DIY Holder


Today, we will see how to make a cute Holder that’s too easy to make. You can use it anywhere to organize things. Let’s look at the procedure:





Step 1: Take a foam sheet and cut a circle out it of diameter 22 cm.



Step 2: Fold the circle half and put little cuts on the ends with the scissor. Do this for three more times by folding the circle half horizontally, diagonally or vertically and matching up the cuts. Consider the Image provided below and fold the circle where red line is marked. Then make a small cut where the black line is marked.  At the end of this step, you must have eight small cuts on the circle.

Step 3: Now, fold the circle such that two consecutive cuts come one above the other and make a cut at folded corner or the middle of the two holes. Do this for each and every cut. Follow the figure in the image below where middle points of two consecutive cuts are the yellow dots.



Step 4: Mark the cuts with the pen to make visibility more clear. Take a ruler and mark a point 4 cm away from the cut. Then join the cut and the point. Do this for every cut.



Step 5: With the help of a scissor, cut each and every line drawn in the previous step. Make sure to cut only the marked line. In this way, small sections of the circle are created.



Step 6: Mark two points on a section towards the side edges. Using punching machine, make a hole at both the points. Do this for each section.





Step 7: Take a string to bind the holder together. Overlap two sections by overlapping their holes as shown in the image. Insert the string into this overlapped hole from outside. Then after this, again overlap the section in which you have inserted the string with the next section by overlapping their holes.  Insert the string into this hole by continuing with the previous direction. In simple words, insert the string as if you are stitching the holder. Follow the image for better understanding.



Step 8: Once each hole has been covered, then tie the knot at the end and form a nice bow.



You can store anything in this holder like hairbands, beads, marbles, etc.



Happy DIY!!
