In this craft we are going to do a drawer for furniture niches or for shelves. It is very nice, it is very simple to do and it helps to keep our things stored.
Do you want to see how to do it?
Materials that we will need to make our drawer
- Una carton box of a suitable size in the length if we are going to use our drawer for a specific hole. The height can be cut without problem.
- Rope gross
- Foil felt
- Glue gun
- Scissors and cutter
Hands on craft
- The first is measure the height of the hole of the furniture or shelf. We pass that measure to our box cardboard and we mark the four sides with a line.
- We cut the flaps of the box and then we went to cut the line with the cutter that we have marked. To get a straight cut we can help ourselves with a ruler or a straight piece of cardboard.
- On the side that will be in front we will make an opening that will serve as a handle.
- We glue the piece of felt on the bottomThis will help protect the furniture from friction. We will leave an extra on the felt to glue it on the sides as flaps and increase the grip of the felt sheet.
- Let's take the two flaps of the box from the part that we have left aside. We will glue the two flaps and wrap them with a paper that we like. We reserve this piece for later. We cover the inside from the box of the same paper, except the base. In my case I have used a rubber, securing it with white glue. It is important to fold a little of the paper at the top edges and also in the area of the handle. To finish the interior, we put the piece made with the flaps at the bottom.
- Once the white glue is well dried, we will go winding the rope from the bottom to the top. We will fix the rope with hot silicone. When we reach the height of the handle we will cut the rope and fix it well. So that it is well finished, we will make sure that it is well fixed when cutting where the handle but with care that there is no visible silicone.
And ready!
I hope you cheer up and do this craft.
