upcycled pencil case
It's back to school, and who doesn't fancy a new pencil case -
all this one needed was a little inspiration and a bit of work to create MY designer model!!
In my words ......
'My mom bought a denim pencil case for me but I wanted to personalise it.
I wanted everyone to see how much I love horses.
Now I'm going to show you exactly how I did it!
When I took it to school all my friends wanted to know where I had bought it'

| my pencil case - needs a bit of work!! | first I selected foils that i liked | I then appliglued them onto paper to help with the selection |
 |
 |
 |
| we placed some wax paper over the foils and ironed them on a silk setting | once it had cooled we carefully peeled off the foils | in the meantime we cut around the stencils (loveheart & horses) |
 |
 |
 |
| you see me lifting the clear film knowing that the foil is left behind with the appliglue | I had traced the outline of the horse onto the pencil case with the wording. Now i filled in the gaps with clear appliglue | |
 |
 |
 |
| eagerly I placed my chosen foils onto the sticky appliglue | again I placed the wax paper on top and ironed it | when cool I carefully removed the foils |
 |
 |
 |
| again the clear film is lifted and the foil is left behind on the appliglue | planning my name on the other side of the pencil case | foils are now in place and ready to be ironed |
the back
I'm finished and i can't wait to use my pencil case!!
