HOW TO MAKE A DESKTOP CADDIE

Today Jessica and I decided to make something  using some of the recycled items that we always have stored in boxes. And finally we have put it into a tutorial.

For this project you will need.

3 Different sized tin cans or other containers
 piece of strong cardboard
marker and pencil
ruler and scissors
hot glue gun
piece of pretty paper
and enough Ric rack or ribbon to go around all 3 cans twice

1. Place cans on the cardboard in a way so they look functional and pleasing to the eye.
2. Trace around the cans.
3. Cut out the shape that you ended up with after tracing around your cans.

4.   This will be your caddie base.

5. Next cut your pretty paper to fit your tin cans.
6.Using a hot glue gun adhere the paper to the can, do this with each of the cans.

7. Now glue the Ric rack or ribbon around each of the cans.

8. When you have done this hot glue gun the cans to the cardboard base that you cut out earlier.  


9. When this is done glue some ribbon all around the base of the caddie to tidy up the edges.


That's all there is to it.
The best thing is the look on Jessica's face.

Till next time guys.
