Spring blossoms pencil toppers - A super fun and creative reuse idea!


For this reuse project all you need is
  • Pencil
  • Play-doh bottle
  • Coffee filter
  • Markers or crayons
  • Scraps of construction paper
  • Pipe cleaner
  • Tape
  • Scissors
Using Scissors cut construction paper and tape it on Play-Doh bottle to cover the label. You can also stick colorful small torn pieces of construction paper using glue for mosaic like art.

Take a coffee filter. Using markers or crayons make colorful art on it. When done poke a hole on the center, insert pencil and tape the filter to the pencil end. You can also use a paper napkin or paper towel instead of coffee filter. Just cut  in round shape using scissors.

Roll pipe cleaner on pencil.

Fill scarps of construction paper in the play-doh bottles and stick a pencil in it.

A very special thanks to Lori Sims Gardea for supporting colormehappy with wonderful reuse idea and supplies!
