Materials: - a magazine (I didn't use more than half of a magazine) - glue gun I started by making a tight little roll and making the flat circle that I showed you the other day.

For some reason I was looking at some pieces of lead I have (for a drafting pencil) and “pop” there it was.. a solution to my DIY longing. Here is a tutorial to make pencils that is so ridiculously easy I’ve made 10 pencils since the idea came to me yesterday! Enjoy.
