How to Make Craft Stick Pencil Craft
Gather all of your supplies for this pencil craft made out of jumbo crafts sticks!
Make eraser
First, let’s make the eraser. Cut a small square of pink construction paper the width of the craft stick and glue it to the end of the stick. Trim the edges with scissors.
Create Pencil Tip
Using white construction paper, cut a small square. Attach the white square with glue to the top of the yellow jumbo craft stick. Once secure, fold the top two corners of the paper to a point.
Fill in the top triangle of the point with a black marker to make the illusion of lead for your pencil.
Finishing Touches
Next, cut a small square of the decorative glitter tape and place it above the “eraser.”
Finally, add some eyes and a smile to give your pencil some character!
