This craft is very easy to do and children love it because they can decorate their pencils and pens with shapes that they have created themselves. They are very easy to make EVA pencil ornaments that children will love. As you must use scissors and a cutter, it is necessary for the adult to supervise the activity or that it is carried out by older children.
It takes little time to do it and the materials are also few. Since it takes little time to make the embellishments for the EVA pencils, you can make as many as your imagination wants. We have done three.
What do you need for the craft
- Colored EVA rubber pieces
- Moving eyes in case you need it
- Eraser
- 1 pencil
- Scissors
- Cutter
How do you have to do the craft
First, You will have to draw on the pieces of EVA the shapes you want your pencil ornaments to have. Once you have cut out the shapes, you will only have to make two stripes in the middle of the ornament with a utility knife.
Once you have the shapes cut out and the stripes made with a cutter, add the decorations to the decorations that require it. If you have made animals, put eyes on them or put the decorations you prefer. We have made three ornaments: a dolphin, a pirate skull and a golden ball.
In the dolphin we have added moving eyes and in the pirate skull as well. On the golden ball we have added self-adhesive EVA stars.
Within these two lines will go the pencil or the tool you want to draw or paint (pens, colored crayons, colored wooden pencils, etc.).
You already have your embellishments for the EVA pencils! What are the fun ways you have made to enjoy each time you want to use a writing or painting tool?
