My DIY Magazine Holder

I did a bit of crafting the other day, my laundry powder box turned magazine holders. Here's how I did it.

First I took the empty box and taped the top shut.

Then I marked out the shape of the magazine holder on the box ready to cut out with a craft knife. This shape will cut the box in half, creating two symmetrical halves.


This is what you end up with - two magazine holders, ready to decorate.
 I decorated them with some old paint swatches by gluing them on and trimming them to size.
To finish them off, I painted the insides in yellow from an old paint test pot. Total cost $0.00. The best part was my husband asked me where I'd bought them and was obviously quite surprised when I said I'd made them 😀
