A modular desktop craft utensils storage unit for storing craft utensils, comprising:
- a bottom wall,
- a top wall, which is spaced in a vertical direction at a distance from the bottom wall, and
- two side walls, each vertically extending in between the bottom wall and the top wall at opposite sides thereof,
- wherein the bottom wall, the top wall and the side walls together define an interior of the storage unit for receiving one or more craft utensils,
- wherein the storage unit further comprises a coupling device, which is configured to interlock with a coupling device of a second storage unit to interconnect the storage unit and the second storage unit to each other,
- wherein one of the bottom wall or the top wall comprises at least one male coupling device, which protrudes from the respective bottom wall or top wall in the vertical direction during use of the storage unit,
- wherein the other one of bottom wall or the top wall comprises at least one female coupling device, which is formed by a recess in the respective bottom wall or top wall,
- wherein the male coupling device of the storage unit is adapted to interlock with the female coupling device of the second storage unit and wherein the female coupling device of the storage unit is adapted to interlock with the male coupling device of a third storage unit in order to prevent horizontal mutual movements of the storage unit with respect to the second storage unit and the third storage unit, and
- wherein the bottom wall, the top wall, and the side walls are made of a plastic material and together form a one piece, unitary structure.
