With a few simple boxes of handkerchiefs we can make some fun shoes for the smallest of the house to dress up. With a few simple steps we can do the shape of dinosaurs' feet, You just have to cover the sides of the box with pieces of cardboard. Then we will make the shape of the nails and finally we will decorate it with golden stickers. This craft is ideal for children between the ages of 3 and 7 to dress up.
The materials I have used for the shoes:
- Two empty tissue boxes
- A large cardboard of a green shade
- Two pieces of green cardboard of a different tone from the previous one
- Small round and gold colored stickers
- Hot silicone and her gun
- Ruler
- Pencil
You can see this craft step by step in the following video:
First step:
We start by tracing the shapes of all the parts or sides of the box. For this we place one of the sides on top of the first large card and with the pencil we go drawing its contours. We will have to make two of each side, because we are going to make two shoes.
Second step:
We will trace the side of the top. We will not do it from the bottom part because it will not be seen. Then we will have to make the opening at the top of the box and they can put their feet in. To do this we place the template on top and little by little we are drawing the shape, looking and lifting the cardboard to orient ourselves much better.
Third step:
We cut out all the templates that we have prepared from the sides, including the top with its opening. We start by pasting each piece on its corresponding side and with the help of the hot silicone. You have to be quick by adding the silicone and gluing the cards, as it dries very quickly.
Fourth step:
In the rest of the green cards we are going to make nail shapes. We measure the width of the box where they will be placed. What gives us the measure we divide by the three nails that are going to be placed. We put that measurement on the cardboard by making two nails of the same color. We will also make another four on the other cardboard of the different shade of green. At the bottom of each triangle that we draw we will leave a quadrangular part so we can fold it and stick it on the box.
Fifth step:
We fold the quadrangular part and we will stick one of the parts in the box. We fold it forward again and fix it with another bit of silicone.
Step Six:
Finally we decorate all the sides of the box with the round and gold stickers.
