-
For this you will need a tube map (grab one for free from any underground station) and the original Oyster card wallet that it came with to make the template, or you can just wing it.
-
Draw around the wallet on to card.
-
Cut out the card template.
-
Trace around the template on to the tube map and on to some paper, which will line your wallet.
-
You should end up with two pieces that look like this.
-
Stick the map and paper together with spray adhesive.
-
Cut two strips of clear vinyl, big enough to cover the wallet and two more strips which are half as wide as the wallet.
-
Place the map in between the two sheets of vinyl and place the two smaller squares at either side, these will hold the cards.
-
Sew around the outside.
-
Cut around the wallet, trimming off any excess vinyl.
-
Pop your oyster card in to make sure it fits.
-
And your ready to go. Happy travels!
