The Everything ABC's Blog Hop Letter C



Welcome to the Everything ABC's Blog Hop!

For this hop we will be featuring the letter C. This may be the name of a paper, a stamp set or an embellishment. Whatever the crafter has chosen as their C element will be featured in their post.



Today I am bringing you a project featuring the use of Cereal boxes!  I saw a post on Pinterest showing an organizer for the fridge.  We are a very heavy paper clutter household so I jumped on the opportunity to create this fun and easy project pictured ...





Here is how I made my project:

  • Remove all flaps from top of cereal box
  • Make a cut at 45 degrees on each side of box from top back to front
  • Cut paper for covering box to size, your dimensions may vary depending ont he size of box you choose.  For my Fiber One box it was 8" (h)  x 11" (w)
  • I then scored the paper at 2" and 9" to make it easier to wrap around the box
  • Using tombow adhesive I lined up the paper and adhered it to the box
  • For the inner covering, I used the scraps from my original 12 x 12 paper and cut to size.  I used a square for each angled cut and glued half to the inside and the other half to the outside.

This was a super easy project and you can hang it with magnetic clips or place your magnets inside your box as I did.  I hope you enjoyed this project and it helps you to corral extra papers as well!
