2. Paint 2/3 of the the front tall panel of the desk organiser using CleverPatch™ Light Green Acrylic Paint. Paint a strip along the front of the desk organiser approximately 1cm thick. Allow to dry.

3. Paint the rest of the desk organiser blue. We have chosen to use CleverPatch™ Dark Blue Acrylic Paint and created 2 lighter blues by adding white, then painted a fading effect. Allow to dry.

4. Paint a 3cm thick silver line between the blue and green along the front of the desk organiser, and a 1cm silver line between the green and blue on the tall panel as shown in the image above. Allow to dry.

5. Mix acrylic paint together to create different skin tones to use as faces in the crowd at your stadium. Use a cotton tip to dab the paint onto the desk organiser.

6. Create a goal by painting 3 popsticks white. Allow to dry. Cut the ends off one so that it is 7cm long. Glue the other 2 popsticks to either side of the cut popstick. Allow to dry. Wrap red embroidery thread around the bottom of each popstick to make it look like goal posts. Tie to secure.

9. Glue the goal posts to the tall panel of your desk organiser. Choose a spot for your wooden character to stand and glue the sign in front so it looks like they are holding it. Allow to dry. Your Stadium Desk Organiser is now ready to give to Dad on Father’s Day!
