Box made from cat food carton!

I was about to throw the box in the recycling then decided to recycle it for myself! As you do..............
This is how it started! I cut the box in half leaving one side still attached then stuck the two sides together. I used some Laura Ashley Traditional paper to cover the box and lined it with cream hammered card. The lid was cut from hammered card also and attached with large brads. I added ribbon round the edges and attache a loop & brad fastening. The box is a good size for atcs, fat pages or cds or anything else that will fit really!
