Description

Instructions

  1. Small 102944 2f2014 07 02 130125 dsc 0248

    Measure the height and width of each face.

  2. Small 102944 2f2014 07 02 130129 dsc 0250

    Cut out five black sheets corresponding to the heights and widths from Step 1.

  3. Small 102944 2f2014 07 02 130204 dsc 0254

    Carefully stick the black sheets onto all the faces using double sided tape, except for the top face.

  4. Small 102944 2f2014 07 02 130215 dsc 0263

    Align the last black sheet on the top face and flip the box upside down. Trace the opening onto the black sheet.

  5. Small 102944 2f2014 07 02 130224 dsc 0264

    Cut out the opening. Carefully stick the black sheet onto the top face using double sided tape.

  6. Small 102944 2f2014 07 02 130334 dsc 0267

    Minus 2cm from the width obtained in Step 1. Divide by 3. This will be the height and width of your coloured squares. Cut out 45 squares (there should not be more than 9 of the same colour). [For example, the width of my box was 13cm. ( 13cm - 2cm ) / 3 = 3.67 cm. I cut coloured squares that were 3.6cm x 3.6cm.]

  7. Small 102944 2f2014 07 02 130343 dsc 0269

    Space 9 squares evenly on each face. Carefully Stick them on using double sided tape.

  8. Small 102944 2f2014 07 02 130438 dsc 0272%2b2

    For the top face, cut your coloured squares to fit around the opening before sticking.
