When it comes to keeping pipe cleaners tight together, I usually just take one out of the bundle and wrap and twist it around the rest. It works, but it isn't going to win any points for style — and when tossed into a suitcase or carry-on it still usually ends with half the pipe cleaners getting bent. For those more particular about presentation, and who prefer to keep things neat as can be, there is, of course, the pipe cleaner holder.

And for those who want their whole kit to be as snazzy and well-made as the pipes they carry, your not likely to find a pipe cleaner holder on par in either quality with those made by Claudio Alberi — even in as simple an accessory as this, the leather is beautiful, the stitching is tight and neat, and it is offered in spectrum of colors to suit personal tastes.
