Burlap Pencil Tag Craft Supplies:

* Burlap Canvas Triangles {large or small!}
* Craft Paint {Yellow, Pink and Black}
* Small Paint Brushes
* Paper Plate
* Large Paper Plate
* Twine or Ribbon
* Scissors

The Directions:

* First think of a sharpened pencil. Think of the colors and where they start & end.
* Now grab your large paper plate and place it flat in your working area {this way the colors won’t bleed through the burlap}
* Grab your yellow paint and paint each burlap pendant, completely yellow.
* Now grab your pink and gray paint.
* For the eraser part of the pencil {the widest part of the burlap pendant} I painted a line of pink first.
* As for the tip {the smallest end} I painted that black.
* Once you have all your paint parts done, set aside to let it all dry completely.
* To finish, simply tie your finished burlap pendant piece, with some string, onto your gift boxes and bags.
* Then gift to a special teacher you may know!

And that’s it for these burlap pencil gift tags! Super easy, right? And of course – you can paint and/or add some small letter stickers, so you can spell out a teacher’s last name, to really personalized it. Tons of possibilities with this DIY craft idea!
