It&#039;s an elastic band that slides over the cover. It&#039;s made from a piece of 3&quot; elastic cord that goes top to bottom and a piece of 2&quot; elastic cord that goes left to right. I got at the fabric store. I pinned the tools in place and sewed it on my home machine. Cost, about $5.<\/div>\n<div class=\"txt\">\n\t&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div class=\"txt\">\n\t1. Open the cover and wrap the 3&quot; elastic around it top to bottom.<br \/>\n\t2. Stretch it so it&#039;s tight before you mark it to cut.<br \/>\n\t3. Cut it and stitch the ends together on you sewing machine using black thread.<br \/>\n\t4. Since the ends of the fabric fray when it&#039;s cut, take a lighted match and singe the ends of the frayed thread to stop any more misreading. Be careful and don&#039;t burn yourself.<br \/>\n\t5. Slide the stitched loop over the cover for a snug fit. If not repeat the process till it&#039;s snug and won&#039;t slide off.<br \/>\n\t6. Now cut the 2&quot; elastic to wrap around the cover from spine to inside cover. What I did was place one of the writing tools on the cover and wrapped the elastic around it snuggly and measured that. Multiplied it by 4 and I got my semi accurate measurement. You&#039;ll have to play with this for a while to get it right. I added about an inch so I wouldn&#039;t be short.<br \/>\n\t7. Stitch the end of the 2&quot; to the inside of the 3&quot; and pin the elastic over each tool as you work your way from left to right. Make sure they are snug enough to slide the tools in and out. I stitched each one before moving on to the next one.<br \/>\n\t8. After you finished with the tool holders, wrap the 2&quot; around to the inside cover and trim off the excess at the edge of the 3&quot;. Now stitch and your done.<br \/>\n\t9. Slide your finished holder over the cover and make sure everything fits snug. That should do it.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I got tired of trying to find my pen and pencil so I decided to make an elastic sleeve to hold the writing tools.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":216742,"featured_media":140300,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[517],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v15.2.1 -
