Hi guys, and I hope you are in good health and goodness this is a new week. Today I had thought of changing my routine of making a cardboard craft. I needed a gift for my friend Dedee who loves dogs and anything that has been made by hand. And so I wanted to make her a pencil holder in the form of a dog for her to be able to find smile. This was entertaining and innovative and, as it happens, this project became a practical way of keeping pencils and pens.
Here’s how I made it.
Materials Used
-cartoon paper
- Pencil
- Eraser
- Acrylic paint (black )
Postal color blue - Paintbrush
- Scissors
- Cutter
- White paper
- Gum
Steps
Step 1: Things that I used include I had to remove one side of the carton and then I sketch the figure of a dog on it.
Step 2: Next, I had to ensure I took a shape of the dog from the cartoon paper that had been provided to me.
Step 3: I painted the body and the ears black, the face blue because this is her favorite color.
Step 4: I had to paint the cartoon paper and then cut each into two equal halves. After that, I took a long piece of cardboard, of dimensions 7 cm x 40 cm, and also painted it blue.
Step 5: I pasted the long strip of cartoon at the back of the cut-out-dog so they would shape a holder.
Step 6: I glued a nose and a mouth for the dog on its face, which I painted on the black acrylic paint on a white paper.
The Result
Finally, all part of the set completely fixed and the pencil holder in form of a dog was ready Dedee liked it and I was glad that I had made a particular piece for her.
