Preparation:
1. On a piece of paper, use a ruler to draw vertical and horizontal lines that cross each other.
2. In the resulting square, draw two lines to form a corner.
3. Cut out the detail. This is the pencil template we will use to make the notebook sheets.
4. Fold a sheet of paper in half. Trace the template on it, attaching it to the fold line.
5. Cut the workpiece on three sides (you do not need to cut along the fold line).
6. Make 10 of these sheets for your notebook.
7. Fold a piece of cardboard in half and circle the template on it, stepping back from the fold line 0.5 cm.
8. Draw lines along the ruler, stepping 0.5 cm from the template.
9. Cut out the workpiece. This will be the cover for the notebook.
10. Let’s color it. Paint the upper part with yellow or beige paint. When the paint is dry, paint the bottom part pink.
11. Add white dots and a face with different emotions.
12. Paint the inside.
13. Make some different covers.
14. Staple the sheets with a stapler or thread and a needle.
15. For closing the notebook, make two holes for the elastic using a needle on the back of the cover.
16. Let’s make the holes thicker with a toothpick.
17. Also add another hole for the keychain chain.
18. Take an elastic thread or cut an unnecessary thin hair elastic. Tie a knot and thread through one of the holes.
19. Wrap the thread around the notebook.
20. And insert the end of the thread into the second hole.
21. Tie a knot and cut off any excess.
22. Slide the key chain through the hole. The notebook is ready!
Funny pencils are ready to use! Good as a gift 🙂
