Select one flat sheet of the Tube Crafts and cut it all the way across using the midpoint notch as a guide.

After you have cut across the sheet, you should have two separate templates to make smaller tubes.

Roll up several of the tubes in various sizes.

Next, cut little slits into the bottom edge of each tube. Space the slits at about ½” apart.

And voila! A great way to keep all your desk tools in one neat little area. We suggest using 3 tubes at a time because they provide stability for holding various objects. Use the tubes to store your favorite colors of markers, pencil crayons, Goo Spreaders, paintbrushes, pipettes and more!
