I've been working on some crafts to share with you and came across these juice carton wallets. I love upcycling and recycling so I thought I would give it a try. It took a couple tries to perfect, but they are easy and fun to make.
Supplies:
- Empty washed-out juice carton (with lid)
- Paper Towel (or something to dry the inside of the juice carton out with)x
- Printable Wallet Pattern (I got the pattern for this from http://static.spoonful.com/sites/default/files/CartonWallet.pdf - you can download and print it off from there.)
- Pen (optional)
- Sharp Scissors
- X-acto Knife
- Clear Tape
Step 1: Cut the juice carton to look like this:
And dry out the inside.
Step 2: Tape the pattern to the inside of the juice carton. The grey circle is supposed to line up with where the spout is on the carton. Trace the circle on the bottom of the pattern onto the carton.
Step 3: Cut out the pattern on the carton. Remove all the tape on the carton. Copy the lines on the pattern onto the carton.
Step 4: Fold along all the lines on the carton. For the lines on the sides, do an accordion fold. Cut out the circle that you traced.
Step 5: Tuck the folded sides in while bringing the hole on the bottom over the spout. Screw on the cap and you're finished!
(One day I plan to paint them)
Ta-da! All done!
