Piggy Bank
-
How do you make it?
- Cut off the bottom one-third of the whole bottle.
- Cut the card/hard paper/foam board in any shape you want as long as it's a bit bigger than the cut-off bottle. You can decorate your shape too.
- Glue/tape the bottle on your shape, and let it dry. Glue it on the face that you haven't decorated.
- Use your cutter/scissors and cut a 3 cm line on the middle of your cut-out card/hard paper/foam board.
- Add your coins in and you're done!

Pencil-Case
Materials

-
Glue gun/Stapler/Masking Tape (optional, recommended)
How do you make it?
- Cut out the bottom one-third of the whole first bottle.
- Measure the length of the cut-out part of the first bottle, then draw a line to the second bottle of the first bottle's length.
- Measure 3 cm more and draw a line there to the second bottle.
- Measure 4 cm and add that to the bottle. For this part, don't draw a line yet. Measure a length of 2 cm wide, and then mark on the bottle a small rectangle of 2 cm wide, and 4 cm tall.
- According to your measurements, cut out your second bottle.
- For the small rectangle, which should be jutting out a bit, fold it outwards in half, which leaves to rectangle to become a small square, 2 cm wide and tall.
- Flip over the second cut-out bottle, and set it on top of the first bottle. The two bottles should overlap nicely.
- This step is optional, but I recommend it. You can use glue gun/stapler/masking tape or anything of the sort to fix tight the back of the two bottles, so the cover won't fall out, and your stationery would stay safe.
- You can decorate your pencil-case, and put some stationery in it, and you're complete!

Stationery Sorter Box
-
Purpose
To create a stationery sorter where you could put in stationery to their own small cubicle, and never get muddled with your stationery anymore!
How do you make it?
- Clear your box. You could cut around the sides of the cover, but leave one side sticking to your box, so the cover could stay.
- Cut out some holes from your box cover. If you have six different kinds of stationery, cut out six holes, if you have 5, cut out five holes etc...
- You might wish to decorate your box a little bit.
- Slip your stationery in! If you have trouble taking out the stationery, just open your box cover.
Book Box

-
How do you make it?
- Decorate your shoe box and your shoe box cover (if you want it to look nice).
- When you're done, slip the cover vertically into the box, and don't stick the cover down, so that you can slide it around. Make any changes to your decorations, box, or cover if needed.
- Slip your books in and you're ready! You can put your books in both sides!
