1 brown paper shopping bag (or recycle some wrapping paper or kraft/packing paper which is what I used) 1 composition notebook 2 empty cereal boxes Glue (I used Elmers Glue-All for regular gluing and decoupage) Clamps (optional) Duct tape Artwork Clear Contact paper

What was your inspiration?

I was just trying to keep the beautiful art my friend made for me. I had a very large piece of art a friend of mine made for an old apartment of mine. I wanted to keep it but had nowhere to display it.

What are you most proud of?

I'm proud of how functional the finished product is. And they started out as cereal boxes!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Go for it, it's easy! Just make sure everything dries before moving on to the next step.
