Inspired by Khadija's project, I created this rotatable layered storage box.
Interested? Well, then scroll down for the step by step instruction...
Step 1 - Cut the tube into layers.
I have mine in 3cm, 3.5cm, 4cm, 5cm and the bottom is about 6cm
Step 2 - Make a base for each rings (except the bottom one) out of cardboard.
Step 3 - Glue the base on all the ring.
and wrap them with any paper as you wish.
I used some pages from the old yellow page.
Step 4 - Cut straws according to the height of each layer.
Step 5 - Wrap the straw with the same wrapper and glue it
onto the layer.
Step 6 - Use a chopstick...balloon stick..I used a part of a broken hanger here
and slide it into all the little straw tube you have glue onto the side of the tube.
There you have it! A rotatable layered storage box...
Step 7 - Decorate as you prefer.
I cut of some brown paper for labeling purpose...
but yet to decide should I use it as a jewellery box or for my sewing stuffs...
What do you think? How would you make use of this layered box?

ReplyDeleteThis is so creative. I have used Pringle tubes as Christmas Candle holders, with a small glass candle holder sitting in the top of a smaller Pringle's tube, after decorating the tube with Christmas wrapping paper and embellishments.Just loved your idea though.

ReplyDeleteDear, in #6..you've create the little tube and stick it onto the outside ring of the Pringles tube...right. now in #7...you just need some long stick or skewer to hold those little tubes together so that the Pringles tube can be rotate. If you still miss this...be patient...another easier version of tutorial is coming right up...check up my latest post later!
