Supplies Needed
Use your craft knife to score and cut notches on both sides in a "V" shape with the point at the bottom.
Trim the cardboard so that the box has a "V" shaped opening on both sides.
Now, you will follow the line connecting the two notches and lightly score the cardboard. Don't cut all the way through.
Now, you will fold the box in half along the scored line.
Use hot glue to attach the two sides together, as shown. This will create a box with pockets on both sides.
Now, use your box to measure and cut the contact paper to fit.
Trim the contact paper so the sides are notched for easy application, as shown.
Now, peeling a little of the backing off at a time, you will apply the contact paper to the box, covering all sides and folding over the tops as shown.
Make sure to leave a few extra inches on the sides to fold over the top of every side to cover any rough edges.
This will cover the rough edges and make it look a little neater around the edges.
Now, you will decorate the box with ribbon or lace. I added a bit of lace along all edges using hot glue.
Once your lace is in place, you can add a fake flower or bow to each side to cover where the ends meet.
Now, you can fill your box with books, magazines, yarn, or remote controls!
