About the craft below...
If anyone is into recycling and being crafty then this is the tab for you. So last night i looked at my nightstand and i saw how messy it was. It was mostly all the ponytail holders and bracelets and stuff like that. So if your desk/nightstand is like mine, then look at the first craft that is on here and this will help you. If not you can make this for any other things. So please comment on this in the CRAFTS tab on "Comments and Suggestions"
Jewlery closet.
Supplies
1. one cardboard box
2. markers
3. 2 knobs
4.a knife or sharp scissors
5. glue
6. glitter (optional)
7. paint
8. hooks
9. screws
1. one cardboard box
2. markers
3. 2 knobs
4.a knife or sharp scissors
5. glue
6. glitter (optional)
7. paint
8. hooks
9. screws
1. So if you want to, you can paint the cardboard box whatever color you want
2. When the paint is dry you draw a horizontal line at the bottom of the cardboard box but not the very bottom. About a half of an inch from the bottom is good. Then you draw a vertical line form the top middle until the horizontal line. 3. with an adult's help, use your knife or scissors to cutno along the the lines but make sure both sections are attached to the actual box.
4. if screws aren't attached to the knobs you will need screws at this part. So use your markers once again and draw holes in the top section. where you will open your closet.
5. poke a screw through the hole and keep it in there. Attach a knob to the screw if there isn't already one on it. do this on both sides of the line that you cut.
6. Now you should be able to open it. On the inside you can attach as many hooks as you want on the top. You can also put holes on the sides for earrings and stuff.
7. You are now done. You can decorate with glitter or any thing you want. You can even paint the inside.
Well I went to CREATE STUDIO last Friday and I made the Jewlery Closet but it didn't turn out the way I expected. It didn't end up being a closet. And they didn't have any hooks or knobs. So I poked holes in the top of the CEREAL BOX... and stuck straws throught the holes. I hot glued them on the top. Then I found little purple things that you slide and they open on the side( keychain type things) and duck taped them to the straws. I stuck a whisker to the bottom of the box on the inside because it was really cute. There was a mad egg at the bottom. I stuck a sand dollar to the side for another decoration. Then I found a tray that had little sections in it. I glued it on to the bottom. Oh and the hooks were for my necklaces!!!!
