Upcycled Candy Pencil Tube

Description

I made this little beauty after making a rattle from Pringles tube for my little baby, and having used Fruit Pastilles tube for my pencils and crochet hooks for a while. This is a kind of mix of the two. :D

It uses upcycled Cadbury's Chocolate Eggs tube, yellow coloured paper and colourful little circles - all cut out from junk mail pages! And a bit of double-sided tape and adhesive film for textbooks.

It holds surprisingly big amount of pencils, considering how tiny it looks, and crochet hooks. Unsharpened pencils don't fit, though. You have to sharpen them about twice before they do. It's a cutey, get it before someone else does! I am not sure I'll be making them again!

This item is made by me in my pet- and smoke-free home.

All my items are shipped in first class. If you wish recorded delivery or insurance, please tell me beforehand.
