How to Make a Bow Pencil Case

How to Make a Bow Pencil Case | When you need a new pencil case, whether it's for back-to-school, for a fun change or because your old one has broken, consider making a bow pencil case. It's cute, simple-to-make, and doesn't require any sewing.

How to Make a Bow Pencil Case

Things You'll Need:

  1. A large rectangular fabric piece (need not have perfect edges)
  2. Hot glue/ super glue (hot glue is preferred)
  3. A strip of another fabric (preferably a color contrasting to the large fabric.) It should be the length of the width of your large piece of fabric, plus enough extra material for you to tie a knot.
Step by Step:

Preparing the Fabric

  • Fold a large rectangular fabric piece in half.
  • Trim the side edges.
  • Trim the top portion. This side should also be as neat as a pin!

    Assembling the Pencil Case

    • Stick the two edges together with super glue or hot glue (preferably hot glue).
    • Place the fabric strip in the center. Ensure that there is enough extra fabric on the side with the opening to tie a bow, and the other end sticks off of the other side.
    • Stick down with glue.
    • Stow your stationery and supplies in the case.
    • Flip it over.
    • Tie a knot.

And the house is being cleared of any *extra* stuff that apparently we can live without...hmmm!? Can I really live without *stuff*? This will be the making, or perhaps the undoing, of my Bower Bird ways. We'll see. So far I'm loving the empty walls.

We spent a very wet Sydney weekend re-aranging rooms, and ...
