Tetra Brick Wallet

A wallet made from a large tetra brick
< Image 1 of 2 >

I freind of a friend told her how to make this and she though me, now i'm teaching you!.
As usual, i took a bunch of pictures to compensate my lame instructions.

This is a very basic wallet, you can go crazy and add your own touches.

PS: It can also be covered in paper instead of fabric, but you might have to use transparent plastic as well.

Open the box and lay it flat. Cut the upper part and the sides and front (or bag, it's the same)of the botton. Leave the back of the button to make the flat. Now fold the sides inside.
Place it over a piece of fabric, like in the picture and ...
cut the fabric like this

see?
Lay the box flat again and guel the fabric on the back side. Glue the extra fabric on the flat in.

push sides in again.
fold the box in half, just the box part, unfold and glue the inner edges together.
so you have this
cover the edge with some bias tape of duct tape.
take a lil piece of velcro and glue to the flat and front part of the wallet,so it stay closed. (Sorry, no pic)

And you're done!

Good Idea!

If this doesn't sound completely stupid, what is a tetra brick?
