Incense Holder Design
I had a problem with my incense holder because the ash always fell to the ground, that's why I chose to make one where the ash can fall inside.
Since I love recycling, it occurred to me to use materials that I used or that I collected.
The incense holder was very practical for me, but to give it an artistic and mystical touch I decided to mold the figure of a cat on the tube, a little animal that fascinates me.
The results was spectacular!
I think I transform a simple container into an beautiful works of art.
I love it.

Incense Holder Design:
With the blade, make a hole in the potato chip tube on the side, then stick the cork at the base inside the tube, before using the screw and punch, make a hole in the cork to place the incense there. We would already have the incense holder ready, but to give it an artistic touch, we are going to create the image of a cat.
Cat Shaped Sculpture:
To create the cat, we will use the egg holder to turn it into a moldable dough along with the rubber. To do this, several of them were previously cut and submerged in hot water for a whole day, then all the water was dried from the cardboard and the rubber was used to obtain a dough to mold the figure of the cat.
We glue cardboard to the incense tube to give it the shape of a cat, then the dough is molded until it covers the entire tube, finally we give it the shape of a cat.
Finally, for the head, use a small plastic cup and mold the shape with the dough.
Paint the desired color.
Finished Sculpture
We waited a few days for our work of art to dry well, it turned out very nice, it withstands falls.
Finished Incense Holder
Finally, we painted it the desired color, it looked spectacular. It was a lot of fun doing this cat-instructable.
