A Spotted Canary Project by Nifty Thrifty

8 September 2009

A worry free, to-go crayon caddy allows a budding artist to create anywhere.

Instructions

STEP 1:

Cover the body of the box with yellow pattern paper. Cut to size and wrap around the box.

STEP 2:

Cut and wrap the green paper to the body of the box. Cut the front sections of the green paper into the letter “V”. Add 2 thinly cut green strips inside the “V” that was wrapped around the body of the box

STEP 3:

Cut ½ inch strips of colored paper and place it all the way around the container near the top edge. Hide the start and stop lines of the colored paper with a green scallop at the top of the colored paper and a solid green strip at the bottom of the colored paper

STEP 4:

Add the letter stickers to spell “write on” and embellish with puffy floral stickers

STEP 5:

Cover the lid with green paper and finish the edge of the lid with a narrow strip of green paper

STEP 6:

Make sure not to add paper or adhesive inside the lid so that it my effect the opening and closing of the box

STEP 7:

TIPS FOR SUCCESS: Curve paper around container before adhering to the metal box. This will give the paper the shape of the container and allow it to stay in place better as you stick it down.
