys are often very hard to find in the morning), and a new Apple pencil holder.

I went with the Apple pencil holder because of my new Apple pencil grip. I had put on a grip because my hand had begun to hurt after hours of using the smooth and slick pencil each day, but with the grip the pencil no longer fit in the holder that came with my iPad case. I came up with a fix that consisted of a hair tie looped around the original magnetic holder (second image below).

Yep, could use some improvement.
