With my online shop I go through rolls of tape & I have been keeping the cardboard centres. So I decided to put them to good use & make a container for my daughter’s earrings.
What you need to make a recycled earring container:
- Cardboard centre from a roll of tape
- Double-sided tape
- Glue that dries clear
- Scraps of Paper
- Chipboard
- Embellishments – I used the chipboard shoe, flowers & ribbon
Step 1
Paint the centre of the cardboard roll & leave to dry.
Step 2
Fpr the base you are going to need to cut a circle from the chipboard slightly bigger that the cardboard roll.
Step 3
Cover the base with paper using double-sided tape.
Step 4
Now cover the outside of the cardboard roll with paper. You will need to measure the width of the cardboard roll and then cut a strip the same width. Then use double-sided tape to cover the roll.
Step 5
Now cover the bottom with clear drying glue & stick it down in the centre of the base. Use an ear bud to remove excess glue.
Step 6
Now embellish – I used a chipboard shoe & stuck it down where my paper is joined. Then I added some ribbon & flowers.
Step 7
Your recycled cardboard roll container is now complete and ready for use!
