Make Pencil Holder
Materials Required:
Suitable food container
Bundle of paper to go around the tube
Glue, scissors, ruler, pencil
Rubber stamps and inks
Paint, glitter glue and other embellishments as required.
How to make it:
Measure the paper so that it fits around the tube. If the tube has a removable base, cut the paper so that it is a little longer than the base. The paper can therefore be tucked inside as the base is replaced and this will give a neat edge.
Cut the paper to size as required, ensuring that you have enough paper for a small overlap when it is wrapped around the tube. Rubber stamp the paper as required.
An all over design works well, however other options include stamping a design around the top of the paper or stamping a single feature image in the center.
Add glue to the edges of the paper and carefully wrap the paper around the tube. Leave to dry.
Finish the pencil holder as required. Stamp the rubber in a piece of complementary colored paper and added this to the inside of the tube to give the pencil holder a neat finish.
Add a row of glitter glue dots around the top and base of the pencil holder. To finish the it stamp the rubber with some flowers and cut these out to add to the pencil holder as embellishments.
