Saturday Craft: Muppets Pencil Holder

The new school year is just around the corner! Many are choosing a virtual route for school this year and these adorable mason jar pension holders will go great on your computer desk!

 

What you need:

  • Peach, white, and green colored paint
  • mason jar
  • small White and orange pompoms
  • Medium googly eyes
  • red felt
  • Hot glue gun

Instructions:

  1. First, paint the entire inside of your jar Peach.
  2. Paint a white strip 1 1/2” thick on the outside/bottom of the jar. Paint a green, upside down triangle on the white strip where you want to be the front of your pencil holder and allow to dry.
  3. Cut open your googly eyes. Take the black circles out and glue them to your white pompom balls. (You could also just cut black circles out of felt)
  4. Glue the eyes to the Top/front of your jar.
  5. Glue an orange pompom directly underneath they eyes.
  6. Cut a beaker mouth shape out of red felt and tuck it under the nose a bit before glueing it on. Try to make yours look less like a turkey than mine.
  7. Fill your jar with pencils and let your cute new pencil holder brighten your day. 🙂

 

These jars can easily be made to look like any of the muppets! Try it out and post yours in the comments!
