How to make Origami Pencil Holders.

2. Fold your square in half with the pattern facing down.
3. Open your paper back out and fold the sides in to meet the centre fold.
4. Open out and fold the top left corner to meet the centre fold.
5. Fold the top right corner to meet the 1st fold from the right.
6. Fold the right hand side to the center and then the left hand side over to the right.
7. Take the last flap and wrap it around the back. Use a little glue to hold the back flap in place.
8. Flip your paper over and slide your pencils into the pocket.
