pencil shaving Art is actually a Back to school craft. Have you fancied the perfectly round Pencil shavings we get from a new pencil during childhoods. We used to save those perfect circle shaped shavings between our book pages. Here I can show you how to convert your pencil shaving to a beautiful art

Thats was the first time I learnt to make an art out of waste. All our school craft teachers might have taught us that kind of a craft. Though it looks childish I like the pencil shaving art :). Recently I made one and wanted to share with you my nostalgic childhood art.

Supplies you will need:

  • Pencil shavings
  • Craft Glue
  • Markers
  • Some seeds
