New jewelry holder

Va amintiti suportul de cercei pe care l-am facut luna trecuta? Mamei mele i-a placut foarte mult asa ca i-am facut si ei unul. Acesta:

Do you remember the jewelry (earings) holder that I made last month? Well my mother loved it and I made one for her too. This one:

Tin cans as pencils holders - DIY


Saptamana trecuta am cumparat creioane colorate pentru Robert. Pentru ca nu mai aveam loc sa le pun in acelasi suport cu pixurile noastre, si ca sa scap de stresul ca va lua un marker si nu un creion, i-am facut aceste doua suporturi folosind conservele ce urmau sa ajunga la tomberonul de reciclare. Le-am reciclat eu :)
Iata de ce avem nevoie:

Last week I've bought some color pencils for Robert. Because i didn't have to much space for them in our pens and markers holder and not to worry about that he will take the marker and not a colour pencil, i made this two tin can pencil holders using... tin cans. Great idea to recycle!
Here is what we need:
  • conserve goale spalate bine si uscate
  • carton colorat
  • foarfeca
  • lipici

  • empty tin cans, very good washed
  • colored cardboard
  • scisor
  • glue













Cum se face:
Masurati inaltimea conservei intre marginile de metal, marcati masuratoarea pe carton si taiati. Apoi infasurati  bucata de hartie taiata in jurul conservei  pentru a  masura lungumea cartonului si mai adaugati un centimetru astfel ca hartia sa se suprapuna. Puneti lipici pe partea interioara, necolorata a cartonului, asezati conserva si rotiti usor pana la capat. Mai adaugati lipici pe toata latimea cartonul si lipiti apasand ferm.

How it's done:
Measure the height of your can between the metal rims, mark the measure on your cardboard and cut it. Then wrap it around the can and measure for the lenght and add one centimeter for the paper to overlap. Put some glue  first on the inside of the cardboard and wrap it around your can and then on the height and press firmly.

 











Urmatorul pas e sa asezati creioanele colorate, pixurile si gata! Arata tare dragut.

The next step is to put the colored pencils, pens and that's it! I think they look really nice.





Have fun! :)
