Abstract

The present invention relates to a cloth bag for storing a younger student's school supplies; i.e., crayons, such items to be carried by the student from classroom to home and vice versa so that the bag of the present invention contemplates use of a strap attached to the top thereof. Within the school room, the bag is used in conjunction with a desk-chair which includes a chair having a seat and a back while the desk includes a planar writing board attached to any upright column located near the front edge of the chair. The bag can be hung at one side of the chair using end of a rod also located so the top of the bag is adjacent to the strap. The rod length is slightly longer than the seat depth. Result: the bag can be wedged between support members of the desk-chair, but easily "unwedged" for transport of the bag (and contents) to another location without disassembly.
