What to do with empty cereal boxes?
Here’s a pretty fun idea to upcycle them into fancy little purse for your little ones.
You will need:
1 empty fun-pack cereal box
Some felts (2 matching colours)
3M Picture Hanging Strip
Double-sided tape and craft glue
Stapler and Scissors
Step 1: Measure 4cm from the first fold from the top and draw a line
Step 2: Cut off the top flaps
Step 3: Cut along the line on 3 sides, leave one of the wider side uncut
Step 4: Make a depress fold on both sides, then cut away 3 sides of the buttom flaps, leave 1 of the wider flap uncut
Step 5: Tuck in the remaining bottom flap and fold down the top flap
Step 6: Gather strips of felts at the sides of the purse and tape them down with double-sided tape.
Step 7: Wrap the purse with felt
Step 8: Cut a small strip of 3M picture hanging strip and stick them onto the purse with craft glue
You may want to further secure the bottom picture hanging strip with stapler. |
And we are done!
