DIY Flower Petal Pencil Holder


So, I have a board on Pinterest called DIY Maybe.  Up until now I have yet to create anything noteworthy but I liked the way this project came out so I thought I would share. Yesterday, I went to the dollar store and picked up clear plastic spoons and fake roses.  The instructions are simple...glue petals to the spoons and then glue to the jar.  The original project can be seen here.  My mom saves old glass peach jars for me and I thought the shape was perfect.


I used the large petals from four roses to fill the majority of the jar.  I used the smaller petals to fill in the gaps.  I want to make a few more but I plan to use better quality roses.  If you are heavy on the hot glue it will show through the cheap petals.


Have you created anything Pinterest inspired?  Leave me a link in the comments below!
