Emotibins - How to make Motivating Dustbins for Classroom

I have noticed in my teaching career as a Junior School Teacher that most students ignore the use of dustbins in class while sharpening the pencils. They ususally sharp the pencils while sitting on their seats and even some students do not go through the little work of sharpening at all.

So I came up with the idea of creative dustbins that really amazed me when my students loved to come up to dustbins to sharp the pencils and really enjoyed it. Otherwise working with blunt and thick lead was rather common. And the sharper the pencil, the cleaner the work! Here I am sharing my idea that I know everyone will love!

Step 1: Things you will need:

Card Sheet(any thick paper sheet) in 2 colors - I am using Red and Green
Foamic Sheet in different colors - I am using Brown, White, Light Blue, Dark Blue and Red

Ribbon 1 inch wide about 2 yards in any color - I am using Light Green color
Cord in any color - I am using Red
