To make a pencil box, prepare the following materials:
- cylinder made of cardboard (you can take as a basis a roll of toilet paper or a solid roll of wallpaper);
- jute twine;
- cardboard;
- colored paper;
- a patch of dense fabric (you can velor or velvet to make the pencil box more stable);
- piece of tape;
- decorative button;
- Super glue;
- hammer and nails (if the roll is made of high density cardboard);
- PVA glue.
To do it yourselfstart with the stand. From cardboard (or high-density paper) cut a circle around the diameter of your cylinder, attach it to the cylinder with super-glue to make the bottom of the pencil box. If the cardboard is very high density, do it with a hammer and small cloves.
From colored paper, cut 2 circles with a diameter equal to the cardboard circle. Paste the bottom on the outside and inside of the cylinder.
Next, glue the walls of the cylinder from the inside with colored paper.
To make a pencil box gently, on the outer edge of the bottom we apply a little PVA glue, and on top we put jute twine. When she grabs a little, we begin to glue the cylinder of jute rope, winding it round after round.
Manufacturing process DIY pencils almost completed. It remains to stick a velvet or velor fabric circle on the bottom, and decorate with a ribbon to which a bow is attached.
The final touch - sew the button with a bright thread in the center of the bow.
