How to recycle a sad box

The pieces to sew together
Tuna jars have been eaten...and the box?
Place inside and turn down the border
Done!

Instructions

Place the box on fabric and draw its perimeter.
Cut the fabric rectangle a little smaller then the basis of the box.
The strip around must be high more then two times the box (you have to sew the border!).

Difficulty:

Category: Sewing

Type of item: Accessory

For: Home

Style: Casual, Classic


Materials

A carton, colored fabric.

What was your inspiration?

I never feel like throwing away things, so I always search for a way to reuse them... and you know, in a house there is never enough space to place toys, jewels or sewing tools!
And I love boxes! They make my life seem more ordered... :)
