Frosting Container = Pencil Cup
..
Inspiration:
A gift my niece made for me for hosting a Stampin’ Up! party. You can see the inspiration piece at the end of this post.
 
Supplies:
Frosting container
Craft foam
Craft foam decorations
Glue
Scissors (I used a rotary cutting system)
1. Measure the frosting container. To measure a round object, take a piece of string and wrap it around the piece. Lay the string out on a ruler and you have your measurement. My container measured 3-1/2″ x 10-1/2″.
2. Cut out a piece of craft foam for the background. Apply glue to the back.
3. Wrap the craft foam around the container.
4. Apply the decorations.
5. You have a fresh, happy little pencil cup. Think of all the possibilities. You can use felt, paper, craft foam or fabric.
This is the inspiration piece. It has my name on it.
oh so cute, that foam craft stuff is great for kids!
That turned out really cute! We had our kids in class make some of those for Mother’s Day this year, and we had the same foam flowers!
I really like the cheerful color and design!
