Stationery Holder



Time for easy crafts again !! I made a stationery holder using a used envelope with a double design using a technique I learned many years ago during Home Science lessons.




First, I folded to the black side of the paper and cut slits horizontally [1st pic]. Then I cut the other patterned paper into thin strips and began weaving it as above.



Once it was done, I closed it into a cylindrical shape and stapled the ends.



If you notice, the bottom of the holder is a cutout from an old supermarket leaflet I found lying around



EAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSSYYYYY PEASY !! That's it ! Happy looong weekend to all my fellow UAE-ites :-)
