Pencils should be protected from damage and breakage. A storage tin can keep them separated and covered. It also serves another purpose - it keeps them visible so that you can easily find the pencil you need. A pencil wrap serves a similar purpose and may be preferable for keeping your pencils sorted.
There are many other items that are handy for art storage. An acrylic case not only stores your acrylic paints - it also helps you to have an overview of your materials so that you always know what you have on hand.
When putting your portfolio together, a folio bag keeps your paintings protected and easy to carry. Since these are samples of your best work, it's important that you do all you can to take care of them.
