Stamped Pencil Jar Tutorial

Check out my cute little pencil jar.

I first started by carving a sweet little heart stamp. (You could use a store-bought stamp as well.) Next, I painted a sheet of ledger paper with red and yellow acrylic paints.
Then I used my carved stamp to stamp a row of red hearts onto the painted paper. Once dry, I tore the paper into a thick strip.
I inserted the strip into a mason jar and then placed my pencils inside.

Happy crafting. :)
