How to make a fashion pencil holder
Start by choosing the base of your pencil pot: it can be in the shape of a flower, a fish, a circle, a heart or any other shape of your choice. (you will find them at the bottom of this page)
Once you have selected a design, transfer it on cardboard with tracing paper or by drawing freehand.
Then cut it out.
Place it on the felt, trace and cut.
Glue the felt to the base paper with a little glue.
You will now be able to prepare the pencil holder from the roll of toilet paper. You can choose to cover it with felt too (with glue) or if you prefer you can paint it.
Once you have finished decorating the pencil holder and everything is dry, put some glue on the edges of the pot and stick it on the base. After a few minutes you can fill your pen holder!
