Day 124 - DIY important documents storage

I've so far only made one of these, there is another box waiting to be transformed and a fresh box of cereal waiting to be eaten and then transformed. This is a very easy project and is far better than wasting money in Ikea on wooden ones. I marked my lines on the box and just folded the excess in to give it a bit of extra strength. After taping the flaps in place I began to wrap my box in paper. To get the inside neat I cut out panels the same shape, wrapped them first then stuck them in with double sided tape, this adds even more strength to the walls and has a finished look. I may try to line the polka dots up next time, but that seems rather unnecessary.
