Instructions

    Print out the template, the big mailbox is found on page 1 of the pdf. Cut out the template and trace it on to the cardboard.

    To make the cardboard easier to fold, score the cardboard with a thin but blunt object. We have used a paper clip and we score all the lines on what is going to be the outside of the mailbox. Do not use sharp objects, the cardboard be scored, not scratched.

    When the paint is dry, gently fold all edges and glue them together.

    The big mailbox is ready to use. The small mailboxes, found on page 2 of the pdf, are made of heavy paper and a good size for a dolls house.
