Lets Make a Mess

Messy Paint Bucket DIY Pencil Holder

September 27, 2016 by Rachel Leave a Comment

You’ve probably noticed how much I love things to do with dripping paint (just look at the header of my blog!). And so for my latest post for Oriental Trading Company, I turned a messy paint bucket into a DIY pencil holder.

These little buckets are perfect for filling with pens and pencils. There are a lot of fun ways to use them too. You could make one of every color and use them to sort all of your miscellaneous supplies by color. I think this would be especially cute in a classroom. They would also be perfect for kids or for adults.

Plus, these are so much messy fun to make! Another fun touch would be to add a white label across the middle before you drip the paint.

Be sure to stop by Oriental Trading for the full tutorial for this DIY pencil holder, plus where to find these little galvanized buckets that are absolutely perfect.
