4. Allow the clay to dry according to the manufacturer's instructions.

5. Once the clay is dry, use colorful pens to add vibrant details to the patterns. Feel free to get as creative as you want in this step!


2. Hedgehog-shaped Pencil Holder:

For this adorable pencil holder, you'll need clay, shaping tools, and some patience!


Step-by-Step Instructions:

1. Take a generous amount of clay and shape it into a rectangular base that will serve as the hedgehog's body.

2. Use your fingers or clay shaping tools to create a triangular shape at one end of the body, which will be the hedgehog's face.

3. Carefully add small clay spikes all over the hedgehog's body.

4. Create small holes along the hedgehog's back to accommodate pencils.

5. Leave the clay to dry completely.

6. Once dry, add cute details to the hedgehog.


Conclusion:

Let your creativity shine through as you experiment with patterns and designs, making each pencil holder a unique work of art. These personalized pencil holders will not only help keep your kids' stationery organized but will also be a proud display of their artistic talent.
