Mini Bookshelf

I had lot of empty boxes and was thinking of throwing them when i thought why not try and turn them into something useful.
This particular box was appropriate for a mini bookshelf or a storage drawer.
 
You need the following items:
-An empty box
-Cardboard pieces
-A glue gun
-Pipecleaner
 
 1. Take the empty box and cut out the top flap. If you want an open shelf cut out all the flaps. I wanted to make a door so i cut only the top flap.


2. Take 3 cardboard pieces. The first one should be equal to the length of the box. The other two should be half the height of the box.


3. Hot glue the two cardboard pieces on each lower end of the box across the width. Then hot glue the last cardboard piece across the length in the middle and above the two cardboard pieces. This will create a shelf.


4. If you want more shelves just add more cardboard pieces along the height of the box.

I wanted a door so i did not cut the other two flaps. I made a hook using pipecleaners to close the door.
 
Your mini bookshelf is ready.





I did not have any decorative papers. But to make it look better wrap it in gift wrapping or decorative paper.
