PROJECT:

1. Decide the shapes of the pencil toppers: hearts, leaves, circles, squares, etc. Select the color paper to be used for each shape: green for leaves, red or pink for hearts, etc. Patterned papers are especially eye-catching for pencil toppers.
2. Trace the shape on to the paper. Cut.
3. Cut two small slits in the middle of the paper shape. Do not cut up to the edges. You want a slit wide enough to pass the pencil through.
4. Slip the pencil through the slit and you have a pencil topper for your favorite writing tool!
