To provide a small article storage unit which can freely and adequately store a small stored article such as stationery that is taken in and out daily.

The small stored article is freely stored in a position out of a group of small cylindrical holes 1 formed at small intervals through a storage support tool 3 which has a protrusion 2 at a base and corresponds to the small stored article. The storage support tool 3 is used to store the small stored article such as a pen by erecting it in the storage support tool. A large-diameter storage support tool can store a glue, a stapler, an eraser tape, a lighter or the like. In addition, the storage support tool is used as a location-designated storage space of a soy-sauce bottle or the like by forming a slight rise of a cylinder.
