School is about ready to begin again. And, what is the item you use most often at school? A pencil, of course. So, for today’s craft I’m going to show you how to take an everyday pencil and turn it into a Color Tape Decorated Pencil perfect for using at school. Just grab a standard cheapo yellow pencil and some different color tape and you are good to go. The more different colored tape you have the better. So, grab the materials needed and let’s get this back to school craft started.
