A desktop storage device is provided comprising an elongated platform element adapted to be inserted and retained within an elongated container. The elongated platform element includes a lower platform upon which said pens, pencils and similar elongated objects rest, and an upper platform connected to the lower platform by means of an elongated connecting member. Disposed within the upper platform is at least one aperture, said aperture serving to allow the pens or pencils to be inserted therethrough, and further allowing the user to grasp the elongated platform in order to slide it out of the container. The elongated platform element is adapted to be inserted into and securely retained within the container. Pens and pencils may be inserted through the aperture in the upper platform, and thereupon come to rest on the lower platform, being bound by the interior surface of the container. In order to receive said pens, pencils and the like, the elongated platform element is withdrawn from the container by means of grasping the aperture, thereby exposing the items stored within the container. In the preferred embodiment, the desktop storage device is composed of a foam rubber-type material, which material provides the storage device some flexibility and protection from everyday wear and tear.

1. A desktop storage device for receiving and retaining elongated desktop items, said storage device comprising: an elongated platform element for receiving said elongated desktop items including an upper platform and a lower platform connected by a connecting member; an elongated container havi
1. A desktop storage device for receiving and retaining elongated desktop items, said storage device comprising: an elongated platform element for receiving said elongated desktop items including an upper platform and a lower platform connected by a connecting member; an elongated container having an opening thereto, said opening providing access to a cavity within said elongated container, wherein said opening corresponds in terms of size and shape to said lower platform, and further wherein said cavity is at least as long as said elongated platform element, such that said elongated platform element may be slidably inserted and retained within said elongated container so as to enclose said elongated platform and thereby retain said elongated desktop items within said cavity, said container further including an upper portion defining said opening said upper portion having a shoulder situated immediately adjacent to said opening, wherein the diameter of said upper platform is substantially the same as the diameter of said shoulder such that said upper platform fits within said shoulder. 2. The desktop storage device of claim 1, wherein said desktop storage device is composed of a material adapted to receive pin-type securing devices without damaging said organizer and said desktop items. 3. The desktop storage device of claim 2, wherein said material is foam rubber. 4. The desktop storage device of claim 1, wherein said desktop storage device is cylindrical in shape. 5. The desktop storage device of claim 1, wherein said container is cylindrical in shape and said upper platform and said lower platform are circular in shape, said container including an inner surface and an outer surface, wherein the diameter of said lower platform is substantially the same as the diameter of said opening such that said lower platform slidably engages said inner surface when said elongated platform member is inserted within said container. 6. The desktop storage device of claim 5, wherein the diameter of said upper platform is substantially the same as the diameter of said lower platform. 7. The desktop storage device of claim 5, wherein the diameter of said upper platform is larger than the diameter of said lower platform. 8. The desktop storage device of claim 1, said upper platform further including at least one aperture adapted to allow passage of said elongated desktop items therethrough. 9. A desktop storage device for receiving and retaining elongated desktop items, said storage device being composed of a semi-rigid, yet flexible materials and comprising: an elongated platform element for receiving said elongated desktop items including an upper platform including at least one aperture adapted to allow passage of said elongated desktop items therethrough, and a lower platform connected by a connecting member, said upper platform and said lower platform being circular in shape; a cylindrical elongated container having an opening thereto, said opening providing access to a cavity within said elongated container, wherein said opening corresponds in terms of size and shape to said lower platform, and further wherein said cavity is at least as long as said elongated platform element, such that said elongated platform element may be slidably inserted and retained within said cylindrical elongated container having an inner surface and an outer surface, and further having an upper portion having a shoulder therein, wherein the diameter of said lower platform is substantially the same as the diameter of said opening such that said lower platform slidably engages said inner surface when said elongated platform member is inserted within said container, and further wherein the diameter of said upper platform is substantially the same as the diameter of said shoulder such that said upper platform fits within said shoulder so as to enclose said elongated platform and thereby retain said elongated desktop items within said cavity.
