Cardboard play clock


Hello crafters,

Here I am again with my super easy learning DIY toy for learners.  

Thing you need:

1- Any piece of cardboard
2- Craft knife
3- Colour papers or paint
4- Empty lids ( I have used milk can lids)
5- Self adhesive numbers
6- Marker or pen
7- split pin
8-  I used duct tape to cover the frame ( optional)

As you can see it is super duper easy DIY, all you have do is sticking and cutting.
Use the lids to make a circle and then cut it with the help of craft knife.
Put the numbers on the lids.
Mark the "to" and "past".
Put the needles with the help of split pin.

BINGO! 

Your Play DIY clock is ready :-) .

A very easy cheap and organised way to store shoes- Cardboard Shoe rack

       
Hello crafters,

When you live in small house it's a task to arrange your things in place. I love to buy different type of shoes and for me, the biggest task is to arrange shoes,

Not only for shoes, if you live in small apartment building or even a normal family home you just won't escape from the storage problem. Many stores have lot of items that can give you help with the storage issue, but most of the items involves buying expensive storage items that probably might not need and wont help you much. In order to counter that I made few of  other sleek, foldable and strong cardboard items such as Spiderman table for spiderman fan, Giant cardboard almirah with cubboards, all purpose shelfs, little foldable table and many more


So, here I am back again with spacious cardboard shoe rack, which is proved to be a lovely house of 35 shoes, with lots of attachments, adjustable spaces and doors. It is very sleek shoe rack with 5 top shelf covered with doors with 10 sections. 2 shelfs to put socks in and lower shelfs with customised soaks for wellington. 

Things I used:-

1) lots of cardboards
2) Glue/ Glue gun
3) Craft knife
4) Paper/duct tape to decorate
5) Drawer magnets
6) cable tie






5 of these cardboard sheets, please note each sheet is made out of 3 layers of cardboards to give it a strength.
