Up cycling the Apple products boxes

Hi crafters!

My family are big fun of Apple products. iPhone, Mac book, iPads….and I have kept all the Apple products boxes …

Those boxes are so strong and so beautiful to throw away. But never come up the ideas to use them.

today, finally I up remake the one iPhone box into a pen tray.

i grabbed some scrap of clothes from patchwork pile. Glued those clothe with Elmer’s school glue to the box.

it is surprisingly easy to glue the clothes onto the box. This cotton clothe print design is “ forest retreat”.

I tacked the corner like wrapping the gifts.

for inside of the box, I used Japanese masking wide tape( Washi tape wide type) . Washi tape is easy to undo or adjust the placement . Nicely hide the edge of the cloth.

this William morris design Washi tape is available in 100yen shop in Japan.(Currently 70cents value shop)

the size of iPhone SE box lid is perfect for the BIC pen.

now I am very happy to find the usage of the iPhone boxes!
