Do you remember that cute little blue striped bin in Renee’s storage unit? The one that she uses for junk mail and recycling.
How much do you think she paid for that? Would you believe nothing?! I made it for her out of a cardboard box and art supplies I had on hand.
Materials:
Cardboard Box
Black Spray Paint (or other color)
Spray Mount (Spray Adhesive)
Elmer’s Glue
Scissors
4 sheets of scrapbook paper (wrapping paper, fabric or wallpaper)
Instructions:
MY LATEST VIDEOS1. I started with a square Huggies Pull Ups box. I knew you wouldn’t believe me, so here is the picture to prove it.
2. Spray paint the inside of your box (be sure to wear gloves because the spray will coat your hand since it swirls around inside the box.)
3. Spray adhesive on the back of 2 sheets of scrapbook paper.
4. Attach them to opposing sides of the box.
5. If your scrapbook paper wraps around the sides, that is good. Be sure to snip the top of the paper at the corners of the box so it can fold over inside the box.
6. Cut your other two sheets of scrapbook paper to the exact width of the uncovered box sides. Spray adhesive on those two sides and attached them to the box. Then fold over the top edges of the paper.
7. If the folded top edges don’t stay glued, put a little elmer’s glue underneath and then use a book, clothespins, or binder clips to hold it down while it dries.
Love this!!! I had to share on my FB page!
This is so great and just perfect for my workroom redo this week! Thanks!
Hi! I tried this with old wallpaper samples i had lying around. Worked like a charm however i would shoot for the ones with the glue already on the back, just to make it easier.
