Devices and kits for organizing, storing, and dispensing crayons are described herein. The crayon storing and dispensing device(s) described herein allow a user to access a crayon located at any retaining/dispensing holder by rotation of one or more components of the crayon storing and dispensing device(s). In accordance to aspects herein, the retaining/dispensing holders of the crayon storing and dispensing device(s) are arranged in one or more concentric rows of retaining/dispensing holders such that rotation of the crayon storing and dispensing device gives access to different crayons located at different positions.

An exemplary slot-securable point marking tool comprises a first arm extending longitudinally from a base end to a guide leading edge, and a second arm extending longitudinally from the base end to an insertion guide lip. A tool mouth is defined between the guide leading edge and the insertion guide lip. A tool axis extends from the base end to the tool mouth. A point axis is defined orthogonally to the tool axis. The tool mouth is movable in a direction parallel to the point axis between a securement configuration and an expanded configuration. The tool mouth is resiliently biased toward the securement configuration. The second arm includes at least one slot alignment protuberance extending toward the first arm in a direction parallel to the point axis. The second arm includes a marking point element extending along the point axis oppositely of the at least one slot alignment protuberance.

A marking apparatus facilitates blind mounting of an object to a mounting surface in a desired alignment using the object as an alignment template. One end of the apparatus is configured to be affixed to a mounting slot or edge of the object, then the other end used to mark the appropriate supporting fastener location on the mounting surface. The object's mounting slots or edges may be represented by mounting hardware components that are flush with, recessed in, or protruding from the local planar surface of the object. To accommodate a broad variety of mounting conditions and mounting hardware, certain embodiments of the apparatus may include selectively adjustable or interchangeable head adapters, distinct head and retention configurations and/or a hardware relief channel A channel adapter is disclosed for use with embodiments of the apparatus having a hardware relief channel. Embodiments of a slot-securable point marking tool are also disclosed.

An applicator device for a product, said applicator device comprising a housing, a product carriage, for supporting the product, that is mobile within the housing between an extended state and a retracted position, and a retraction mechanism configured to move the product carriage into the retracted position after a predetermined period of time in the extended state. A glue stick comprising said applicator device and an adhesive product.

A marker ensemble includes a multi-purpose marking tool and a sharpener. The marking tool has a shell, retention sleeve, compression spring, control tab, reversible disk holder, and cap. The shell has an exit opening, an access opening with a mounting socket, and a medially located lateral control slot through which the control tab extends. The retention sleeve has a collet, compressed by the compression spring and uncompressed by the control tab. The disk holder has a body with a retention ridge and a pair of lugs extending from each end to retain a marking disk. One marking disk has a circular periphery and the other marking disk has a toothed periphery. The cap is mounted upon either end. The sharpener includes a blade with a sharpened edge secured to a body with an upper surface, a peripheral surface with a shoulder, waist, and hip, and a lower surface.
