Popsicle Stick Jewelry Box

This is the second to the last project for this month. I will make a Jewelry Box out of Popsicle Sticks

To start, we need popsicle sticks and Glue sticks

We also need a material that is strong enough for our base. Here we used a vinyl tile.

We will be making an Octagon shape box. So we lay out the sticks octagonally on the vinyl tile and cut the excess from the tile.

Continue to glue the sticks until you have reached your desired height. Set it aside first.

For the cover... layout the sticks again octagonally but this time, without the vinyl tile.

glue the Sticks together and form a pyramid.

Should look something like this...

Cover the remaining open space and add anything on the top to serve as the handle. Here we make use of heart shaped gem.

Cut a small piece of carton and fold it into half.

Glue it between the cover and the box.

(on the inner view)

Add some details... put lace on the side to make it more appealing.

The popsicle sticks will automatically resembles leaf shape when doing a pyramid style

There you go... A Popsicle Stick Jewelry Box.

Popsicle Stick Toy Train

Finally, we went down to our last project for this month. Today, we will make Popsicle Stick Toy Train.

To start, we need different color craft sticks, laces, Styrofoam, and glue.

Layout the stick...

Glue a pair of stick on the side (take note! you have to keep the two sticks at least 3-5 millimeters away from each other.

Do the same thing on the other side (done with the base)

For the walls, make it at least 3 popsicle stick high...

Make 2 pairs of walls; the long one and the short one

Usging glue gun, start gluing the walls to our base.

Should be something like this!

For the wheels, cut a circle from the Styrofoam and put a lace around it. make four wheels!

Now connect each wheels using a stick.

Place the stick on the mini space that we left awhile ago at the bottom part of our base

lock the wheels using small pieces of craft sticks

Get a thin copper wire and twist it using a plier

The first copper wire should be twisted like this and should be places at the back of our train

The other one should be twisted like this (forming a hook) and should be placed at the front.

Should have something like this! (done with one of the compartments)

Make as many as you want and make it more colorful too!

For the head of our train... just put 4 popsicle sticks in an upright position in each corner.

Make the roof and the front cover..

Add some details and there you go! A Popsicle Stick Toy Train

We placed our Santa Elves and the Gift Box Christmas Tree Hanging Decor

Milzon and his Playmate Kurt

Tsoo! Tsooo! Time to play!

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.
