Doodle Pad Love


The kids have a couple birthday parties coming up, so I figured I'd whip out a couple of these cute doodle pad holders.  They're super fast to make and the kids can kill hours in a car!


I used a tutorial by Sewing Novice.  It came together pretty quick, and after making one, I realized that I'd overbought all the interfacing, so I had enough to make a second.  All in all, the two only took a couple hours to make, and that included plenty of "pat on the back" time.


These two hold jumbo crayons, but I think I might make a couple more to hold regular-sized crayons and maybe add a loop to hold a pencil.  It's really a blank slate, so I could customize it forever.

  1. Mary, these are adorable! I've seen the plain crayon rolls, but not anything with a pad holder included, so I'm pinning to make some myself for my favorite "little friends". Thanks for sharing.

  3. How fun! I so wish I had one of these when mine was little little. She might still like one now!

  4. These are wonderful, and practical. Much better than the baggie of crayons I carried in my purse until they became dust!
