Jill's Thrift store homemade Pencil Holder

How I made a pencil holder from my thrift store treasure. Step 1-->gather supplies: Thrift store glass, Mod Podge, scrap of material.

Step 2--> Cut the fabric scrap to wrap around the cup, Leave and inch or so on the end and leave a little at the side to cover the lip of the cup. Apply Mod Podge to glass, the wrap the fabric around, keeping the end straight on the bottom edge of the glass, pressing out wrinkles. Turn over the top end of the fabric to make a neat straight line up the side of the cup, you have to angle it. Also apply Mod Podge to the inside lip of the cup and fold the fabric over.

Step 3--> Trace an outline of the base of the glass the back side of the fabric, cut out and apply to the bottom of the glass with Mod Podge. After doing this, decided that THIS should have been the first step, then you could cut a bigger circle then cover it with the bigger (first) piece. Press down and smooth out and make sure there are no wrinkles.

Step 4--> Let dry, fill with pencils and pens. It took about 10 minutes. I thought about Mod Podging another coat on the top of the fabric, but decided not to. Also thought about 'lining' the inside of the glass, but nixed that idea, too. I just love the purple and green colors of this fabric.
