Who here love to eat
cereal? But you know cereal also benefit to protect your beloved books. This also
can be a part of decoration at your living room.
Let’s learn!
Materials:
Cereal box |
scissor |
Modge Podge/ UHU glue |
Paint Brush |
Scrapbook paper |
Method:
1) Cut the top flaps off your cereal box
First, trace the shape you want for your magazine folder. You
need at least 5 inches at the bottom and 3 inches at the top to hold your
magazines securely. You can cut the shape depend on your personal taste,
straight/curve.
2) Mod Podge
When you already have basic shape, paint a layer of Mod
Podge on the box and lay your paper on top of the glue. You also can use newspaper;
this is function to make your shelf look thick. Cut the scrapbook paper around
your box, leaving at least 1/2 inch to 1 inch around on all sides.
3) Adjust the Corners
To fold the corners simply use your scissors to cut a slit
right at the corner and fold both pieces in. Mod Podge all the edges as you
fold them in. I don’t worry about the entire inside but I do want a nice folded
over edge. To fold the paper around the curved edges, make slits in the paper
every inch or two to allow the paper to fold more easily.
) Complete the box side
Measure the box side and choose the scrap paper that no
bigger than your cereal box. Paste the scrap paper at the cereal box. It looks
best to have a strip that is smaller than the total width so
Measure your box side and choose the width of your outside
strip. Cut the strip and Mod Podge it on, folding over at the top and bottom.
It looks best to have a strip that is smaller than the total width. As long you
have a simple pattern or using a different pattern for your strip.
Tadaaa,its done. You can reduce your trash from cereal box
and it also can useful not only for book but also for others thing depend on
how your creative.
