DIY Pen and Pencil Holder: Upcycling a Plastic Bottle | Step-by-Step Tutorial – Part 5

Welcome back to part 5 of our tutorial on how to make a pen pencil holder from a plastic bottle! In this final part, we will be adding some finishing touches to our holder to make it look even more stylish and functional. Let’s get started!

Step 1: Gather your materials
For this part of the tutorial, you will need the following materials:
– Scissors
– Colored paper or decorative tape
– Glue or double-sided tape
– Markers, paints, or stickers (optional)

Step 2: Cut out decorative paper or tape
To add some flair to your pen pencil holder, cut out strips of colored paper or decorative tape to wrap around the top and bottom edges of the holder. You can also cut out shapes or patterns to glue onto the sides of the holder. Get creative and customize your holder to match your personality or home decor!

Step 3: Attach the decorative paper or tape
Using glue or double-sided tape, carefully attach the strips of paper or tape to the edges of the holder. Make sure to press down firmly to ensure they stick securely. If you cut out shapes or patterns, glue them onto the sides of the holder in a design of your choosing.

Step 4: Add personal touches (optional)
If you want to further personalize your pen pencil holder, you can use markers, paints, or stickers to embellish it. Write your name, draw a fun design, or add some motivational quotes to inspire you while you work. Get creative and make your holder truly unique!

Step 5: Let it dry
Once you have finished decorating your pen pencil holder, set it aside to dry completely before using it. This will ensure that the paper, tape, and glue have enough time to bond to the plastic surface and stay in place.

Congratulations! You have now completed your very own pen pencil holder made from a plastic bottle. Not only is this holder functional and eco-friendly, but it also adds a touch of style to your workspace. Feel free to make more holders in different colors and designs to organize all of your writing tools.
