A Pup for Pop

Give dad a homemade present that is fun and useful. I'm Lee Woodruff at the craft table with Family Fun. And this doggy pencil holder, made out of clothes pins will truly be man's best friend. You'll need 4 pinch style wooden clothes pins, wood glue, felt, googly eyes, a pom pom, a marker and a pencil. First decorate the four close pins using colored markers. Once the clothes pins dry, construct the front half by pinching open a close pin, and attaching it to another, just behind the metal spring. Then dab some glue on the sides. for the dog's tail end, Glue and clamp together the last two cloths pin so that one holds the other wide open. When the glue is dry, fit the open end of the back half on to the lower end of the front half. Glue them together. From the felt cut, out flappy ears and circular paws. Then glue the paws, googly eyes, the ears, and the pom pom nose on to the dog. Finally pinch open the dog's mouth and insert a pencil, balancing its weight equally on both sides. This pup for pop will make him feel like top dog
