Simple Back To School DIYS!


So as you all already know school is starting up again real soon and for some of you it may have already started! I don't know about you but I still wish we had a few more weeks of summer left, but sadly we really don't and there's no way to make that happen so we might as well make the best of school right? Anyway I came up with a cute DIYS idea to decorate boring school supplies. You might already be able to tell what I did from the photo but I will go over it anyway. 

What you will need- Pencils, I used TEKwriter mechanical ones from Costco but you can use whatever you would like. Erasers, I used HI-POLYMER by pentel from Fred-meyers which have little cardboard covers, perfect to decorate. And most importantly you will need Duck tape And Washi Tape (which is Japanese) You can get them online or at any craft store.

Step #1- GO CRAZY! you can decorate them however you would like. Any color and design! As you can see I only did the tops of the pencils but you can do the entire thing if you want(;

That's it really, I know it's pretty simple but I thought it was a cute way to spice up boring school supplies. You can do as many things as you want, folders, pens, highlighters, pencil cases, binders, etc.  I hope you enjoy this post. I'll post more ideas soon!
