Hiya from a.,
Just a little bit ago a few of the always amazing FLBs sent me a small Christmas box. It was a standard short rectangle UPS box, and after holding awesomeness it was able to serve the purpose of drying stand for the spray painted basket. Recycling wasn't going to be here for a few more days so I decided to play a little. I grabbed scissors, glue, and fabric and played the good old game of 'I wonder if'
My plans actually worked and here are the results:
I cut off the four top pieces to make a level, open, box and the cut those tops to the same height as the box. I then cut them to various sizes to make dividers (the long divider is the long top piece, it didn't need any cutting down). I covered the interior, sides, and dividers with glue and put down some pink corduroy fabric that I had in my stash.
The pink goes over the top where it meets a crocheted sleeve. This is a double stranded chunky yarn worked with a P hook so it went pretty quick. I made it tight so that you don't see any of the cardboard of the UPS box, but also to add a tiny bit of extra structural integrity.
I had wanted to organize my sewing area a little better and now I have thanks to a UPS and an afternoon of playing.
see you space cowboy....
