Material: : coconut shell, 3 small clean rocks, any color acrylic paint, sponge or cotton ball to paint, hot-glue or E6000, small items to stick on. 

How to make:

Take a coconut shell clean and dry. Pull/ scrub away any loose fibers from the outer shell.

Dab paint on the inside and outside with sponge or cotton ball or old rag. You can apply two different paints in the inside and outside if you wish. Let dry.

Place 3 small rocks about 2-3 ‘’ apart and put the shell on it to see if can balance.

Now with an adult’s supervision apply hot glue or E600 on the rocks so as to get the above position.

6. The container is ready! Use it to put your small lost & found items at home like screws, or small miscellaneous things such as erasers, sharpeners, rubber bands etc.

Variation:-
You can make such containers to organize you Lego pieces, hair-pins, jewelry etc. If you use food coloring to dye it, you can use it to put nuts, candies, cereals etc for snack!
