Photo Pencils
This is a very cheap, quick and easy project. Make 3 copies on regular copy paper of a 5x6 photo. Cut each photo into 1.25" strips so that you end up with 4 stips per photo and 3 exact copies of each strip. Using a glue stick, glue the first 3 copied strips (they will all be the same part of the photo) onto the first 3 pencils. Glue the next three copies to the next 3 pencils and so on. Then put the pencils together and roll them until the picture lines up. I didn't do it to mine, but I would coat them with mod podge.I did do a little boo boo on mine. I wrapped one of the pencils in the opposite direction that I had been rolling them and it makes it look like part of the photo is missing on the 7th pencil. Oops. I might go back and fix it, but for now I just wanted to try it out and see if it was as easy as it looked, and it is.
