Make your own movie box!



This is such a cool gift for a friend or more likely a kid would love it! Otherwise you can just try it on your own if you like..but I made it for fun, 'cz I love crafts! hehe (: You can use this to make with your favorite movies!

So to get started I was staring at those CD covers that used to come before the DVD's ruled? I was actually wondering what I should do with those covers because it even takes up my space! 

What you need :

- 6 CD covers of your faviourite movies

- Siccors, Glue (multibond?)


How to get started :

1) Take the covers and take the CD out. Then as you see, a white strap opens the CD right? All you have to do is, take each CD cover and break those parts of each side of the covers.


2) Next take four covers and glue the white parts which are on the sides of the covers, onto each cover's inside. (The purpose of glueing this to the inside is, that it would look neater)

REMEMBER : Make sure you paste these covers to the right side down. (As in, the pictures of the covers should be pasted  horizontally correct, so you can see them properly as proper images when you're turning the box) 

3) You get a four walled box. Now take another cover you want to put down, and paste the four white spaces to the INSIDE of the four walled box. So then the cover image should appear nicely at the under of the box.

4) Next, take your last cover, and paste like you did before for the under one. This is very annoying because sometimes it might come out. But please be careful, it could break down..You have to work with it gently. (:

That's it!
Of you want a different idea so the box would open the lid... Try redoing the last step with a modification. 

4) You can paste one part of the white area to one of the four walls.. and keep. The other opened white parts could act as the closing lid of the box. Those white parts should be pressed inside, if you want to close it. (:

This is again just an idea... From ideas, you can gain more ideas to modify mine & create something new.

So please try mine!! & do try something new! (:
