Note Box Using Recycled Paper

A small metal box.I recently found this cutie at a thrift store for .25. I loved how it looked like a an office supply box, even down to the little label spot on the front! But it was an odd size and shape.

I print on the backs of a lot of paper, saving trees and all. So, I thought why not custom cut the paper to the shape and keep it by where I charge the phone?

So I measured it, made a master and cut up some just to show you how it was done. It's one of those projects for when I am watching tv or waiting for something to cook.

You can do the same with a square box or any container where you just need to cut your own paper. I hope you like it.
