We are so excited to launch our new blog!! Here, parents and prospective clients (or those that are just surfing!) can find tips, articles, and awesome craft ideas! Learn from the best, and see what we are up to! Please be patient with us while we get our blog into full swing.

For now, please enjoy this super cute back-to-school craft! As a gift for a teacher or for your office, this pencil holder is extremely easy to make, and with the back-to-school sales happening now, is very cheap!


First, start with a tin can (preferably of the same height as your colored pencils; however, with some craftiness, you could cut the pencils shorter).

Next, apply each pencil around the can using a hot glue gun. (Tip: If you don't have access to a hot glue gun or want to keep the pencils usable, use a rubber-band to hold pencils in place!) Tie a ribbon of your choice around the outside of the pencils to create a complete effect; hot glue to hold the ribbon in place, if you wish.

All that is needed now are some candies or beautiful flowers!

Enjoy!
