Step-by-step
Step 1
For this project, you'll need the edding 24 EcoLine highlighters and a black edding 25 EcoLine permanent marker. First, cut the cardboard tube in half across the middle and cut the top edge into a rounded shape so it looks like an ice cream. Using the leftover pieces of cardboard, make the lolly stick and glue it on. Now grab the super-bright highlighters and decorate your ice lollies however you like, letting your imagination run wild!
Step 2
In our example, each ice cream represents a day of the week. To see all your dates and deadlines at a glance, simply write them on the shapes and draw cute faces on the others. Finally, attach all the ice creams to the cord and hang up your garland in a prominent place. Use an arrow to mark what day of the week it is.
