Functional
It doesn't have to be pretty, just functional. I found a kid's art set, at the thrift store, for $3. The inside had formed liners and some of the cheap art supplies. I pulled out the liner and threw away most of the supplies. I kept the pencils for everyday coloring. I thought I could convert the box into a travel art box/easel.
I add a string, across the lid to hold the paper in place. The Faber Castell Polychromos box fit perfectly. I made a few boxes for the the side and front and made lids to keep everything in it's place. Last, I added a chain to hold the lid up.
I cut some of the cheap colored pencils down, to prop the lid up at different angles.
On the bottom, I added a couple of screws to hold the self for the easel.
Next, I cut a couple of groove in an old, but useable ruler.

Sliding in the easel's, removable shelf.
Looking down on the shelf.
Ready to start drawing.
