Pencil holder with their own hands - easy step by step master classes of improvised materials

A pencil holder is a very necessary thing in the house, where there are children-kindergarteners, schoolchildren and students. Pens, pencils and felt-tip pens, as well as other stationery, need to be stored somewhere. Otherwise, they will forever be lying and even "lying around" in an inappropriate place.

What to make?

Make coasters out of anything you can think of: jars, cardboard, bushings, twigs of trees, old pencils. Suitable decor will decorate any container for office supplies.

From toilet paper tubes

From this discarded material, which many send to the trash cans, make a wonderful thing - a pencil holder.

5. Grommets put with a hot gun on the base.
6. On the first roll glued muzzle caterpillar.

The pencil case is ready. Because it has five storage compartments, you can store pens, colored pencils and felt-tip pens, as well as small rulers, compasses, and erasers.

Dachshund

On the same principle as the caterpillar, make a funny doggie - a dachshund. To create it prepare brown paper, which wrapped sleeves.

Make a cone-shaped, elongated muzzle. Do not forget about the long ears and short legs (glued to the first and last sleeves).

Also glue a black nose and eye on his face (one, because the dog in full-face). At their discretion, add more details of appearance.

After home eating cans, left a lot of iron (tin) cans. From those that are larger, will come out wonderful organizers for storage.

The original organizer for the pencils is ready!

Robot

In the room of a boy, you can make an original robot pencil holder.

The robot can be made up in imagination. Daddy's toolbox will always have the right parts.

From buttons

Another original option for decorating the organizer from a metal can is to glue it with buttons. For this purpose, you take buttons of different sizes and colors (or use a single tone) and decorate the surface of the container with buttons with thermal glue.

Such a thing looks very stylish. Great for the room of a handmade girl.

From glass jars

Everyone will have at least one small glass jar (after jam, for example). If it is not necessary in the economy, it is possible to make an interesting organizer for pens and pencils.

In the technique of decoupage

For a maiden's desk together with your daughter, you can make a wonderful stand for writing devices, decoupage it with napkins.

For the work you will need:

• A glass jar of 0.5 liters;
• A beautiful paper napkin;
• white acrylic paint;
• dishwashing sponge;
• scissors;
• PVA.

Creation process:

1. The jar is washed thoroughly and wiped dry.
2. Using a sponge cut at an angle with a knife, which is dipped in paint, paint the entire glass surface.
3. From a napkin cut (or tear off) the fragments with a pattern and apply it to the jar with a brush and PVA.
4. Allow the product to dry.

If desired, cover with acrylic varnish and decorate with beads, rhinestones or lace.

Decorating with twigs

The natural material makes a great decor. In order to make a beautiful organizer, you need to take:

• thin dry twigs of trees;
• hot glue;
• Pliers (secateurs), jigsaw or saw (to saw the branches).

Step-by-step method of creation:

2. Prepare the twigs: peel and cut a few pieces the height of the container.
3. Vertically glue the entire surface of the jar with branches using a hot gun.

If necessary, add decorations. Glass jars are not recommended to put in a room to small children to avoid breaking the container of glass and cuts on the sharp elements.

Stained Glass .

A very beautiful technique in needlework is painting with stained glass paints. In this style also create a glass organizer. For the basis, glass containers (jars) are used. Special paints and brushes are purchased for the work. Anything can be painted.

In open sources you can always find many examples for sketching. If there is no desire and special skill to draw, you can paint with vertical strips, the space between which is filled with different paint and write in the gaps any words you want (days of the week, months, names, etc.).

From plastic bottles

Containers made of plastic have become a part of our daily life. The planet generates countless amounts of waste from old bottles and bags. If you give bottles a second life, you can at least reduce the amount of trash.

Bunny

To make a pencil holder in the shape of a rabbit, you need to take:

• A plastic bottle of 1.5 liters;
• Acrylic blue, white and black paint;
• sharp scissors or a model knife.

The way to make:

1. First, the container must be washed and wiped dry.
2. With a marker, draw the ears of the hare and the outline of the edge of the future organizer on the bottle.
3. Cut out the outline with scissors or a knife.
4. Using a brush or sponge, dab blue paint on the surface of the plastic. Allow to dry.
5. Detail the image of the bunny: draw a muzzle, eyes, white breast.
6. The inside of the long ears can also be white.
7. Leave to dry, varnish and let dry well.

The organizer is ready! In it stack pens, felt-tip pens and pencils.

Newspaper tube decor

If you cut off the top of a plastic bottle and paste the resulting container with rolled up newspaper or magazine tubes, you get a creative stand, which will look original on any table.

The tubes are twisted with a skewer or thick needle, fixing the edges with glue. And when pasting the surface, reduce the twist to the required length. Decorate at your discretion.

In a crocheted cover.

Organizers, connected by crochet or spit, look original and stylish. Knit as a whole box, and covers for jars and boxes. It is convenient to use removable covers, which, if necessary, can always be removed, washed or replaced with new ones.

For work you will need:

• Multicolored wool or synthetic yarn for knitting;
• needles;
• scissors.

Job description:

1. Knit the necessary fabric, you can the simplest without a pattern, from the front or back stitches and put it on the container (tin, glass or plastic cans / bottles).
2. If you want and have time, on such covers stitch buttons or lightning. In this case, they can be put on containers and easily removed as clothes.

Pouches make not only with needles, but also with crochet. The more complex the pattern and the brighter the colors of the threads, the more original the products will look.

Made of fabric

On the same principle sew covers from fabrics. Popular as an upholstery material is denim. Old jeans make beautiful and practical organizers for storing office supplies.

From pencils

If in the drawers there is a box of old but whole pencils, they can be used to make a bright stand for the same pencils used in work as well as pens and felt-tip pens.

The product is created in the technique of gluing elements in several places. The stand will not be made of a single cloth: its walls will have open elements.

Assemble the organizer on the principle of laying pencils house (like a house of matches) and fixing them with glue. For the foundation use cut out thick cardboard, on which put the first two elements of the "blockhouse". Then lay the pencils perpendicular to each other, forming the walls of the house.

The bright thing is put in the nursery on the table for drawing. It will not break when it falls. The pencil stand does not contain small parts. This is one of the safest organizers for younger children.

If there is nowhere to dispose of the "army" of colored pencils or felt-tip pens, the original home organizer for storage is made for her. A beautiful stand will decorate the desk and become a bright and useful decoration for a child's room.
