Eyeglasses Stand

Hello Everyone,

I wanted to introduce kids to woodworking and use it in daily life. They enjoyed using a jigsaw and sanding the wood for the first time. We used 4mm plywood, so it was relatively easier for them to work with.

Do not leave kids alone with tools that can hurt them. I was supervising the kids when they used any power tools or saw.

  • Stack smaller wooden pieces and the back piece together as shown
  • Stick them using PVA glue/ fevicol / super glue

  • And attach its nose
