Storage Gift Box

This project was actually featured AT Merryn's Crafty Crafted site a long long time ago but i failed to feature the step by step illustration here in my blog.

We're making a Storage Gift Box out of Popsicle Sticks. To start, we need popsicle sticks, laces, cutter, paint and glue.

Just layout the popsicle sticks like this

Cut both tips of each craft sticks using cutter.

Then attach them all using a pair popsicle sticks placed horizontally on top of the craft sticks

Make four.

Glue each corner and form a box.

Put a Popsicle at the bottom part. This will hold our base.

Now place the base

Make a cover

paint the box and add some details

Tadah! You can make one as your Valentine's day gift too!

Toy Robot

Finally, we head down to our last project for this month. Tadah! It's a Toy Robot and Milzon named him Max.

To start, we need 2 empty boxes, 4 styro cups, 2 ice cream plastic cups, 2 bottle caps, 2 medicine bottle caps, copper wire, popsicle stick, rectangular plastic container, 4 tanzans, poster paints.

Paint the boxes first.

Set aside the boxes and get the 4 tanzans. Make a hole in each tanzan.

Insert the copper wire and lock it.

Then put it inside the styro box. The other end of the copper wire should be placed outside. Since this is a styro, it would be easy to make a hole out of it but just do it carefully.

Then insert the copper wire on the side of the huge box.

Then lock it inside the box using another tanzan.

Do the same procedure on the other arm.

Flip it up and glue the legs .

Should look like this.

Now attach the head.(the smaller box)

Paint the rectangular container with white poster paint.

Then paint the side with blue.

Attach it on the mid part.

Paint the arms and legs.

Place the other details.

Tadah! We're done!

Arms are movable.

Max will be included on my upcoming new Our Little Corners header. Watch out for it.

How To Make Recycled Toy Race Car

Recycling is good and something that we must encouraged to our kids. Today we are sharing you how to make a Toy Car out of different used materials. Instead of throwing them, why not making them more useful right?

To Start our project , we need the following

• Disposable Caps
• Huge Straw (2 pcs)
• Cardboard (used)
• White Bond Paper 
• A pair of barbecue stick
• Laces
• Glue gun and glue sticks
• Masking tape

Outline four Circles on the cardboard using the disposable cap

Cut them and set them aside first.

.

Create a hole at the side of the disposable cap making it possible for our straw to pass through from one side to another

Do the same thing to the other cap

Connect the mouth of the two caps using a masking tape

Cover it with a white card board and serve it as your car's chasis

Make your own design for your race car and after doing so, set it aside first.

Get the cardboard circles you cut awhile ago. And now using a stick, create a hole at the center of each circled card board

Do the same thing with other circles. Using the glue gun, put the lace around the circle.

 Do the same thing with other three and this will serve as our wheels.

Connect the wheels using a barbeque sticks and lock them the tape. Just put the stick inside the straw and connect the wheels on both sides.

Tadah! You got a Toy Race Car

Enjoy!!!
