5. Use the wire cutters to cut about 7 or 8 Popsicle sticks in half. This ensures a clean cut, keeping the ends from fraying.

 
6. Glue a half-stick on the inside of the cardboard tube, keeping the rounded end peeking out. Hold firmly in place for a minute.

 
7. Continue adding the sticks all around the inside.

 
8. Now glue full length sticks on the outside of the tube.

9. Apply a generous amount of glue to the bottom of the tube, then attach to the platform you created earlier. Allow to dry, then fill with brushes, pencils, whatever you fancy.
