Pretty Pencil Holder

Floral motifs cut from decorative papers beautify this set of pencils and holder -- a perfect gift for Mom to take to the office or crafting station.

What You Need
  • Ceramic toothbrush holder
  • Scissors
  • Decorative paper with flower pattern
  • Thick, white crafting glue
  • Paintbrush
  • Glass paint

How to Make It
  1. Wash and dry a purchased ceramic toothbrush holder. Choose a solid color paint that will coordinate with the decorative papers used in step 2.
  2. Using scissors, cut out flowers or other printed images from scraps of pretty paper and attach to the holder with thick white crafts glue.
  3. Cut decorative paper to cover each pencil, allowing a slight overlap. Glue the paper around each pencil.
  4. Dip the handle of a paintbrush into a similar color of glass paint and dot the center of each flower. Place dots in groups of three between the flowers. Let the paint dry.
