πŸ–ŠοΈ What Are We Making?

We’re making a Pen Stand out of old cardboard and a few simple materials lying around your home. It’s fun, easy, and eco-friendly!

Pari says:

“Why throw it away when you can turn it into something awesome?”

πŸͺ„ Steps to Make the Pen Stand:

Step 1: Cut the Cardboard

  • Take an old cardboard box or sheet.
  • Measure and cut 4 equal rectangles (e.g., 4 inches x 3 inches) for the sides.
  • Cut 1 square piece (e.g., 3 inches x 3 inches) for the base.

Step 2: Build the Box

  • Glue or tape the 4 side pieces together to form a square or rectangle.
  • Attach the base piece at the bottom.

🧠 Tip from Pari: β€œMake sure everything is stuck well – we don’t want our pens to fall out!”
