Milk Carton Wallet

I am so thrilled to discover may be well known to many but new and exciting for me web site
Disney Family Fun. Their "Craft" section filled with great recyclable projects and they, as you may noticed by now, are my passion lately. I am amazed at how much you can do with things that I have never thought could be reused in such a creative way. Here is one example: Milk Carton Wallet and here is my attempt to do the same:)

Step 1
Get ready. Get a carton you would like to use

Step 2. Cut it open and lay flat


Step 3. Trace the template on the outside using Sharpie and trace all the doted elements on the inside using ballpoint pen to get good imprints on the box



Step 4. Cut out along the traced lines and fold it according to all doted lines


Step 5. Here is your wallet


It works!!!!

Here is a link where you can even watch a video on how to make this:


Think about how much fun would it be for kids: it is perfect to store little treasures,



and how many boxes will be recycled! I think it can make such a cute gift and it could be embellished in so many ways (decoupage is the first thing that comes to my mind)!
Thanks Disney Family Fun!
