This is a Recycled craft. In this craft, you can re-use old popsicle sticks, a toilet paper roll (paper toilet roll tube) or a ribbon roll.
WHAT YOU WILL NEED:
- Craft Sticks or Popsicle sticks or ice cream sticks
- Pistachio Shells
- Paint brush
- Desired color Paints.
- Cardboard roll from inside of toilet paper (toilet roll tube).
- Craft Glue
- Decorative Scissors
- A piece of thick Cardboard for base.
DIRECTION:
- Cut a square piece of cardboard with your decorative scissor to make the base of the pen holder.
- Attach one end of the toilet roll tube to the cardboard square with a little glue to make base for the pen holder (to close it off). Allow it to dry.
- If you want, paint the craft sticks whatever color you like. Let them dry. You can also leave the craft sticks in its natural color.
- Apply glue to one side of the Popsicle stick and attach it to the toilet roll vertically; repeat until the roll is fully covered by the sticks.
- You can use Glue stick to make it more firm. It should be strong enough to hold lots of pen and pencils.
- Leave to dry.
- You can use it as a vase for fake flowers or a pencil holder.
- Glue some paper flowers or butterflies or any shape to the outside of the Popsicle sticks pen holder to to make it more beautiful. I decorated my Popsicle Sticks Pen Holder with painted Pistachio Shells.
