What you need:
- Thick paper in pattern/color of choice
- Paper clips
- Glue stick
- Ruler
- Pencil
- Patience + basic math skills
Timeframe: <10 minutes
How to make it:
Note: Instruction number lines up with where the photo appears in the order.
- Gather your supplies.
- From every corner of your paper measure and mark an inch.
- Rotate your ruler 90 degrees and mark an inch in from your original mark. You should now have markings that create square inches at the corners of your paper. (See photo for clarification.)
- You should have four lines that are a square inch across the paper.
- On one side of your paper, line your ruler up with the lines you've made.
- Use your ruler to help you fold the paper in a straight line.
- Repeat with the other 3 sides.
- Fold all four sides in on each other to check that everything lines up and is to your liking.
- Going back to the lines you marked before, carefully cut along them. You should have four flaps you can fold in. (Refer to photos)
- Apply glue to one of the folds.
- Press fold to the outside of the flap next to it.
- Slide on a paper clip to hold the paper down while the glue dries.
- Repeat to all sides.
- You're done! Place jewelry inside and marvel at your wonderful work.
