DIY: fabric covered box

As you may have already noticed I'm in love with this spectacular stickly little thing - double sided tape! It comes in so handy when I want do decorate something. And I really enjoy decorating boxes, which store tiny things of mine. This morning I saw my scraps just laying in the corner totally abandoned and came up with an idea to get them a new life. So, a fabric covered box it is! I hope you have some unused scraps too! :)


Stick the double sided tape on the bottom of the box.


Stick it on the fabric.


Measure how much of the fabric you're gonna need for the sides and how much you wanna cut off.


Here's what you get after the cutting.


Now cut the corners out. Make sure to leave the fabric a bit wider than the box side actually is. So that the width 2 is slightly wider than the width 1.


Put some tape.


And stick the fabric on the box.


Outside and inside.


Repeat the step to all the four sides. Just like that.


Now that you have half of the box covered in fabric you can choose weather to leave it that way or to cover the second part too. That's what I did.


And here's what I got! :)


I can now store my beads in a beautiful fabric covered box! 

I hope you enjoyed the tutorial and have a splendid weekend! :)

Saying goodbye

It's been a great journey and an unforgettable experience but things change and finally come to an end, no matter how good they were.

Closing the blog would be just too harsh so I've decided to put Sheepy Me for sale and start searching for a person that would like to continue doing the work that I've started.
