Cute Puppy DIY Pencil Holder and Organizer

This is great for kids not only for a fun craft but also a functional fun companion while they are engaged in distance learning. I created a puppy but any cute animal can be made out of the same materials. Kids are so creative, if you give them the supplies and instructions, they will create their work of art that they are proud of!

Materials:

  • 3 Cans – 2 Different Sizes
  • Fun Scrapbooking Paper or Wrapping Paper
  • Black and White Craft Foam
  • Felt
  • 1 Pink Pom Pom (for the nose)
  • 6 Small Pom Poms (for the paws)
  • Hot Glue Gun
  • Optional Paint for the Inside of the Cans

Instructions:

Cut pieces of paper the size of each can.

Glue the fabric onto the cans with craft glue.

Draw and ear pattern and cut the shape out of felt or paper.

Glue that cans together and paint the inside of the cans with coordinating paint.

Cut out eyes from craft foam and glue the pieces together.

Attach the pom poms, nose and ears with craft glue and add a tuft of fur on the top of the head to add to the puppies cuteness!
