Love My Fabrics Altered Art Holder


Hi there friends!
Rachelle here and I am up on the
Love My Fabric's Blog today
 sharing my altered art project.
It is a Pen/Marker Holder that sits right on your work table.
The holder is super easy and quick to make.
Here are some easy directions.
Work Holder
 

Things needed:
*Basic Can Good
*Ribbon-5/8 width & 1/4 width
*Glue
*Fabric Square
*Cardstock
 


First thing to do would be to measure the can on the outside and inside.
Next, place the measurements on your fabric and cut out.
 I love how easy this material cuts without fringes.
Do the same on the cardstock and cut the paper that will be placed inside the can.
More Views:
Now apply glue on the cardstock and place inside the can. Then apply glue to the fabric apply it to the outside of the can. Allow the glue to set.
Now apply the ribbon to the inside top of the can followed by placing the ribbon, around the rim and lower edge of the can. Then I apply the smaller ribbon right below the the rim ribbon and the lower edge ribbon.
 

Finally, give the holder a cute touch by placing a bow in the center of the can. Then I placed a paper daisy in the center of the bow. Allow to dry.
 ALL DONE!

Now you have a cute little supply holder for your work table.
It's perfect for markers, pencils, brushes, and scissors!
That was quick, fun, and easy peasy!
Perfect for yourself and as a gift.



That's it for this post.
Thank you for stopping by today and remember to stop by
Love My Fabrics for more creative craft projects!

See Ya Soon & Huggies!
