Materials Required

Empty cardboard tube or any type of plastic container
Thin Cardboard
Patterned paper / Cloth of your choice
Glue
2 or 3 Pencils

Roll the paper in the shape of a cylinder with the front side inside. Apply glue on the back side of the pattern cylinder. Carefully slot into the inside of the pot, pressing it around the inside walls of the pot. Cut darts on the excess paper at the top and glue them down to the outside one by one. Take the other piece of pattern paper and stick it to the outside so that the edge is level with the top of the pot. Once again cut the darts into the excess length at the bottom and glue them onto the base.

Now trace the base of the pot on the thin cardboard and cut out a circle slightly smaller. Glue on patterned paper on both sides of this circle and drop it inside the pot as base. Cut out another circle from the pattern paper and glue it on the outside base. Now your pencil pot is ready for use.
