How to Make Cool Stuff
Today we will show you how to make a moving carousel / merry-go-round. You will be able to make this moving toy with some spools, some string, a pencil, and a few cardboard boxes. The motor works by winding string around a spool by spinning the pencil…then it moves on its own. Pretty cool…and you don’t have to use any difficult-to-use materials.
August is here and school is drawing nearer. This is a great Back-To-School Craft … make a cute pendant with a pencil that can still be used.
Since pencils are the one back to school item you will use most often…. why not make it unique. Today I will show you how to make a Toy Figure Pencil Topper. I can almost guarantee that no one else in your class will have a pencil like yours. What is cool is that you probably already have the craft materials around your house. Simply grab one of your favorite toy figurines you have around your house, get a pipe cleaner and pencil and you are good to go. Let’s get started.
School is about ready to begin again. And, what is the item you use most often at school? A pencil, of course. So, for today’s craft I’m going to show you how to take an everyday pencil and turn it into a Color Tape Decorated Pencil perfect for using at school. Just grab a standard cheapo yellow pencil and some different color tape and you are good to go. The more different colored tape you have the better. So, grab the materials needed and let’s get this back to school craft started.
In the last post I was talking about how 100 days of school will be arriving soon, and that got me thinking…. if you are almost at 100 days of school your pencils must be getting old and it is time for some new ones. Well, instead of just using the same old standard pencils for school… why not take it up a notch. Let’s make our pencils fancy and fun with some decorations. Today I’m going to show you how to make decorated pencils. The craft will be so much fun…. almost as much fun as these pencils will be to use. So, let’s get started.
